I'm currently hiding in the shade, but the laptop has ventured outside with me today 🫡☀️
I wish I could go write some seaside PhD on location at a beach, but alas the garden will have to do...
Happy pride month to me because I discovered a Victorian historical romance called A Shore Thing by Joanna Lowell with a trans hero/love interest set at the Cornish seaside!! They ride bikes together??? and apparently they hook up in a bathing machine???? I need it now!!! 😮
Happy #Pride month! For your reading pleasure, check out my latest sapphic historical, The Miseducation of Caroline Bingley! If you like the simmering yearning of Francesca/Michaela from #Bridgerton, you'll love this book.
Miseducation is the 2nd book in my *Austentatious* series 🏳️🌈
Very excited to be a late addition to the Haunted Shores research showcase this coming Wednesday! I will be ✨️showcasing✨️ a little bit of my current WIP thesis chapter on (female) gothic seasides in 19thC literature.
Huge thanks to @jfpackham.bsky.social for upgrading me from poster to panelist!
