Salmonweird: A Cornish Crime Comedy Caper

A sunset beach scene, a quirky cover, autumn vibes, and a twist you won't see coming (this last bit isn't true, it's a genre marketing requirement)

Sunset background over the sea. Book cover shows a carving knife stabbing through a scone while jam and cream spills onto a table

When the young monk first saw a
strange scaly creature with fins but
no legs, he asked one of the elder
monks what it was. The elder monk
told him it was a salmon.

We have no reason to doubt the
elder monk’s piscine identification
skills. But to this young man who
had never seen a fish, anything
vaguely fish shaped was
henceforth “salmon.”

Scam alert: there's an IngramSpark impersonator at ingramsparkbookpublishers dot com. Part of a wave of publishing/ghostwriting scams from Pakistan that hijack authors looking to self-publish--they often "borrow" well-known publisher names but this one also "borrows" the real IngramSpark's logo

Screenshot of IngramSpark impersonator's contact form, with chat window where scammer sales rep "Travis Clark" claims that "We are Ingram Spark's hands-on services department. You will be able to find our information here: https://www.ingramsparkbookpublishers.com/

If you're celebrating International Lesbian Day, can I recommend doing so with Noelle Northwood, the fat dapper butch dreamboat from Season of Love?
Bonus! The book starts right after Sukkot. It's seasonal!

I have so many more ideas for stories set in the world and characters, but it all depends on if the series finds more of its people or not. I've been open I've found the mixed reception of book one painful for what is such a personal and exposing series. But if you build it, I will come. <3

Teri Hinds @terilynhinds.bsky.social · 2d

I finished Emberclaw, the end of @lrlam.bsky.social 's Dragon Scales duology and.. I'm grieving because I wanted it to be longer. I wanted more time with the characters. It's a clever, creative, loving, deeply human (even if one of the main characters isn't) romantic adventure heist. #booksky

The MAGA “tough people” don’t want you to know that Bob Ross was an actual tough person who didn’t talk about it. He was a retired Air Force noncom who got tired of yelling at people and became the soft spoken, easy going painter we all know and love.

I don't normally do this, but I've been burning the candle at both ends.

Other half had a major op earlier this year and now I'm in hospital for an investigation.

Regardless of what's wrong, I need rest, but I've had little work this year.

I'd appreciate if anyone is able to help out.
