Have you written a book? I'd love to feature you in an author Q&A or your book on my book release radar.
Here's my website if you'd like to be featured on it. I don't charge anyone anything (though tips are welcome). I'm just a writer trying to help other writers.

Please reach out if you'd like to participate!

Happy Pride, Y'all! As a Queer, disabled writer, I thought I out to celebrate with a sale.
Aftermath and Airphibious have Queer, female leads, The Wood has key Gay characters, and the (ongoing) collection of essays Diverse Representation in the Comic Book Genre regularly discusses Queerness in comic books.

Happy LGBTQ+ Pride! It's Pride all year long in my house, what about yours?
If you're a reader, my books are on sale at 50% off all month in honor of pride! Come check them out on my Itch page. I'm not a romance reader, but I do center Queer and disabled characters in fantasy and sci-fi.

So I built a space meant to help fill this need. On Underground Bookshelf, you can find short stories, poems, memoirs, essays, book reviews, indie author Q&As, book release announcements, writing contests, and a kids resource corner. All of this is free!
In the summer months, I bring a shelf full of secondhand books to community events to give away for free.
If you need this space, come on by. I made it for you (and me…so…us): https://www.underground-bookshelf.com/
In case you don’t know, over the last few years, I’ve been building Underground Bookshelf, a platform dedicated to diversity in literature.
As a Queer, chronically ill writer, I wish I saw better representation in the books I had access to - and I know I’m not the only one.
Come visit my table at the Roxbury Poetry Festival on June 27th!
This is the first event Underground Bookshelf is booked for this summer. I’m looking for a few more as well.

#Boston, MA folks! I’m looking for bookish events that take vendors. Know any?
One of the events I usually attend is canceled this year.
I bring free secondhand books to community events in the summer!
