Romances with protagonists who create aren’t a new thing, but I feel like I’ve been picking up some great ones recently. These are folks who draw, paint, sculpt, or otherwise develop something gorgeous out of nothing (or maybe out of raw materials), and then we get to watch them fall in love! Sometimes, they might

There are few things I love more than a good fairytale retelling. Stories of Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood and Snow White are such cultural touchpoints that they can be used to create really remarkable and compelling tales, just with the threads of a fairytale twisted around to create something new. Maybe it’s because

I’ve been writing about bi and lesbian books for more than a decade now, and in that time, there’s been a constant refrain that gets under my skin: “There’s no good lesbian books.” This is often said by readers of M/M books who refuse to read any other queer books, but bafflingly, it’s also frequently

I have mixed feelings about short story collections. I love short stories, but I often find that whole collections fall short.
