J. Scott Coatsworth with his “The Hencha Queen..” Photo by Coatsworth & Guzman

Every week we post six lines from a work of ours, a work-in-progress or published or a recommendation of someone else’s work with at least one LGBT character. Posted at Rainbow Snippets here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/963484217054974

My friend J. Scott Coatsworth, a prolific novelist and the guy behind Queer Sci-Fi has a new novel out! “The Hencha Queen” is the third book in Scott’s “Tharassas Cycle,” and that’s not even his only novel series! The book is coming out this week, here’s a link https://www.jscottcoatsworth.com/novels/ to Scott’s website.

These snippets are a preview…

“You’re doing great!” Cor’Lea’s voice was artificially bright, and she was as tall as he was, maybe a little taller, peering over his shoulder at the sealed tunnel entrance.

Silya had tasked her with bringing him down here to check out these hidden caverns under the Temple, in preparation for the coming war. Important, sure, but also clearly an excuse to get him out from underfoot while she prepared for her official Raising.

He grunted “Thanks. These boards are hard as iron.” And hard as Silya’s will.

One day things would be different between them, once this crisis was over. I just have to be patient.

I am not putting myself out on a limb by saying that anything J. Scott Coatsworth writes is well worth your time.

See you next week with more Rainbow Snippets! —–jeff
