“Felix Navidad” is now Available Everywhere!
Okay, today’s the for-real day. If you pre-ordered “Felix Navidad” from the Bold Strokes Books webstore—thank you!—then you already had Felix in your hot little hands since the first of the month because of the Bold Strokes Books webstore early release thing, but if you pre-ordered elsewhere—thank you!—Felix should be in your in-box right this very second! This is not a drill! We have novella! (Insert Kermit-flailing.) If you haven’t pre-ordered elsewhere, you should be able to pick it up anywhere queer e-novellas are sold as of today!
Felix doesn’t do impulsive anymore. But attending a friend’s wedding reminds Felix he’s the only one of his friends attending solo, and recent losses have him thinking he’s swung too far in the not-impulsive direction.

So, impulse decision number one? Cutting in on a dance with handsome farmer Kevin, the ex of one of the grooms, for a spin at the reception. Impulse decision number two? Planning his first holiday vacation off work. Christmas in Hawai’i will be a gift to himself.
When dancing doesn’t work out, Felix keeps high hopes for his vacation right up until the first flight cancellation. After bumping into a stranded Kevin, who lost his flight home, Felix gives impulse a third try: Why not drive to Toronto together? But after ice rain strands them halfway, it looks like Felix isn’t going to get to give himself his gift after all. Instead, this Christmas is a small cabin—and Kevin.
I can’t believe the year is almost over, that Felix is out in the world, and that all the fellas from the Bittersweets Club now have someone in their life. No pun intended, but it’s bittersweet to be at the end of that little group of friends, but as I hinted at the start of the month, I do have something percolating in my noggin. Next year is about my Hi/Lo YA novel, Stuck With You, and getting Triad Magic finished, but after that?
Well. Like I’ve said before, I’ve always really liked Hallowe’en…
