~~I've Been Tasked With Saving the World, but maybe I want it to Burn?~~

New series of posts. I think it's the best way I have to share the story I'm working on, chapter by chapter.

She fell from the sky.
Silfra found her, and everything changed.
Fractured Rune is an epic queer arcane industrial fantasy with reality-breaking storms, forbidden magic, and a trans protagonist trying to survive it all.

Fuck it, I’m sick. Brain’s fried.
Read my epic sci-fantasy book Fractured Rune.
It’s queer. The protagonist is trans.
Anti-authoritarian. Critical of high-control religion.
Slow-burn sapphic romance.

Follow me if you want to know more about my queer book, or if you enjoy watching a trans woman author rage against fascism and queerphobia.
Also there will be the occasional absolutely unhinged silly post.

My guts churn as my parents’ voices echo in my head. I’m in a circle surrounded by other troubled kids and we’re spilling our confessions out for a man in a perfect grey suit who never stops smiling except to tell you he’s disappointed. He’d clap his hands. I’ll never forget the clap. It was a clap and then a rub, and he’d say “let’s get started.” He made it sound like a buffet. He’d give us homework. Most of the time that meant writing something and sharing it with the group, but there was another trick he taught us, one I kept doing even after the sessions ended. Ritual was important, he told us. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so what does that tell us about starting our day right by God? So each morning I’d walk to the bathroom before I did anything else and stare at myself in the mirror. I’d look myself in the eyes and I’d tell the Josh on the other side of the glass that he wasn’t gay. It was then I’d know everything was going to be okay. - The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle
The conifers past the small airport look the same as the ones on Echo Island. Fog seeps over and between them, their branches sloped beneath the weight of a hundred remembered winters. She watches them like they’re special, and as I stand beside her the specialness of these mindnumbingly ordinary trees in this mindnumbingly ordinary place infects me too.
Quote from the book: “The lights in the bar cast their mirror images into the eyes of the audience: a dozen moons reflected in bowls of water. Everyone and everything is stillness and silence—a bated breath given physical form” - The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle, Steve Hugh Westenra Reviews: “If there were Oscars for books, this one would win ‘Best Ensemble Cast’ as well as a host of others.” - Paul, Queen’s Book Asylum “It's a crime this book doesn't have more exposure.” - Al Hess, author of Key Lime Sky “Hypnotising and lyrical prose . . . a sort of fever dream-like reading experience.” - Esmay Rosalyne, Before We Go Blog About: A Queer Horror Comedy A cryptid-hunting YouTube darling follows a video of his presumed-dead mom to an isolated island that was once a gay conversion camp and may house the monsters he swears aren’t real
“If you don’t open up, I’ll give you a Chelsea smile. You won’t like that much.” I plead with my eyes, with everything I have. All the pathos I can summon. And it’s not an act. It’s real. It’s real. [Redacted] slices half an inch into the right corner of my lip. It hurts it hurtsithurts. My skin feels loose in a way that’s not good. It’s no good. “Please.” Speaking hurts, but the word spills from me, liquid to blend with my tears. I clamp my eyes closed. I can’t look. “Please. Please don’t. Don’t.” Every word is a stutter, my teeth clacking together, my chest heaving. “Hold still, baby.”
The #transrightsreadathon is coming up! If you like unusual books, literary horror that combines a pop, camp sensibility with darker themes, & Twin Peaks, may I humbly suggest:

"One Bullet" by Casey Wolfe, the book sits at the center of the graphic, it's title in red at the top. Above the book says: Contemporary gay romance. One either side are pointed arrows to different bullet points: a former cop with PTSD, a detective with a tea addiction, found family, meddling best friends. At the bottom is the tagline: One bullet changed both their lives. AuthorCaseyWolfe.carrd.co. The book cover itself is a dark blue background filled with stars, including a shooting star. A spent bullet cartridge casing sits at the bottom, yellow-orange smoke coming up from it, forming a background for the title.
Advert for book series. On a white background with a horizontal powder blue stripe sits three books: A Mage's Power, A Vampire's Redemption, and An Elf's Fate. Above it reads: Casey Wolfe's The Inquisition Trilogy. Below reads: Books and Socials. AuthorCaseyWolfe.carrd.co

My marketing strategy is simple:
1. Write a queer book about reality collapsing
2. Stand in the town square ringing a bell
3. Yell “HERE YE. HERE YE. READ MY BOOK YOU COWARDS”
Step 3 is this post.

Woah, woah WOAH!
You were just going to scroll past without even looking?
Wow. I see how it is. That’s just soooo aggressive.
You can make it up to me by checking out my pinned post though.
