The cover for Songs of Broken Bells by Lilly Lockwood. It features the four main characters arranged in a diamond formation, a stained glass design at the top with a sun on one side and shadows on the other, and a string of cracked bells on the sides. 
Liadan is at the bottom, holding up a candle. She has orange skin, silver hair, black rams horns, and black markings on her arms. She's wearing a green cloak and a yellow dress. Vasil is to her left. He is also holding a candle. Vasil has brown skin with a bark-like texture with patches of paler skin and moss. His hair is brown and curly. He is wearing a green caftan with yellow filigree. Minno is on the right, also holding a candle. They have pale skin, blonde hair with braided sideburns, and round framed glasses. They are wearing a white shirt with part of their kilt (in a brown and blue tartan) draped over one shoulder. Aila is behind the other three characters with her wings wrapped around them.

Oh by the way, don’t forget you can ask your library to order nearly any book you want to read but don’t want to buy. And as authors we love libraries buying our books & readers being able to access them through libraries.

Another day, another inexperienced but hopeful writer, announcing that they have “been offered a book deal” for £20,000. Turns out that the author is being expected to PAY THIS to the publisher, not the other way round. Folks, no publisher does this.

She doesn’t write it now, but Autumn Breeze’s sapphic fiction was some of the first I read way back on wattpad. Latoya_Love was another user who’s work really helped me when I was younger, even thought her stuff kept getting purged.

The account that launched a personal attack against me, called me an abuser and predator, and attempted to ruin my career has evidently decided to abandon their goal. Of course, they also turned that into my fault but whatever. I have the same thing to say now that I did when this started:

My debut, an adult urban/supernatural fantasy, releases in 10 weeks! 😱 If you are interested in an ARC to review, feel free to DM me or drop a comment below! #BookSky #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #IndieAuthor
Image of a book cover with a mottled/cloudy gray background that depicts the silhouette of a leafless tree with snow on its branches. The tree is situated on a small mound of snow, under which are black cobblestones with blood seeping through some of the cracks. The title in red reads "The Blood Divide" and the author's name in white is "Zan Lowell". Below the cover is the date 7.25.25
Around the book are the following tropes and phrases with arrows pointing from the text to the cover (clockwise order):
"chosen family"
"flawed protagonists"
"complex villain"
“Disaster bi”
“A very tired gay vampire dad”
"hidden world"
“Antifascist overtones”
“aroace MC”

The background behind the cover and text is a sunset over a mountain range

If you have a problem with someone you hired for a service, reach out to them and have a discussion with them first. But making a whole account to raise “awareness” about their behavior and then providing no proof outside of “trust me, bro” is juvenile. #writingcommunity #indiewriters #writers

I didn't read this this month but... I did get this merch as a thank you for kick-starting the movie project! #blackbooksky #queerbooksky 🌈 if you like sapphic romance & haven't read Outdrawn by Deanna Grey, I reccomend Outdrawn by Deanna Grey.
Two postcards on a laptop and two stickers. The pink circle sticker has a drawing of a black woman that says "I am in fact a lesbian" and the blue one had a black woman and says "and to clear something up, I'm bisexual". The postcards are the two women standing with their arms on a wall, sharing a look. The other one below it is the two women at a desk one drawing and looking at the other, the other is collapsed on an illustration page exhausted.
