The Need for Dandelions is an MM Fantasy Romance about two men forced to work together despite their differences in the face of a crisis! Here's a little snippet about dandelions! 🌼 Preorder Links! 🌸⚔️ Uni link: books2read.com/u/meYkPE Itch: bit.ly/3N1RDWk Cover by: @nooskadraws.bsky.social
  “Dandelions,” Galen continued, “never give up. Even when things are hard, or when it seems impossible to keep growing, they do it anyway. We see those bright yellow petals blooming on the streets year after year. They remind me of Candiru, to be honest.” 
    Sasha smiled a bit, turning Galen’s words over and over in his mind like a worry stone. Suddenly, he leaned forward and pushed the vase aside so that he could make eye contact. Galen blinked at him.
    “There you are,” Sasha said, his voice much softer than he intended. 
      Galen met his eyes, and Sasha took a moment to take him in. His eyes, though determined, were so tired. There were bags under them and exhaustion weighed on his shoulders like a rock. His hair was mussed, a few strands escaping from the knot and hanging in front of his face, but he was still here. Still ready to keep going. 
      Sasha smiled and rested his cheek on his hand. “You’re rather like a dandelion yourself. Very resilient and determined.” 
     To Sasha’s utter surprise, color bloomed in Galen’s cheek. He sat up and looked at Sasha with a furrowed brow, trying to work something out. The cover of The Need for Dandelions by Alex Larkspur surrounded by six trope arrows:
- Sort of Enemies to Lovers
- Forced Proximity 
- Queer Normative World 
- Flower Symbolism 
- Oh. *Oh.* 
- Falling in love during a crisis

It's true!! @riadoodles.bsky.social and I are doing a graphic novel. It's got gay SPLASH vibes. Or gay LITTLE MERMAID vibes. Also I was listening to THE UNTAMED soundtrack a lot so there's plenty of pining and soulful gazes. And people, Ria's illustrations are SO GOOD. You are not ready!
Top left, a deal announcement. "Dana Chidiac while at Dial acquired world rights to Kiss the Boy by Adib Khorram (l) in his graphic novel debut, illustrated by debut illustrator Ria Martinez, a romantic tale of soul-binding love between a half-human, half-merfolk boy and the handsome, all-too-human stranger whose life is accidentally interwoven with his. Ellen Cormier will edit; publication is scheduled for spring 2027. Molly O'Neill represented the author, and the illustrator represented themself." L: Adib, a bald man smiling at the camera; R, Ria, non-binary with black hair gazing at the camera. Bottom right, an illustration of Dylan, a merfolk with a blue and yellow tail hanging out of a bathtub filled with bubbles; he is listening to headphones, and more music notes in bubbles float toward the sky.

3 books at once right now but currently digging this one about a lesbian vampire hunter falling for her vampire roommate. It has a real Buffy the Vampire Slayer vibe!

new pinned post! hellooooooo I'm E (she/they) the #author of THE LORD OF THE WOOD (@hanoversquarepress.bsky.social, 2026) and THE KEEPER OF LONELY SPIRITS (MIRA Books, 2025), as well as various short stories check out my links below!
E.M. Anderson's The Lord of the Wood and The Keeper of Lonely Spirits against a starry night background, above a link: ElizMAnderson(dot)Com(slash)Links. The Lord of the Wood's cover is teal with a stag of flowers and foliage growing from a twisted tree with flowers growing around it and black ooze dripping from a branch overhead. the title "The Lord of the Wood" is in large white serif text to the left, with foliage growing through the letters closest to the tree, and the author "E.M. Anderson" is in all-caps yellow text at the bottom. the tagline, in smaller yellow text, reads, "Even a beastly woodland protector needs saving..." The Keeper of Lonely Spirits's cover features a lonely cottage, surrounded by headstones, with smoke drifting from the chimney, atop a tall green hill dotted with trees and yellow flowers. the title "The Keeper of Lonely Spirits" is centered in all-caps sans-serif yellow text, with "E.M." Anderson in smaller white text at the bottom. Tagline in still smaller text at the top reads, "Living forever can be mighty lonesome.""When lonely clockmaker Arthur Throckmorton loses his way in an enchanted forest, he meets the hero of his childhood bedtime stories: the Lord of the Wood. But instead of the mythical figure of his dreams, the Lord of the Wood is a grim man turning into a beast and losing power over a dying forest. If they can’t save the forest before he becomes a beast completely, Arthur will lose the man he's falling for—and never see his family again." Text is in a textbox against a murky image of a forest, with the cover of E.M. Anderson's The Lord of the Wood below the text, all against a dark teal background with gold curlicues in the corners."An old man cursed with immortality hunts ghosts rather than making mortal friends who will die one day. When residents of an Ohio town beset by a vengeful spirit adopt him as their own, he must decide: leave to protect his heart, or stay to save their lives?" To the left of the text is E.M. Anderson's The Keeper of Lonely Spirits, above a QR code linking to the book at Bookshop(dot)Org in either hardcover or ebook. Text is in a translucent textbox against a background of yellow flowers in the sunset.

It's a weird time to be trying to release a book in the US for the first time, but I guess we all need some medieval werewolves and queer yearning amidst The Horrors? Anyway, it's only a week until THE WOLF AND HIS KING comes out in North America, and the NA edition is VERY pretty:
The North American edition of THE WOLF AND HIS KING. It's a hardback book with a brightly coloured cover featuring a golden wolf and crown against a backdrop of woods and grass, in bright colours like a stained glass window. Next to the copy with the dustjacket on is one without it, showing the foil design under the dustjacket, which develops aspects of the main cover design such as the wolves, crown, and plants in a kind of symmetrical, geometric design, in gold foil on a red background. There is knotwork down the spine of the book. The books are standing on several horizontal copies, showing the stencilled edges, which have a red, blue and gold design with a wolf against a star and some fronds of grass or something.
