Hello!! Thank you so much for your support and your kind words! And I apologize for how long it took me to reply, I was Thinking about my answer 😂

If you're looking for more religious horror, I'd recommend @kyleskeleton and @ghostpoetics. Kyle's book The Church of the Mountain of Flesh was life changing for me, and Morgan Dante has several really wonderful books with religious themes and romance. (Also if you like vampires they have lots of vampires.) Arden Powell's The Bayou is such an excellent book as well, and they have some books that have gender noncomforming characters as well! Claude Hamesh writes some excellent religious themed work as well, check out In The Hands of an Angry G-d. I would also recommend @nicosraf, Ezra Arndt, Tyler Battaglia, Enoli Lee, Larkin Bryne, and Lucien Burr.

For more body horror or darker horror themed stuff, I'd recommend @wolfehorror as well as Achilles King from starshinepub. Claustrophilia by Ezra Blake was a big influence for me writing Eyetooth, so if you want some heavy body horror, check that one out! Gemini Fletcher has a book that I still think about to this day, Gutted.

@thornyfilth has some really excellent horror as well as some contemporary trans fiction that I absolutely adore! If you like darker contemporary, also check out Sera Quim. I'd also recommend Rien Gray for gorgeous prose and complex fantasy worlds, as well as dark contemporary work with nonbinary and sapphic rep. @ladzwriting has some excellent world building and darker themes as well! @tdcloud is another author I'd recommend!!

Some more authors:

Felix Graves

Adik Graves

Johannes T. Evans

Sancta Seraphina (has a religious novel out!)

@emrynbird

@ninawolv3rina

And Michaela literally has No Boys Allowed stamped across her forehead. They're Lesbians.

I promise you, if they gave me any inclination that they liked men then I'd support it but they're not.

Were they a healthy couple? Did they have a happy ending? Did they even happen?
