I've got a book launch event for BREATHE: JOURNEYS TO HEALTHY BINDING coming up at 1pm on Saturday May 11 at the Barnes and Noble in Santa Rosa (700 4th St). Say hello if you'll be in town!

Here's the info from the Barnes and Noble event page:

We are beyond excited to announce that we are hosting Maia Kobabe, author of 'Gender Queer' I.E. 2023's most banned book in America, for a Discussion/Signing of 'Breath: Journeys to Healthy Binding' by Maia Kobabe and Sarah Peitzmeier, PHD. 'Breath' is a graphic novel comprised of real-life stories and research-backed advice on the subject of binding. Maia will also be joined by local LGBTQIA+ non-profit, Positive Images, who will be setting up appointments for binder sizing while also handing out free binders and other goodies. We will also be having a bookfair with Positive Images that will allow a portion of all event sales to go back to the organization so they can continue to help the LGBTQIA+ community.

The book discussion will be open to all who would like to join however, one of Maia's books will have to be purchased to receive a wristband granting you access to the book signing line after the discussion. LIMITED WRISTBANDS AVAILIBLE so it is encouraged to buy your books before the event begins.

A Library with a deadly enchantment. A fae lord who wants in. A human woman willing to risk it all for a taste of power. In a land ruled by ruthless Fae, twenty-one-year-old Lore Alemeyu's village is trapped in a forested prison. Lore knows that any escape attempt is futile–her scars are a testament to her past failures. But when her village is threatened, Lore makes a desperate deal with a fae lord. She convinces him that she will risk her life for wealth, but really she’s after the one thing the Fae covet above all: magic of her own. As Lore navigates the hostile world outside, she’s forced to rely on two fae males to survive. When undeniable chemistry ignites, she’s not just in danger of losing her life, but her heart to the very creatures she can never trust.

Happy book birthday to Lore of the Wilds by Analeigh Sbrana!

Ana's not on Tumblr, so I'm doing the celebration for her 💖🥳

If you like:

-🍄 cottage core -✨ fairy core -📚 light/dark academia vibes -🌈 a diverse cast of all Black LGBTQIA+ characters -💘 romance -🧝🏾‍♀️ the idea of being kidnapped by a fairy prince to tidy up his cursed/enchanted library and coming into your own magical powers as a result, then Lore of the Wilds might just be for you!

Full disclosure: I worked on this book as a proofreader before it got picked up by Harper Collins, and I loved every minute of it. I kept forgetting I was supposed to be working and reading ahead. I scheduled a week to finish reading it and did it in 3 days, and the only reason it took so long was that I had to actually pause and work on it 😅

Lore of the Wilds is available now in ebook, audio, paperback, and hardback from most book retailers. Check out the Harper Collins links to find a retailer close to you!

Please consider checking out Lore. It's a stunning world with an amazing cast, and Ana deserves every bit of success after she fought so hard to get her all Black fairytale past the hurdles of mainstream publishing.

[Publishing] Excitement, awe and terror

Yes, it is time to tremble, quake, and possibly do a nervous wee. Because Learning to be Human is now available to order in the US & Canada! It is, of course, already available in the UK. It is, I think you’ll agree, a saucy and well-constructed tome. If you decide you don’t like the stories (unlikely, there’s a huge variety stretching from the Iliad to me), you can always use this as a small…

It's here!! Anna Karenina Isn't Dead from Improbable Press

The anthology

Welcome to the rewritten lives of thirty-two literary legends

From Russia's Anna Karenina to Vietnam's Lady Trieu, from Cio-Cio-San to Frankenstein's second creature, suffering, madness, or death is the fate of far too many women in classic literature. Anna Karenina Isn't Dead undoes that.

In this anthology of literary women, these women live. Do they have a happily ever after? You'll see. Do they have a happy-right-now? Oh yes.

These are the reimagined tales of the famous, the infamous, the barely mentioned women in myths, poems, and legends. These are the stories of the Lady in Black, Wendy Darling, Dido, and many more, each getting a better journey than the one she originally got.

Here Anna Karenina and her literary kin are not dead. Very far from it.

My story

My mother and I loved the poem "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes, and I jumped at the chance to write Bess a better ending. In my story "Love Knot," I gave her five minutes’ notice of the soldiers’ arrival, and she did the rest.

King George's men saw Samuel only as a highwayman, a rogue, a thief. They knew his rich clothes, but not how they smelled of sun and sweat and the cold road. They knew the weapons beneath his coat, but not how he liked to use his rapier to cut apples from a tree, how he would flash his shiny pistols at the children who gathered to hear his stories of daring battles for yellow gold. They knew he'd given a confession of love to Bess. They didn't know what it had sounded like in the earnest voice of a boy who was then only eight years old.

Book Birthday!

The Framed Women of Ardemore House

Today’s the day! This has been a long journey; I’m a historian who writes about social justice most of the time (with an upcoming book on interwar transgender history). I’m also non-binary and autistic, so representation means SO MUCH. I think many of us here have been following GoodOmens (congrats on the big win!) and OFMD, stories that give us sensitive and celebrated diversity. GO, in particular, made me feel ‘seen’ at a critical time in my life. This is my first fiction, book one of a series, and I wanted to show some of what it’s like to navigate the world as neurospicy—but without the cliche or stigma. If mystery fiction is your jive, I hope you will think about reading!

Autistic protagonist determined to be herself

Strong women characters, LGBTQ characters, disability representation

Murder in the manor

Dual POV

Double mysteries

Gothic elements and literary Easter eggs

A sharp, savvy mystery about an autistic editor who inherits a crumbling English estate, only to find herself at the center of a murder investigation when a family portrait vanishes and a dead body turns up.
