I didn't check my email yesterday, so I was beyond happy to find out this morning that my sapphic romance "Shifting Nature" has been shortlisted for a "Goldie" GLCS Literary Award! It's a finalist in the paranormal fiction category. Congratulations to all other finalists!
Shifting Nature by Jae is a Goldie Finalist in the Paranormal Fiction category. Depicted is the book with the cover showing a woman and a fox sitting next to each other and the woman petting the fox, in front of a forest at sunset.

How to write: Stop not writing. Keep your butt in the chair. Write really bad small sections of the whole—passages, moments, episodes, memories—til you have an incredibly shitty 1st draft. Then take out the boring parts, the lies and pretensions. Then write a better 2nd draft.

In his second term, Trump has hit Canada with aggressive tariffs and repeatedly said it should become the “51st state.” In an escalation of this trade war, he’s threatening to stop the opening of a new U.S.-Canada bridge until his demands are met.
