Before we get to today’s Friday Feels Fun post, it’s time for Guess the Author
Every week, we’ll provide five clues about a sapphic author. This game helps readers get to know their favorite authors while having fun.
Here is today’s clue:
Clue #5: My latest book has two different settings. I didn’t need to do much research for the main setting as I already knew it so well, but the other location needed many hours of research, as apart from a trip there as a kid, I’ve only ever passed through the airport.
Find Clue #1 here.
Find Clue #2 here.
Find Clue #3 here.
Find Clue #4 here.
Don’t forget to check out Saturday’s post for the answer to this week’s Guess the Author game!

5 Random Things is our way of helping readers to get to know top sapphic book authors all the while having a bit of fun.
Here are five random facts about Annette Mori.
1. I often chew gum at night while I sleep because I don’t like that yucky mouth feeling in the morning. And no, I’ve never had gum in my hair because it fell out during the night.
2. I was engaged to three different men and when my brother in law toasted me at my one and only wedding to my wife he joked about me being a runaway bride that finally got married at age 54.
3. I pulled the fire alarm in junior high because I thought without the glass it wouldn’t activate and wanted to prove that to my younger sister. It did sound the alarm and I was suspended until I could listen to a lecture from the local fire department about how irresponsible that was.
4. I’ve never submitted the first manuscript I ever wrote, instead deciding to write a sequel and submitted that one because I thought the secondary character in the first book was more interesting and she needed a backstory.
5. If it wasn’t for my wife who tempers my love of cats, I would have more than five cats and be the very definition of a crazy cat lady.

Before buying a “free” book, please ensure it’s free in your marketplace. Amazon has a habit of changing the price of permafree titles in stores outside of the US. Please know this it out of the author’s control and we are unable to check prices in all Amazon stores.

QUEER NEWS THAT’LL MAKE YOU SMILE
It can seem sometimes like all the news these days is bad. We won’t deny there’s a lot of troubling things going on, including a rise in hate crimes. But it’s not all terrible out there! We want to do our best to highlight good news, because while it may seem like the world is filled with hate, there are many individuals who are living their best lives with a rainbow in their heart.
This week’s good news involves Williamstown, Massachusetts.
The residents of Williamstown, Massachusetts, voted 175-90 in favor of a bylaw permitting the Progress Pride flag to be flown on town flagpoles. This decision, made at a city board meeting, contrasts with recent actions in other cities where rainbow-colored Pride flags have been banned from government buildings.
One supporter said, “LGBTQ-plus youth still face a world where their basic being is questioned and legislated.… Flying a flag is, really, the least we can do.”
Here’s to hoping there will be many more Pride flags around the world!

That’s all for today.
Wishing all of you a wonderful Friday!
