Melissa Scott and I have been hard at work pulling together this year's version of the Pride StoryBundle.It will go live tonight and run through July 3rd. You can get 3 titles at the $5 level or all 16 titles at the $30 level and designate a portion of your purchase price (no cost to you!) for Rainbow Railroad, an international nonprofit that works with LGBTQ+ folks fleeing persecution. Needless to say, their services are needed more than ever right now. On average, we raise between $700 and $1000 for Rainbow Railroad every year so we hope to hit the high end this year. 
What's in the Bundle?
  • My Wolves of Wolf's Point books from Queen of Swords Press, Silver Moon and Blood Moon. Coming out a midlife, found family, menopause and lycanthropy! I won an Alice B. Reader's Award last year and these books were part of that. Blue Moon (Book 3) is moving along and I hope to have an update soon.
  • Melissa Scott's Master of Samar (Candlemark & Gleam)- gripping standalone gay fantasy with her usual brilliant writing and world-building.
  • J. Warren's gay science fiction novel, Worldburner (Queerspace Books). Like great queer space opera? We got you covered!
  • Office of the Lost by J. Scott Coatsworth and Kim Fielding (indie published). Hilarious gay romantic fantasy about opposites attracting.
  • We're Here: The Best Queer Speculative Fiction 2024 edited by Ryka Aoki and Charles Payseur, Embodied Exegesis: Transfeminine Cyberpunk Futures edited by Ann LeBlanc and Finding Echoes by Foz Meadows, all from Neon Hemlock. Lots of brilliant queer short fiction and a novella that's got a lot of buzz.
  • Running Dry by M.Christian (Queen of Swords Press). Chris' last published novel - stylistic, atmospheric, suspenseful tale of gay vampires on a roadtrip from hell.
  • Was by Geoff Ryman (Small Beer Press). A classic!  Generally considered to be one of the best gay fantasy novels ever written, Ryman brings together three different characters all drawn into version of the Wizard of Oz for their own reasons and needs.
  • Of the Emperor's Kindness by Chaz Brenchley (Wizard's Tower Press). A sapphic fantasy of manners by a master of the craft.
  • Yoke of Stars by R.B. Lemberg (Tachyon Publications). Birdverse tale about how language shapes this queer-normative world.
  • Reclaimed by Seth Haddon (Blind Eye Books). Mystery, high stakes and a romance between a gay man and a trans man.
  • The Rosewood Penny by J.S. Fields (Space Wizard Fantasy). Sapphic epic fantasy!
  • I Want That Twink OBLITERATED! edited by Trip Galey, C.L. McCartney and Robert Berg (Bona Books). Fun, pulpy anthology of tales of villainy thwarted and more.
  • Wolf's Path by Joyce Chng (Atthis Arts). A single author collection featuring queer poetry and prose, art and autobiography.
Hope I have piqued your interest! The annual StoryBundle is generally a big boost to the participating authors and presses, in additional to producing some fine reading material, so we hope you'll be picking it up.
