can confirm, my kids are obsessed with these books!

i got this too and for fuck's sake

omg fur cape fur cape!!

unfortunately, i do understand why publishing timelines are 2+ years out from announcement 🫠

The Story of Silence by Alex Myers!

(accidentally ranted while hangry, lol. no regrets.)

at the end of the day, i write what i wanna read. i write for those readers who want/need radical characters. who find that kind of "unrealistic" historical character comforting. hopeful. safe. whatever. but just like queer people, progressivism isn't ahistorical. we've always been here, fighting.

i don't know how to say this exactly but just for posterity: i write progressive, anti-capitalist characters because i'm a fucking *socialist* not because i'm worried about (checks notes) twitter

AND HISTORICAL PEOPLE WERE PROGRESSIVE ffs. tiffany problem shit.

bahaha. "detail," you could say that. 🤭

i have had reader DM's about that scene!!!! it's the best thing ever!! (and a bucket list item i did not know i had)

also, it is apparently kindof a polarizing book. do you like:
- historical prose?
- repressed 19th-century men who won't admit how they feel under pain of death?
- chaos gremlin ex-lovers who PINE?
- pirate captains who are (allegedly) "too progressive" for 1816 C.E.? (lol. loool.)

THIS IS FOR YOU!

ofc! and it's SO good 😭

also Spanish.
