I just published my first novel! (warning, this is an AW post, you've been warned!)

Let me do the MMM pitch: The Lion and the Fox is set in the cutthroat world of Renaissance Florence. When a dead Medici shows up in a male brothel, the powerful family turns to political exile Niccolo Machiavelli to find the murderer. But will Machiavelli be outfoxed? It has spoiled rich boys, prostitutes (male and female!), a mysterious woman, fights, murders, mystery, politics––lots of fun stuff!

And how does Machiavelli have time to run around Florence with three young kids? He doesn't even think about that, assuming his wife, Marietta, will take care of the kids. But when Marietta starts to investigate on her own, she hires a babysitter. (in all seriousness, I included multiple female characters kicking ass, because too often they're left out of history.)

If you're interested, please check it out! I would really love to get more readers and reviews.

Here's another link!

Thanks, guys! And to make it even more MMM-related, I did a lot of the work in the last weeks of my maternity leave. I really needed a break from baby stuff, and an outlet for creativity and brain-work! (brain-work is totally a real thing, I didn't just make it up.)
