I commissioned my lovely friend Sorren (who asked me not to link his socials) a while back to do this piece of Keshet for me, and I’m so blown away by how it turned out!! He looks so handsome and menacing, he’s perfect!

Happy birthday Keshet, here’s to another year of silly lizard shenanigans 💙

So I was raised in a non-reform, pretty strict community, meaning that homophobia is very much present. (My dad freely uses the f slur in the community and the rabbi has said he would hesitate to let LGBT folk into services.) I would like help on reconciling my lesbian identity with my Jewish one, since the way I've been raised the two don't really seem to mesh. Thank you.

I was raised in a Chassidic Orthodox community, and so I feel your pain and conflict. It's a really hard journey, and ultimately it's yours alone. For me, I reconciled my trans and bi identity (originally I identified as lesbian, too) with learning about non-cis heteronormative figures in the Tanakh and in Jewish history. I read Jewish homoerotic poetry from the middle ages, and I connected with other LGBTQ+ people with similar backgrounds to mine.

I highly suggest connecting with Jewish Queer Youth (JQY), an organization advocating for community and acceptance for LGBTQ+ youth and parents in Orthodox, Chassidic, and more observant communities.

Another great organization is Eshel, which works on creating inclusion for LGBTQ+ people within Orthodox communities, and also has resources with Halakhic values on including LGBTQ+ people.

Yet another organization is Sephardic Mizrahi Q Network (SMQN) which focuses on creating acceptence and pride for LGBTQ+ people within Sephardi and Mizrachi communities.

Finally, there's also Keshet, which works on fostering equality and community for all LGBTQ+ Jews.

JQY and Eshel are tailored specifically for LGBTQ+ people from Orthodox, Chassidic, Chareidi, and other more socially conservative and observant communites, and there are so many resources they have that you can use. They have Zoom session, in-person meet-ups for some cities, and places to ask questions and talk with other LGBTQ+ people, Rabbis, and mental health professionals.

I am sending so many solidarity hugs your way, I know it can be so difficult trying to reconcile two seemingly opposing identities, and I wish you so so much luck and love on your journey.

May this new year bring you love, acceptence, and community, my friend. Shana Tova U'Metukah.

Pre-orders for The Rebel Foxes are open now! ✡️🏳️‍⚧️🔥🐾

I'm donating half the profits from all my preorders across the board to Keshet, an organization that benefits queer jews, and queer jews of color.

I've been considering this for quite some time, and I find it rather fitting to do this with my first book featuring a trans main, and under my new pen name. If you've read any of my works, then you know that my Jewish roots influence my stories deeply. I'll be continuing this from now until release.

Blurb: 🐾🏳️‍⚧️📚

Welcome to the Dome, a special kind of hell where flora and fauna are legends brought to life by shifters, a mutant race that the malevolent and overtly wealthy Citadel hunts down endlessly in fear of what they what do if given a foothold in society.

The Rebel Foxes are a powerful gang led by Rajni, a fox shifter hellbent on bringing down the oppressive system impoverishing and endangering humans and shifters alike. They take in those who need shelter, and give away their wealth to the poor.

Her pack is thriving and for the first time in years, they have a counter attack planned for The Hunt, a night of crime sanctioned by the Citadel. A night dedicated to flushing shifters out so anyone can murder them without the worry of standard daily limits and hunting tags.

But, all good things must come to an end, and Rajni's past catches up with her on the night of the Hunt. The human with amber eyes that once saved her life demands her help. Or else.

Fight with Rajni and her foxes.

Drystan, the peaceful panther and nanny.

Jaromir, the wise polar bear who loves to bake.

Balderik, the golden canine with healing hands.

Hotaru, the black fox who likes chemistry too much.

Xylia and Takara, the foxes who share Rajni's bed, and dreams.

The craziest part of the parthenogenic lizards is that they still copulate with each other lmao. Unlike mammals lizards usually just mate by pressing holes together, so, physically, two females mating really isn't that different. The fact that they clone themselves? Fine. But the fact that they didn't succumb to lesbian sheep syndrome? Outrageous, miraculous

#ive known about whiptails for a long time btw it's why keshet is a whiptail #and always has been a whiptail

The Adventures of an Inconvenient Au Ra

Fandom: FFXIV Rating: G Tags: Fluff and Humor, Cultural Differences, Non-Linear Narrative, Au Ra Xaela Warrior of Light, Drabble Collection

Keshet of the Dotharl was many things: a proud Au Ra, a fierce warrior, a general nuisance - and occasionally, the Warrior of Light. But mostly, he was just a big lizard far from home. Here are some of his adventures.

Read the series on Ao3!

-

This week marks the first anniversary of my main Keshet series, The Daily Inconveniences of an Au Ra, so I’m celebrating with a shiny new side series! Focusing less on the accessibility issues for a big lizard in a distant land and more on the personal (and interpersonal) adventures of Keshet of the Dotharl, adventurer and occasional Warrior of Light.

Masterlist under the cut!
