Clare Ashton, I have to admit, is one of the first sapphic authors I read whose book *gripped* me. The book in question was The Goodmans, but her writing in general is absolutely fantastic!
Including her latest book Meeting Millie, published only a couple months ago - I'm not sure if y'all were u...

Monica started writing and publishing sapphic romance in 2017, and has (rarely) stopped since. With a plethora of ideas and characters that are all so different from each other but feel like real people you can just know 2023-02-17 11:33:02 +0000 UTC View Post
As a followup to our poll, I'm just gonna drop some Valentine's Day fun facts.

So, these past few weeks I've been getting a bit busy - thinking about how to commercialize and refocus my books a bit, especially as I work further for full-time writing.
With a wonderful suggestion from my girlfriend, I've been working on finding a cover designer to redo all of my old covers.
