As Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month comes to a close, I thought I would follow the success of my article celebrating forthcoming LGBTQ+ books for #IndieApril by recommending some LGBTQ+ books with AAPI characters and/or written by AAPI authors.

My overall sales for Indie April were the same as any other month, but I did sell one book to Australia and another to the Netherlands. International sales are always magical, because I have no idea how those readers find my books.😊

Is #IndieApril a thing here? I need to be better about using Mastodon. Anyway, here's my book Combat Orders. It's really more like my novel Parallel with 3 bonus stories.

Combat Orders https://a.co/d/7Y8PMHm

THE DAY WE ATE GRANDAD is Adult cosmic horror, full of messy queers handling generational trauma badly. Our protag is a selfish eldritch playboy with the power to end the world, and it's got a lot of body horror, depression, grief, guilt and apocalyptic death cults. Follow me for updates, or sign up to my newsletter in my link above! #bookstadon #indie #indieapril

I've been too busy/disorganised to plan any promotion for #IndieApril 😭😳 , but here's a list of my books.

https://mhthaung.com/books/

Other than The Sapphire Solution, they're available in multiple stores.

Not sure where to start? For light-hearted adventure, try The Diamond Device. If you prefer a more thoughtful pace, A Quiet Rebellion: Guilt explores infectious paranormal powers and how they shape society.
