My weird queer horror novella, The Hand That Touches Flame, is DONE!

(And it ended up being five parts long. Oops. At 38.5k words it actually almost doesn't qualify as a novella at all, so that's fun.)

Anyway, if anyone was waiting until completion to read my strange story about a couple of traumatised idiots battling extra-dimensional demonic horrors, secretive representatives of a hostile government agency, cultists that may be a thinly disguised metaphor for capitalism, serious communication issues and like, SO much queer pining: now is your TIME.

It is FREE TO READ, ad- and tracker-free on AO3, at the link below. You can also download it as a PDF or EPUB or MOBI or HTML or whatever a AZW3 file is.

If you like it you can hit the Kudos button or you can yell at me in the comments or on here and I'd love you forever for it πŸ’›

@skittles You may in fact have prevented a disaster by cutting it off here πŸ˜†
