Did you know I do book reviews that anyone can read on my Patreon? Did you know that sometimes, I don't like these books at all??

And did you know that even though these book reviews are free to access, if you join for even $3/month, you get more...and I get chemo!

Finally done with this piece, and so pleased (for now) with how it turned out! Supporters on Patreon and Ko-Fi get the full tarot card version~!
A large humanoid with pointed ears, horns, and dark-stained hands with purple nails holds a planet in their grip. Under one hand, the planet is cracking apart. A swirl of stars shines behind them.

Mastercard is bleeding, get in there. Make some calls. Get some cool family members in on it over thanksgiving

The lines are getting clogged from calls and Mastercard is feeling very pressured, they're looking into how to act in response. They're collecting information on callers to have a better understanding of who is calling in re the censorship issue

Don’t want to pay for a book? Ask your local library to get a copy.

Can’t do that? Many indie authors would probably send you a pdf if you were chill and asked them nicely.

I live paycheck to paycheck and I’ve never pirated a book. It’s pretty easy.

Next up on my TBR is Dragon Blind by Iman Christians. She's an indie author I found on TikTok, and after hearing her talk about this book, I am beyond excited to read it. It's on KU if you want to join my reading journey!

Hey! Are you interested in reading any of my books, but are having financial difficulties? That's okay! I've been there myself as chronically barely making it paycheck to paycheck, so I know what it's...

I do a lot of detailed lesson in the Self-Editing Series, but I also dropped a quick, easy checklist to read, print, and refer to as needed during edits! I prefer that people don't have to suffer through the revision process, and I think this helps!

Less than 25 days until BE NOT AFRAID releases on Dec 9th!

A deadbeat guitarist's bad night only gets worse when he's thrust into hell, seraphs demanding his sacrifice hot on his heels. His only hope is another angel, one with eyes he used to know.

Pre-order today!
books.earlronove.com/benotafraid
A trope map graphic for Be Not Afraid by S. Jean. In the center is the cover featuring Seth, an angel with pink wings, white hair, and bright eyes leaping across the cover in profile while pink smears the blue background and eyes stare at him. Along the top is a tagline and it reads: "a fast-paced blaze through Hell..." To the sides are the tropes. They are: coy angel wielding a lead pipe, deadbeat guitarist having a bad night, survival horror, m/m, silent hill x sorry we're closed, rotting seraphs hellbent on your death, finding a reason to live, and a pair of eyes you used to know. Along the bottom is a call to action for pre-orders and gives the url, books.earlronove.com/benotafraid.

What a great prompt!
Baltan gets results. He won't feel GREAT about breaking his word if it was a promise he made to someone he cares about, but he will if he feels he has to. As for rules? Fuck 'em.
Eureka still hasn't forgiven himself for breaking his oath, although it was out of his hands...

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Honor or results?

If it came down to it would your character choose to maintain their honor, or would they break their oath/promise/the rules to accomplish their goal?

How would they feel about it?
