This is one of my favourite fun fantasy novellas! Go grab it!

I do! If you sign up I'll even send you a free novella, it's about a group of adventurers that slays a dragon on the first page and then discovers the real challenge is getting the treasure back home. Gold is heavy! And there are dangerous bankers.

Table of Contents! I'm delighted to be here with Courtship & Kulning, in which a reluctant city bard is sent to the countryside to sing to dairy cows, and finds himself a handsome stranger to kiss while a beast stalks the hills. Fluffy gay fantasy romance. And I'm doing the cover art, as well!

GO HIT THE FOLLOW BUTTON. Indie Bites consistently puts together great work. AND I have a story in this, about a massive magical cat and a grumpy student.

That button doesn't force you to back but it *will* help them with algorithms !

The MOST important question, tbh
