A Post about the Queer Anthro Crocodile book
I finally finished my edits for my wip For the Next Killer Who Dies (FTNKWD). I managed to cut about 5K so now it’s only 130,000 words long.
While I wait for beta reader feedback, I wanted to rant about this wip even if this doesn’t make sense to 95% of the people in the world. I love this stupid book and I love my stupid, queer anthro crocs and you’re going to hear all about them because they’re amazing!

Basic summary:
Only defeated rebels get tried for war crimes. That’s why Kingsley, an anthro crocodile, is facing the empire’s noose. To save his life, he’ll have to lie through his teeth and manipulate Alex, a traumatized journalist whose wife Kingsley tortured. What? He’s done worse.

Summary: Kingsley and Nora are at war with each other and Kingsley may have arrested Nora’s girlfriend…
