My favorite coffee place was having technical issues this morning and I want to know why God chose to smite me on this Friday in particular.
Some exciting (I hope) info dropping on #ChaseConnorBooks on Saturday…
Stop telling gay men how to feel about books about gay men especially those written by people who are not gay men. For reference: A Little Life.
“Go eat a dick!” makes an argument between two married gay men end differently than it would in other situations.
A grieving immigrant, a stolen coat, a mysterious American, one night in Montreal, and a simple act of kindness that will change a life forever. THE WARMTH OF OUR CLOSEST STAR (the sequel) out now! #LGBTQIA #LitFic #mmromance #audiobooks #NewAdult

If you have a minor car accident, take it to the body shop, and the workers says, “DAMN! when he sees it, that’s good, right?
That one twink (who doesn't know-or bother to learn-anything about LGBTQIA+ history) on the internet who "gave you permission" to use the word "f*g," when you yourself are not a gay man, lied to you. You will get your shit rocked out in these streets.

I really wish my fellow gays would stop this.
Not at all. It just speaks to my level of drama. 🤣
Everyone always assumes I’m straight. Until I get mad and say something like, “Where’s my pocketbook!? I’m leaving!!”

I don’t have a pocketbook.
Having a partner who is not only supportive, but enthusiastic, about your work is the best feeling in the world. These partners will also ask, “When can I read it?!?” after you’ve written 3 *rough* chapters. It’s not okay to hoof them in the crotch. Be grateful and patient.
Honestly, I hate spiders. But I’ve gotten more “all life is precious” as I’ve gotten older. 🤣
There's nothing better than starting a new novel and thinking "Oh, yeah. This is the shit. This is why I write." as your fingers fly over the keys.
Me: *carrying a spider to the backdoor on a piece of cardboard* I know it’s nice inside little guy, but outside is your home. Don’t come back. I might not be the one to find you next time.

Husband: (from the other room) Are you saving bugs from their rightful punishment again?!?
Jacob Michaels, er, Rob Wagner, is tired of Hollywood. He’s come home to his Oma’s house in Ohio to rest, relax, and recover. Oma’s house isn’t quite as he remembered, but then again, can he trust his memories? #LGBTQIA #paranormalromance

The first rule of The First Wives' Club is we talk openly and loudly about the patriarchy, how it has ruined the lives of everyone but straight white men, and how it needs to be dismantled any way possible.
The only flaw in The First Wives’ Club is that Stockard Channing isn’t in it more.
Me: (out with my friend, getting our hair cut) *talking to stylist* Which Chinese place is best? Which one has the very best food?

Stylist: (who I know well) Word on these streets is you’ll eat anything.

My Friend: (from across the salon) HE GOT YO’ ASS!
I got up and showered today and now people are expecting things of me. That’s how they get you. The getting up part.
Me: *getting into bed* I think this is the year we start collecting Christmas village pieces. We’ve been talking about it for 3 years. It’s time.

Husband: Agreed. But you know we have to have sex now to prove we’re not an old married couple.

Me: My plan worked perfectly!
In Head Rock Harbor (a tiny town on the Mississippi river), bookstore owner, Jackson Harper, cooks, takes care of his cat, gets flirted with by cute guys, and solves murders. First 3 books available now! #LGBTQ #cozymystery #mmromance #audiobooks

Me: (getting off the phone with the bank) Is today a holiday? The bank says so!

Husband: It’s Columbus Day.

Me: *hiss* Trump’s America.

Husband: It came before Trump.

Me: *hisses* Colonization and racism!

Husband: There ya’ go.
Pinterest gave me a community violation for RE-PINNING this cross-stitch pattern another person pinned. A cross-stitch pattern, folks. That site has gotten Puritanical and full of ads...
