omg thank you for asking.... I LOVE reccing books

These are all short (under 200 pages):

Fantasy: Princess Floralinda and the Forty-Flight Tower by Tamsyn Muir

Horror adjacent: We Have Always Lived In The Castle by Shirley Jackson. The Body by Stephen King (more of a coming of age). Come Closer by Sara Gran. Wylding Hall by Elizabeth Hand (more gothic fiction). My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite (more of a psychological thriller)

Speculative Fiction / Scifi: One Day All This Will Be Yours by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Tread of Angels by Rebecca Roanhorse. The Freeze-Frame Revolution by Peter Watts. Hospital Station by James White. Nine Princes in Amber by Roger Zelazny

Romance: Blood Sweat Glitter by Iona Datt Sharma (f/f) His Royal Secret by Lilah Pace (m/m)

Not short but it helps me in a reading slump: sport nonfiction! here are some

Short stories collection, scifi (think that 70s feminist speculative fiction vibe): Her Smoke Rose Up Forever by James Tiptree

China Glaze - Takes Two to Mango

I simply had to pick an orange for you, I was stuck between two and settled on this one because it's so BRIGHT (just like you!) but it also has a really beautiful gold shimmer running through it which to me really represents your whimsical vibes perfectly.

Again my picture is not very colour accurate but this is almost neon IRL and to me your are very bold in the best way, alongside your amazing graphics which are always so distinctive and have that amazing Tan sparkle to them.

I...haven’t noticed. :/

But yea somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me

if you look at her and concentrate on Uma, that's all you see, and if you look at her and concentrate on Ethan, THAT'S all you see, and I guess that's literally just GENETICS is, but it's still WILD to me

🌩️ Share something funny/cracky from your WIP

This is neither, but it's the best I've got! From one of the future TRoS chapters

“James!” Seb called out to grab not Vowles’ but Allison’s attention. “Do you want a drink?” He quickly gestured to the small coffee machine as he retrieved his filled mug and stepped over to get milk from the small fridge below the counter.

“I’m afraid my constitution still isn’t strong enough,” James waved the bottle of water in his hand as he took a few steps towards Seb. “I thought you hated the stuff?”

“I do,” Seb nodded as he stirred a sachet of brown sugar into the mug. “But when you do Le Mans, it becomes a necessity to get through the race.” He added with a small laugh. “I’m also freezing!” They both shared a quiet laugh as they headed over to their seats.

☔Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?

I have been rotating the idea of turning the Gewis modern royalty AU ficlet I wrote for the Hypersoft fest last year into a full work. Definitely not on the scale of TRoS or LITFL though, the idea I have in my head is to use what I wrote for Hypersoft as a prologue, and then have a chapter each for each following season (Summer, Autumn, Winter and then back to Spring again).

I love the whole marriage of convenience idea and that it's somewhat a twist on fake dating but not quite???? idk I really loved what I wrote and I can definitely see a lot of potential with it!
