Greetings fellow kids of Tumbr. I want to share gift links for my Medium reviews of a bunch of tRaum books.
The occasion: all tRaum titles, including my high fantasy MAEJ, are on sale for a dollar apiece on Itch through the end of the month: https://traumbooks.itch.io/
You should read them all. (The books. Not necessarily the reviews.)

A + E by Ryszard Merey
“Only when two hearts synchronise, becoming ready to risk vulnerability at the same time and at the right time, can young souls finally meet.”

Airy Nothing by Clarissa Pattern
“…explores blurred boundaries — between female and male, between gay and hetero, between the mundane and the fae, and between theatre and real life.”

It Helps with the Blues by Bryan Cebulski
“…to desire to relate to someone can be to burden them — to be infatuated can be to instrumentalise another — to long for another human, that most natural of impulses, can be dehumanising.”

Corrupted Vessels by Briar Ripley Page
This “quick read with strong prose […] maps the psychology of queer characters enmeshed in extremist mysticism against a backdrop of mental illness and the occult.”

Noema by Dael Akkerman
The more we learn about Maya, “the closer we get to a picture of who she is: sometimes perceptible, sometimes oracular, sometimes murdered, sometimes a bird.”

Query by Zilla Novikov
A “wickedly funny epistolary novella […] told entirely in the form of query letter after query letter” as well as an activist’s cri de coeur.

Most Famous Short Film of All Time by Tucker Lieberman
“…a mélange of ideas in the best sense: not merely a jumble, but a philosophical corkboard bristling with a fantastical variety of pins, each connected to the other by a fractal web of coloured yarn.”

Something’s Not Right by yves.
Stories “where the magical blends in to the humdrum, leaving you imbued with a mood of unease, or sombreness, or amusement, or half-smiling hope.”

Darknesses by Lachelle Seville
A novel which “understands and subtly acknowledges this ambiguity of love. It is a tale of loving a creature whose manifestations are all illusions.”

Love/Aggression by June Martin
“…a sugar-rush of situational absurdity, wicked satire, hallucinatory imagery, and maximally burlesque characters…”

I'm so excited to present the COVER REVEAL for my debut graphic novel, SN_33P'sCoolZine.pdf! It's the story of a spunky little AI who is making a punk zine to cope with grief for its creator. It's Adventure Time meets I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream!
You can pre-order it here: https://fifthwheelpress.myshopify.com/products/sn_33pscoolzine-pdf-by-tenacity-plys
And if you want to support me and my small indie press, reblog me so the whole world can meet SN_33P!
So my friend and I have had a joke going around that we kinda look like Ned and Peter from Spider Man. She could pull off a feminine Ned, while I could pull off a feminine Peter
Well, I got a couple more friends together to play MJ and Flash and oh my god
