I unfortunately didn't finish my #HotWetQueerSummer dash, but I definitely intend to someday. It's shaping up to be a very sweet little story, but I'm challenging myself be poetic when it comes to the prose, and definitely need to do some work to get to the level I desire 💕✨
Thank you @monstermanor.org for hosting such a fun writing event and giving me an excuse to write some ravenous, sapphic mermaids.
My horrormance novelette for #hotwetqueersummer, Swim With Me, Darling, is out now! sylviehelstaff.com/swim-with-me...
Super excited to read everyone's books! 🌈💜 💙📚
A cover reading 'Catscratch. A trans erotica comic, Bonus issue, Hot Wet Queer Summer.' There is a unicorn and a cat boy floating in a pool. The unicorn wears a big sunhat, and is sucking on a lollipop, while the cay boy is between their legs looking utterly pleased.
Four panels. There is an establishing shot of a local pool, the group in the foreground of a cat girl, a cat boy hiding behind her, a hamster girl on her phone, and a frog girl looking pleased. The cat girl exclaims 'Damn! I know how to schedule a pool day!' The next three panels show off women, their breasts, their butt, their lips sucking on a lollipop as the cat girls yells 'Goddamn I know how to schedule, look at all these babes!'
Part of Catscratch's anniversary is also the release of Catscratch's bonus issue, made for @monstermanor.org's #hotwetqueersummer dash! Ruby and Paris have some sweet summer fun at the local pool and get a little naughty in the process! #catscratch
Currently pushing 15k with my wip and nowhere nearer the halfway point 😓 Veryyy tempted to rework the concept into a short story format but I'm also horribly attached to the behemoth it's become. . .

I may have to break this into two parts because otherwise it'll never be finished for #HotWetQueerSummer 😩 These men are unwell!
day 73-80 of #hotwetqueersummer
I was on a much-needed vacation (and social media break) with my partner this past week, so no work was done, but I'm back and ready to rock.

So I'm 11k in (which I'm honestly so pleased about since I've only ever written that much for dissertation) but I'm no where near halfway yet so 😬 it's not gonna be a novella lol, maybeee 30k depending on how much of a plot thicket I get into? Either way I'm having fun!! #HotWetQueerSummer #wip

Close up of cursive handwriting on a lined page. Centered is the word "Town", the starting spiral of its uppercase T and long slope into the vertical stroke before well-rounded lowercase letters is all very pleasing to the eye
Sleepily handwriting notes for Take Root, my story for #hotwetqueersummer, and enamoured by how "Town" came out in my tired and dimly lit scrawl
#WeeknightWriters I'll try to finish All Expenses Paid for the #HotWetQueerSummer dash, but I have Rock the Boat on hold just in case (which also fits the criteria for the dash.) I'm aiming at a Halloween release for Guest of Honor, and Pirates and Poise will be my holiday release!

SWIM WITH ME, DARLING is all about water… and the man-eating lesbian sirens that live in it.
A snippet from my upcoming novella where Lana realizes there are more sirens than just the one she’s been flirting with 👀

Matthew cracks an iced tea that is hardly hard with a pull of his index finger and passes it across the gap between Tyson-made chairs to Dustin. "I think this year I'm one and done for the straights," he says, cracking open a can for himself.

I think Making the Team (my #HotWetQueerSummer project) has the best orgasm sequence I've ever written. Just pure trans pleasure, as god intended. I'm guessing I'll have it ready for publication on my website in the next week or so! Def keep an eye out if you like trans-affirming, high-heat romance.

The goal for my #hotwetqueersummer project "That Night" has been changed from 15k to 20k because I've quickly realized it needs 10 chapters.
I'm currently at 5k of 20k ❤️🔥📝 #sapphicromance #sapphicbooks #writingcommunity #booksky
