New book alert! A Holmes/Watson queer anthology called When the Rose Speaks Its Name. The proceeds of this one go to LGBTQ youth at risk in the UK! I have two tiny, connected Holmes/Watson stories in it (adapted from the Haunting of Baker Street series) but there are heaps of other wondefful stories if you've read those, and illustrations too!

My newest publication came in. Now available on all the Amazons. May be available in other bookstores later this year. My play “A Time For Dolls” is a charming tale about sewing, survival cannibalism, spouse-swapping, and how people first learned to shit and give birth. @indigenousauthors#IndigenousCreatives#anthology#Bookstodon#WritingCommunity
