This new art of Atariel and Scorpio by @valeriokkai from my book You Left Me the Stars is making me laugh so hard

This new art of Xana and Atariel from my book You Left Me the Stars done by @valeriokkai feels like it should be illegal.

A weird thing I've noticed is that in books, MCs almost always fall into the "stress makes them unable to eat" camp, and as a professional stress eater, I'm tired of it. Anyway my MC raids the pantry for anything sweet the night before the final confrontation.

I'm am begging, BEGGING bisexual women in relationships with men to not center themselves in every conversation about queer representation. We know you're queer, but not everything has to be about you. (I say this as a bisexual woman)

Can authors STOP using "male" and "female" excessively?? No one is confused if you refer to an elf/fae/whatever as a man or woman, or, better yet, not with gendered terms at all!

This is my hot take: "Let people read what they want" should apply to GENRES, NOT specific authors/books. I'll never say anything about someone reading a genre I don't enjoy, but if you keep reading books written by racists/queerphobes/etc I'm going to assume you're also racist/queerphobic/etc

Two girls in their early teens, standing in a forest with their foreheads pressed together, and a text post over which reads "did you ever have an intense homoerotic years-long friendship in your early to mid teens that culminated in a dramatic friend breakup or are you straight"

I feel like this is the closest thing to a universal sapphic experience. If you feel personally attacked, you might be interested in my book, You Left Me the Stars. (Artist credit to killerlaurent on IG) #Sapphicfantasy #Queerfantasy #Author #Writing #Sapphic #Queer

A drawing of two women dancing. One is a black human woman wearing a blue suit, the other is a blonde half-elf woman wearing a green dress.

This is probably my favorite art that ProlixPat did for my book, You Left Me the Stars. My poor dumb gay babies. If you want to know more about them, check out the link in my bio. #SapphicFantasy #QueerFantasy #Queer #Sapphic #Author #Writing

The cover of tempered in ash. A teal blue/green background that has an art deco style border that looks like it’s been engraved into the book. The center features scenery of a small fantasy village nestled up against the mountains with a man falling from the sky. The bottom of the cover features the symbol of Mersari: a pair of wings pierced with swords, with a pair of crying eyes and a starburst.

I've yet to read an M/F scene that doesn't have an ick or something cringey in it. But F/F always hits right.

A Chinese woman with shoulder-length dark hair swept to one side of her head, wearing a V-neck red dress, and holding a glass of red wine. Her face and arms are covered with burn scars that look like flames.

Three characters in front of a light green background. The leftmost is a white man with red hair dressed like a ranger. His arm is around a blonde half-girl. She is looking back towards a black woman in plate armor.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.
