#Guilty as ever, the dropped cookie jar shattered at the feet of the kids as their mother stepped in through the door. Glass splayed everywhere as the kids looked on at their mother, hands full of cookies. With a smile and a shake of her head, she took the cookies and usered the two away.

17.03.2025 13:10 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0When I began my career as an author, I paid three thousand dollars to publish my book.
This paid for:
- A cover to be made
- A book description
- Editing both grammar and developmental
- Uploading it to Amazon for me
And now, after 11 years and 18 books later, I am so proud of how far I've come.
Six ereaders featuring various book covers with the tagline "Start a new series by Rhiannon Frater. Read the 1st book for free."
The Amazon boycott is hurting a lot of Indie Authors. My sales are waaaaaay down. If you'd like to support my writing endeavors, you can buy ebooks directly from me.
The first books in my series are free (or pay what you want) in my shop.

Green must be the start of something, not the end.
The #involution is the sword fight clinged metal to metal as the two spiraled around each other and stopped.
"You will not pass betrayer of Glendail!"
"I am not a betrayer! You are betrayer!"
Spiraling back in the opposite directly, the two knights continue to fight over who is the betrayer.

Hang in there, querying is a long process, but I hope it works out for you!
I'm working on two WIPS right now, a superhero novella and a who done it story concept
Ourselves not others
A sort of #involution
