Gaylaxicon 2025 – Final Announcement
I’m so damn excited to be a Guest of Honor at Gaylaxicon (Oct 3–5, 2025)! This con is about celebrating queer voices in speculative fiction, and I couldn’t be more honored to be part of it. Even better, I get the chance to collaborate with friends and colleagues in ways that will directly shape future volumes of The Tarot Sequence.
One highlight: I’ll be joined by Latin scholar Kristina Milnor and author E.M. Hamill for a live worldbuilding session on Saturday. We’ll be pulling from Roman culture and history to help build the framework for Lady Moon’s court in The Dragon’s Rise (Book 6). It’s a chance for fans to see research and creativity collide in real time—and even influence the final product.
