Celebrate Sapphic Stories: Join the Book Bingo Fun!

Published 6 months ago • 2 min read

From Eden's Desk

Dear Reader,

Can you believe we’re already halfway through January? Time seems to fly, and it’s a reminder of how easy it is to lose track of our goals. This year, I’m working hard to stay focused so I can bring more of my creative plans to life. 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year, and I’m thrilled to share some of the stories I’ve been crafting.

First up is The Prophecy of Venice, the epic conclusion to the trilogy. I can’t wait for you to experience how the story comes full circle—there are moments in this book that have stayed with me, and I hope they’ll resonate with you too. But that’s not all! I’ll also be adding to my pirate series (yes, more high-seas sapphic adventure is coming!) and exploring a darker, romantic Mafia tale. Think Bound meets the 1930s—gritty, passionate, and full of twists.

One thing I’m excited about this month is participating in Sapphic Book Bingo 2025, a fun way to celebrate WLW stories while discovering new books and authors. As someone who loves amplifying sapphic voices and exploring WLW history, this challenge feels like the perfect fit. If you haven’t seen it yet, I’ll include more details below so you can join in too. Let’s fill those Bingo cards together!

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Whether you’re setting big goals or simply taking things one step at a time, I hope this year brings you joy, love, and plenty of sapphic stories to savor.

With love and gratitude,
Eden

From Eden's Desk HeyReader, Just a quick note today — starting next month, I’ll be sending this newsletter once a month, on the 1st. You’ll also hear from me on release days, so nothing important will slip past you. Like a lot of folks in the LGBTQIA+ and autistic communities right now, my mental health has been stretched thin. I’m doing what I can to protect the small spark I have — and that means pulling back from some things to keep creating the things that matter most. Which brings me to...

There’s something about diving into the tangled webs of pirate alliances, betrayals, and sapphic romance that feels like...

From Eden's Desk Dearest Readers, As I write to you from my sailboat, my floating home, I’m reminded how much life at sea shapes my stories—especially the pirate ones. Sailing from Maine to Panama, I’ve experienced places that whisper history and magic. One of my favorite memories is seeing Providencia, Colombia, for the first time—a perfect tropical island rising from turquoise water, its palm-crowned mountain everything I dreamed paradise could be. Moments like that often sail into my...
