It doesn’t seem bad…a little coughing. Maybe a cold, maybe allergies. But any kind of sick really lays her low.

Mine don’t get much traction either. I’d love some ice cream and wish I could binge LOTR with you. I’m currently watching Big Bang Theory because my daughter is sick and it’s her choice. Yes, I did sing her soft Kitty! πŸ€£πŸ€’

Day 6 ~ #FantasyIndiesJanuary

Josephine’s sense of humor is much like Jack's: a mix of snarky, silly, and oftentimes absurd. She intentionally riles up her enemies by calling them funny names like Kraken’s arse, bilge scum, doltish jobbernowl, or a barnacle’s sweaty armpit! 🀣

Day 5 ~ #FantasyIndiesJanuary

Superstitions:

Josephine’s crew can be quite superstitious. Ghosts, cats, and even having Jo (a woman…*GASP*) on board the ship can make them uneasy. Book 2 mentions it a few times.πŸ‘‡

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?

Unless Penny is with these guys…I’m in trouble!

Day 3 ~ #FantasyIndiesJanuary

Josephine has been far too poor to entertain such frivolity, but if she had the time, her hobbies would include sailing, fencing, shooting, and making up interesting insults to throw at her enemies.

These two are tied for my favorites right now. I love the adventure, the slow burn romance, the badass female MC, the stakes…they have everything I long for in a book.

I’m Cassie πŸ‘‹ and I write YA SFF mostly but might be breaking into YA or adult contemporary fiction (w/ a dash of romance, of course) this year if I can finally release my historical fantasy by summer.
