“I create things out of boredom with reality.” That’s what Patricia Highsmith wrote in Plotting and Writing Suspense Fiction. Made me realise, me too.
Leave a CommentLast week, I saw something I never thought I’d ever see on TV. A character named Alex Danvers proposing to a character named Maggie Sawyer. It was mind-blowing because Alex Danvers is a woman. A heavily-mascaraed, lycra-wearing babe, as is Maggie. Surprising because lesbians on TV used to be perpetual villains doomed to be dead, punished or “cured” and subtext was even a thing. Fascinating because where I sit right now, same-sex marriage isn’t even legal and LGBTQ content is non-existent on local television channels. That I could actually watch a woman proposing to a woman on a TV show while being here is amazing and surreal. Like the impossible occurred. So thank you all who made it possible. You have changed my world completely, whether or not you know it.

Obviously I freaked and wallowed in shame for days but good news is, amendments have been made along with a few other editorial and aesthetic improvements. So, if you bought Snow White and Her Queen before 1 June 2017, please do download the updated version for future reading or keeps. I apologise for the imperfection with all my heart and pray you enjoyed the story anyway. The production process has since been refined so Book 2’s gonna be better from the get-go for sure. By the time Book 3 rolls out, I’m certain I’m gonna be so pro. Thanks for reading.
