Am #romanticMonday werde ich Euch einen schönen romantischen Trauspruch präsentieren. Ich habe damals als Odine und Amelie heirateten lange nach einem passenden gesucht. Hier zeige ich Euch welche ich dabei gefunden habe und schön finde.
Mehr Herzschmerz und über die Liebe findet ihr in meinen Büchern:

Dienstag ist Personaldienstag. Heute stelle ich euch mal wieder einen Charakter aus meiner Romanreihe "Odine und Amelie - ein kriminalistisches Duo" vor.
Dieses mal ist es Jack Flanagan. Der sympathische Deutsch-Amerikaner ist der Freund von Amelies "sis" Valerie und seit Herbstalbträume auch Mitglied des
Teams von Odine bei der Kriminalpolizei.

Es gibt eine neue Podcastfolge. Diesmal beschäftige ich mich mit der Frage, warum ich ausgerechnet den Weg als Selfpublisher gewählt habe.

Will an Irish trans woman’s paean to faith and ritual read like you’d expect?

Why does mourning an ally killed over a Pride flag feel so fraught?

What’s up with the power of Butch and “female masculinity?”

Since I'm starting to run into submission calls that want to see either a bird-site handle or a website, I decided to go ahead and put up my website...

I haven't published anything yet, so it's a little odd... content about books and stories that *you cannot read yet* 😅😭

If anyone wants to read my work and can help me find an agent/publisher, feel free to DM me 🤣

Happy Pride! I took the day off yesterday to catch ABC’s 5-hour livestream of Pride Across America, featuring the New York City, Chicago, and San Francisco Pride parades. Was it worth it?

Gender affects all our lives, and all our stories—but what even is it? What’s it doing, for good and for ill, in fiction? This class dives deep into those questions and more, aiming to equip writers to work with gender in informed, inclusive, purposeful, and joyful ways. Join me to learn together in 3 weeks!

Queer fiction and film has an important place too, but there’s something viscerally more powerful in reading memoir. There’s a realness that can’t be escaped; a truth that penetrates the heart. https://medium.com/prismnpen/the-mythic-power-of-your-queer-story-c2f89db4fe26?sk=e80b272b73cf856c6f8f2187840a5900 #LGBTQ #QueerWriters #Books #Memoir

Since it has been a minute, let's get this going around again.

I've created a #Discord server for #QueerWriters who are looking for a little support in their #writing journey. Created with fiction writers (including fanfic writers) over 21 in mind, this server is for those who need motivation, bulldozing through their writer's block, looking for steady kicks in the ass to get through editing, or whatever else that's preventing you from completing your WIP or hindering your progress.

Its invite only bc I don't want it to be a big server, and anyone under 18 will be considered on a case-by-case basis. So DM me for an invite. While this should be obvious, but some people are obtuse, this is a trans-friendly server.

Happy #PrideMonth! If you're a fiction writer interested in doing more/better with gender diversity & inclusion, consider my July Loft Literary class "Gender is Our Playground." I'm editing the content right now and can report it's chock full of great stuff :)

Somebody hacked a Florida traffic sign to urge people to “Kill All Gays.” Anti-#LGBTQ hatred is in vogue, normalized by hateful political rhetoric. Cities in Florida and elsewhere are canceling #Pride events as hatred spreads.

How do you parent a non-binary teen? A xennial feminist breaks down her troubled path to accepting her child. What’s with the GOP silencing queer folks over ‘decorum,’ a word they don’t seem to understand? And why is a trans woman who posted a non-competitive time in the London Marathon getting roasted? Those stories, personal essays, fiction, and poetry fill this week’s edition of Prism & Pen.

Gonna make a pinned toot for this just in case someone needs it. I've created a #Discord server for #QueerWriters who are looking for a little support in their #writing journey. Primarily for fiction writers.This is for those needing motivation, bulldozing through their writers block, steady kicks in the ass to get through your editing, and whatever else that's preventing you from completing your WIP or hindering your progress.

It's invite only at the moment, and just me, but I'm excited for others to join. So DM me for an invite. While this should be obvious, but some people are obtuse, this is a trans-friendly server. I'm using the term queer super loosely.

Created a #QueerWriters support server on discord if anyone is interested. I made it because I'm having a hell of a time getting any of my writing goals accomplished so I'm thinking an accountability buddy will help me out. Then I thought hey, I'm probably not alone, hence, discord server. I'm trying to keep it 21+ but I might let it go to 18+. Possibly on a case by case basis. Fortunately it's invite only at the moment lol.

Prism & Pen writers focus on hypocrisy this week in a spontaneous outpouring of stories.
