Ampelios

@willaful @romancebooks @bookstodon I always see/hear my books in every medium except the written word first.

In narration I try to stay out of their way and in dialog, punctuation is like musical notation.

It’s really just transcribing a living world.

Need to post 7 but it opens with Oliver at his family home in Onitsha, the contrast between that and his rural English boarding school.

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I think a hashtag blacklisted me for posting once a day during the 3 days while my books were free. So now I don’t post about them at all.

He switched places with Elijah Wood in 2011 and no-one has noticed yet.

@lenoreo @herhandsmyhands @notTheAudience @Anthro_CLH @Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks @OliviaWrites Mine has a colder/stiffer work persona but everybody, I mean EVERYBODY sees right through it.

As his partner puts it, “He has a way of making you want to take care of him, doesn’t he?”

He’s blisteringly competent one minute, then he can barely feed himself. There’s a whole covert team at the office to keep him humming along efficiently.

@Diva007 @lenoreo @romancelandia @romancebooks He is a former old-order Mennonite paired up with a NYC teenage runaway turned spy/sex worker, let’s say they have slightly different life experiences.

They work, somehow. One is extremely complicated and the other rarely asks questions. It catches him off-guard in a good way how his BF takes charge when they’re alone.

@Diva007 @lenoreo @romancelandia @romancebooks My POV char is deliriously in love with a total cinnamon roll who, at times, still dominates in the bedroom.

Victor must be protected at all costs. Also he has a strong protective/possessive streak that comes out only occasionally.

@Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks Links in profile, 3 books are out already! 4 on the way, 5 less concrete but I hop there sometimes for fun.

It’s breezy chatty escapism that has been on a low burner for a long, long time.

@Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks Mine “marry” because one is a secret agent who has a brain fart on a mission and blurts out the first name that pops into his head, his boyfriend’s.

Through various events they have to appear together and the BF is no good at secret identities.

It takes his handler to point out the problem. “Andrews and Andrews? I’m not saying it’s never happened but…”

“Yeah I guess it’s kind of worse if we’re cousins, right?”

@Diva007 @lenoreo @romancelandia @romancebooks I hope you enjoy them! A lot of the explanations are very slow in coming but at its core, it’s a group of wildly different people who all care deeply about each other.

@lenoreo @Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks My M/M/M series doesn’t hone in on specific labels much in the text, but one of the mains is very much demi (partly by upbringing but mainly by temperament) and another is mainly ace but finds sex a useful form of rebellion.

Then there’s the one who’s gay but engaged to a woman and two-timing with a straight guy.

Their collective sexuality is MESS.
