I'm getting some very kind messages of support, many surrounding the concept of money, and how law suits are expensive. Please do not worry about me. Instead, I wish to turn your wallets toward a lovely group of people who brough me support, joy, and/or distraction in the past three years. 🧵

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Finally had some brainspace today to start jotting down ideas for a novel that's been kicking around in my head for YEARS. They bear little relation to any notes I made for earlier versions, but I don't mind. I had to get those ideas down before thinking how I might make it better.

At the pre-meeting for a panel I let drop in very uncool fashion that I've never been as keen to do a panel as I am for this one, and the moderator asked why. First, it's at the Stratford Festival! Second, it's an actor, a scholar and a novelist (me)! Third, it's about fairies! Anyway it's today!

Gabrielle Steele ⚔️ Echoes of Chaos out now! @eldris.thellian.com · 18/09/2026

Well, now that I've established most people DON'T think the cover is genAI (phew, because it's not!) Desperate to destroy the twisted beast that was once the woman she loved, an outcast makes a costly deal with an imprisoned immortal. - cat companion - empathic bonds - prophecies - Dual POV 💙📚🪐

A graphic with text and the book cover for Echoes of Chaos by Gabrielle Steele. Header text: "Out in 6 days!"

The text below:

“And do you have an answer for me yet?” Matthias flipped the dagger, catching it deftly.

“What answer?” Arlan remembered perfectly well what Matthias had asked him last year. He still didn’t have a good answer.

“Why do you want to see the archmage when you know it’s pointless?”

“It’s not pointless. Not if I can get her to admit what happened.”

“What difference would it make? The manor fire, those deaths, it was the result of one mage’s twisted ambition. Even if he were alive to pay for his crimes, the dead would still be dead. Why put yourself through going there?” He flipped the dagger again. This time when he caught it, he stepped forwards and held the point to Arlan’s ribs, right over the scar that covered his side.

This thread. But also, the reason you want to call it a romance is a perceived advantage in marketing/sales, etc. If what you give people is not what you promised, you don't get the advantage. This is only controversial to people who don't want to write romance but don't realize it yet. 🤷🏾‍♀️

This is the core philosophy that undergirds my own approach to worldbuilding. Every world (including the one we live in right now!) is built of complex, interacting systems. Worldbuilding is choosing which systems to feature, how closely to examine them, and how to weigh their products and outcomes.

Can you believe it's only two more days until I'm a published author 😭 different pre-order links: linktr.ee/adhdalien/

Photo of an open book amongst some fidget toys. The text says "it's hard for people to understand why small comments make me so emotional, because they can't see how many times I've been criticized for the same thing, over and over again." The ADHD Alien character is being handed a brick, in the next panel it is revealed how many bricks she already has piling up to mountains behind her.

Today is your last chance to preorder Melting the Ice Queen from @barnesandnoble.com for 25% off with the code PREORDER25 ! Grab it now: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/melting-th... #romancelandia

Against a background of the Northern Lights, this snippet of text is shown above the North American cover of Melting the Ice Queen:
Very, very quietly, Ailana asked, “Have you really just dared to insult my wife? To me?”
The cover itself shows two women facing each other, holding twin candles, in the midst of a cathedral made of ice. The woman on the left is slim, Black, and wears an icy crown above her cool blue wedding gown, with more shards of ice held ready in the air behind her as she regards her new bride with open suspicion; the woman on the right is white, red-haired, lushly curved, and wearing a gold wedding gown as she grins mischievously at her new wife, with rainbow-colored heat rays beaming out from behind her own figure. The tagline reads: Nothing melts the heart like an old flame.
