Fantasy romance lovers, let’s settle a debate! If you had to choose...
1️⃣ The grumpy but super intelligent hero who would burn the world for you?
2️⃣ The dangerous villain who actually might burn the world? (But, you know... for love.)
πŸ’¬ Tell me YOUR pick and drop a book rec with this trope! #booksky

Okay, so I just heard of an interesting genre mashup: women's fiction and horror. Ex. is The Haunting of Hill House. Thoughts? #genremashup #booksky

I just majorly went down the rabbit hole. Everything from real swords to pulling out the AD&D rules from 30(?) years ago and every companion book to it. Zero words were written and ultimately, it was decided it didn't matter since the MMC is a dragon shifter. Sigh.

I was supposed to write 500 words today… instead; I researched medieval sword names for three hours and stared at my outline for another two. 🀑✍️"

✨ Superhero RH = Paranormal? ✨

If a hero falls for a villain (or three πŸ˜‰) & their powers come from magic or gifts, does it count as paranormal romance? Where’s the line between superpowers & the supernatural? Let’s talk! ⬇️

I don't know if this is a real quote from him or not, but it's a good one, so I'll put it out here.

I'm not usually political, but I will put this out there as a history buff. When one side feels another side is taking a way of life from them, you get a civil war. But when the general populace cannot afford the basics of life, you get the fucking French Revolution. And that's a whole other thing.

I'm confused. Do they follow diversity or not?

I just donated to Wikipedia. Not the best source media, but I'll be damned if some butthurt billionaire is going to ruin this site too.
