Out today in paperback, a trio of short stories by Shira Glassman: Knit One, Girl Two, Fearless, and Your Name Is Love!

Knit One, Girl Two:
Small-batch independent yarn dyer Clara Ziegler is eager to brainstorm new color combinations--if only she could come up with ideas she likes as much as last time! When she sees Danielle Solomon's paintings of Florida wildlife by chance at a neighborhood gallery, she finds her source of inspiration. Outspoken, passionate, and complicated, Danielle herself soon proves even more captivating than her artwork...

Fearless:
Lana Novak hasn’t played violin in over twenty years, her musical life these days confined to being a devoted band mom to her clarinet whiz daughter Robin. She didn’t think she could get back into it after this long, but Melanie Feinberg, the outgoing, enthusiastic, Jewish, and very cute butch orchestra director from Robin’s school, has other ideas.

Your Name Is Love
Energetic royal guard Hadar takes her artist wife Halleli on a scavenger hunt around the city to cure her artist’s block about the lesbian graphic novel she’s supposed to make for the queen.



Longtime followers may remember some of my previous giveaways, which included copies of Knit One, Girl Two, and Tales From Perach, a short story collection that Your Name Is Love originally appeared in. While Your Name Is Love was already available in paperback, this is the first time that Knit One, Girl Two and Fearless are appearing in physical form! But if electronic editions are more your jam, you can also get those from Amazon or Shira's Gumroad account (where Shira will get a bigger kickback than Amazon gives her).

Highly recommend all of Glassman's work! My introduction was one of the Knit One, Girl Two giveaways, and I've since bought all of the Mangoverse in physical copy. My teen loves them.
