D.C. Emerson
D.C. is an avid board gamer and rock climber who lives on the East Coast of the United States but loves to travel to places near and far as often as they can. D.C. has always identified as queer, but during the pandemic they came out as nonbinary (they/them pronouns) to family and friends. This book was part of that process, and they have loved exploring different genderqueer identities like their own through their writing, reading, research, and countless hours watching reels and videos on social media. Their biggest hope in writing queer fiction is to provide at least one other person out there with characters and story lines that they can recognize themselves, or their friends and loved ones in.
Conflict Mediation (a short story)
D.C. Emerson
James was doing just fine at work, minding his own business and avoiding Leon, his long-time nemesis, Leon. Unfortunately, upper management has other plans for them, and that’s how James finds himself spending a miserable evening at conflict mediation with Leon.
Leon has worked hard to get where he is today, and he doesn’t need his annoying coworker James ruining that for him. He’s ready to grit his teeth through conflict mediation if that means he gets to keep his job and go about his life.
Unfortunately, there must have been a mix-up in the office because James and Leon find themselves in a couples counseling session instead. Will they be able to get through the session with their jobs, and their grudges for each other, intact?
An Epic Construct (Not So Normative #1)
D.C. Emerson
This is an adult LGBTQ+ Romance novel.
Is a LGBTQ+ friendly dating app the answer to all of Penelope's dating woes? Her ex-girlfriend turned asexual best friend and roommate sure thinks so. Within a few minutes of swiping, Penelope matches with the mysterious, yet charming Riley, who identifies as queer, but is slow to open up about his sexuality... and everything else.
As Penelope explores dating again, she gets the opportunity to MC a drag brunch, in full drag king regalia. For a long time, Penelope has suspected she might be nonbinary, but that feels like something she'll sort out on her own eventually... right?
The drag brunch is a smashing success, and she meets a beautiful woman in the audience named Taylor. Penelope falls for her hard, and Taylor supports Penelope as she finally begins to explore her gender identity.
Penelope begins to notice similarities between Riley and Taylor, in the way they think, the way they talk, and most importantly in the way they make her feel. What if the two people she's falling for are more than just amazing, what if they're her soul mate?
Follow Penelope's journey as she navigates the ups and downs of dating, self-discovery, and the search for love and acceptance in a hilariously complicated and ultimately satisfying, queer love story.
