Rainy day reading
🖤🏳️‍🌈👻💀

If you're queer and into horror, you might find this book just as validating as I do.

An awesome hardcover copy of Baker Thief by @ClH2OArs arrived today. I already read it as ebook, but a physical copy that looks so nice is a great addition for my bookshelf!
I got it from https://rainbowcratebookbox.com/

Just dropped off some copies of The Dog & The Cat, The Flower Maiden and my Clowntober Art Zine at The Common Press! It's a great intersectional bookshop in Shoreditch, would highly recommend

JesusDevil popped on my radar today. I enjoyed Alexis De Veaux's Yabo and I'm looking forward to this new #book. #blackwriters #blacklgbtq #blackqueer #queerbooks https://www.akpress.org/jesusdevil.html

Cupboard Ghost is my latest web-story and the zeroth chapter will go live on 10 February at 10am AEDT.

It’s a sequel to my other stories which you can read on my website.

Tamika Wood’s Birthday Party (Part One)
https://lekendall.com/stories/part-one/
Tamika Wood’s Birthday Party is a story about love and neurodivergence and family and being queer. It’s also about being young and not really being prepared for what is happening.

I Can’t Talk About That (Tamika Part Two)
https://lekendall.com/stories/part-two/
I Can’t Talk About That is about all the things that were in Tamika Wood’s Birthday Party but it’s also about the things that are too big or too scary or too much to discuss. Even when you probably should talk about them…

That Was a Big Week for Us (Tamika Part Three)
https://lekendall.com/stories/part-three/
That Was a Big Week for Us is about all of those things but it’s also about how sometimes things happen very slowly, and other times they happen very quickly. It’s about how even when you know what you want, it can be difficult to ask for it.

I also wrote a side story in the same universe which branches off from the Tamika storyline and is an independent story.

Untitled Cello Piece
https://lekendall.com/stories/untitled-cello-piece/
Untitled Cello Piece is a story about how not being sure of your own identity makes it difficult to know why you can’t do the things you can’t do. It’s about being vulnerable and being taken advantage of and lack of connection. It’s also about not getting your needs met and how external expectations can affect you as a person.

A friend is wondering if there is a charity or nonprofit that raises funds for librarians who get jailed for keeping queer books on shelves.
Anyone know?

Halfway through “Ocean’s Echo” by #EverinaMaxwell and I have classic happy reader’s mixed feelings: I don’t want it to end — really good book! — but at the same time I can’t wait to see how it turns out.

Love the characters, the universe, everything about it. Enough complexity to make it real but I don’t get lost in the details of the world-building.

The first book, “Winter’s Orbit”, was also outstanding — same universe, different cast. Highly recommend!

@karpatenhund fave #QueerBooks in 2022:
didier eribon - returning to reims
leslie feinberg - stone butch blues
silas denver melvin - grit

eribon is a french writer, philosopher and sociologist, who helped establish #QueerStudies in france. i don’t know why i didn’t read something by him earlier, but i’m glad i’ve done so now
#StoneButchBlues is definitely a queer classic at this point, and rightfully so!
grit is a poetry collection by a gay trans masc writer, he’s sweatermuppet.tumblr.com

Looking for a fantasy book with a trans protagonist, by a trans author? You're seeking: The Story of the Hundred Promises by Neil Cochrane! Just finished it and it was beautiful.
