"Are you worried that Amazon will ban spicy romance and queer stories?" We've put off answering this question - and edited out a LOT because it was too long and less focused than it could have been. But yeah, we ARE worried. We've had run-ins with Amazon before, and this is why we will NEVER rely on 3rd parties as much as we can be free of them. If you want to get Edward's version of The Night Pri...

With the ...uh ... coming crazy, we thought it was important to talk about why our community actually matters, even though we're not anyone prominent in the gay entertainment or podcast space. We cringe if we talk about this stuff, all we want to do is publish stories. But we decided it's cowardly NOT to acknowledge the place that our community has in people's lives, and why we want to continue do...
