Thank you so much for reading!

I read Haunted Mediation and loved it! It's a serial novella and this is the book where the main characters move from unexpected friends to something more. I loved the theme of Halloween and the sense of community. It is a feel-good queer romance that is a bit of sunshine. @booksky.club

I read an ARC of Brad & Finn, written by @authordcemerson.bsky.social, part of the Gomillion High Reunion series and loved it! It is a gentle low angst well written romance with fun lovable queer characters. I really needed this book during these stressful times. Preorder it, it drops 09/16/2025.

Have you ever wondered how my books all fit together?

Check out my Not So Normative series, which all revolves around the Rainbow Bean Cafe! Start with They Were Roommates where the cafe is opened!

You can then follow James and Leon in the Conflict Mediation spin-off novella series.

This pride month I’m going to highlight as many books as I can with different queer and genderqueer rep.

I’m going to start with my books!

I try to focus on different rep, backgrounds, and themes in every book I write. This ranges from nonbinary and trans to polyamorous and aromantic.

D.C. Emerson🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @authordcemerson.bsky.social · May 15

Words cannot describe how much this means to me. All I’ve ever wanted to do is make at least one other person out there feel seen and understood by my books, and I hope this means that I am succeeding in doing that!

This story demonstrated healthy communication & how people can find commonalities when they open up. My only complaint is that I want more

What an incredible and powerful story! It spoke volumes about the power of the beauty industry, the desire to fit in, and complicated family ties
