Valdemar was probably my first exposure to queer characters in fantasy. The Last Herald Mage of Valdemar was the series. Several good series and an excellent fantasy world.

Such an outpouring of emotion from you all. Wow! Thank you everyone that was worried. There's no way I can write a response to each of you but thank you all for caring. And especially a huge huge thank you to the people that looked after me when things went peculiar!
So, here is what happened. On Wednesday night we checked into the Marriot for Gencon and were given a newly renovated room. What did not occur to me was that this was a newly renovated room and everything was... facebook.com/71496424801/po…

@goodreads @mercedeslackey @TheAuthorGuy Highly recommend 👇🏻
Just finished this great book by @jdbarker. I can’t believe I finished over 750 pages in 3 days but that’s a testament to how good it is!
@LarryDixonTGK @mercedeslackey - @florian_hencher (Instagram) asked for suggestions of characters he could portray and I thought of Vanyel. At any rate, if you aren't aware of Florian's work, take a look! instagram.com/p/CZ14VqZtuze/…

@Lollardfish The Song of The Lioness Series by @TamoraPierce Hell, most of her books. But that world has been a fave of mine for as long as I can remember. Also, age dependant, @mercedeslackey has a huge amount of books with strong female leads.

Before all else: trans women are women, and trans men are men. This is something I fiercely believe, and will always support. I have made awkward statements that have caused pain or distress. My desire is, and has always been, to support the trans community and be the
@Lollardfish @TamoraPierce @mercedeslackey Honestly, those two got me through my youth. I can't even imagine what my life would be like, without them having been a guiding light.

@mercedeslackey @LarryDixonTGK Hi there. My wife is a huge fan and I'm trying to track down some of the music CDs y'all used to offer thru Firebird. She has 4, but recently found out there are more. Do you know where I might be able to find them? Thanks!
@monkeyminion @mercedeslackey @LarryDixonTGK Oh daaaaamn two of them are on eBay and they’re EXPENSIVE. I had them all at one point?
@DanisBookWorld All of the suggestions so far have been bang on. I'd like to recommend The Deed of Paksenarrion by @emoontx, the Valdemar series by @mercedeslackey and @LarryDixonTGK, the Dragonlance Chronicles by @WeisMargaret and @trhickman and The Inheritance Cycle (Eragon) by @paolini.
@JessInChaos @mercedeslackey @LarryDixonTGK Yeah my wife has four and realized last night that there are more and since her b-day is coming up, was going to ask me to get the others. Then... she googled them. LOL
@kevincgl @doctorow Nice! @mercedeslackey has an omnibus of Senorita Rio stories. Cool stuff hardly anyone seems to know about. A firecracker of a character.
