GUESS WHAT? Go on, guess. It's Xena & Callisto again, you may remember them from other such posts of mine like, 'Xena x Callisto,' & the surprise sequel, 'More Xena x Callisto,' plus more. It's the one with Xena standing over Callisto telling her to stay down and Callisto is like, "Gladly <3" y'know, classic Callisto stuff. I added a little background of GREENERY, like the threat of a fern and a whisper of some grass, stuff like that. Plus some peachy pink sky. #myart
Added a background to this Xena/Callisto piece so I could make some nice prints and I think it turned out PEACHY

Two cards. Illustration showing the character from the waist up in the style of a playing card. The V-diamond half shows a woman with red hair in a bun wearing a purple pelisse and white gown with the handle of an umbrella in her gloved hand. In the reverse ?-diamond half she is dressed in masculine masquerade attire and is wearing a Carnivale mask with the hilt of a sword in her hand. Illustration showing the character from the waist up in the style of a playing card. The upper half W-heart shows a man with short tousled brown hair in a navy cutaway coat and violet waistcoat with his hand on his chest. The reverse F-heart shows a woman in a violet gown with a hand on her chest. The illustrations are the same people.
One of the best parts about being an author is getting to work with artists you admire, and I am so, so glad Vintage Books commissioned @haridraws.bsky.social to create character cards for A LADY FOR ALL SEASONS.
The physical cards are even more gorgeous, if that's possible
Book cover for Finding Bliss by Kay Claire. Blue/purple background with woman in goth outfit sitting on a red couch, looking down at a man wearing a tie-dye shirt, who is pouring tea at a coffee table.
Surprise! Finding Bliss is back, with a new cover and a bonus 3K sex scene added to the epilogue!
I was able to get the re-release done in time to participate in @darkchibishadow.bsky.social's TransHet jam on Itchio!

A long haired girl, sitting at a cluttered art table in a cabin, is dreamily thinking of another girl. They're both camp councilors, and the other girl is the swim instructor.
Getting a summer job as a camp councillor is a great way to make money, expand your horizons and meet all sorts of exciting, new people...

Posting about this again because ComicFury still needs our support! Here's the latest thread from Kyo comicfury.com/forum/viewth...
A vibrant, pulp-cover style painted illustration of two butches playing pool. Nicky leans over the pool table toward the viewer to make her shot, while Henry chalks her cue in the background - clearly looking at the view of Nicky's ass instead of the game at hand.
A close-up painting in the same style. Henry is now seated on the edge of the pool table with Nicky's hands all over her. Their game is clearly forgotten as they make out.
Two butches dating each other might have been frowned on in lesbian life of the 1950s, but no one said anything about a friendly game of pool... π±

the problem is bigotry, but the tool they're using to spread it is *the concept of pornography*. as long as we accept the idea that "pornography" is
1. meaningfully distinct from other forms of art, and
2. inherently bad or shameful
it will continue to be a weapon conservatives can use against us!

I've been getting back into comics while I wait for more info from my concept job, and I thought I'd make a post about something very important to me, which is COMIC PANEL VARIATION and HOW TO THINK ABOUT IT.
Two women in victorian (ish) dresses sit in the middle of the party, both retreating their hands away from the last slice of cake, glancing at each other in nervous embarrassment
Oh no. Thereβs only one slice of cake left and me and my crush reached for it at the same time and accidentally touched. Whatever shall we do?

NEW VID! King Louis XIV had a fistula that urgently needed surgery. Amazingly he survived, and the legend goes that the courtiers of Versailles then became obsessed with having a fistula and demanded the surgery for themselves. Is this really true? Come learn with me!
