Wicked.
Get well soon. May Science Facts lead to useful treatment.
Makes getting dressed in the morning easier. 👍
And Vianne is coming to the end of Margot’s recipe book 😊
Presumably Hell is getting Most Favoured Nation status?

Yes, it’s today! And thank you. Much appreciated x
You know how subtle Lucy Steele is in Sense and Sensibility? Well my new blog is like that. But worse. Because after ten years my first novel is released tomorrow.

What makes Lizzy Bennet an icon for the ages? And how did I translate her into my remake’s protagonist, Tom Bennet? A new post for release week 😊.

TFW Amazon recommends you your own book 🤣
So if you like contemporary LGBTQ fiction, literary fiction that steeps itself in pop culture, and Austen retellings this could be a book for you.
@theguyliner.bsky.social calls the book ‘a fun, fearless reimagining of an iconic romance, brought bang up to date. It holds on to all the charm and bite of its inspiration, yet offers a take on love and life’s prejudices that’s all its own.’
The paperback is available on release day, when both it and the ebook will be for sale on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and from the publisher (www.spectrum-books.com)
10 years after I began it (!) my first book comes out on March 22nd. It’s an LGBTQ+ reimagining of Pride and Prejudice, set in the present day and called Property and Propriety.
The ebook is already on pre-order at geni.us/propertyandp....

My stablemate Max Austin’s new book is out today! It’s a great way to explore how our LGBTQ+ lives shape and are shaped by social change, and feels like a pint in your local with your mates. Brassy, comforting, and emotionally resonant. I hope you enjoy it.
What would happen if Lizzy Bennet were a gay man in the present day?

I think he has a point, one that gets ramped up hysterically by the far right just as he says to foster resentment. It’s why we must remember intersectionality. A poor cis straight white guy has loads of privilege compared with poor gay black guys but a lot less than their rich equivalents.
What can a cover do for a book? My latest blog (and cover reveal (sic) 🤣: open.substack.com/pub/alexbria...
My feelings exactly
You’re basically not sleeping at this point, I imagine. But congratulations!
They should be ashamed of themselves. I wish I could say I am surprised, but I am not.

Ever wonder how a modern reimagining of Jane Austen might portray men who have sex with men? Here’s my take: open.substack.com/pub/alexbria...
Ah. But he’s white, you see, and also rich. This makes him an ex pat 🙄.
