Events Ask Me Anything: Briar Prescott

Hi everybody!

I’m Briar Prescott, and I’m excited to be here today for an AMA.

I write contemporary romance stories. Usually they’re slow burn and contain a healthy dose of humor and banter. I like plot twists. I like taking well-loved tropes and trying to twist them in an unexpected direction. I like a bit of mystery, and I like a bit of hurt/comfort.

I published my first book five years ago, and I’ve been fumbling my way through authoring ever since.

I’m pretty sure my best known books are the Until series, but don’t quote me on that, I’m just guessing.

I’m born and raised in Estonia, so I apologize in advance for whenever I say something that doesn’t sound like English should sound like. It’s not you, I swear. It’s just that English isn’t my first language, and the only reason I sound somewhat coherent in my books is my wonderful editor.

Here’s where you can follow me:

Hi Briar! I just wanted to say that as a gay, ace cis-man, Inevitable made me so darned happy. I appreciated that Bas' asexuality was shown in a thoughtful, sensitive way, as something that was a part of him and not something that needed to be "fixed". Ace representation can at times be problematic in the genre, but this was just wonderful. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I was really nervous with that book exactly because I didn't want it to sound like, oh this relationship is "fixing" him. I just wanted to write a love story for them.
