Now Available in Audio: Tiffany and Tiger's Eye by Foxglove Lee

I'm delighted to announce that my novel Tiffany and Tiger's Eye is now available as an audiobook!

This audio version was created using Google's digital auto-narration technology rather than a human narrator, and I love how it turned out. It's seven hours long and I enjoyed every minute of it.

If you love consuming content in audio format, be sure to grab a copy of Tiffany and Tiger's Eye from Google Play!

How many secrets can one family keep?

If there’s one thing Rebecca knows, it’s how to keep her problems under wraps. It’s easy to keep your mouth shut when you’ve got no friends, but with a rock-and-roll dad who drinks too much and a mom who works day and night, Rebecca needs a sympathetic ear. That’s why she tells her troubles to Yvette, an antique doll that once belonged to her grandmother.

In the summer of 1986, after her father’s strange disappearance, Rebecca and her little brother are sent to stay at the cottage, where she meets Tiffany: a water-skiing blonde who dresses like Madonna, makes her own jewellery, and claims to see auras.

But strange things happen when Rebecca spends time with Tiffany. Her aunt and uncle are convinced she’s acting out—and she’d have good reason to, considering they won’t tell her where her father is—but she can’t seem to convince them she isn’t the one trashing her bedroom and setting fires. Unlikely as it seems, Yvette must be the culprit. There’s nothing more dangerous than a jealous doll who knows all your secrets…

A digitally narrated paranormal 80s nostalgia lesbian audiobook

Mystic Ridge: A Lesbian Paranormal Novel by Foxglove Lee


At long last, my new novel has hit the market!

Mystic Ridge is a book that features all your favourite ghost story themes and a queer cast of characters. If you love a supernatural tale that begins with one character inheriting a haunted house from an unknown relative, I'll do you one better: the girlfriends in my novel inherit an entire haunted summer resort!

It's October as I write this--the perfect month to read something spooky. So be sure to get your hands on Mystic Ridge. It's the perfect accompaniment to a grey, rainy day or a long, dark night.

When Beverly Landry inherits Mystic Ridge, a glorious yet neglected summer resort, she and her girlfriend begin a new life in the small town of Lament. As soon as Bev’s girlfriend, Cate, arrives on the ridge, she’s plagued by terrifying nightmares involving the death of a beautiful young woman. Everywhere Cate goes, she’s followed by black mist and glowing red eyes. When she sleeps, a demonic force guides her toward the ridge. Every day brings a new vision of death. 

If they stay in Lament, someone is sure to die.

Will Mystic Ridge tear Cate and Bev apart for good, or will a league of unlikely friends help the couple defeat the evil living on their land?

Queer Ghost Stories Volume One: 4 Tales of the Paranormal

Who needs sleep? Not you! You’d rather stay up late reading these spine-chilling ghost stories!

Throughout four tales of the paranormal, queer characters meet with fates beyond their wildest imaginings as they are confronted by spirits from all walks of life… with shocking results.

In THE WITCH OF THE WINTER WOODS, Nicole couldn’t be more nervous about meeting her girlfriend’s parents this Christmas. On her way to their house in rural Maryland, she nearly collides with a barefoot old woman standing in the road. Strange things happen: a chase through the snow, a stone cottage in the woods, a raging fire. Will Nicole make it out alive?

Tucker and his boyfriend are the best in their field in THE FUTURE IS DEADLY. They organize estate sales, using their keen eyes and marketing know-how to earn big bucks for their clients. But when they’re hired to clear out a mysterious gothic manor house, Tucker discovers a set of vintage sunglasses. Through their shaded lenses, he sees a murder that has yet to take place. What lengths will he go to in order to keep the victim safe?

What could follow in our series of supernatural stories? Why, it’s GHOST RADIO, the tale of a transgender teen spending the summer with her cousin. When the pair finds a mysterious radio in a dilapidated shack in the woods, Emily can’t get enough of the music it plays. There are tales, in town, of a ghostly DJ who draws teens to their deaths. Could Emily be next on his list?

In GHOST GALLERY, Xan has just landed his dream job at a prestigious art gallery. There’s only one problem: the place is haunted. When Xan stays late to meet his favourite transgender artist, will he come face to face with an apparition from another time? And, if he does, can he finally solve the mystery of the gallery ghost?

Dive into four tales of the paranormal in Queer Ghost Stories Volume One by Foxglove Lee.

We're Here! We're Queer! We're Ghost Stories!

There's nothing I love more than a spooky story. 

I grew up watching Twilight Zone re-runs. When my younger brother watched Goosebumps and Are You Afraid of the Dark? on TV, I found some excuse to be in the room. I was too old for kid shows, so I couldn't admit I wanted to watch them. Now I'm the total opposite: I'm not too old for anything, and I'm not ashamed to tell you I watched every episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark? that I could find on Netflix, and I'm working my way through Goosebumps as we speak.

Ghost stories are the greatest.  That's why I've started a new series called Queer Ghost Stories, paranormal tales featuring LGBTQ characters. These stories are perfect for those of us who grew up loving Goosebumps, The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, The X-Files, Tales from the Crypt, all that.  

If you like spooky stuff, this series is for YOU!

To be totally honest, I started writing my Queer Ghost Stories just to entertain myself. It was a totally selfish venture. But I think that's when an author's writing is at its best.

You can expect one new queer ghost story every month, and you'll find a listing of my ebooks at this special page: https://foxglovelee.blogspot.ca/p/queer-ghost-stories.html

As with episodes of The Twilight Zone and Goosebumps, you can enter this series at any point.  The stories all work independently of one another, so read them in any order.

If you love ghost stories as much as I do, I invite you to enter the world of Queer Ghost Stories today!

Nostalgia, Nirvana, the Nineties: Top Ten Ways to Die

https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=vKp3DgAAQBAJ

When I hear myself saying my latest release is close to my heart, I have to laugh a little. Because I say that about ALL my books, don't I? But when I described my new novelette Top Ten Ways to Die to my sister, she said, "Wow, you really put a lot of yourself into this one."

It's lesbian fiction. It deals with the death of a parent. It incorporates plenty of arguments with Mom--about Nirvana, about clothing, about whether that goth girl Tara is a bad influence. It reverberates with the shock a whole class feels (teacher included) when one student tries to commit suicide.

There's a lot packed into this piece. And did I mention it's set in 1994? What else is new, right? In case you haven't memorized my back list, it just so happens my book Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost is also set in 1994, as is Gayboy (also known as And Plaid All Over).

Why 1994?

Well, here's the thing: I tried really hard to set this story in any other year. Any year but 1994! But when I got into research mode, I soon discovered one of the essential elements of Top Ten Ways to Die (Kurt Cobain's suicide) occurred in... you guessed it... 1994. Turns out I can't get away from this year.

As much as Top Ten Ways to Die is fiction about teenagers, I can't help but wonder if I didn't write it more as nostalgic fiction for my own generation--for people who want to stroll down memory lane, relive the 90s from a teenage perspective. I find that whenever I write young adult books set in the 80s or 90s, the readers who really eat them up are the adults who came of age during those decades.


When Jess’s dad dies unexpectedly, her world is turned upside-down. The only good things left in life are her girlfriend Tara and Kurt Cobain’s tortured grunge sound. But when a classmate attempts suicide, Jess goes into a downward spiral. Her mom is afraid she’s obsessed with death, and doesn’t want her hanging out with Tara or listening to Nirvana. What’s left for Jess in Hicksville if everything she loves is taken away?

Tiffany and Tiger’s Eye: A Paranormal Young Adult Lesbian Romance Novel

https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=vxUgDgAAQBAJ


Once upon a time a queer author named Foxglove Lee wrote a lesbian novel set in 1986. Tiffany and Tiger's Eye was originally published by a small LGBT press, but it's recently been reissued by me. New edition, new cover. In fact, TWO new covers! I decided on different covers for the ebook and paperback editions. Why not? You only live once.

So, wow, I just realized Tiffany and Tiger's Eye is set more than 30 years in the past. Time flies!

https://www.kobo.com/ca/en/ebook/tiffany-and-tiger-s-eye-1
I want everyone to run right out and grab a copy. Tiffany and Tiger's Eye is my favourite of all the works of fiction I've written. I want my words to find their way to the readers who need them, so tell your friends! Yes, this is YA but it works just as well as retro/nostalgia fiction for those of us who grew up in the 80s.

Basically I wrote Tiffany and Tiger's Eye (as an adult) for my 14-year-old self: the kid who loved to read but never could find age-appropriate lesbian fiction on the library shelves. Looking back, I think the reason I started reading literary fiction at quite a young age is... that's where the lesbians were! Yay! I found them!

These days there are plenty of queer books for teens, but that doesn't mean we queer authors need to stop writing them. I want more, more, more, and so do readers!

If you're hooked on lesbian fiction, read Tiffany and Tiger's Eye.

If you're ready to time-travel back the 80s, read Tiffany and Tiger's Eye.

If you're intrigued by evil dolls, read Tiffany and Tiger's Eye.

If you love mysteries, secrets and family drama, read Tiffany and Tiger's Eye.

If you can't wait for the next season of Stranger Things, read Tiffany and Tiger's Eye.

There are pretty much 15 million reasons to read Tiffany and Tiger's Eye.

Happy Valentine's Day! You're Getting A Free Book!

I promised you a great gift for Valentine's Day, and here it is: for a limited time only, you can grab a copy of Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost absolutely FREE at certain retailers.

Is it weird to give a Christmas ebook as a V-Day gift? Yeah, probably, but oh well. 

Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost was written for younger young adults (the main character is 14), but I write books that keep me entertained as an adult, so I recommend it for all ages. It's set in 1994, so blast from the past if you grew up in the nineties! (Or if you were alive in the nineties!) And if you weren't... we didn't have cell phones then. Well, I didn't. I think they existed, but only hotshots had them. 

Here's me going blah-blah-blah when all you're really interested in is where you can get this fabulous book at this fabulous price. (Although, if you want to hear more of my blah-blah-blah about the book, read my post about it: http://foxglovelee.blogspot.ca/2014/12/what-do-seinfeld-show-boat-and-that-70s.html )

If you just want your free book with no fuss, here's where to go:

What do Seinfeld, Show Boat and That 70s Show all have in common?

Big news! I've written my third full-length book just in time for the holidays.  It's called Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost and it's now available as an ebook and in print.

If you've read the blurb, the first thing you probably noticed was that Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost is set in 1994.  Why 1994, you ask?  Well, I think I got that idea when I was watching an episode of Seinfeld. Maybe you've had this experience too.  You look at the date the episode came out and go: "1994, oh yeah, that was 5 years ago... 10 years ago... wait, that was 20 years ago?"  And then you wonder what you've been doing for the past 20 years.

Around the same time, I was helping my mother clean her basement (a never-ending task) and I came across a hatbox containing all the programs I'd kept from the musicals I saw in the late 80s and early 90s.  I flipped through the one from Show Boat (which I wanted to show you, but seem to have temporarily misplaced) and nearly did a back flip when I spotted Cloris Leachman listed among the cast.  Apparently, in the mid-90s, I didn't know who she was because it didn't make a dent on my memory. Anyway, you'll notice, when you read the book, that Show Boat is woven into one scene.

Aside from all that, 1994 is kind of the year of my existence I'm always writing for.  When I wrote Tiffany and Tiger's Eye, I was writing it for ME at that age, but I set Tiff/Tiger in 1986.  The 90s just didn't seem distant enough. But now, considering 1994 was 20 years ago, I figured maybe it had reached retro status. A fourteen-year old reading Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost wouldn't have been born in 1994.  Heck, an
18-year-old wouldn't have been. It's like my experience with That 70s Show.  If memory serves, the first season was set in 1978? (yeah, that's a question because I'm not going to bother looking it up right now). I wasn't alive in 1978, so when I watched that show some things felt familiar and close-at-hand (I grew up wearing clothes like that) and other things felt retro and recent-history-ish. Hopefully younger people will have that experience with Sylvie.

Though my main character in this book is 14, I enjoyed reading it as an adult.  And you're probably thinking, "I HOPE you enjoyed it--you wrote the book, after all," but let me tell you: by the final proofing stage you've read your own book so many times you usually want to burn the manuscript (which is hard to do when it's a computer file). With Sylvie, I LOVED the book the whole way through. My editor enjoyed it too, and that's a compliment I really appreciated.  Editors don't always express a level of like or dislike for any given manuscript.

So now it's your turn.  If you're in the Christmas spirit, grab a copy of Sylvie and the Christmas Ghost from one of the retailers below:

UPDATE: The print version has popped up on Amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/Sylvie-Christmas-Ghost-Foxglove-Lee/dp/1505351774/ref=foxglovelee-20 but it doesn't seem to be hooked up with the e-book yet. They're both there, but in different places.

Turns out a new student doesn't believe in gender-conformity. He’s a Goth guy who wears whatever he wants, including skirts. This ninth grader's got guts!
 
Mila and Laura have been dating since last school year and they haven't even kissed in public. Will this young student who isn't afraid of anyone inspire them to come out, or will other kids' reactions drive them deeper into the closet?
 
LGBTQ fiction from the author of Tiffany and Tiger’s Eye & Truth and Other Lies!

Happy Birthday, Klutzface will be FREE May 12-16th 2014

When my contract expired on "Happy Birthday, Klutzface" and my rights reverted to me, I marched them straight over to Amazon so fans of Mila and Laura wouldn't miss them too much.

(Remember Mila and Laura? From "I Hate Love"?)

Don't rush over to buy a copy just yet! (Well, you can if you really want to. I would love that, actually.)  But "Happy Birthday, Klutzface" will be FREE from May 12-16th 2014, so if you can hold off for just a few more day's you'll get yours free.

And you should definitely snag a copy because it's a funny little story. It's sooo cute!
Laura and Mila from “I Hate Love” are back in this birthday comedy by Foxglove Lee!

It’s a comedy of errors when Laura prepares a romantic dinner for Mila’s birthday. Laura isn't the world's best cook to begin with, but everything goes wrong in the immaculate home Mila's housesitting for her aunt. The cat escapes, the parmesan explodes, the fire alarm blares, and the trouble's only just begun!

Laura and Mila wanted to share an evening of domestic bliss. Will their glimpse at adult life drive them into each other's arms, or drive them apart completely?

A funny story of 5,000 words.

Ask Your Doctor... I mean LIBRARIAN. Ask Your Librarian.

I need your help.  Not your money!  I'm not asking for money, don't worry (unless you really want... well, nah, never mind about that). Just a teensy-tinsy (tinsy?) fraction of your day will do.  Maybe three minutes? Maybe less.

When I was a teen, I read library books. Exclusively. I couldn't afford to buy novels. Are you kidding? My family could barely afford to eat, and I was a voracious consumer of books.  (My brother was a voracious consumer of cereal, but that's a story for another day.)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06VTC7XRR?tag=foxglove-20
As soon as my novel Tiffany and Tiger's Eye came out, the first thing I did was start contacting public libraries across the globe to ask if they'd consider including my book in their collections.

Why was this so important to me? Because when I was growing up, I never did find a young adult novel about a girl who liked girls. That's all I was really looking for. "Please, why can't there be a lesbian novel in this library!" So, twenty years later, I wrote one for my younger self.  And I hope young people today will find what I never could.

This is where you come in.

Are you ready?

I need your help to make Tiffany and Tiger's Eye available IN YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY.  Do want a quality LGBT fiction to be made available to young adults in your area, so they won't feel as alone as I did at that age? Of course you do!

So let your library know you want to see Tiffany and Tiger's Eye on their shelves.


How? I don't know how!  Tell me how!!!


Okay, no problem.  Here's how:

1. Go to your library's website.
2. Search your library's catalog. If Tiffany and Tiger's Eye is there, your work is done. Check it out and read it. It's great!
3. If it's not there, look for a link that says "Suggest a Purchase." (this might be in an "About Us" section or buried somewhere. If you hunt for it and can't find it, click on "Contact Us" or something similar.)
4. You might have to sign in with your library card. You might not. Depends on the library.
5. Give your library as many details as you can about the book you're suggesting. In this case...

(Updated February15, 2017)  
Title: Tiffany and Tiger's Eye
Author: Foxglove Lee
Book Format: Book and Ebook are both available--select the one YOU want to see in your library
Paperback ISBN: 9781543006230
Ebook ISBN: 9781370136216

Year of Publication: 2017
Adult, Teen, or Children's book?: Teen

If the form asks why the library should consider purchasing this book or where you heard about it, be honest. If you heard about it right here, right now, you can tell them that--author's website, online--and as for why? Well, I can only hope that if you're still reading, it's because you want to see quality, age-appropriate LGBT fiction available for young people in your area.

6. If your library system doesn't have a specific "Suggest a Purchase" form, you might have to send them an email or use a "Contact Us" form. Just let them know that you're contacting them because you want to see Tiffany and Tiger's Eye by Foxglove Lee in your local library. Send them all that book information I've listed above.

See? That was pretty easy!

You can recommend any book for purchase, but most library systems request that you don't submit forms for books over 2 years old or books that are bestsellers/by bestselling authors. Don't worry--neither is the case, here. *wry laughter*

Just because you submit a purchase suggestion doesn't automatically mean your library will buy the book you want to read, but in the case of an indie-published LGBT novel like Tiffany and Tiger's Eye, libraries aren't going to acquire copies unless YOU--the citizens, the people, the readers!--ask for it.

(By the way, if you're still saying, "Shut up and take my money," here's what you can do: buy a copy or copies of Tiffany and Tiger's Eye to DONATE to your local library. Links are below. And I'm sure your library will love you as much as I do!)
