It's a month until Christmas and I have a present for the horror fans!
Amissis Liberis is a Victorian-era horror novella revolving around two families, and a year that will change everything. Fantastic for fans of Gothic horror and Mike Flanagan.
You know where to look for it.
So excited to see everyone!

THE GOOD SHIP VERDEN is much more Misery x Midsommar though.

11.11.2025 21:07 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0One thing I didn't expect from being a chronically ill horror author would be how different symptoms inspire me. Like, for instance, I didn't expect to be so ultimately confident that I could fight most people and win.

Sarah New Author of Catfood and Hypochondria
L.N. Holmes’ The Floating Castle is an epic tale of fantasy that weaves the plot lines of multiple strong female protagonists with a gripping arc. I COULD NOT stop thinking about this book. All I wanted to do was to continue reading about these characters, wondering how their stories would intersect. Reading the book felt like hurtling towards this terrifying ending, and I couldn’t tell which way it was going to go. I am dying to read the next part of this story!
You all are determined to make me cry!
Thank you so much for loving this book as much as you do, @aldbera.bsky.social.
get a cup of tea and a snack and listen to me ramble about all the books I want to write for nine minutes
