Claudie - Buy Nerezia While I Vacation ;) @clh2oars.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

The Chronicles of Nerezia (Disc One: Fragments) is complete! Hop onto a magical Wagon to traverse the land in this epic episodic-style series of novellas with a mushy friendship, games, and human connections heart First: buy.bookfunnel.com/1fbixxop4u Series: claudiearseneault.com/nerezia/

The chronicles of Nerezia. A spread of nine novella covers, with information on the right. It has pride flags for aro, ace, and non-binary, as well as "a found family queer road trip across a series of novellas" and displays a wide array of retailers (Amazon is notably absent). A small text says “perfect bite sized stories!”

I don't watch many booktubers but Trinity is one I always watch. The way she talks about the books she reads helps me to decide if a book is for me or not. Even the books she didn't like, I might. She knows very well how to convey who a book is for. And she picks up non-mainstream books.

My latest #BookReview is for a dystopian sci-fi novel with an inter-species romance as its emotional core, lots of interesting & fun side characters, & an evocatively-described space station setting as a diplomatic mission goes spectacularly awry. Some dark themes but ultimately a hopeful tale. #sff

Dang, Patreon forced me to edit chapter 3 of 'Cove of the Fisherman's Wife'. Rather than change the story from what it was, I just cut the part they don't like, as omitting it doesn't kill the story. HowEVer, if you are interested in the full chapter 3, might I suggest you pick up the book?

Cover to Cove of the Fisherman's wife. Colored in monochrome blue, a Japanese woman looks upon the encroaching octopus arms. Her yukata is partially removed, as a lone tear runs down her cheek.
