Snippet – Pretty

Judith is useless around any pretty girl. Plus Helen.

If you’ve read Book 2, you’ll get that. (I think.) 😅

Excerpt on pirate ship background: “You mean the part where she swooped in on dragon-back to save the day?” Emilia pushed her way through the small circle of sailors—who all fell silent at the sight of her. "Right," she said, spreading out her blood-soaked hands. “Sorry to interrupt what I assume was a conversation about me, considering all the dragon talk, but umm...” Judith lifted her eyebrows curiously, when Emilia turned toward her. “You walked off with someone's spleen,” Emilia pointed out. Judith frowned—and looked down at her hand. “Ugh!” she said, tossing the organ into Emilia's waiting hand. “Why would you hand that to me?” “You said you wanted to help,” Emilia muttered. — from GODDESS OF THE SEA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 2, by Britney Jackson.

I shared this snippet from Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 2) for #lesficfri theme, “help.”

I’m finally coming out of a migraine (I feel like I’m always coming out of a migraine these days), which means I’ve stacked up a few things that I’ll be sharing with you over the weekend. 💙

I know the news has been dark lately, but I hope you’re holding up okay. 💙

Snippet – Rule One

Rule one of dating a dragon sorceress: It’s best to save the affectionate threats for when her dragon’s not standing behind you. 🐉

"Did you just compliment me, Captain?" "No." Maria tried to wipe the blood from Em's eye with her thumb, but the steady flow made it impossible. "I was complimenting myself, actually—for my brilliant instincts in hiring you." Maria ripped part of her sleeve and tried to use the fabric to slow the blood flow, but it soaked through before she even found the source. It was in Em's hair, on her neck... Maria jerked her hands back. "Em, you keep bleeding!" "Mm." Em closed her eyes and swayed. "It's just a head wound." "Just?" Maria caught her by the arms. "I'm going to kill you." Maria didn't realize her mistake until the dragon behind her growled. — from GODDESS OF THE SEA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 2, by Britney Jackson.
Goddess of the Sea

I shared this snippet from Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 2) for the #lesficfri theme, “hair” —because I’m sure blood-soaked hair was exactly the direction everyone else went with this. 😅

Anyway, I hope you’re all doing well this week. ❤️

I’m finally feeling better (after what feels like a year), and I’m planning on sending out our newsletter tomorrow. So, keep an eye out for that. ❤️

Snippet – Eyes

A snippet from Book 1 this week. 🖤

"The first law is simple." "You're mine until death," Maria interjected. Emilia glanced at the pirate captain, her eyes wide. "That's not exactly—" Zain shook his head, clearly not amused by Maria's humor. "Unfortunately, Em, it seems our good captain is not taking this seriously." Was it a joke, though? Because those dark eyes of Maria's looked capable of stealing a lot more than gold. — from PIRATES OF ALETHARIA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 1, by Britney Jackson.
Pirates of Aletharia

I shared this one from Pirates of Aletharia (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 1) for the #lesficfri theme, “eyes.”

If you follow me on social media, you might know I’ve been mostly useless for over a week now because of a migraine. I’m currently entering that post-migraine depression where my mind punishes me for being a human with chronic illness. This is good news, though, because it means I’m nearing the end! 😅 (It also usually means my blood count’s returning to normal!) 

Anyway, if you go through this a lot, too, consider this your periodic reminder that you’re not alone. 💙

I hope this week brings you all the lovely things. 💙
