Scale-Accurate Rift Bringer

Head canon that this is why he ever bothered to shift.
(That book would burn to a crisp in his fingers)

My process for drawing hair!! I recommend a digital brush that tapers off into sharp angles and flows smoothly with stabilization.

โœจBOOK RELEASE DATE ANNOUNCEMENTโœจ

Rift Wielder - the sequel to Rift Bringer, a sci-fi fantasy that will shift your expectations.

The stakes: dialed up
The monsters: dialed up
The slow burn: dialed up

Safe to say, I think this is the action-packed adventure youโ€™ve been looking for.

Indie author transparency:
2 weeks into the new year, one viral video unrelated to my books, and 1 news article about said video that even mentions my book by name. The results of that? (1/2) #booksky

Get in babe weโ€™re reading a book where the plot feels like if clark kent and lois lane worked for companies that hate each other and now theyโ€™re forced to work together and the whole thing is from loisโ€™s pov

Anyway, totally unrelated, my book Rift Bringer is available on the Zon and KU ๐Ÿฅฐ

Fun fact: writers don't 'finish' books, we just eventually stop editing before we spiral into madness.

Hey #booksky, what does your dream event look like?

Iโ€™m a sci-fi fantasy author with a penchant for glowing alien energies that give things power.

I have two books out. One of them is about an angry farm boy and the other one is about a begrudging telekinetic.

Theyโ€™re both on quests for vengeance.

Shenanigans ensue.

Love the trope where someone thinks they have found the right place to go and then the camera shows that the sign was partially hidden or broken off or unlit

I feel you!!! A spoiler is what got me to finally read a book though but it could be so hit or miss ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Oooh!! Thatโ€™s so interesting ๐Ÿ‘€ what sort of things do you look for in a book?

Reader question! Would you rather:

Have a book sit on your TBR for years until you get to it? Or

Have the plot spoiled enough that it piques your interest enough to read the entire series ASAP?

Amazon might deliver 'convenience', but it canโ€™t replicate the magic of stepping into a quiet bookstore on a rainy day, where the scent of old pages mingles with fresh coffee and every shelf holds the promise of a new adventure waiting to be discovered.

Let's look at how we can cut wordcount in line edits:

While reading an editorsblog.net article, I found a comment from 2015 asking whether this phrasing was correct:

โ€œOK.โ€ She continued to stand next to Jake, watching him hunt-n-peck his way through the invoice. โ€œDaddy?โ€ Robyn said. (1/10)
