If you're looking for a book with—
queer, nonbinary, POC protagonists
soft and mysterious magic
complex, realistic characters
prophetic dreams & curses & magic plants
—you should check out Mirrored in Evergreen!
It's a queer contemporary fantasy novel about a wizard-in-training named Rosemary who is cursed to be forgotten. In order to break the spell, he must regain the trust of his partner, Rowan—but in losing their memories of his existence, they've also forgotten that they are capable of using magic at all.
Reviewers have described it as "great character-driven fantasy," "thoughtful, artistic, contemplative," and "not at all reminiscent of H*rry P*tter" :)
Available now from Amazon and a wide variety of other retailers in both e-book and paperback form, & in e-book only on my website 🖤

Y’all….I’m done!
I’ve been a little quiet for a reason. As I said before in another post, I’ve been pretty busy lately. Friend stuff. Writing stuff. Relaxing stuff. Getting ready for an end of summer trip AND prepping for a new school year, teaching at a new school. A lot has been happening.
BUT I just finished my first draft of TLBH. Like…I’m done! My minimum goal was 85k and today, I hit 85,144, which I am perfectly happy with. I am so excited to be done and really proud of myself for sticking with it.
Now, I will be taking a break from looking at this WIP and anything to do with it. Editing and second draft stuff will sit on the back burner for a bit. I have an idea for another story that I wanna work on and haven’t been able to dig into too much lately because I wanted to finish this project first, so I will start shifting my focus to this standalone project before going back to my big series stuff.
Now, whenever I play different tag games and such, I’ll have two different stories to pick from.
Thanks everyone who’s followed me, liked, reblogged, etc. Thanks for all the asks and tags and all the support. You guys are really awesome and I can’t wait to share other stuff with you all. :) 🤍

If you’re stealing or “plagiarizing” ocs that are poc and/ or queer but changing their background to fit stereotypical ships or making them straight, COMMITTING PURE ERASURE, it’s racist and it’s homophobic.
Fuck off and get a life.

October is Pride Month in South Africa. As a queer artist from South Africa, it is important that we strive to share queer narratives in all art forms.
One of the biggest reasons I wrote this book was because growing up I wanted to see someone who looked like me and was like me. Someone who was a person of colour and queer in a world of magic.

ONLY 10 DAYS LEFT!
Grab your copy of the 'In the Neck of the Woods' horror anthology by pledging to the Kickstarter!
Tumblr media
Take a look at the Kickstarter page!
We're now 100% funded - thank you so much to everyone who has pledged! There's still time to pledge to grab a copy and some merch!
What's the scariest thing about camping?
Maybe everything? 
Find all new ways to be horrified of the dark with the aid of this spectacular anthology, featuring sixteen terrifying tales centred around one of the creepiest activities out there, camping! Better yet, this collection of unique horror stories has been written exclusively by BIPOC and LGBTQ+ writers.
Although the theme is camping, this anthology features a wide range of horror sub-genres. Each story is vastly different from the next! 'In the Neck of the Woods: A Horror Anthology' has a little bit something for everyone, including but not limited to: monsters, thrillers, psychological horror, historical horror, clowns, ghosts, and cults.  This book will also feature an additional table of contents with trigger warnings for those who are sensitive to certain topics (hate spiders? same here!)
Greykin Press is solely focused on sharing the voices of marginalised communities, and we couldn't have found a better group of writers to feature in the very first book in our horror anthology collection! We know you'll love it as much as we do.
Check out the Kickstarter page to see what you can get by pledging and helping us bring this project to life!

It’s so refreshing to be seeing posts in my timeline where people are praising OFMD s2 and giving some pretty good insight into why Izzy was killed off.

Hi yes
How do I befriend writers on Tumblr so I may buy their ebooks and write reviews of their books and spread word of their writing?
I am terrible at this whole "connecting with social media accounts" thing but I'd very much love to give Tumblr authors a shout out on my blog! Especially since everyone was down for my representation masterpost!
If you are an author who writes about:
Queer identities
BIPOC identities
Mental illness
Mental disabilities
Physical disabilities
PLEASE SEND ME A LINK TO YOUR EBOOK!
I will add it to my TBR!!!! It will get talked about and reviewed!!!! I will buy a physical version to donate to my hospital!!!!

“There’s a sensibility that we can pass down in our cultures,” says Gomez. “That changes the way the culture works, even if it’s only in tiny ways.”

Intro to WIP - Book 1/4
Tumblr media
TLBH
"'You underestimate the power of mortals. They are, of course, insignificant in the grand scheme of it all, but that never seems to discourage them. They have the will and audacity that should only be reserved for gods. For us. They fight for lost causes. They long for old corpses. They refuse to quit. It is quite bothersome at times.'" --Maloria, Chapter 1
Genre: Fantasy
Status: First Draft; started January 1, 2023
Progress/Target: 56.5k/80-90k
Themes and Tropes: portal to another world, prophecies, chosen one, found family, rivals/enemies to lovers, sibling rivalry
Age Rating: 17+
Warnings: violence, death, mental illness
Plot: Seth and Zayna are the co-captains of their university's debate team and they can't stand each other. After yet another heated argument, they are sent off to the school's library in an attempt to force them to work together, but of course, something strange happens while they're there and the two are transported to a different world. There, the two meet many different citizens--some of whom are a great help to them and some that are anything but. Seth and Zayna just want to get home, but the deeper they get into this world, the more they find out it won't be as easy as they thought. Can they put aside their disdain for each other to reach a common goal, or will they let petty arguing ruin them and their chances of getting back?
Extra details: Black female lead. Cherokee male lead. Plenty of LGBTQ rep and many Black and POC characters.
