I’ve never read a book from Arden I didn’t love! If you want gay magical Jeeves and Wooster, grab The Bachelor’s Valet; if you want The Lost World if it was really gay and really terrifying, grab Obsidian Island - but you can’t go wrong with anything!
I got hit with an unexpected $200 expense today! I need to buy software to keep my new freelance job. It would be amazing to sell some books or get some new patrons to help cover it 😬

NONBINARY NOVELLAS FOR BLACK FRIDAY!

My F/NBi noir romance series, Fatal Fidelity, is 99 cents for a limited time!

This will likely be the last sale on these books for a while as I plan to get my rights back in 2026 and they will be off storefronts for a bit 👀

How are you feeling today? This sort of check in is both a fun way to see how everyone is showing up for the day. A fun note, Morningside Center pets are starring in our Friday "how are you feeling" gatherings! This is Mia Mayhem! #mscgatherings #dogs #dogsofbluesky

Many years ago, I was feeling stressed by the state of the world and I started a Holiday Fairies thing where people sent me their wishlists and I publicized them to try to get everyone gifts for the holidays.

@shelflove.bsky.social skillfully took it over and made it An Actual Thing!

Like SRSLY!
