Hello Fediverse!

I've been working on a personal website and blog over the past few months. I'd been wanting to get back into writing for while, as well as spend more time doing web design, so it seemed like a natural combination of the two.

I've just published the second article today, my Reading List for last year. You might say that two and a half months into the year is a bit late for this, and I'd be the first to agree, but better late than never goes the saying.

Last month I also published the first new(ish) entry, an article giving a fairly broad overview of the different forms of encryption, and why and when they should be used.

Enjoy!

Fediverse Queer Reading List

Recently I asked for recommendations for books that featured Queer Romances and were either Young Adult, Science Fiction, or Fantasy. The Fediverse responded with an avalanche of titles, which I have compiled into a neat little list and divided into the following sections:

Fediverse Authors
Authors of Color
Genderqueer Authors
Standalone Stories
Books in a Series
(Library Resources)
