Achilles in Heels has been Published!

I must admit that I haven’t written much in this blog since starting it because I am always nervous about stepping on anyone’s toes. I’m a nonbinary individual who has been thinking A LOT about gender since I was conscious enough to have thoughts but that doesn’t mean I am infallible.

Still, though this blog has the least amount of posts of any of my blogs it has more followers which seems to speak to a need for this sort of thing. So in the spirit of positive representation I have written my first fiction novel which delves deeply into all things gender and even makes light of polyamory. I am proud to share it with you now.

Synopsis: In this modern retelling of an old myth teenage Achilles is sent to live with a harem of princesses disguised as one of them in an attempt to avoid the draft and his fated death in battle. Chaos and confusion ensues as he blunders into adventure after adventure, meeting other lovable legends and dragging his besties Patroclus and princess Deidamia along, all while keeping the secret of his gender close to his heart. A humorous novel that’s as playful as it is poignant.

If this interests you it’s available in paperback and ebook on Amazon. As an independently published author getting the word out is difficult so if you like what I’m doing share! Share! Share! On all your social media accounts and to all your friends!

Thank you all so much for being part of this journey with me.
