Coming Soon

 
A Suitable Brat - a novella set in the Suitable 'Verse, featuring a normally calm and centered slightly older fellow and the younger man who makes Mr. Calm-and-Centered spark like a log in a fire. Out now!

Two of a Kind - a little fantasy/historical/steampunk-ish story-- Out now!
In which a quiet chemist helps his poor little rich boy friend who gets caught in the snow. (and there was only one bed. tsk) 





Special Charity Drive

Was a success!! Final tally is about $1700!! which is amazing in a time when so many have to cut back. Thank you all! 








Because of the current anti-queer, anti-sex movement driven by Christofascist assholes, I am trying to ensure that physical copies of my stories are available. Some of these editions will only be available through places that D2D distributes to but most will be available widely and on Amazon as well.  

The Being(s) in Love series is now available to distribute as paperbacks through Draft2Digital and not just Amazon.
Also widely available: Fox of Fox Hall, Taji from Beyond the Rings, Izzy and the Right Answer, Trevor Takes Care, The Montgomery Firefighters in Love 
Your Heart for a Story of Mine: The Contemporary Shorts and Novellas, (already available on Amazon),
Your Heart for a Story of Mine: The Fantasy Shorts and Novellas, 
Your Heart for a Story of Mine: The Steampunk Shorts and Novellas 
​Little God, Dancing Lessons, Tit for Tat, Wicklow's Odyssey
Ravenous (feat. Lambchop and the Serious Courtship) 
The Suitable 'Verse (including Blessed, the AU novella, which is available with A Suitable Brat)
Play It Again, Charlie. 


So that at least people can get physical copies of the shorts they like if the worst goes down. Yay. What a timeline we are in.


Next on the list: Familiar Spirits



Next WIP: a return to Everlasting for both a novel and a book of shorts because I apparently love to drive myself bananas.
