I’m so glad I’m not the only one who needs to dissociate for a while after teaching (also, my sympathies!)

EVERYONE GO READ OLEANDER’S BOOK

Book cover for the wards will fall. It features a man with dark curly hair and olive times skin on the front. He is looking concerned with a hand raised. Golden wards are tattooed on the side of his head and back of his hands. He is wearing an elaborate coat covered in silver rocs. A shadow is behind him with many horns and a golden eye. The title says the wards will fall. Underneath it says oleander craw.

THE WARDS WILL FALL release day! (M/M dark fantasy)

🥀 A rogue saint with no allies
💫 Sentient magic that can remake reality

#DVpit #A #F #LGBT #DF #TV

Yes!! Maybe I need a Hani POV pitch 😆

Thank you!!

OMELASxJASMINE THRONE

👑 A dispossessed prince
🗡️ The vengeful saint still bound to him

The only way to stop it is to set aside their enmity, but trust doesn't come easy—and it may destroy them both.

Ahh thank you so much!! Good luck to you as well!

Thank you so much!

This sounds fascinating! Good luck pitching!

BONE SHARD DAUGHTERxUNBROKEN

As a kid, Prince Marin unwittingly aided his parents' murder; now, he wants to avenge them. However, his old home rests on injustice, and he must decide: claim his birthright or do what's right—even if that means allying with the man who took it away. #DVpit #A #F #LGBT

This sounds SO fun! Love the frankly troubling levels of ambition I’m sensing here

Thank you!! I’m v glad that caught your interest, because it was a pain to fit into the pitch hahah

❤️‍🔥memento mori❤️‍🔥

OMELASxJASMINE THRONE

20 years ago, a saint—an unwilling vessel for magic—usurped the throne he was bound to. Now, the rightful heir wants vengeance—and has to face the rot at the core of their power. To fix it, they must join forces with the man who murdered their family.

Higher Magic propped up against a white gnarly pumpkin and a big orange pumpkin on a bed of fall leaves.

It’s book day!!!

HIGHER MAGIC is out in the US today! UK readers, it’s coming your way November 20th. I’m so excited for you all to meet Bartleby, Anne, and the rest of the gang. ✨

Ohhh I'm already excited for this! Stunning moodboard as always, but you had me at political intrigue and enemies to lovers!

Excerpt from the beginning of a prologue: The door to Caelius’ prison inched open. Fresh air he couldn’t taste gusted through, sweeping the flames of the candles lining the room into a frenzied dance. None of them went out, as none of them could—they were the constant watchers over the dusk of his confinement, kept alight by the same power that trapped him. His power.

#DVparty day 3! Here are the opening lines of my dark fantasy about revenge, sentient magic, and the realisation that the world you idealised is founded on injustice (and also, messy gays falling in love). #A #F #DF #LGBT

Yay thank you so much!

Hell yeah my fingers are so crossed!!

Ahh thank you, that’s really kind!

Thank you so much!
