Snippet – Sword

The way to a womanโ€™s heart is, of course, a sword. (Literally and figuratively.)

A snippet from Book 1 this time! ๐Ÿ–ค

Excerpt on candlelit background: โ€œHow are you liking the sword?โ€ The truth was that Emilia loved it, but sheโ€™d never admit as much. โ€œI'll need to stab you with it before I can say for sure.โ€ Maria chuckled at that. โ€œYou'll have your chance.โ€ โ€œIs that a promise, Captain?โ€ โ€” from PIRATES OF ALETHARIA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 1, by Britney Jackson.

Iโ€™ll probably share another snippet within the next day or so (because Iโ€™m like two weeks behind on them here ๐Ÿ˜…), but until then, I hope you have the best day possible! ๐Ÿ–ค๏ฟผ๏ฟผ

Snippet – Stare

In Emโ€™s defense, Mariaโ€™s thinking-about-killing-you stare and thinking-about-kissing-you stare look awfully similar. ๐Ÿ˜…

Snippet on blue background with two swords crossed and a dragon separating the text: โ€œWait. The captain stares at me?โ€ Judith arched her eyebrows, as if Emilia had just proven her point. โ€œConstantly. It's amazing you don't notice.โ€ โ€” from GODDESS OF THE SEA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 2, by Britney Jackson.

Iโ€™ve been a little absent from social media lately because with Motherโ€™s Day so close (here in the U.S., at least), Iโ€™ve been in a bit of a spiral. The good news isโ€ฆthis has happened every year since her death, so I know to expect it now.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and Iโ€™m sending extra, extra love this week to anyone who has lost a parent. I know the reminders are everywhere right now, but I hope you still have some happy moments. ๐Ÿ’™

Snippet – Pretty

Judith is useless around any pretty girl. Plus Helen.

If youโ€™ve read Book 2, youโ€™ll get that. (I think.) ๐Ÿ˜…

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

Iโ€™m finally coming out of a migraine (I feel like Iโ€™m always coming out of a migraine these days), which means Iโ€™ve stacked up a few things that Iโ€™ll be sharing with you over the weekend. ๐Ÿ’™

I know the news has been dark lately, but I hope youโ€™re holding up okay. ๐Ÿ’™

Snippet – Rule One

Rule one of dating a dragon sorceress: Itโ€™s best to save the affectionate threats for when her dragonโ€™s not standing behind you. ๐Ÿ‰

"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, actuallyโ€”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. โ€” from GODDESS OF THE SEA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 2, by Britney Jackson.

Anyway, I hope youโ€™re all doing well this week. โค๏ธ

Iโ€™m finally feeling better (after what feels like a year), and Iโ€™m planning on sending out our newsletter tomorrow. So, keep an eye out for that. โค๏ธ

Snippet – Eyes

A snippet from Book 1 this week. ๐Ÿ–ค

"The first law is simple." "You're mine until death," Maria interjected. Emilia glanced at the pirate captain, her eyes wide. "That's not exactlyโ€”" 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. โ€” from PIRATES OF ALETHARIA, LESBIANS, PIRATES, & DRAGONS: BOOK 1, by Britney Jackson.

If you follow me on social media, you might know Iโ€™ve been mostly useless for over a week now because of a migraine. Iโ€™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 Iโ€™m nearing the end! ๐Ÿ˜… (It also usually means my blood countโ€™s returning to normal!) 

Anyway, if you go through this a lot, too, consider this your periodic reminder that youโ€™re not alone. ๐Ÿ’™

I hope this week brings you all the lovely things. ๐Ÿ’™
