So much has changed

Rowan Liddell

Where do I even begin?

When I opened this website specifically, I was focusing on both writing and animal care. Then I was just focusing on writing here, and posting about animal care took a back seat. Then I decided that my voice wasn’t necessary for the pet world and culture across social media, and I just continued to focus on writing. I have rehomed my menagerie, leaving me only with my service dog Luca, and two cats Buddy and Melog. I’ve mourned both the losses and placements of animals I could no longer care for, and I’ve rejoiced in the time given back to me to continue my writing career.

And yet, I’ve continued to struggle. I’m learning a lot about myself that I hadn’t realized I needed to learn until now. I moved to Florida in 2019. In February 2025, I moved to Colorado. The political climate here is better, the weather is better suited to me, and overall the beauty of Denver is agreeing with me in every sense. I’m learning how to live with my now lawfully-wedded wife and our three pets, and it’s been so wildly different from anything I could have imagined.

I love it.

I’ve found a queer writing space that I enjoy. There are natural wonders all around me I haven’t seen many times over, and the weather changes just brings me new, fresh sights. I’m writing again, and editing. I’m diving back into my creative wellspring and I’m officially employed at a company where I’ll be embroidering luxury products. I never thought this would be my life, my joy, my experience, with friends and family from almost every state and nation encouraging me to keep going and keep living.

I’m blessed. If only the younger me I used to resent and belittle could see me now, and hear how much I love her for the strength it took for her get this far. I have never been keen on loving myself. But, slowly, I’m beginning to.

I’m not just making my loved ones proud. I’m making ME proud.

All that to say, check me on the flip! This year we WILL get the conclusion to The White Dragon Saga and the start of the Demonic Requiems, my upcoming dark romance series in an urban fantasy setting!

Join Nex in this first installment of their rather unconventional coming out series!

Caution is the only thing that the seemingly human Nex knows. Caution led them to their current travel party, and eventually caution led them to Sidero Square. After they take revenge on the person who made them feel so tied to the concept of safety in the first place, maybe they can relax. Maybe there won’t be any threat of anyone learning their secret. What caution didn’t account for, however, was the fact that Nex would be teaming up with Iacchus, a fun-loving satyr looking to reclaim his family’s wealth and titles from his twin Adrastos so he can spread proper merriment. While Nex believes the enemy of their enemy is a friend, everything inside of them tells them that Iacchus is an accident waiting to happen. But whose accident, exactly? Wrath and the Patient Man is an enemies to lovers, LGBT+ erotic short story about trust, self-worth, and the risk involved with both. Follow Nex as they learn to connect with parts of themself no one else has managed to access, and learn to love who and what they are instead of hiding from it behind a veil of discipline.

Raised in a conservative pack of were-dogs, Corey knew what to expect out of their life from the moment Emery declared they would be his mate. When their first heat arrives suddenly after hibernation, however, Emery is not the one to respond to their scent. Instead, it is the allegedly dangerous alpha werewolf Sorrell vying for their affections. Though Corey knows they have a duty to fulfill, there’s something in Sorrell’s stormy gaze that invites the omega to break tradition. A Stormy Earth is an erotic short story featuring alpha/omega dynamics, werewolf subculture, and LGBT+ characters. Join Corey for a sinful first season.
