Oh, I know. It deeply disappoints me, because I selfishly want books like yours to succeed - I would like there to be more like them. (I enjoy queer female romance a whole hell of a lot more than the heterosexual kind, because even when it can be problematic, it's not the same kind of problematic, if that makes sense?)

I try my best to keep up with what's coming out SFF-wise of lesbian presses, or queer female SFF-wise independently, and I have to say it's hard as hell: none of it gets any buzz anywhere - and alas a significant percentage of it, not yours, is not top-quality work either.

...Speaking of, I should probably see if I can't bully Stefan and Jenny into reading Daughter of Mystery.
