I had originally planned for my second book to be around 50/60k in words as it's a collection of short stories. However, after only 3 and with around 10/12 to go, im already at 10k. Safe to say I am not good at maths.

When it's 30 degrees and too hot for black, so, you have to settle with dark blue instead.

If i am correct (please let me know if not to anyone who else sees this), I would use semicolons. Just because it's used to separate the list without bringing it to an end like a fullstop. If that makes sense?

Good afternoon everyone, I have removed the kpd file and changed it to an encryption free file on Etsy. For 99p you can buy and share freely and view on any device. (Or if you hate it, send it to your enemies, either works)

Illustration of Elian, the young heroine of my tale. Son of a blacksmith and a mother long since passed. He spent his days traipsing the northern woods searching for adventure, but his curiosity eventually uncovered something far worse.

I keep promising myself I'll never animate my books. However, humble bundle only went and slapped some rigging software on there, and now i may have too ๐Ÿ˜… so for now, take a test background piece I did before work

Absolutely, that way, you can get direct feedback and also see how your players interact with your work, I personally would recommend it.

Do you play 'theatre of the mind' style, or do you use battle maps as I am very curious?

So natural when it comes to marketing, it's all very serious and whatnot. However, I am not a serious person. Below is the link to my tiktok where I'll be posting silly, badly animated shorts of my stories, such as this.

Happy reading! โ˜บ๏ธ

Any book reviewers want a free, whimsically dark fantasy tale that features a world filled with angels and demons. A group of heroes led by a child heroine and, of course, plot twists in an ode to classic adventure.
(A non-romance, adventure focused tale)

This morning, I received an email telling me there will be a rise in print costs. It is not ideal when you have maps and illustrated drop caps, so instead, I've dropped the price of my book to the lowest it will let me. I'd rather it be affordable and gain nothing than it be costly and not sell.

I would say finding viable marketing (The main reason for this post also) You can pay for advertising, but it doesn't necessarily mean people will click/buy, so making multiple socials and posts like this is cost efficient for starting out. But I also didn't write the book to be well known either ๐Ÿ˜Š.

Forever being spammed by marketing/promotional accounts that are gone within a day or two. So instead, if anyone is interested in reading my work, drop me a DM, and I'll send you a FREE, shareable pdf for you to review after reading.

The small woodland town of Redwood. This is where Elians tale begins as he wanders the darkened hillside only to uncover the heinous deeds that throw him into a world of might, magic and monsters.

It took some time, but so did my freelancing, and now I'm rated a 5* story artist. However, today, my whimsically dark tale received its first rating.

Can honestly say I'm relieved to see anything come of it, considering I poured 12 years into this world.

Lore post: Before Arcarda was created, there were these two. Uria, the angel father, and Lassia, the mother of demons. In the beginning, they got along despite their differences, but that was until Lassia learnt she had the power to create monsters.
