My saga "Vampires and Spies" explores a future in which vampires see humans as a primitive species, barely aware they exist, until the two must come together against forces of unspeakable darkness.

Had a lovely photo sent by some friends who received their Quartz Storm pre-order early. They (understandably) don't want pics in their PJs shared across social media, so instead please accept my skilful artistic rendition of the happy moment.

“That domino mask won’t fool anyone.”

“Its magic clouds perceptions.”

“Fine, but why wear a red cape too?”

“Indestructible, sentient fabric that grants flight is very handy,” he says as the cape twists and lifts a silken pseudo-fist. “And she has a great right hook!”

The Scarlet Ball by @nghivo.bsky.social is here, and there's a fancy Waterstones exclusive edition if you're quick!

A world ruled by appetite and ambition, and a dark and gothic tale of an ex-courtesan looking for a new identity ..

#WIPSnips The word for October 7th is COMPARISON

No "comparison" in NOMARA, but Kate does make a few. In this snip she "compares" sex with queens to sex with her. It's an illuminating snip and I hope a funny one. The sex-obsessed nomari can be over the top romantic.
#WritingCommunity #WriteSky #SFF

Text excerpt from NOMARA, a science fiction WIP by L.L. Stephens. Snip shows Kate discovering the Eshuuni Queen's pleasure pavilions, including the famous one Arasend built especially for claiming Kharys. 

      A series of pavilions, some open to the night, some enclosed in shells of wonder, each more splendid than the one before it, ringed the drone enclave like jewels. They passed them all. At their center stood a chamber that even in darkness struck hearts still with beauty. All was pale and shimmering, ghostly columns rising above floors of moonlight. A high bed commanded the dais beneath an open portal through which thin clouds scuttled across the faces of two moons. The bed’s pillars, carved of some smooth pale stone, twisted like smoke above a platform as serene and cool as marble. Silk gleamed on that bed, and precious stones spangled the unseen ceiling like stars. 
       The Jade Pavilion.
       It’s an altar, Kate realized, astonished. They take their virgins like offerings. That profound sensuality, possessive and unyielding, assailed her. Arasend had built this place for Kharys, had taken him upon that shining bed, a youth so beautiful she had made claiming his virgin body an act of worship no less transcendent than that of a drone dying in her arms.  
       Kate’s heart sank. Compared to that, sex with me must be like blowing his nose.

Quartz Storm book cover. Words can't do this stunning art justice, but I'll try!

The colour scheme is a dark turquoise, black, and gold. The background is a mottled turquoise, fading to black at the edges. Quartz Storm is in large gold ornate letters with a stylised tree wrapped about its letters. A campfire is at the base of the tree, with fungi and daggers to either side. The tree roots and branches intertwine about the daggers to meet about half way up the illustration. Ornate gold corners and a border, along with further turquoise detailing surrounds the book edges.

At the top is written the author name, LE Draig, and at the base, book one of the Quartz Storm series

Around the book are curly arrows with the phrases: queer characters; rebellion; save the sister, save the world; reluctant heroine; epic fantasy adventure; overthrow the patriarchy!

From Miraculous Horrors: Dainn is a huge problem for Riven because he looks exactly like Antony, who has been dead for five years. #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #SciFi #ScienceFiction #SFF

   “Let me see,” he said. 
   The gentleness in his voice caught her off guard. For the majority of their short acquaintance, Dainn had been gruff, combative, agitated, or silent. That made it easy to avoid making unhelpful comparisons between him and Antony. Antony had rarely been any of those things. He’d been good natured, almost to a fault.

So far, my short story "Last Call" has been the most-read story in the latest edition of AntipodeanSF. If you have time, give it a read and let me know what you think.
