Here I am again! It's been a difficult time for me, basically since the end of October 2025, when my beautiful cat Wynne Genki passed away. Since then, both of my paternal grandparents have also died, and I was in a minor but expensive car crash. I've hit a truly major snag in reuniting with my beloved husband. And I lost a costume contest that I should definitely have placed in. Life is a dumpster and it is truly on fire.
However, it hasn't all been disasters. Just mostly disasters. On Valentine's Day, Alexander and I relaunched our Patreon, featuring two awesome new queer fantasy stories, TOUCH GRASS and TOUCH SCALES. TOUCH GRASS follows Mirza, a man who has fallen from the cyberpunk dystopia he knows and hates into a lush and fantastical world. His guide, Rosaire, is not all that he seems... But on the bright side, he is insanely hot. Will Mirza uncover the truth, or lose his heart in the process?
In TOUCH SCALES, T'la Xiaolu of Spring has a problem. She's stumbled upon a secret kept by none other than Areyu of Summer, a lethal wildcard of a woman who has designs on a dragon so powerful that its awakening portends disaster. Xiaolu braces herself for an attack but gets something else instead--a marriage proposal. Can something bloom between Spring and Summer?
You can read them right here, and subs start at just $1.

Alexander has also opened a Redbubble, so come get your biblically accurate squid stickers (squickers? no, that can't be it...)!
It wants you to be not afraid, and give it some fish. • Millions of unique designs by independent artists. Find your thing.
In the meantime, I have two novellas on the way--one that I'm pitching as BUGONIA meets THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE, and another one that's really just a vent for my feelings about Coppola's Dracula.
Anyway, if any of that interests you, feel free to check it out!
Until next time.
