I love starting the day with a negative commission number with Amazon. This comes about when someone buys one of my ebooks, reads it, then returns it for a refund. Amazon then dings authors for more than the commission paid for that sale. Arrrgh. This was popularized online, apparently as a cool way to getContinue reading “Amazon Blues”

I’m thinking of doing some of my books as audio books. Any interest in that from readers? It may take some time and effort to figure out how to do this, but it might be fun if readers are interested.

I just read one of my own books from last year: Short Stuff. And I gotta say, I think it’s a heckuva of a T-Tale. No wonder it’s consistently one of my most popular offerings. No magic spells, no Lovecraftian cosmic malevolence, just a story of transgender transition with romance and sex and…well, I wasContinue reading “Short Stuff”

I realize this name has been used in some recent popular fiction, but it originated in the 1939 fantasy novel by T.H. White of that same name, a somewhat overlooked classic nowadays. White’s beautiful and powerful book was a continuation of his earlier and better known novel, The Sword In The Stone. I just wantedContinue reading “The Queen of Air and Darkness…”

Was uploaded late yesterday to Amazon’s Kindle Vella, so it should be available sometime later today. In this episode, “Aftermath”, our teen trans witch enjoys a bit of respite and momentary triumph. The shadow of Abaddon seems lifted. But who is the Queen of Air and Darkness?

Now that the gloriously macabre month of October is well underway, I thought I would suggest a few fright-filled T-Tales for the discerning trans reader. There’s Devil’s Due, available as a Kindle ebook, about a famed horror writer who is in the process of being cancelled for his boorish behavior, until a mysterious benefactor providesContinue reading “Happy Halloween!”

Is now uploaded to Kindle Vella on Amazon. Another chapter in my tale of Shenandoah, trans teen witch in training. Just in time, as Halloween approaches, for a tale of tricks and treats. And monsters.

One thing that strikes me, in multiple reviews of my books on Amazon, is the number of whiny complaints there are about perceived unfairness to conservatives and religion in my writing. I mean, the transphobia of so many conservatives and many, many religious leaders is so obvious and public that it is astonishing to meContinue reading “Snowflakes…”

Was just uploaded to Kindle Vella, so it should be available for readers tomorrow. What is blood magic? What is the disturbing news from Silver Moon Academy? What does Shenandoah like on her pizza? Check out episode 23 to find out?

Is now available on Kindle Vella, for those following this episodic Transgender Tale of a teenaged trans witch-in-training. Our heroine Shenandoah is learning the ropes at Silver Moon Academy, and trying to deal with the aftermath of an encounter with Abaddon. Not to mention, she has to also deal with the presence of Joanne Knurring,Continue reading “Episode 22 of Transfiguration…”
