I never know how to start these 😆

Anyway, cover and title reveal anyone?

Book 2 of Anhelos Saga is called Anhelos Bound!

Thanks to @tisishanice.bsky.social for all your hard work in making my cover into a reality 😊😊

No release date yet, but soon, hopefully.
Quinn knows his limits, but that doesn't stop him from going too far anyway, especially when it comes to using his magic.

He will often overextend himself while using summons because the situation calls for it.

It's a miracle he hasn't killed himself yet 😆
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

How is your character at knowing their limits?

Do they understand their flaws and work around them? Push through to their detriment? Completely overestimate themselves?

Do they improve or get worse in time?

Talia got mugged by… a guy who can’t even fill out a pair of skinny-jeans?

(Yes, I wrote this back when skinny-jeans were everywhere.)

Today's snippet is from a cut description from Ungovernables book 2:

The ripples of water designed a pattern of rocks and weeds. The soft white sand, now slicked by the ocean, entombed them, painting a figurative arrow in the direction Rylen went.

In Ermina reproductive rights differ by species. Some races, like nymphs, have very lax laws placed on them as they are harmless and for the most part help humans.

Other ones, like sirens, are not supposed to exceed more then two children per-

She chuckled, “We are trying to cure Ungovernables, however, in our attempts to cure them, some have become twisted and changed. The path to a cure is not a straight line. As such, we
occasionally enhance their abilities instead of remove them.”

Rylen, rightfully, is extremely proud of his band. He worked hard to get to where he is and he has no doubts that he deserves the fame he, and his bandmates, have garnered for themselves.

In PTW, the reader is introduced to a disease known as Argosian Syndrome.

It is a dementia-like disease where patients slowly forget everything they once knew and it has no known cure.

Jamie's mother suffers from it.

I haven't written much smut, so yes I read different kinds compared to what I write.

I do want to introduce some things, but generally I keep things low-spice
Last establishing question, #Smutcember:

Do you read different kinds of smut than you write, or is that Venn diagram a circle?

I mean, I don't *actively* seek certain types of smut, but if I like what I'm reading, I'm not gonna turn it down just because there's an orc involved 🙈 (also vampires are a yes please but). I only write humans, though, and I've only done one M/F and one M/M couple so far

"I hate it when the numb creeps in. The insidious way it consumes you, like a parasite, slowly taking parts of you until there is nothing left.

A broken, hollow shell.

And that's what I am now. A shell.

Do me a favour. Put me out of my misery."

Side note: Rylen’s relationship with his grandfather is another one of my favourite relationships to write in this book.

They both need to compromise, and while his grandfather had, he doesn't fully understand what Rylen ahs been through.

Ermina is slightly more technologically advanced then our current level of technology.

The biggest tech advancements are holo technology and medical cures for things like cancer and dementia.

Quinn would be considered a heretic to followers of the All-Father.

In some ways, he is. He doesn't believe in any of the gods available and chooses to believe in his own strength.

I didn't have anything with dominant, so I picked a moment that has Jamie explain (kind of) the dominance of Ungovernables over humans.

Fitting in my business satire the only time a percentage is used is to quantify human life.

Cyrus and Virgil discuss how his running away didn't stop the company but just made them worse.

In Ermina, the deities created the races but each race then evolved on their own, under the careful watch of the deities, Thanatoi, Hosts, and Daimons.

In Ungovernables book 2 I am planning to create a holiday known as Familiaris.

Essentially, it's a festival celebrating unity and family. Most humans celebrate this with offerings to the deities and to the Goddess. The non-human races celebrate-
