IT'S FINALLY HERE! THE TENGU AND THE ANGEL IS OUT NOW!

Hello, hello, hello, everyone, I have some very exciting news to share with you all! The Tengu And The Angel, my debut novel, is now finally available to buy! That's right, you can now get your very own copy of my fluffy, angsty, gay friends-to-lovers novel! Oh, but why would you want to, you might be asking? What's the book about! Great questions, my friends, and I'll answer them both for you right now!

The Tengu And The Angel is a friends-to-lovers romance about two roommates falling in love, and learning to let go of their pasts. Eighteen year old Kunio Yoshioka has just fled his abusive mother's home in Northampton, and he's journeying up north in search of a new home, and a fresh start in life. He's armed with nothing but his dreams of being a successful artist, and his vivid imagination. He thinks of his new adult self as a tengu; strong, proud, and capable of things his child self could only dream of. Twenty year old Nathaniel seems to have it all; he's gorgeous, he lives in a beautiful apartment in the centre of Newcastle, and he's the owner and founder of Black Rose, a Victorian gothic online boutique. Kunio thinks of him as angel; he's faultlessly polite and kind, and he goes above and beyond to help him when they first meet, even though he doesn't know him. He's also painfully insecure, and he lives under the thumb of his toxic 'best friend', Theo, who uses his mental illness to control him. When Nathaniel takes Kunio in, the two form a close friendship, which slowly blossoms into love. Can the two of them learn to put their pasts behind, and make their relationship work? Well, you're going to have to read it to find out! Get your copy from Rakuten Kobo, or from the Amazon Kindle Store below!

Hi Apple! How does your writing reflect and/or challenge the values you grew up with? These could be anything from cultural, family, and/or personal values and beliefs.

Thanks for the question, this is such a good one!!

I think my writing reflects my personal value for connection and empathy, if that's not too cheesy. My stories always seem to be moved along by the way characters nudge each other along in loving ways.

I think on the other hand it challenges the subservient, accommodating values that were kind of pushed on me from a young age, so my female characters tend to be the opposite of "good girls should be seen and not heard."

Again, this is a good one, and I think I'm still gonna be thinking about this one for a while!

I consider myself to be a book sommelier. Instead of pairing food with the correct wine, I pair books, especially my own, with the perfect playlists. I sift through the internet until I find songs that perfectly describe my characters and plot.

In the drafting stage of my yet to be titled adult magical girl series. Plz pray for me, drafting is kicking my ass RN
