Selina has been such a support on this project, I couldn't have done it without her! Preorder H.O.T. to read her surveillance & censorship short story and follower her everywhere!

🌈💜 🌈🚀💫 💙📚 #booksky 📢📚
Selina Shaw (she/her) is an English love witch and writer of queer femme delight, hunger and power in romance and horror. She believes storytelling is a crucial site of resistance, and uses nature, eroticism, and the unresolved to explore rewilding the self. As well as getting feral with her own books, Selina has been featured in multiple anthologies and lit mags, including Anarkiss, Tulip Wolf Journal, Discord Comics and iReadIndies. When she isn’t writing, she’s splitting her time exactly equally between horror movies and Barbie TV shows, or getting lost in the woods. linktr.ee/selina_shaw.com @shawberrytart obscenity “Wait, hold on, f***...” Kal halted. “What is it?” “F***, f***, f***!” The bleeps ran together abrasively. “It’s blurred you,” she snarled. Rosemary tapped a few keys in confusion. “Like the line’s fuzzy?” “No, like your tits have been censored.” “WHAT?” she squeaked. She threw the hoodie back around her. “And now?” “Yep, normal again.” “For f***’s sake!” Bleeeeep. “Oh, shut up!” H.O.T. ANTHOLOGY Coming Sept 1st, 2026 On a dark purple background, three plastic dolls are stacked, undressed, in different shades of pink, purple and orange. At the top of the cover, the letters H.O.T. read in pink neon lighting. Along the body of the first doll are the words "horny", "oppressed", and "tameless" in purple manuscript font, looking like a tattoo. Along the leg of the bottom one, in the same style, is written "Edited by Merlina Garance." In the bottom left corner, in pink neon, blocky font, is written "STORIES OF SEX AGAINST OPPRESSION".
