It took me too many damned decades of feeling broken & too much religious trauma for me to not be loud & proud that I'm queer! While most my books are M/F, that doesn’t mean they’re not queer! I write queer because I am queer & our love stories deserve to be told. With some bangin’ monster smashing!
Today, my first book, Thorn's Dove turns 3!!!
Hard to believe it's been three years since I launched it, and it changed my life forever. I'm also launching the audiobook later this month! @katrina_the_narrator + @matt_james_vo did such an AMAZING JOB!!
#monsterromance
Happy Pride Month my critterkin!! 🌈
Time to join the Pride Parade & terrify Ron DeSantis!! 🤣
In times like these, standing firm in your queerness is an act of unyielding resistance.
Be Queer, Resist Bigots!

I wasn't lying when I said there was a spice trope map, and boy is it a DOOZY! Of all my stories thus far, this one is the closest to straight (but not really) ...ocraotica? (I TRIED OKAY).
Is there more? Of COURSE there's more, but I'd rather not break the 'algo.
Also, Lwyd is Bi and Ella is Demi.
Mari Lwydmas is chock full of tropes and rep!
Spice Trope Map coming soon!

Introducing the cover for Mari Lwydmas!
I'm still working on the full piece, but here's the E-Book cover! When I was just an illustrator, I primarily created line art pieces. For Frostvale Holiday Tales, I returned to my roots and included lines.
The expected launch is 2025.
#bookcover
There is debate whether Mari Lwyd should be part of a closed practice as it has gained momentum in global pagan circles. My family has roots in Wales. Instead of copying Mari Lwyd from Welsh tradition, I developed a Mari Lwyd that would have changed over the centuries along with my Welsh ancestors.
Frostvale Village is the primary location in the Frostvale Holiday Tales series. It's home to monster & creature transplants who immigrated with humans. A ridiculously idyllic holiday locale, it's the BEST place to take your significant other on a romantic holiday.
Mari Lwydmas has:
- Cozy Small Town
- Insta-Love
- Let Me Help You Forget Him to Forever
- BBW Rep
- Shadow Daddy
- Autism Rep
- Grief Rep
- Trick-Or-Treating Zombie Horse
- Caroling to Rap Battle
- Welsh Lore
- Found Family
- Idyllic Christmas Town
- Grey Sweatpants

What is Mari Lwyd?

#marilwydmas #marilwyd #welshfolklore #wintersolstice #holidayromance #monsterromance #romantasy #carlottahughes #indieauthor #fantasyromance #writingwip
The current word count is 27,741 words, and the goal is 35-45k. The pre-order and official launch dates are still TBD I'll keep y'all posted on the progress!

"My flabbers have been ghasted." and "I will become the patron saint of your demise."
Both by I have no idea who because I saw them both randomly on the internets and they burned themselves into my retinas.
No. Their shirts are my hoard. It's their fault for smelling so good. Instead, I'll enable the situation by buying them more shirts.
