Whiskey Breaths

my surprise smash hit of the year was Whiskey Breaths, in the month since publishing it reached 62 downloads. that's quite a few considering Ruby Bird only reached 400 the entire year during its free runs after having been published in March.

So, it's basically just a compendium of cowboy smut. Gay cowboy smut.

it's still free, and it's one of my "always free" eBooks, but you can get a physical too if you're so inclined to do so. Link is of course in bio if you're interested.

... Read moreThe genre of cowboy romance, particularly with gay themes, has grown in popularity, resonating with many readers who seek representation and relatable stories. 'Whiskey Breaths' exemplifies this trend, creating a blurring of traditional cowboy tales with modern relationships and sexual exploration. As more readers embrace diverse narratives, the success of such eBooks highlights the demand for inclusive literature. The accessibility of self-published works online allows authors to reach niche audiences effectively. Readers can enjoy these books without financial commitment, and 'Whiskey Breaths' continues to provide free access while enticing with physical copies. Additionally, platforms such as Lemon8 offer community engagement, where fans of LGBTQ+ literature can share their experiences and recommendations. The evolving landscape of digital literature illustrates how voices from various backgrounds contribute to a richer literary tapestry, making it vital for aspiring writers to tap into these trends and create stories that reflect the diverse experiences of love and desire.
