WE ARE, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US, A STAR

She remembered an echo, a watercolor wash of a memory from the night before. Running down slippery wooden steps, laughing and screaming, because see, look! It was snowing! And yes, that’s right, she had halted kissing to run outside into the sudden snow squall. River followed her, smiling at her while snow clung to the embers of his hair, and he was beautiful, did he know? She asked him if he knew. But he ignored her and gently suggested she needed to maybe go back inside, and Margaux refused in the spirited and good-natured way a drunken college co-ed or a toddler might. River told her the snow was pretty but she wasn’t wearing boots, at least come inside and put on boots before running around in the snow.

DON'T GO GENTLY is a Robin Hood retelling set in the United States in the very near future during total societal and technological collapse.

This is a TRUE retelling, meaning that the source material is heavily referenced and cleverly re-imagined. DGG is post-apocalyptic, solar punk, hope punk, sci-fi, cli-fi, romance, adventure, and a whole lot more, defying traditional publishing expectations and upending tropes and rules of all stripes.

DON'T GO GENTLY is a queer retelling of Robin Hood set in a near-future Madison, WI during societal collapse.

If you are desperate to read about a bisexual, camo-wearing, compound bow-wielding Robin Hood taking out “not-so-nice” agents in the beautiful Driftless region of the Great Lakes, well, me too, so hold my beer and watch me full send it.

DGG is as ungovernable as its protagonist—it cannot be contained by the traditional publishing industry’s stifling genre descriptions. It is dystopian AND hopepunk. It is action-packed and deeply thoughtful. The Earth in post-apocalypse is green and thriving. There is a slow-burn romance and love triangle and neither are what you are expecting, trust.

It is also vehemently, proudly, and unapologetically sticks it to the ruling class without pulling any punches. Because Robin would throw the first molotov. ❤️‍🔥

DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT

RAGE, RAGE AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT.

(We couldn’t have known, and I should forgive us for that. We couldn’t have known how bad the damage was, how complete, how final. The old world had not gone out with a whimper at all, but with bombs bursting in air.)

This is a good-guys-win and bad-guys-get-what-they-deserve joint. If you are desperate to read about a bisexual Robin Hood taking out violent fascist thugs masquerading as Federal agents, well, me too, so hold my beer and watch me fucking work.

DGG is a genre-bending kaleidoscope of a story: speculative fiction, sci-fi, horror, dystopia, cli-fi, post-apocalypse, romance, solar punk and hope punk.
