What makes for good lesbian romance? WEREWOLVES, duh. @sadhbhgirl.bsky.social joined me for a romp through her new novel "The Wolf Bane." We talk the healing power of dark humor, researching werewolves, crafting character studies, and of course, lesbians!

"Transsexuality is bourgeois" reflects the common belief that medicine, technology, and any improvements to quality of life are owed to capitalism. The reality is that capitalism holds these improvements hostage for the sake of wealth.

Well I don't go for designer items, so not having access to name-brand designer vaginas is not a problem for me. Store-brand is good for me!

Have you pre-ordered this yet?

I did last night 🥳

As much as I hesitate to recommend Amazon as a book buying platform anymore, it was cool to watch a single preorder jump me from ~200th in my best category to ~70th. If I ask nicely and you're already having to order from there, please consider getting my novella too? www.amazon.com/dp/B0FTWJ89VC

We honor the legacy of Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, a fierce protector of our collective freedom. Our hearts are with her loved ones and all who carry her vision forward.

"We will honor Miss Major forever." - @imarajones.bsky.social

An illustration of Miss Major surrounded by candles with blue background and a famous quote of hers written in gold. The quote reads“I don’t need their permission to exist; I exist in spite of them. I want you to train and teach and love on and create families within my community and gender non-conforming people, so that we can understand that we have a culture, we have a history, we have a reason to be here. We have a purpose. We’re entitled to be loved, and seek happiness, and share that with the people that we care about.” -Miss Major Griffin-Gracy

I have this fantasy in my head that I will have like a solid block of time to sit down and post reviews of the many lovely books I have read.

But I am realizing I need to, uh, maybe just write a few a day? But my brain is like, no, one thing at a time, and a lot of it at once or NOTHING.

My view on this cold & gloomy day. This here’s writin’ weather.

Photo of a view out a window. The view looks out to nearby mountains across a canyon. The landscape is mostly open, with scattered junipers and gray pine among high desert scrub. There are dark clouds in the sky. The inside of the window is hung with many sun catchers and prisms

In case you’re on the fence about pre-ordering:

"What now?" I asked finally when fae turned to grab faer jacket.
• hovered faer hand
over the jacket for a beat.
"Nothing," fae said quietly, picking it up. Fae turned to face me solemnly. "We both know this was a mistake."
I shrugged. "I make nothing but mistakes,
• At least this one felt good for a little while."

So much for the 48 hour respite. It’s my son’s birthday and my wife’s FMLA check didn’t come in so I have two hours to come up with $150.00 to keep our room (by 1100 hours PST)and another 50 to get his birthday cake (by 1330 hours PST)and dinner by 1600hours. Was assured that check would be there!😵
