Author Takeover: Fandom in Fiction
Our April Author Takeover comes from debut author Michelle Osgood, whose novel The Better to Kiss You With will be published by Interlude Press later this month. Michelle developed her writing in fandom communities and joins a family of authors who have made their way into Interlude’s ranks through the realm of popular fanfiction. Not only are these titles fantastic examples of writing with an understanding of fan culture and interests, but they fill a gap in mainstream publishing with an exceptional inclusive ethos embracing literature with LGBTQ* and diverse characters.

Thanks for having me, @mugglenet! I’d say I could cross “being on MuggleNet” off of my bucket list now - but being on MuggleNet in the first place seemed too ridiculous a dream to even write on my bucket list!

COMING THIS FALL: Not Your Sidekick by C.B....
COMING THIS FALL:
Not Your Sidekick by C.B. Lee
Welcome to Andover… where superpowers are common, but internships are complicated. Just ask high school nobody, Jessica Tran. Despite her heroic lineage, Jess is resigned to a life without superpowers and is merely looking to beef-up her college applications when she stumbles upon the perfect (paid!) internship—only it turns out to be for the town’s most heinous supervillain. On the upside, she gets to work with her longtime secret crush, Abby, who Jess thinks may have a secret of her own. Then there’s the budding attraction to her fellow intern, the mysterious “M,” who never seems to be in the same place as Abby. But what starts as a fun way to spite her superhero parents takes a sudden and dangerous turn when she uncovers a plot larger than heroes and villains altogether.
From the author of Seven Tears at High Tide, C.B. Lee, the super hero saga takes flight in September, from Duet Books.
Get to know C.B. Lee at CBLee.com.

Now Available: “Black Dust” by Lynn Charles
“No one calls me Toby now.” Tobias shook his head and hated the worry he saw in Emmett’s eyes. “I’m not that boy anymore… ”
“I never expected you to be.” Emmett’s gaze was like fire through Tobias’s skin. “I’m not that boy anymore either.”
Tobias wanted to look away, but was frozen. In spite of the whirr in his ears and the urge to run vibrating in his legs, he was held in Emmett’s gaze.
“Would you prefer I call you ‘Tobias’?”
“No.” It was out before Tobias even considered it. And as he heard it, he meant it. No. This man. This man who knew everything, he had every right to the darkest corners of Tobias’s past. “No. It wouldn’t feel right. Not from you.”
Emmett nodded and grabbed his cane. Tobias winced and looked away from it, his anxiety unreasonable to him in light of Emmett’s calm. But when he dared to look back at Emmett, he saw the mischievous twinkle that he knew well, the one that could quiet the whirr and convince him to stay.
“So… ” Emmett lingered on the vowel and pushed his glasses back on his nose. “If you’re not that Toby anymore, and I’m not that Emmett anymore… who was it that couldn’t resist kissing me?”
Toby closed his eyes and chuckled with pleasure. “Just… me.”

Summary

As Emmett and Tobias explore their renewed relationship, the two men face old hurts and the new challenges of a long-distance romance.

About the Author
Lynn Charles’ love of writing dates back to her childhood, but continued into adulthood filling books upon books of journals long before journaling was cool. While she considers herself a rusty musician now, music has always been a driving force, earning her degree in music education and many years performing and directing choral music. She lives in central Ohio with her husband, two adult children and a small menagerie of animals. When she’s not writing, she can be found strolling local farmer’s markets in search of ingredients for new recipes, and falling into the google rabbit hole researching for her next writing project.
Her novel Chef’s Table was published in 2014 by Interlude Press.

Something tells me that Grady would appreciate Ms. Hepburn’s class ^^
That is so awesome! Grady is drawn to people who have a certain stylish presence, that’s for sure.
