I don't know what Wilder is talking about, kidnapping Callum seems like a fantastic plan! (from BanditWIP)
A book nestled amongst purple flowers. The cover of THE MISEDUCATION OF CAROLINE BINGLEY by Lindz McLeod shows two women in regency dress sit on a pink picnic blacket. The blonde woman in the light yellow dress offers a bright red apple to the dark-haired woman in the purple dress. Behind them we can see a lake and in the far distance, two horses stand in front of a grand house.
If you're excited for THE MISEDUCATION OF CAROLINE BINGLEY dropping in a mere two weeks (!!) please do consider pre-ordering it.
Available in gorgeous paperback and beautifully-narrated audiobook forms!
Trope map for Bear My Heart - a cozy sapphic novella. Ebook cover in green with the outline of a bear in the middle with mountains and a moon within the body. Text: "spice level: handholding (barely), neurodivergent MC's, a magical mountain, overcoming grief, sapphic romance, a bear-shifter, hermit-vibes deep in the forest, nose-booping, old dying gods.
Can I interest anyone in a slow, cozy sapphic romance full of emotion, kindness, and longing?

For Fionn in Guardian of the Sky, itโs the choice to leave or stay. He has the perfect opportunity to leave and someone who will help him, but he fears the consequences. Whether itโs the dragons that will come to more harm or the village below, he stays for them.
Happy birthday! ๐

Despite being a queer, neurodivergent Gen Z in such a rough time, I'm still alive ๐

Thank you so much!! ๐๐๐
Iโm in such debate about whether or not I want BanditWIPโs sex scenes to be closed door or open doorโฆ
All the books Iโve written so far (with an exception of one short story) have been closed door, but I feel like BanditWIP would lend itself well to an open door sex scene or two.
Of course!! And the new cover is so gorgeous!
Iโm glad I reread what I had last week! It really put me back into the headspace!
That, and listening to my playlist for it on repeat! ๐
Wrote about 1100 words on BanditWIP tonight! Finally getting back into the groove with this!

If you just can't wait, DM me for an eARC!
(Some shops are taking longer to come online than others, if you preferred shop isn't there, check back again later!)
I want to shout out @earlronove.bsky.social and Be Not Afraid! I absolutely loved this sharp, fast-paced angel-based horror! You should absolutely check it out!
And it just got a fancy new cover! ๐๏ธ
I'm going to try and focus on Milo and Cam with these prompts because their book will be coming out in October of this year...
#AwesomeCharacters
I would definitely room with Milo. Like me, he grew up with a large family and knows how to navigate living with others. Also, he's just a very considerate person.
I would hate to room with Cam. He's very messy and pretty noisy!
Audiobook cover of Phantom and Rook by Aelina Isaacs narrated by Kirt Graves. *** The book cover of Phantom and Rook by Aelina Isaacs On a busy market street in a modern town with tudor architecture a warm glow illuminates the crowds & stores that line the road. There is a seasonal festival, which is evident over this hustle because of the decorations of red & gold bunting and flags crisscrossed cross over head, and sunflowers have been pinned on the beams and roof tops. Between all the people, two men have seen each other. A tall brown man, with a mane of curly black hair, wearing a knitted rainbow duster, looks over his shoulder with the confusion of a clouded memory. He has arms full of shopping in paper bag, herbs, flowers and bottles, he has to be on his way and the crowd is moving, but still he lingers as he looks at the other man. The other man is small, thin, freckled and has a shock of red hair that is firey in the dawn light, he is taking the hood of his green jersey like he is going to pull it over his head, but before he does he looks back at the second man. The heaviness of his heart and thin hope are evident in his face.
Chapter One of Phantom and Rook narrated by Kirt Graves is up on YouTube!
In case you'd like to dip your toe in and see what this cozy urban fantasy is about. ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ฆโจ๏ธ

Oh, this is so hardโฆ ๐
I think that Iโm pretty good at writing sweet romances in a fantasy setting. I enjoy them anyways!
Amazing cover!
