    MORIBUND Nominated for a Cybils Award!

    Dear Readers, THANK YOU! I'm so excited that MORIBUND has been nominated for a Cybils Award in the YA Speculative Fiction category. But even more importantly, just knowing that you love MORIBUND and all things CIRCUIT FAE makes my dark heart so happy. When I started writing about Syl and Rouen's adventures, I was told by some people that queer fiction wouldn't sell, that it wasn't a smart career decision, that, if only I wrote about straight, white, cisgender characters, I'd

    GIE Reads: The Queen of Ieflaria

    Synopsis: Princess Esofi of Rhodia and Crown Prince Albion of Ieflaria have been betrothed since they were children but have never met. At age seventeen, Esofi’s journey to Ieflaria is not for the wedding she always expected but instead to offer condolences on the death of her would-be husband. But Ieflaria is desperately in need of help from Rhodia for their dragon problem, so Esofi is offered a new betrothal to Prince Albion’s younger sister, the new Crown Princess Adale.

    GIE's 20-Word Review: Style

    Hello, my pretties and all you sleeper-princesses out there! This week for my twenty word or less (who's counting?) review, I'm talking about Style, an LGBTQ YA by Chelsea M. Cameron. SYNOPSIS Kyle Blake likes plans. So far, they’re pretty simple: Finish her senior year of high school, head off to a good college, find a cute boyfriend, graduate, get a good job, get married, the whole heterosexual shebang. Nothing is going to stand in the way of that plan. Not even Stella Lewi

    Why Write Lesbian Heroes?

    I’ve been asked a lot lately why I write lesbian heroes. The answer seems simple: I'm gay and I'm part of the LGBTQ community. Makes sense, right? But the more I get asked this question, the more I think that answer really is too simple. It's easy to say "Well, I'm gay," and just leave it at that. But here's the thing: Growing up, I never had any heroes who were like me. Growing up, my favorite heroines were Princess Leia, Buffy, Sarah Connor, Eowyn. I was a huge Star Wars fa

    GIE’s Brief Synop Of Fire and Stars by Audrey Colthurst tells the story of Mare and Denna, two princesses who are as different as the realms they come from. Denna is arranged to marry Mare’s brother, but the only sparks that are flying are between her and Mare. When a plot to plunge their kingdoms into war surfaces, they join forces, but their love threatens to put them and the whole kingdom in hot water.
