queerly_belovedWho here remembers when I recced the Shivadhverse series by copperbadge? Well, entirely by coincidence, there's been an update today! Copperbadge/Sam Starbuck has begun posting the first chapters of the next novel, The Twelve Points of Caleb Canto, to AO3 for early feedback and fan proofing, with new chapters being posted daily; he also has the entire draft up on Google docs for anyone who wants to read the whole thing right now, rather than wait for the chapters to be posted to AO3.
Summary:
For links to the AO3 version as well as the Google Docs links, check out Copperbadge's tumblr post on the matter.
Do you have a rec for this week? Just reply to this post with something queer or queer-adjacent (such as, soap made by a queer person that isn't necessarily queer themed) that you'd, well, recommend. Self-recs are welcome, as are recs for fandom-related content!
Or have you tried something that's been recced here? Do you have your own report to share about it? I'd love to hear about it!

Caleb Canto moved to Askazer-Shivadlakia to live a quiet life, teaching music at a local school and writing pop songs on the side. The country is friendly to trans people, and the school is understanding of his desire to be kinder to the “different” kids than his own teachers were to him. What Caleb did not expect was that a song he wrote would be entered into the Shivadh National Final for Eurovision, or that he would be pulled inexorably into Eurovision and the orbit of the Shivadh royal family. On top of all that, he’s managed to annoy UK rep Buck Havard, a bad boy with big ambitions, who nevertheless follows him home to Askazer-Shivadlakia, claiming he needs peace and quiet to write his next album.
Buck desperately wants to win Eurovision and Caleb desperately wants to avoid the same fate, but it’s not entirely in their hands...
