Might have to check out shipwrecked 😂

😂😂😂

Yep! Working on a digital version this weekend

Agh! Thanks for the shoutout!! ❤️

So I just heard about Gamma Readers from watching a Brandon Sanderson video. I guess there is a precedent for that. I might do a similar thing with The Widow’s Monster, because I’m already identifying some major changes I’ll be implementing

Well, Amazon dropped the ball and approved my paperback two days earlier than I expected soooo go ahead and order your paperbacks for Torch now! Ebook and KU will still be releasing Monday

😍😍😍

Meet Ailènor Deniaud and the dreadwolf from my upcoming gothic dark romance book! A widow finds revenge on those who hurt her the most when a monster sets his sights on her.

The Widow’s Monster, my upcoming gothic, dark romance book 📕 has been sent to beta readers! 😱 😬😅🫣😶‍🌫️🫨😵‍💫

Sometimes! Right now just reading legacy of steel, but when the adhd is adhd’ing, I bounce 😂

Beta Read Application Thank you so much for your interest in beta reading The Widow's Monster! This is my first foray into dark, gothic romance, and I am EXCITED. This is a dark and sexual tale that explores taboo subject...

Someone tell kallmekris I wrote a bunch of 🌶️ in my dark oceanpunk fantasy book series. And I liked it.

I enjoyed doom a lot! Is that the last time we got the rock as a true villain?

PSA: the big spoon is not bigger than the other spoon when fitting two spoons together. I petition we change the language when spooning to “concave forward” and “convex transposed”. It would clear up this misnomer and remove potentially belittling terminology and power dynamics

Got really excited watching Octonauts, because I heard about coral slime and thought “that’s perfect for a dark oceanpunk fantasy book series food.”

It’s not palatable 😑…

Screw it. Someone’s eating coral slime in the 4th book

Ooo, good question! Is there major plot stuff changed? I sent a few specific scenes to the same readers after I changed them, or just told them what I’d changed to see what I thought. Did you get feedback from an editor after the changes?

I will not start reading another book until I’m done with the last one. I will not start reading another book until I’m done with the last one. I will not start reading ano—
I started reading another book.

I think it’s time to do a reread of my innistrad art book for some tonal inspiration for my dark gothic romance WIP

😂 same boat 😅 there are a few of the fantasy heavy hitters that I just haven’t ever delved into 😬

I did it. I did the thing I never thought I’d do. I started an outline and plot work for a cozy, closed door, cosmic romance book 👀

Interesting! So would you say mistborn would be a good place to start?

Nice! I don’t really hear his name come up much when I hear dark or grim dark fantasy, but that’s good to know!. The size of his books is definitely intimidating 😂

Blue Sky reader peeps, I need you to convince me why I should read Brandon Sanderson. I have mad respect for him, and I find his writing speed inspirational, as well as his worldbuilding tips, but I’ve never had an interest in his worlds. I read more dark, weird fantasies, and romance.

There’s a guy on TT named Temu Jellyroll, and that made laugh for a good 5 minutes

It’s a book birthday!!! Can’t believe it’s been one year since I published my debut novel! What a wild ride it’s been, and I’ve found an amazing supportive community who can’t be thanked enough! Swipe through for some stats and s%les!
