So to everyone who has ever picked up a copy of this book, and to everyone who loves these nerds as much as I do, thank you from the bottom of my heart 💜

Four years ago today I published the book that I had no idea would change my life. Now, four bestsellers, some viral videos, and a whole lot of work later, I'm living my dream of being a full time writer. All because I took some good advice and published a book I though no one would ever read.

I am writing two characters playing anal bead tug-o-war, because even if this series is epic fantasy, it is still Sex Wizards.

How to get a career in art.

1) Be hyper-obbessive about working and push yourself past the point of burnout.
2) Get lucky.

It's a combo of the two or sometimes just one.

This is so lovely, thank you so much! I'm so thrilled to be mentioned in this article! 💜

When I was (lovingly) bullied into self pubbing a spicy, queer fantasy series, I never imagined I'd be offered representation, but that's exactly what @keiralekseii.bsky.social at Azantian did. I can't wait to work with her to make even more queer ✨magic✨

It's finally happened. After 5+ years writing this series, I finally had a Sex Wizards dream.

AND IT WASN'T EVEN SEXY

Don't know what to expect from the Sex Wizards series? Well, I don't know if this will help or just confuse you more, but maybe you'll want to pick up Initiation all the same.

Thank you to the organizers, volunteers, authors, vendors, and attendees who made this weekend absolutely AMAZING!! I've had so many wonderful conversations, met so many amazing people, and am heading back to Colorado with my queer little heart so full.

This song is many things but feel-good isn't one of them.
