Pride Sales and Upcoming Events

Wow, okay, so there's a lot going on this month and as usual, I decided to wait until the last minute before updating the newsletter. Let's talk about sales first and then we'll get into conventions.

June 13-15th: Monster Manor Book Fair

The graphic is pretty self explanatory, but here's the long and short of it. One of my new novellas is in the big 114 story bundle on itchio. That's so many stories for just $25! Wild! Insane! The sale lasts for a week, so be sure to snag the bundle while you can. And hey, if you'd rather just grab one title and not a hundred, you can pick up LETIFER, my vampire crime novel, for $0.99 through this weekend. You can find a full list of participating titles here: https://www.monstermanor.org/

June 22-July 1st: Pride Book Fair

This bundle is strictly for itchio and I'll technically be in two bundles under its umbrella. The first will be a Historical Romance bundle that will feature another new novella, SWEET MOTHER, I CANNOT WEAVE. This title will also be in their massive, overarching Big Pride Bundle alongside over 100 titles, so you have the option to grab just the genre you prefer versus the whole dang bunch. I'll post graphics and more info as we get closer to the sale, so keep an eye out on social media for this!

June 20-July 11th: CITRUS CON Summer Festival

If you haven't heard of Citrus Con, you're missing tf out. It's THE contemporary BL convention and is a fully online event. You can still grab a ticket to participate (this year's event runs June 20-22nd), and this year, they've decided to host an itchio bundle of curated titles. Yours truly somehow managed to pass muster and get in! You can grab my eroguro medfet toxic yaoi novellete LIVING DEAD BOY as part of the bundle. From what I've been told, it'll be Pay What You Want with a minimum purchase amount of $15. It should be good and eclectic in what's on tap. I'll have more posts when we get more shareable info, so keep an eye out and check out Citrus Con itself while you wait.

Events

HWQS

Most pressing of these actually isn't a physical event, but an online one! Some of you who follow me on social media likely saw my graphics announcing my Hot Wet Queer Summer participation. I'm happy to report that LAMBENT is progressing on schedule and the character art I've commissioned for it is GORGEOUS. I'll be revealing this and more teasers when we hit the Q&A portion of the event in July, but be prepared: it's absolutely awesome.

If you haven't seen talk of LAMBENT yet, here's the gist.

I'm having a good time with this project and so far, it's turning out much better than the previous iterations ever did. I'm hopeful I'll have this in a releasable state come late August, so get hyped!

July Conventions

I've got two in July, both in Michigan. Come find me 4th of July weekend at the Otaku Summer Bash in Ann Arbor and July 18-20th in Kalamazoo at Dokidokon. Both of these are new events for me, so I'm really excited to see how they go. I'll have limited copies of HIRAETH with me for those who ask about it, so if you still need to complete your Tempest Collection, this is a great place to do it!

August Conventions

Another two convention month, though these one are back-to-back. My very first author convention hits August 15-17th and is Once Upon a Con, a romantasy book convention held in DC. Given I'll be flying with my stock, I'm going to have limited titles and limited numbers of said titles. If you know you're attending and would like to have something specific from me, the convention has this cool pre-order integration site you can use to make sure I take into account your needs before the convention: https://beventi.co/orderform/gfmmbqufar

If you want titles like HIRAETH (or any of the Tempest books for that matter), please use Beventi to let me know, otherwise I will not bring any with me.

The following weekend I will be at Matsuricon in Columbus, OH--one of my very favorite conventions to attend and table at! I'll have limited HIREATHS here but a full array of merch, totes, and goodies, so definitely swing by if you haven't stopped by one of my tables in awhile. I think you'll be astonished at how much my stock as grown!

Wrap Up

So much stuff!!! So much stuff, and still so much going on behind the scenes that I haven't even told you guys about yet. I'm hoping to have a lot of big updates to drop as we get deeper into summer (maybe even ARC requests and a new merch box pre-order...). It's gonna be so fun. I hope you guys are excited, and if you are, please help circulate any promos you see me post on social media to help get others excited too. A fun game for today (or for any of these upcoming sales events honestly) is if you see a highlight about one of my titles, QRT it or leave a comment to let others know your favorite thing about it! It's a great way to bring in new readers and hearing you guys gush is one of my favorite things in the world.

Anywho, I'm on the clock and I've gotta get back to my real job. Thanks for the support as always, and happy Pride!
