Welcome to my little corner of the internet!

I’m Charley and I write LGBTQIA+ fiction with happy endings because I believe every reader should be able to find themselves inside the pages of a book. That means every sexual orientation, every gender identity, every socio-economic class and body type, every level of ability (mental and physical) and every race.

Here, you can expect to find posts about queer representation in media, book recommendations, and news and ponderings about topics of interest to the LGBTQIA+ community. I also like to host authors and their books, news and ponderings about the online and meatspace book communities (my own and those of others), and snippets from my fiction as part of the #RainbowSnippets Facebook group.

I typically post weekly but as part of my writing goals for the next year I might post up to twice a week. If you don’t want to miss a thing, sign up for updates.

You can find me on Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook or Goodreads.

I’d love to hear from you!

You don’t need permission to reblog or republish an excerpt from any of my posts, as long as it’s under 300 words and includes a link back to the original post.

In addition to writing, I enjoy photography. Some of the photos on this blog were taken by me and may not  be used without permission (which I’ll probably give, so ask me!). Thanks for respecting my IP.

If you see any of your pictures on my site without proper credit, please email me. I’ll give you proper credit or remove them, whichever you’d prefer.

Charley Descoteaux is the author of the Buchanan House Love Stories. Book One was a USA Today Must-Read Romance.

Charley misspent a large chunk of their youth on the back of a Harley, meeting people and having adventures that sometimes pop up in their fiction. She grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area during a drought and found her true home in the soggy Pacific Northwest. Charley has survived earthquakes, tornadoes, and floods, but couldn’t make it through one day without stories.
