Random question, would anyone in the BlueSky-verse be interested in a giveaway of a signed paperback copy of Straw Girl (and a potential second place prize of a couple bookmarks or something)?

Enough like/share/repost and I'll do one.

So, I’ve done a handful of podcast interviews. Much to my surprise, I’ve enjoyed them and I’m looking to do more.

Have a book podcast or booktube channel? Send me an email or DM, because I’d love to come on for a chat.

Another great review!

This one touches on something important: The Monsters Among Us wraps up the story despite being part of a series.

Therefore it can be enjoyed by both those who enjoy standalone stories as well as series! It can be enjoyed as either or.

Seriously, thank you to everyone who has left a review for THE MONSTERS AMONG US.

It's been a bad week, query-wise, with multiple agents rejecting my other books all at once, so not only are these reviews validating, they are also making me feel powerful. 😈

Have you heard the news? 🤔

THE MONSTERS AMONG US is phantasmagoric! With "Biblical-sized storytelling ambitions," this dark fantasy novel is "as shocking as it is thought-provoking."

This might be my new favorite coffee mug, although I really missed a golden tagline opportunity: “Some mugs weren’t meant to be found.”

Oh well, I’ll do better on the next mug. 😂😂
