June is PRIDE Month!

During the next following weeks, we will feature interviews of queer creators. Discussing their inspirations for their projects and experience as IF creators, we want to shed a light on their journey.

Here are our month’s featured authors, please check out their works and join us in supporting them!

Kit, Author of The Northern Passage

It’s cold, so cold, and your head aches, your ears pop, water choking your throat and nose, all you can do is watch as the sky gets farther and farther away from you. Clawed hands grab at your ankles, your legs, your arms, pulling you down, tearing at your clothes and piercing your skin.

You convulse violently, your body struggling to expel the water from your lungs as more floods in.

Staring up into the fading light, you feel your body grow weak, giving in, sinking now, your blood churning all around you in the water. A hand grabs at your throat, caressing a thumb over your skin, pulling you down as the dark water turns red.

The Northern Passage is an 18+ horror fantasy CYOA, where you play as a hunter sent up north to investigate a series of missing people along the border of your home country and in the port cities of the Blackwater. Working with your handler, Lea, you will travel north and discover that things are far worse than you ever could have imagined, and that there is something powerful lurking out in the deep, dark sea…

Anna, Author of Wayfarer

When your mercenary work backs you into a corner, you take the only option available and accept a contract: to travel to the city of Velantis and steal an ancient artifact said to be blessed by the gods. Simple, right?

But Velantis holds more than you bargained for. Gathering a ragtag party of malcontents and renegades from across the city, you must navigate enemy factions, meddling guilds, and escalating political tensions. Your choices will ultimately determine the city’s fate – and the fate of every person who lives there.  

Wayfarer is a dark fantasy interactive fiction game. You play as a Wayfarer, a member of an order of warriors born with magical immunity in a world dominated by magic. It is currently in development. The full game will include three acts and a total of 14 chapters.

Jupiter, Author of Supernova: Renegade

In the distant future, Humanity has mastered space travel and joined the intergalactic community run by an alliance known as the Galactic Board for Interplanetary Peace. While none of the GBIP species have their own military, there is still a need for a peace-keeping force. Thus, the Arbiters were created.

You have just joined the Arbiter ranks—whether you wanted to or not. This prestigious position comes with a fair amount of perks, including your own ship and crew. However, it’s also the most dangerous job in the galaxy. When a small colony faces an attack from an unknown source, you’re sent to investigate. What you uncover reveals a danger far greater—and far closer to home—than you could have ever expected.

Brigid, Author of Event Horizon

[EVENT HORIZON] is a science-fiction-horror story, set far into a future in which humans are not alone in a hostile galaxy.

The Failsafe has been activated. War lingers on the horizon. Five years ago, you were one of the last people to be selected for the Failsafe and Final Stand Programs. You were frozen in time, placed into orbit at the edge of the solar system. And now, you’re hurtling through space towards a ship you’ve never seen before. The Nomad. A secret mission beyond the edge of the solar system, to stop the Enemy before they can begin their second invasion. A suicide mission. A point of no return.

Read more about Event Horizon here. Play the Demo here or here (18+).

Brigid is also the author of Lost Birds (link, 18+) and CLOSEDLOOP (link, 18+).

Abigail, Author of Willow Creek Run

It’s finally summer and you’re spending it in your childhood home of Willow Creek. It’s a small, idyllic town in mid-America filled with rolling green hills, winding streams, and miles and miles of horse country. Most of the population learned to ride before they learned to walk, and you are no exception. 

You’ve agreed to help out at your father’s training and boarding stable because he’s fallen on hard times and can’t afford the summer help he needs. He’s been missing payments to the bank, and if he doesn’t pay in full soon they’ll either take the farm or he’ll be forced to sell out to his old rival, Alexander Mannor. 

Your only hope is to win the town’s summer-end competition, Willow Creek Run, and use the prize money and prestige to pay your father’s debts and save the farm. The problem is that you don’t have a horse of your own to enter and you haven’t competed in years.

Just when it looks like all hope is lost, a mysterious horse turns up on your father’s property with no sign of an owner and a wild look in its eye. Could this be the sign you’ve been looking for? You have the whole summer to train your horse, make friends (or enemies!), and do your best to prepare for Willow Creek Run.

Maxim, Author of Werewolf Noir

Set in a modern fantasy world, Werewolf Noir is a dark mystery where you’re looking for the person who killed your kid. If it’s for justice or revenge is up to you. You play as a relatively new werewolf after having lost everything and everyone, now living in the city of Reaver, corruption runs deep through the system and the richer someone is the more corrupt they are. Meet interesting characters and ro’s as you put the puzzle pieces together, get adopted by a tiny little pup or kitten, and pick out your new career path (private detective, bounty hunter, criminal) to make ends meet as you navigate this world and try to keep the wolf inside contained.

Read More about Werewolf Noir here. Play the Demo here. Maxim is also the author of Ichor: Awakening (TBA) and A Hero’s Job (TBA)

Jessamine, Author of The Black River

Somewhere, somehow, you lost your memories. You’re aware that–whatever it was that happened –it involved chanting cultists, and horrible serrated knives, but unfortunately none of those nice gentlemen are around to explain what’s going on to you. Oh… and also it seems that whatever they did with the aforementioned chanting and knives tore a hole in the fabric of reality and opened a gateway from the world of the living to the Underworld.

Which you fell through.

And now you’re stuck, despite your best efforts, on an antique ship from several centuries ago, with a crew of dead sailors and a motley assemblage of others from the living world. You don’t know what’s going on back in the world where you’re supposed to be, but you know that it can’t be good.

In order to get home, you’ll have to help sail the Will-o’-wisp across the length of the Black River, uncovering truths that change the entire way you view the world and fighting villains whose ambitions extend to the very act of deicide.

And you’d quite like to get your memories back, while you’re at it.

Nell, Author of Body Count

Your life isn’t going how you’d hoped. Despite having big plans when you graduated, you're stuck in a dead end job and a crappy flat with zero romantic life to speak of. All until a friend convinces you to join the cast of a new reality TV show.

The premise is simple: 12 singles are sent to a villa on a tropical island and they live there together for a month. After 28 days, the couple who is voted by the other islanders as being most likely to withstand the test of time will win £500,000. In addition, the couple with the highest body count will win £500,000. Total prize pool? £1,000,000. 

In this context, “body count” refers to how many people you’ve slept with... right? Well, that’s what you think when you sign your contract. Turns out, though, that not all of your fellow cast members will be using that definition to get to the prize. 

Fall in love, win big money, solve some murders and try to stay alive.

Heather B., Author of Jade Empire: Shadow of the Lotus

Legend tells of the Spirit Monks; servants of the Water Dragon, shepherds of the dead, warriors without peer. Though their order was all but wiped from existence forty years ago, they are slowly but surely rebuilding themselves. Young warriors from across the Jade Empire dream of joining their ranks.

You are no different.

You are the newest initiate of the Spirit Monk Order; raised in the idyllic Two Rivers and trained by a living legend, you are a martial arts prodigy. As the junior member of the Order, you travel the Empire, dealing with lost and vengeful spirits. But shadows of something far more sinister lurk on the horizon, and it’s up to you and your allies to unravel the dark mystery before it’s too late...

1,3,24!!

ok so these are extremely hard questions, so thanks for that.

1. favorite fic you wrote this year

i can’t choose! persistence of memory was my first sc fic and i’m proud of how it turned out. i’m also really proud of my frozen over fics because i can’t believe i actually finished them. auf wiedersehen, a bientot was heartbreaking to write but i’m happy with it. that doesn’t answer the question but that’s all you’re going to get, sorry. 

3. favorite line/scene you wrote this year

i think my favorite scene is [redacted until frozen over creators are revealed] but since that’s a cop out, i think the winter scene from time will say nothing

24. favorite fic you read this year

listen i have consumed a LOT of fic in the last few months and when someone asks me my favorite of anything i immediately forget everything i’ve ever liked. so here’s some fics that i continued to think about after reading them: 

at the right time, in the right surroundings (spelling___bee) - i had a lot of feelings about this. queer imposter syndrome is a thing.

a good person (myolivebranch) - patrick should have been in the sebastien raine episode and i love this take on it

it’s time (lisamc21) - the whole signed sealed delivered series is great but i especially loved this one

braced myself for the goodbye (cause it’s all i’ve ever known) (patrckbrewrr) - i just love a good bit of introspection about david and his anxiety

i’m going to stop now because otherwise this post will be like four miles long

#thanks for asking!

Santa Baby by @obsessedwithdavrick

[David/Patrick - G - 2,800]

Stevie has managed to coerce David to take his favourite small human to the mall for Santa photos. Underneath the beard and red suit, David is mesmerised by Santa's twinkling whiskey eyes.

A very, VERY sweet Christmas meet cute.

A taste of you by lizzie_bennetdarcy (@lizzie-bennetdarcy)

[David/Patrick, Stevie & David - T - 4,554]

So here he is, alone. In this stupid Elmdale strip mall, in a space he is certain does not live up to health code standards. He looks around the room and sees mostly couples, which only serves to drive home the fact that he is so, so very single this holiday season.

Or...

David and Patrick meet at random at a holiday cake pop decorating class

Cabin Fever by iola17 (@beaiola)

[David/Patrick - E - 17,880]

When he hears that Twyla's cousin has a place he rents out, David leaps at the chance to have some time on his own away from his sister in the next bed, and his parents in the next room, to think about what he's going to do with the Blouse Barn money. What he isn't expecting is for the guy who delivers firewood to the guests in the cabin to be so ridiculously gorgeous.

He really doesn't need the distraction. Unfortunately, the more he gets to know Patrick, the harder it is to ignore his growing attraction.

I'll Keep You Warm in the Storm by Turkey_Virgin (@tyfinn)

[David/Patrick, David & Patrick - T - 3,022]

David and Patrick get stranded during a freak winter storm while on a vendor run.

Is this the chance they need to admit the feelings they have for one another?

Where the Lovelight Gleams by @distractivate

[Stevie & David, David/Patrick - NR - 6,834]

Stevie and David have not spoken in fifty-eight days. But the holidays are a time for friends to set aside grievances, and, when that doesn't work, some well intended meddling from the people who love them.

Just because you like to wander, that doesn't mean you don't know the way by lonely_ampersand (@smblmn)

[David/Patrick - T - 9,439]

“David, what I’m about to say is going to sound very weird, but hear me out… my parents are trying to set us up.”

A surprised laugh escapes David, he had wondered the night before, but still… “What? No, that's not possible. No parent has ever wanted me as a partner for their child.”

“Well, they do. Mostly Mom, but Dad is on board too, even if he isn’t trying as actively as she is.”

(E)Tea for Two by trickiwoo (@trickiwooao3)

[David/Patrick - M - 9,647]

Extraterrestrial Tea artist David Rose and numbers guy Patrick Brewer know each other only through their fractious emails--until they are assigned to plan the end of year employee party together. Will a partnership so steeped in frustration brew up trouble--or a cup of cheer?

and then one day, everything changed by railmedaddy (@rmd-writes)

[David/Patrick, Stevie & David - T - 9,188]

All David wants to do is sign Marcy Brewer on to sell her amazing fudge at Rose Apothecary. Unfortunately for him, her very snippy, business consultant son gets involved. In an effort to win both Marcy and Patrick over, David invites Patrick to spend some time in the store and on a vendor trip. There’s snow forecast for the day of the vendor trip, but it’s Schitt’s Creek and it never snows. Right?

Like Nothing I'd Seen Before by @statueinthestone

[David/Patrick - M - 14,248]

Patrick hides in New York during New Year's Eve after breaking up with Rachel, again.

David gets abandoned by his so-called friends on New Year’s and starts heading home.

They meet and kiss.

Then David suddenly vanishes without a trace.

Will they find each other again?

[podfic] happy golden days of yore by @celeritas2997

[David/Patrick - M - 1h:56m:37s]

“What are you doing here?”

Patrick blinks beneath the toque shoved onto his head, steadily dripping melting snow from his coat onto the mat they once purchased together. “Um… it’s my weekend."

What? David is already shaking his head, but Patrick takes a step forward, eyes wide, skin pale despite his cold-flushed cheeks.

“I get Christmas. You get New Years. I thought..." Patrick trails off and licks his lips. Behind him, snow blows in through the still-open doorway. "I thought that's what we agreed."

I Love You A Latke by FicsFromABrokenChair

[David/Patrick, Stevie & David, Patrick & Stevie - T - 6,692]

It's David and Patrick's first holiday season as a married couple. The apothecary is busier than ever (read: stressful) and David is missing the other Roses. But Patrick makes everything okay.
