A banner image for A Month of Rain and Reads featuring an illustrated autumnal scene with a dragon wearing spectacles and reading a book in an armchair. There is also a ghost cat playing with the dragon's tail. In the background are bookshelves, a cup of tea, pumpkins, candles, and rain lashing the window. The art was designed by Arden Powell.

If you're okay with Middle Grade and classical music, I really like the audiobooks for these! www.audible.co.uk/series/The-M...

This YA series is also fun, they're interconnected standalones and the author narrated them herself. www.audible.co.uk/series/Kingd...

Long shot (mainly due to how little engagement I get on here), but I'm looking for freelance writers with an interest, or specialism in, classical music.

If you are one, or know one, please give me a shout.

Hand holding paperback copies of Nameless Queen by Marie Sinadjan

Artwork of Hel by Marion Janella, from The Prophecies of Ragnarok series by Meri Benson and Marie Sinadjan. She has thin, gray-toned skin, long white hair billowing behind her, eyes glowing teal, lips a reddish brown matching her dress. Her dress is body hugging and is open around the navel and left ribcage, with a rib peeking through. A bone-like choker is on her neck with a pendant also glowing teal. A quote at the bottom is highlighted: "You have a good heart, Sigridr. And it will be the death of you." (Quote from book 2, Monster Ridge.)

All things end, and all must die.
But death is not always the end.

Why not end October with a cozy short story reimagining the origins of Hel, the Norse queen of the underworld? Available on my Ko-fi shop + all major retailers ✨ 💙📚 #BookSky

Celebrity necromancer oooh

💀✨🥀

A flower-seller inherits a countryside manor — overrun by 73 dogs, countless dangerous ghosts, and one irritating disgraced celebrity necromancer.

To keep her new home, she’ll need to fix up the house and get rid of the ghosts… before she becomes a haunting, too.

#GhostPit #A #G #F #Q

Collage of green tinted images top left to bottom right: four young women sitting in the grass and talking, a girl in a white dress running away from something barefoot in the grass, an eerie man peering through the woods with a flashlight, a man and a woman dancing under the night sky, a graveyard in the middle of a forest, stacks of chocolate with melted chocolate poured on top, foggy woods at night, a woman submerged under water reaching out, a woman in a dark lake with white flowers over her body, the shadows of two female friends standing back-to-back and making finger guns.

GRAVE OF FLOWERS (95k words)

Would you trust your childhood memories enough to stalk the woods in search of a killer you’ve labeled the angel-devil man?

Would you do it to save 19 women?

Blonde girl flips off mugshot, sign reads “central Avalon, Constance, 862”

Is Constance the hero we need?

NOPE.

But when spirits grow restless and the boundary between life and death is threatened, this foul-mouthed bruiser is the closest thing a team of freelance ghost hunters have to experience. 👻

Dear Diary, They say Dampton has no ghosts. Tell that to the courthouse clock, the river coughing up a tooth, and the mark, two curling lines, carved in my chair like a thank-you note. I came home to bury the past. Yet the past finds me.#agentsguide #GhostPit #A #T #MM

Okay I love this 😄

What We Do In the Shadows, for demonic hauntings. A naive demon navigates the redtape of the haunting process, laid out by the Afterlife, Underworld, and Karmatic Compliance Authority, who even Hell answers to, as folk creatures subvert his authority at every turn #Ghostpit #querying #Adult #horror
