Hi all!
          
          No publish date on That Distant Dream just yet (and I still have to write the sequel...thank you covid for sucking away my creativity), but I have a novella releasing from NineStar Press on August 17th!

That Distant Dream is going to be published by NineStar Press!
          
          And it's going to be a trilogy. Tentative publication date for book 1 is set for June-August 2020. More to follow!
          
          Thank you all for your support, well-wishing and love for TDD. Without you all, I would never have had the confidence to try to publish it, much less persevere.
          
          A special shout out to @jagermeanshunter, @meganrbooks, @eshurricane, @gmtschuilling, @paintpuddles, @rather_be_a_unicorn and everyone at the Rebel Elite Book Club. You are the best <3
          
          Happy Holidays,

That’s so great! From what I’ve read That Distant Dream is such a good book. I’d definitely buy it if you’d published it

@tigerlover3333 Thank you!
            
            I actually just finished editing Part I of TDD (Part II is going to be another book, hopefully), and am subbing it out to different small presses. Then I'm thinking of maybe trying to get an agent? I'd love to see it get published.

Hey all!
          
          I've taken down Recipe for a Love Spell, but for GREAT NEWS!
          
          It's been accepted into the Moonlight Anthology, edited by Bones McKay. Here're the Kickstarter details (the campaign has ended successfully!): https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mckayandgray/moonlight-a-queer-werewolf-anthology
          
          I'm so happy to be able to see Vik and Rhia in print! 
          
          Thank you for all of your support, love and joy in this short story <3

Hey folks,
          
          Long time no chat :)
          
          I recently entered a new short story, "Space Oddity" into @ScienceFiction's Countdown Major Tom flash fiction contest.
          
          Check it out if you're interested in lesbians in space set to David Bowie's Space Oddity.

Hey folks,
          
          My mental health and general life stuff has been going into a little downward spiral for the past couple months, so I'm stepping away from Wattpad for a while (I've kinda already been on a semi-hiatus the past several months anyway) to focus more on health stuff, writing and life.
          
          Thank you for all your support over the past year and some. Happy writing to all of you <3

In celebration of Galentine's Day (which is totally a thing and is now for lesbians sorry straight girls I don't make the rules), I just published the sequel to Recipe for a Love Spell—it's called An Everlasting Love Spell.
          
          Witches. Werewolves. Lesbians. Important Titanic discussions.
          
          Check it out here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/178575198-an-everlasting-love-spell

@Di_Rossi LOL it's a terrible thing and I'm making it better by making it for queer women only

@djhowty  Oh no, and here I thought "Christina Street Day" was just plain ignorant and dumb. Galentine's Day? Jesus Christ! (Oh, excuse me, "Jessica Christa"!) *shakes head*
