Repost of my beloved Sebastian and Wesley from Proper Scoundrels by @allietherin.bsky.social. I had so much fun with these 🥹

Digital portraits of Sebastian and Wesley from Proper Scoundrels by Allie Therin. Sebastian is a latino man with light brown skin and longish dark brown hair, wearing brown tweet hat and a waistcoat. He is smiling at the viewer. Wesley is a white man with light skin, light brown hair, round glasses, wearing dark blue waistcoat. He is smirking at the viewer. Sebastians half of the art has yellow background, Wesleys has blue

I may not watch sportsball, but I did watch the half-time show from Bad Bunny. ¡Espectacular!

It's been endless hate from the current US administration for our Latiné communities & then for Bad Bunny to get on that stage & give that performance & end with that beautiful parade of Pan-American unity— "The only thing stronger than hate is love." 😭❤️

Quick update that I've heard from more writers who got this email from "Allie." 😖 This is NOT me; this is likely a marketing scam using my name as a...platonic author pal honey trap?? 🫠 The scammers are wild right now, y'all. Stay safe! 💜 🌈📚

Hey y'all ❤️ Apologies that I am so behind my messages but wanted to share: A fellow writer alerted me that they received a fake email from a fake Allie Therin. If you get something like this, it's NOT me. I DO like connecting with others but I DON'T do it like this.

A screenshot of a fake phishing email. It is sent from "Allie Therin" <allietherin401@gmail.com> on August 20. The text reads: Hi there, hope you’re doing well today.

I’m Allie Therin. I’m the author of LGBTQ+ romance novels, often blended with fantasy, like my Magic in Manhattan historical fantasy romance trilogy set in 1920s New York, and my Sugar & Vice urban fantasy romance series set in a contemporary alternate Seattle. My stories tend to mix magic, mystery, and romance, with plenty of slow-burn tension and emotional depth.

But I’m not here just to talk about my books. I’ve started reaching out because I truly love connecting with other authors and creators. I find it so inspiring to hear about different creative processes, whether someone’s just starting out or already published, that passion for storytelling is always something I deeply admire.

I’d love to hear more about what you’re writing, how you got started, or what excites you most about storytelling.

I can’t wait to learn more about you!

Highly recommend #RevPit! I participated in—I think 2017?—as a brand-new writer querying LIAR CITY. It wasn’t chosen, but it made two editors’ final rounds & they both gave personalized feedback. Such an encouraging experience & confidence booster (esp. when trying to query an unusual queer UF!).

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

I [32M viscount] suspect a plot to destroy magic is coming from my circles & threatening my paranormal BF [27M]. He’s certain he can handle himself—except he sacrificed his magic to save my life & it’s made him quite vulnerable & I might be a little overprotective now. A lot overprotective. AITA?

Sugar & Vice series by @allietherin.bsky.social ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A very fictional series about governmental xenophobia and the tracking, interrogating, and manipulating of citizens that it sees as dangerous and the fallout that can occur when there isn’t enough oversight. Very Very Fictional

Getting ready for another book release in my other series in June (‼️), but TS has been out one month as of today! 🥳 Thank you so much to everyone who’s read these queer alternate Seattle urban fantasy mysteries full of empaths (and bad decisions). Y’all are the BEST. ❤️ allietherin.com/liar-city/

A graphic showing a trilogy of books, including LIAR CITY (orange text over a greenish-blue Seattle), TWISTED SHADOWS (neon green text over a purplish-pink Seattle), and the third with a blank “cover coming soon” image. Small words and arrows indicate Liar City and Twisted Shadows are out now and the third book is coming soon. There is a silhouette to each side of the books representing the MCs: Reece (short) and Evan (tall). There is a quote from Twisted Shadows at the top: “You know which Care Bear you are? Bad Decisions Bear.”
