Swords & Sapphics Podcast
Swords & Sapphics is a podcast about all things sapphic hosted by Rachel and Ivy (may include sharp objects). You can expect a new episode centred around representation, queer media, Women with a capital W, and a little bit of nonsense every Wednesday!
Rachel and Ivy are long-distance best friends who are probably (okay, most definitely) soul mates. Rachel is a pansexual romance author from Manchester, UK. You can follow her on Twitter and Instagram.
Ivy is a bisexual marketing specialist and bookworm from Prague, Czech Republic. You can follow her on Instagram and Twitter.
Would you like to be featured on our blog and/or in our monthly queer book releases? We're always excited to have more guests. More information here.

Rachel Bowdler

Her debut novel, Honeymoon for One, was published with Embla Books in November 2022 and she currently has a large catalogue of queer novellas to indulge in which you can purchase here!
