I may have overbooked myself, but I’m so excited for the Golden Crown Literary Society 2025 conference! Find me at any of my official things or track me down for caffeine or wine in between—I’m going to need it! #sapphiclit
Feeling more anxious than usual to be headed to Louisiana but so thrilled this trip includes some time with queer folks and allies at an amazing indie bookstore to talk about Roux for two.

Every day is a great day to celebrate indie bookstores, but today it’s extra! Do you have a favorite? Mine are @cardcarryingshop, @buffalostreetbooks, and the soon to be opened @protagonistbooksandcoffee. Shop local! And while we’re at it, let’s #crushthepatriarchy
So excited that New Leash on Love, my collaboration with @jaimeclevenger.bsky.social, is a finalist for the Goldie Awards! Congrats to all the other finalists and everyone who created something in the last year, fancy recognition or not. Oh, and #transrightsarehumanrights
Fixed Up is now available everywhere books are sold! Trans folks are amazing and deserve love, support, and happily ever after. I hope you’ll take a chance on this grumpy trans guy I totes have the hots for and the sunny femme who has a thing or two to learn about opening her heart 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
SALE! Who needs secret babies when you can have secret baby goats? Get that plus an opposites attract, fish out of water sapphic romance for the low low price of $3.99 today only in the @boldstrokesbooks webstore!
I know most folks of my generation will point to the Indigo Girls, but the soundtrack of my queer formative years is 💯 @melissa_etheridge. Getting to spend my (47th!) birthday with her and some of may favorite humans was amazing.
Cory Booker and the first of the daffodils are giving me life today.
I’ve been struggling with feeling powerless, like living my best little queer joy life is more an act of privilege than resistance. So I decided to use a bit of that privilege to start monthly donations to NPR and the ACLU. Not huge, but so many of the things that make a difference never are.
Fixed Up is available at @boldstrokesbooks, two whole weeks before you can get it anywhere else! Grumpy Jack + sunny Ellie + historic mansion renovation + blizzard + just one bed. What ever is going to happen?

Still have to decide whether to build or source the library ladder, but the bookcase project, she is done. Now to fill all those glorious shelves!

To all my trans siblings: you are seen, you are loved, you are magic. #transdayofvisibility
After four whole days of not writing, here we are. She still needs a title and an outline, but I know how she starts and how she ends. And for those keeping track, yes, Clover is getting her story. 💕 #queerromance #polyromance #writerslife ALSO #transrightsarehumanrights #immigrantsmakeamericagreat
ARCs available! Since Fixed Up isn’t sapphic, I’m throwing a general invite out to any and all my reviewer buddies. If you’re up for a grumpy/sunshine trans guy meets queer femme, hit me up!
#arcbooks #queerromance #transbooks #transjoy
Is it warm enough? Not quite. Do I have SoMuchWritingToDo™️? Obviously. But the first sunny 60-degree day comes with rules. Even (especially?) if democracy as we know it is in peril. Find some joy today, friends.
So happy to be part of this auction! Support gender affirming care for a fantastic woman and snag some fantastic items—including a one-hour coaching session or a signed book bundle from me!
Book box day! So excited to put this one out in the world. Available from @boldstrokesbooks April 1 and everywhere else April 15!

Cover reveal! This might be my favorite cover ever. I can’t wait to bring you It Happened One Semester this fall! #sapphicromance #lightacademia #queerbooks
My epic adventure ends with landing to snow plows on the runway. It’s a little bleak and I’m more than a little ashamed of my country at the moment, but I’m grateful to get back to my little corner of my blue state. #resistandpersist
Drive up the Coromandel Peninsula and a night of glamping with an open air bubble bath and truly epic star gazing. Also, #genderaffirmingcareishealthcare
Walk up to Mount Eden, local flora, yakitori, and a phenomenal show with Postmodern Jukebox. Also, #taxtherich and #protecttranskids
Today’s highlights include adventures at the Auckland zoo, a deceptively easy drinking old fashioned, and the best Indian food I’ve had in ages at @mumbaiwala_nz. Also, #nohumanisillegal
Brunch and Old Albert the banyan tree in Devonport followed by beach day and Hokey Pokey ice cream in Mission Bay. Also #deibenefitseveryone (except maybe a handful of white guys and I’m okay with that).
Aperol spritzed my way into Auckland, had an epic lobster roll and black pepper squid at the fish market, and soaked up some local culture with the Black Knights. And I managed to stay awake all day! Thank you all for the words of encouragement during my travel woes. Oh, and #transpeoplewontbeerased
Also, since Dallas is in the throes of record low temps… #climatechangeisreal #ibelieveinscience
Fourteen hours at DFW and I’ve made a goal to snack, drink, and write my way through all the Admirals Club lounges. On my third lounge, fourth snack, second glass of wine, and I’m working on a scene noted in my outline as simply “kinky.”
PSA1: Mute me if you don’t want to be flooded with New Zealand pics for the next week. PSA2: All of said posts will include progressive hashtags to maintain mindfulness and prevent anyone in my life from liking just the parts of me that don’t make them uncomfortable. #transrightsarehumanrights
Should be on a flight to Auckland, but sitting in a cheap hotel by the Syracuse airport. Focusing on gratitude for the trip still happening and a place to sleep that isn’t an airport.
So excited to be part of #TLRCON2025 next month!
