Please buy my books 🙏 NQO is sad and rainy and full of yearning and cute moments. It's a slow-burn. They're a bit codependent. It's cute okay??? linktr.ee/LouWrites?ut...

Happy Easter to me who wrote the most miserable and gut-wrenching fic for the NQO universe

Easter just isn’t a good time to come out to my family. Mum seems to lose her patience more than ever on this holiday, and her parents are here, and Kirst’s away so I don’t have back-up, and I already know my aunt is homophobic, so it’s best for everyone that we’re just friends.
Just friends.

Anyway I'm retreating back into Not Quite Out because William "I'm a mess" Anson is the only person who makes sense to me and Daniel "accidental flirt" Taylor will always have my heart

He is no less beautiful for his injuries. I would almost say that they add a heroism to him, but I’ve grown well past idolising pain.

honestly fuck whatever 2021 was because William "I'm A Mess" Anson has my whole heart

One

Everything at Keele is uphill. I bow my head against the early afternoon rain as I march up the main road through campus, stomach empty and brain buzzing. I just left a meeting about my final ever medicine student placement and I feel fizzy, like a shaken bottle of pop.

CANDY NECKLACES I was really onto something with Lilley as a narrator, dang. This was a Kickstarter exclusive mini-book but I'm considering (deeply) listing some copies to raise money for an abortion charity I love. Watch this space!

Dan takes a tight handful of the back of my coat and holds me in place, kissing me like he doesn't care we're in the centre of campus.

This was a hoot! Some of these placements are a bit iffy but Harry, Dante, Griff, Teddy, and Bowie are FIRMLY in these alignments. (Griff can't help it; he's a demon.) Dante jumps between neutral and chaotic evil and I think this placement for Harry is really interesting. (Harry is the MC) 🧛❣️🧛❣️🧛

D&D alignment chart with character names in each location:
Anna lawful good
Minnie neutral good
Bowie chaotic good
Zariah and Fen lawful neutral
Ophelia and Anastacia true neutral
Teddy chaotic neutral
Harry lawful evil
Dante neutral evil
Griff chaotic evil

Greyscale photos of a bed and two hands and text: the thought of being held by him all night is enough to make me lose my breath.

I can't believe Marshmallows is a real book again 🥹 This part of Will and Dan's story is so important to me. We deal with addiction, eating disorders, academic pressure. We have some of the cutest moments I've ever written. Grab a copy here: relinks.me/B0FGYG1LK1

Snow is falling fairly heavily from the dark, cloudy sky. The flakes glow bright where the street lamps catch them, but I'm right - it's barely sticking. At the moment. Dan looks heartbroken.
