Just uploaded all my files to Amazon! If you like intrigue, libraries, philosophy, fighting demons or plant zombies, and overall a lot of plot to go with what might actually be kind of a gooey marshmallow center of a gay romance set against the backdrop of the late 1960s, you would like these.

I #read Seeing Blind by Poppy Dale. This M/M 🏳️‍🌈 #romance from 2021 has one MC with a severe case of prosopagnosia (face blindness). It's charming. TW for homophonic parent, secrets, dating apps, & online relationships. #book #books #reading #romancelandia @romancebooks

Writers! Where/how did you find & hire your editors (for any kind of editing)? Or if you're looking for one, where/how are you searching? And what's your genre? I'm curious about how your real experiences line up with how editors talk about marketing and visibility. Thanks 💖

Can anybody point me to books that are queer romances and/or relationship-focused tales (happy with queerplatonic or family relationships too!), in a contemporary small-town setting, but with elements of magic / supernatural? I have a hankering.

I don't exactly know how to work ARC copies for a sequel, but okay. If you're interested in an ARC copy of Old Time Religion, click here: https://forms.gle/qnE9go4kM8Z1ZubJA

None of these are disqualifying questions. If you haven't read Dionysus in Wisconsin yet, I can give you a copy of that too. I expect to have ARCs ready to go around 1/1.

Old Time Religion is an urban fantasy/queer historical romance set in 1970 in Wisconsin.

I #read Gnome Sweet Gnome by Elva Birch (#book 2/Lawn Ornament Shifters) today because rn it’s #free (not sure how long that will last), and because the cover & title made me laugh. This shorter-length Christmas story takes rom-com almost to absurd #romance. Get ready for a jewel thief owl shifter to meet her mate as a Norwegian gnome factory owner. #reading #books #romancelandia @romancebooks

I #read Claimed by the Barbarian Warlords by Charmaine Ross (#book 1/Stolen Planet). I think it’s great when FMCs assert & fight for their own agency, but the burden of assholery behavior that provokes the fight for independence often rests on the MMC(s) in that plot line. This is the case for this story. I wanted to kick the alien warlords for being dumbasses for 75% of the book. #reading #books #romance #romancelandia #romancebooks @romancebooks

I #read Snowed In With A Dragon by Sara Ivy Hill. This Christmas #book of a sweet stalkerish dragon who waits for his girl until her boyfriend cheats on her is a little red-flaggy if you want your #romance to be perfectly socially acceptable. Hill does honor consent. #reading #books #romancelandia #romancebooks @romancebooks

I #read via #audiobook When She’s Ready by Ruby Dixon. The audiobook is both When She’s Ready and When She’s Lonely. Both are very pro-consent post-slavery human-alien #romance. I find these Risdaverse #books entertaining & mostly safe, more so than her other series. (I ❤️Ruby even when it’s scary.) #reading #book #romancelandia @romancebooks

I am looking for a new beta reader. I write serialized Yuri Paranormal Romance. I publish up to 5,000 words a week and my drafts are close to finished before I send them to readers. I am happy to return the favor.

Not required but a def. plus is being familiar with Japan to spot cultural errors.

DM me or reply but please remove the lists, no point in cluttering those feeds.

Said this before & will say it again, one of my favorite series & one of my favorite in the series. But start at the beginning, or at least with Jabril. @romancebooks

The holidays are stressful. Treat yourself to a book with a happy ending. Sam and Ulysses meet in September, fight evil together all autumn, and face off against a god in late December, so this is the perfect time of year to read it. Plus, you'll be ready for the sequel in January.

I #read When She’s Shy by Ruby Dixon (Sept 2023). This short #book from the Risdaverse is a 52 pg F/F delight. Please don’t let that scare you off if you are a straight cis person. This is the first time I know of that Dixon has openly written lgbt main characters, one of which clearly has an anxiety disorder.

#FridayKiss 💋​ MEANING (11/17)

"But you're not a good kisser—"

"An 80% grade wasn't good?"

"Um. Above average—"

"I can do much better," he insisted. "I am very good at learning. Teach me. I'll lay a wager that I can achieve a 100% under your tutelage."

"Meaning, what? You are a brazen arrogant son of a dragon, Your Excellency. What do you get should you win?"

"Anything you want."

"That's... what?" My heart skipped. "Okay, you sneak. What do I get if I win?"

He surged forward, kissing me before I could react. Not that I planned on running. Quite the opposite.

I #read as #audiobook Band Sinister by KJ Charles (2018). This 🏳️‍🌈 M/M historical #regencyromance is mis-titled, but otherwise is charming. It was in the Audible Premium Plus catalog, so I didn’t pay anything extra for it. #book #romance #reading #books #romancelandia @romancebooks

I stayed up Way Too Late last night #reading Little Dove by Layla Frost. There are a couple of 🚩TWs in this casino owner #romance - he abducts her before her 18th birthday and murders her deadbeat father. But he doesn’t touch her or ask her to call him Daddy until she’s 18 (barely). No age play, he’s just a straight up obsessive control freak. I loved it and may buy the audiobook later. #book #books #read #romancebooks #romancelandia @romancebooks
