I guess it’s not hard to look well-behaved, standing next to Captain Maria Welles. 😅
This week’s snippet was for the #lesficfri theme, “trust.”
I hope you’re all safe and well, and I’m wishing you the best week possible! 💙
Snippet – Trust Me
Snippet – Care
Their love language is—and always will be—threats. 😅
This week’s snippet was for the #lesficfri theme, “care.” 💙
Snippet – Attraction
Last week’s #lesficfri theme was “attraction.” So, I shared this line from Book 1. 💙
I hope you’re having a wonderful week. 💙
And for any audiobook readers who missed the announcement for the Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 2) audiobook, you can find that here. 💙

We have a date! 💙💙💙

Thank You
Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, and Dragons: Book 2) has reached its second little milestone: two hundred reviews and ratings on Amazon. 💙
Thank you so much for
reviewing—and for sharing in Em and Maria’s journey. 💙💙💙💙
Happy Holidays
For those who celebrate, I hope you had an awesome Christmas, and I hope your holidays are going well. 💙

Sending lots of love and well wishes your way. 💙
In case you missed it:
The very entertaining literary podcast Wham, Bam, Thank You, Ma’am discussed Pirates of Aletharia last month. 💙🏴☠️🌈💙
Listening to this episode left me both giddy (because holy-cow-that’s-my-book-oh-my-gosh 😅) and with a sore stomach because I laughed so much. 💙
It’s so much fun. 💙
I’ve included links for anyone below who’d like to check it out. 💙
I have a new snippet to share with you, an announcement, and a newsletter to send out, but until then, happy New Year’s Eve! 💙
Siren Teeth
Silly human. 😅
This week’s snippet fit the #lesficfri theme on Twitter, which was “wish.” 💙
I know this was a bit of a random one, but I hope you enjoyed it, anyway! 💙
I’m on a mission right now to hunt down all of the messages I missed when my physical and mental health were taking turns being awful. So, if the message can be found, I hopefully will find it and reply soon! 💙
I hope you have an awesome week, and for anyone already celebrating, happy holidays! 💙
Goddess of the Sea and a (very blue-ish) Cover
Have you seen the cover for Goddess of the Sea yet? 💙
I shared it in the newsletter and on social media in August, but if you’re not following any of those, you might’ve missed it.
I’ve been taking care of sick kids lately and forgetting literally everything, but now that they’re feeling better (yay!), I’ll try to catch it all up.
So, if you missed it, you can see the (very blue-ish) cover below! 💙
Lesbians, Pirates, and Dragons: Book 2

🏴☠️ lesbian pirates (obviously)
🏳️🌈 healing from trauma
🏴☠️ dragon-riding
🏳️🌈 ship cats getting much-deserved treats

Eeek, what do you think? 🫣
December! 💙
