This week, Emily tells us about queer historical fantasy A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske, while Rebecca shares fictional oral history The Final Revival of Opal & Nev by Dawnie Walton. We talk about the people who inspired us to write, share the meanings of some gemstones, and Emily has a giggle-induced breakdown! 

Thank you to Black Crow and Tor for gifting a copy of A Marvellous Light to Emily.
