🗺️ Welcome to The Valdai Romance Universe: A Guide to the Archive 🗺️

My alternative 19th-century bilingual world is vast, exploring intense psychological slow-burn dynamics across the asexual spectrum. To help new readers navigate, here are the three distinct layers of my literary work:

📖 1. The Main Canon
The core timeline. An ongoing multichapter emotional saga following the gravity-defying connection between an alien engineer Virgil Carter and a lonely Valdai herbalist Januar Walday.

⏳ 2. Standalone Stories (Canon Companions)
Canon historical layers and side-stories exploring the characters' lives across different eras. This includes deep dives into their youth and past memories, as well as standalone emotional snapshots set in the present and even the future of the main timeline.

🌌 3. Alternative Universes (AU / Spin-offs)
The timelines where the year 1838 remains the absolute, unchangeable anchor of fate. Virgil and Januar are destined to meet in 1838 no matter what, but the circumstances of their crossroads shift dramatically - from a desperate rescue at a lonely estate to a fateful encounter at an old tavern. Deep psychological snapshots exploring intense tactile hunger across the asexual spectrum.

🔗 All stories are original fiction and completely FREE to read. Choose your doorway into the universe via the link:

✨ Introducing "The Valdai Romance" (Валдайский Романс) — A 19th-Century Queer & Asexual Canon ✨

Too often, historical narratives erase the quiet, burning intensity of asexual love. I wrote this story to reclaim it.

About the Canon:
A story of fierce tenderness and tactile passion between a young Cleveland gentleman of ancient blood and a mysterious Valdai herbalist. In an alternative 19th century, these two men — who by all laws of chance should never have met — are thrust together by fate.
Their world is woven from endless kisses, lingering embraces, and a sensory intimacy so dense it needs no sexual act to be complete. From this devotion, they build a home and a family where none seemed possible, proving that love is not a script to be followed, but a life to be shared.

It is a slow-burn, emotional MLM fiction exploring toric and asexual spectrum dynamics where love burns hotter without sex. This project is also part of my broader mission: reclaiming the Russian language for queer narratives that are currently suppressed, and bridging them with global queer experiences.

📚 Bilingual & Free Experience:
I am thrilled to share that the first 50 chapters of this canon are now available to read on Medium completely for free.

The text is presented in a bilingual format (Russian & English). Whether you want to immerse yourself in the story, immerse yourself in Russian-English expression, or use it as an engaging tool to practice and learn Russian or English, this format is designed to bridge global queer experiences.

📖 Read the first 50 chapters for free here:

Whether you are a reader looking for intense emotional connection, a language learner, a literary agent, or a fellow creator — welcome. Let's reimagine what romance can be.

I’m Xeni Davyd, a queer author of "The Valdai Romance" and asexual romantic prose, showing that love can burn hotter without sex.
I write primarily in Russian, with bilingual Russian-English expression. My romances focus on touch, closeness, and emotional intensity – hugs, kisses, tender gestures, and the raw heat of connection. Too often, asexual love is dismissed as bland or invisible. I write to prove it is anything but – powerful, passionate, and profoundly alive.

I craft Queer & Literary Fiction, diving deep into the subtle psychology of Slow Burn and Emotional Romance. I am dedicated to exploring the LGBTQIA+ spectrum in both languages, reclaiming the Russian language for queer narratives that are currently suppressed, and bridging them with global queer experiences.

Key Themes & Dynamics:

🏳️‍🌈 Identity & Attraction: Love between boys, young adults, and men (MLM / Achillean), as well as Non-binary characters and Enby x Man (NBLM) dynamics. My stories explore Toric and Viramoric perspectives with deep empathy.

💜 Asexual Spectrum: Asexual Romance, Homoromantic / Androromantic Ace experiences, Alloromantic Asexual narratives, and the nuances of being a Sensual Ace.

✨ Intimacy Beyond the Sexual: A focus on soft intimacy, skin hunger, tactile joy, heavy cuddling, and the vital importance of physical affection.

⚖️ Love Reimagined: Queerplatonic Relationships (QPR), Relationship Anarchy, Egalitarian Love, and the beauty of Balanced Power.

🕊️ Mission: Reclaiming the Russian language for queer narratives that are currently suppressed.

I believe in Asexual Hedonism and the aesthetics of the moment - from simmering Emotional Tension to the "Finality of a Kiss" (Kissing As Climax). My characters seek Equal Footing and solidarity, transforming Sensual Non-sexual closeness into a supreme form of passion.

It’s 05:00 and I’m tip-toeing to the skip with bin bags full of stuff wearing a grubby old tracksuit. My girlfriend Dani suggested bringing stuff home to charity shop it, but I don’t think anyone will want a well used tea spoon from Tenby, a souvenir of a 1970s holiday. The company are going to take this skip away, and next weekend I’ll drive back and fill it up again. What a time to be alive.

So late that I cannot recall
The reason for touching my pen to paper
To record this latest downfall
In the street below a shout echoes
A blurry swift noise of the night...

She Is Here—Still Here!

US: Bookshop.org | Amazon | Barnes and Noble | PM Press
UK: Amazon | Waterstones | Blackwells | WH Smith

Tuesday is traditionally book-launch day. Today She Is Here has been out three months but as a small book from a small, independent press known for its anarchist leanings (see two of my favourites from their merch offerings, below) you might not have seen it reviewed in the usual places. (I didn’t go on tour, and did only two book events—one in person right here in Seattle, and one virtual for City Lights in San Francisco.)

Both events were great, and PM Press are very happy because sales have, by their lights, been unexpectedly strong. (Yay!) But I know there are more people out there who might enjoy the book if only they knew about it.

Some might enjoy what Gary Wolfe in his Locus review characterises as the four “good short but stabby poems.” Some might prefer the essays—including epistolary criticism such as “TheWomen You Didn’t See,” which is my analysis of how Tiptree’s identity shaped her short fiction. But what I’m really keen on getting readers to discover are the four pieces of my short fiction—particularly the original novella, Many Things in Dumnet. Why should you seek them out? Well, here I’m going to quote Wolfe again to save me the embarrassment of praising myself:

More than half the book consists of the four fiction selections. The shortest is “Glimmer”… a showpiece for Griffith’s lyrical prose, as a woman (who describes herself as “a cripple”) is transformed as she travels through time and space – “pulsing, lengthening, cooling, a cord stretched past the horizon along which she slides like a bead.” “Down the Path of the Sun”, one of Griffith’s earliest stories, is a grim but powerful postapocalyptic, postplague account of the narrator’s attempts to protect her sister in a violent, desperately diminished world. Both “Cold Wind” and “Many Things in Dumnet” are rare Griffith fantasy stories. “Cold Wind”, which begins in a women’s bar in contemporary Seattle, explores the complex relationships of predator and prey, as both the narrator and the strange woman she meets there both turn out to be not quite what they seem. “Many Things in Dumnet” is set in what appears to be a fantasy version of Griffith’s early medieval Britain, in which a musician, Anya Reine, arrives in Dumnet, “most southwesterly of the kingdoms of Albion,” and quickly lands a gig at a tavern – only to be warned that no one is allowed to perform without the approval of Macalla, who at first appears to be a local crime boss. But Macalla turns out to be far more than that, and so does Anya. Aided by totemic figures such as a silver fox, she eventually finds herself defending the kingdom from the predations of Macalla’s “wodebreath.” Apart from its supernatural fireworks and its convincing portrayal of a haunted medieval setting, the story also serves as a moving paean to the power of music…

Those who follow me on Patreon know quite a bit about Dumnet—it’s part of an SFnal alt-history set in a ninth-century Dumnonia (Cornwall and Devon) in which, over four hundred years earlier, the Fall of Rome coincided with the Fall of Something Nasty From the Sky and utterly changed the trajectories of every civilisation on earth. (I’m choosing my words carefully here.) But as that novel isn’t actually written yet, this novella is presented as a fantasy—the best way for it to make sense as a standalone. And having now written it and read part of it aloud that way, I remembered just how much enjoy writing fantasy: I can feel myself changing my mind. I think I will turn the novel into a a big-ol’ sword-swangin’ alt-history science-fantasy! Full of all those delicious tropes that writing realism (whether historical fiction, crime fiction, contemporary fiction about fighting ableism, science fiction), doesn’t always allow for: Music can save the world! Sex can save the world! Violence can be a good and useful and even, y’know, kind of cool thing! Lather everything in love and lust and loss and longing! And lesbians. And villains—eeeeeevil villains who can be defeated by lusty lesbians who love to sing! Fighting to save the whole fucking *world*!!! Oh, yep now that sounds exciting…

Er, anyway, my point is that if you like novels such as Spear, Hild, Menewood, and Ammonite, you will like this novella. So do me and PM Press and perhaps yourself a favour and go read “Many Things in Dumnet”—only to be found in She Is Here.

To whet your appetite, here are a few nice things people have said about the book:

• “Beyond having an astute way with words, [Griffith] speaks with an emphatic, take-no-prisoners clarity. Griffith plays brilliantly to this strength in her new collection She Is Here.”— Eric Olson, Seattle Times
  
• “Fresh work from [one] of the greats in the queer literary canon! This new book contains essays, poems, art, and stories. Griffith can indeed do it all.” — Autostraddle on She Is Here
  
• “Griffith’s sharp and uncompromising voice comes across clearly in the nonfiction and the interview, but the important news for Griffith’s readers lies in the four short fiction pieces, especially an excellent novella, ‘Many Things in Dumnet’, which is original to the volume [and] serves as a moving paean to the power of music … She is Here is a revealing and rewarding self-portrait of one of our most important—and most outspoken—voices.” —Gary Wolfe, Locus
  
• “A winning survey of Griffith’s work.” — Reactor on She Is Here
  
• “The collection starts with the most shocking piece, Griffith’s ‘A Writer’s Manifesto.’ I was thrilled to hear Griffith read it aloud. ‘I want to write a novel that invades you,’ Griffith said. ‘I want to control what you think and feel, to put you right there, right then, killing and being killed, f—king and being f—ked, cooking and starving, drinking and thinking, barely surviving and absolutely thriving. I want to give you a life you’ve never had and change the one you live.’ From a lesser writer, these few sentences would sound arrogant, even egotistical. As it is, the manifesto is intense and…a little frightening. For Griffith, it’s a distillation of what she wants to do (and what she does) in all of her fiction. She is Here is an excellent and deeply personal introduction to both Griffith’s writing and her perspective on writing.” — Chaitna Deshmukh, The Daily

There she was. I had found Kotohime again. There was no mistaking that glorious ginger hair. I went part-time to the same university she did, so finding her hadn’t been too hard. I had tried to be patient waiting for her to call me, but she hadn’t. So there I was in the cafeteria, waiting to see if she ate lunch there.
