For those who don't know, the Post-Self cycle is being released as a podcast as serialized audiobooks. This is about a quarter of the way through book 2, but the rest is already up! If you've been interested in reading them but not able to get into the paperbacks/ebooks/browser version, here's a good option :D Link below, or anywhere you get your podcasts.

A bar - a name - phys-side contacts - well and truly plastered.

PS if you like skunks, I have four books featuring them! Statistically speaking, 50.5 skunks, but in reality, way more. They're also unabashedly queer. Plus more Floe art! Book 1 won a Leo award, and 2 is nominated for both a Leo and Ursa Major.

(And yes, there's tail brushing~)



One of the things I've been poking at as a writing side project is another story set in the Post-Self universe. It only tangentially involves any characters/plot from the original cycle (there's an Odist, though not one seen elsewhere, and the History is mentioned), but I wanted to write some not-furry stuff and still really like the setting, so...I dunno! Anyway, figured I'd toss the first little bit of it up for folks to read.

While there's some introduction to the setting here, a lot of it will make more sense if you've read the other PS books (Qoheleth, Toledot, Nevi'im, and Mitzvot; all are free to read online, or for purchase as ebooks or paperbacks — hardcovers soon!). Also, I post most of my writing over on Patreon first if you're interested in early access, drafts, or behind-the-scenes stuff.
