Dearest Quill,

Please try a web weave for yorichii and kokushibo? Their relationship is really tragic and could've been saved if kokushibo wasn't a jealous piece of shi istg💀💀

sorry for the rant :p

Love,

Rizzmaster

Maiden, Mother, Crone: Fantastical Trans Femmes edited by Gwen Benaway

goodreads

Drawing on high fantasy and other genres of fantasy writing, Maiden, Mother, Crone is the first anthology by trans femme authors to explore the realms of magic, supernatural beings, and alternate universes. Enter a universe of wonder where trans femmes are powerful heroines, sorceresses, and warriors fighting against dark forces in vivid magical worlds.

With celebrated trans femme writers like Kai Cheng Thom, Casey Plett, and Gwen Benaway, and featuring art by Alex Morris, this anthology will transform the landscape of fantasy fiction and offer radical portals into excitement, danger, and transformation.

Mod Opinion: I hadn‘t heard of this one before, but it sounds very interesting and it has some authors in here whose work I enjoy, so I‘m excited to check it out.
