Coming soon! HOST CLUB ON THE PLEASURE PLANET!
The following is a preview for The Coyote’s Veterinarian Omega, the first book in the COYOTE CREEK series, available July 28, 2026! One Wyatt Bang! I gritted my teeth and gripped the steering wheel as the car bottomed out over another enormous rut. The gravel road had clearly washed out in some wicked rainstorm recently, leaving nothing but potholes for my rusting Kia to rattle over. If...
(Letícia Alvares / Pexels.com) Well, I’m back from hiatus, and it seems a fair bit has happened in the time I was away. One of the things I’ve been watching develop over the last year or so has been the implosion of some of these reader/author conventions. That’s exactly as I predicted last spring. Look, I don’t like being right about people getting screwed over. Maybe I’ve just been around...
This news is nearly a year old , but it’s a precedent-setting case, worth going over again, especially as the legal framework around genAI continues to evolve. Our robot overlords got sued. (Kindel Media / Pexels.com) The case of several large publishers against Anthropic was one of the first to make its way through the courts. The judge delivered the ruling in June 2025. The Anthropic settlement...
“Oh, here we go again …” (Liza Summer / Pexels.com) Recently, I was reminded of a screencap of a conversation that supposedly happened. When I saw it, all I could think was ah, the straights got a hold of the omegaverse. In this screencap, the texter was discussing their partner’s admission that they liked and read omegaverse fiction. The texter was sending a lengthy rumination...
Or Are They? I recently saw a post that commented on trends in the publishing industry. One of them was that readers seem to be shifting away from so-called spicy reads. (Tom Swinnen / Pexels.com) The post gave some good reasons that this shift might be happening—but I think there’s likely more to the story than meets the eye. TikTok Ramped Up and Ruined “Spice” The major reason this post gave...
Hello, reader! It’s been a while, hasn’t it? My last post, I promised that I would be back in the summertime. While that timeline is still largely true, there have been some certain changes around here in the last week or so that have me stepping things up and pushing my plans into high gear. It’s a little sooner than expected, but after ruminating on it for a little while, I don’t think it’s a...
It's been a while, hasn't it? Time for an update on the year that was, and what's coming in 2026. I think. I hope.
(Filipp Romanovski / Pexels.com) One of my fav things about June is how much queerness comes out of the woodwork. Another fav thing is seeing certain quarters of society try to push back on it. And one of my fav arguments is that queerness is a modern invention. While that’s true to some degree, the historical record shows us queer people have existed since time immemorial. They maybe didn’t call...
At this point, I feel like I’m writing one of these posts at least every year, but it remains true. We need queer books now, more than ever before. (Sharon McCutcheon / Pexels.com) Why are queer books so important in this particular epoch? Well, we can argue queer books are important for queer people so they can recognize themselves in the pages of fiction. That’s what I’ve argued before, and...
If you’re just diving into queer fiction or even fanfic, you’re probably running across new terminology. “The olds” might make fun of teens and college students for having a lot of slang they don’t understand. Truth is that you’ll find a lot of almost incomprehensible jargon in almost any niche. (Wallace Araujo / Pexels.com) So, at this point, you might be wondering what, exactly, “m/m” romance...
