A work in progress (or maybe finished?) version of the cover for Triple Strike: Starfarer's Dream. It shows Alan and Sven standing across from each other, hands cupped together as the look up smiling at fireflies rising into a night sky.

I think the cover might be done??

πŸ’­ Thursday Thoughts πŸ’­

Every story asks for bravery, from the author who wrote it to the reader who finished it.

If a story moved you, surprised you, or stayed with you longer than expected, leaving a review is one of the bravest and kindest ways to support an indie author.

Role Play by Ally Marr is a spicy friends-to-lovers erotic romance with D&D vibes, secret feelings, and the kind of tension that lingers long after the dice stop rolling.

πŸ’­ Thursday Thoughts πŸ’­

Every story asks its author to be brave.

Sometimes that means writing the moment you would rather avoid.

This month, our featured authors are sharing what writing with courage looks like to them.
Because the stories that scare us most are often the ones that matter most. πŸ“–πŸ’š

⚠️ Warning Wednesday ⚠️
Some stories are defined by the journey. Every choice matters, and turning back is not an option.

This week’s featured read centers on a high-stakes journey where the road itself is the risk and survival is never guaranteed.
