#LGBTQWriteAThon October 10:

My week wasn't great, I've had headaches and my dizziness is high for some reason... But I did some writing earlier in the week and I pushed through to finish my trailer and streaming video for book bazaar! Glad to have those done.

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 10:

Avari is hiding superhuman abilities and the fact that he's a villain-ish (if vigilante justice counts)

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 8:
Alright trying to catch up/come out of my hole of misery

Avari's favorite outfit? Black jeans, tshirts, boots, and jacket. Black, black, everything black

A person sitting holding a flame. He wears all black and has black hair

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 11: line share - mysterious

Chayton is an odd one, a mystery.

Yet, as interesting as his lack of character judgment is, that’s one mystery I don’t plan to solve.

#QueerWritersChat A5: No promo for me, per usual. Instead, it's book rec request time!

What's a queer horror book published in the last 5 years that you read and enjoyed?

Thanks for the chat! If you’re interested in a cozy horror novella to kick off your fall, check out my new release: The Witch of the Wood! It’s out now! 🪾🥀🖤

Uni: books2read.com/u/bw6gwP
Itch: applesncinnamon.itch.io/the-witch-of...
Ko-Fi: ko-fi.com/alexlarkspur

Over the background of a dark forest, the cover of The Witch of the Wood by Alex Larkspur with the blurb of the book next to it.
Blurb:
There is a witch hiding in the trees of Hatwick Wood. They are a steward of the wood, caring for the alders, maples, and cedar within, watching over the home of the beasts and birds. The people who survive on the generosity of Hatwick Wood—every denizen from Farbreak at the south edge to Northpost on the opposite side—respects the witch. Everyone knows the witch is the forest caretaker, and if anything ever went wrong, they need to be found to mend it.
When Hatwick Wood is cursed, the witch must be found. It is up to Milo Ashton, an unremarkable member of the Ashton hunting clan, to venture into the cursed forest and find the witch. But soon, he is cursed himself. A mysterious hermit named Cam finds him and swears that he can help Milo lift the curse. Milo is torn between the magnetic draw he feels towards Cam and the certainty that Cam is hiding something from him. Milo must find the witch, lift the curse, and reckon with his own feelings before he is consumed by the wood.

my book about a 43yo autistic guy who has a gay/lowkey monsterfucker awakening after getting lost in an enchanted forest was just featured on a big Goodreads list, and I think you should read it!
