In an icy Upstate New York winter, a young black man hunts for medicine. But the 1840s were a scary time for black people in the north or south. They moved here to escape racism. What he faces is another ancient evil.

The Infinity Loop of Writing So the protagonist walks straight into a trap, gets held hostage and it tied to a chair. . . Wait, does the antagonist use duct tape, zip ties or good ol’ fashioned rope? Where do they get the rope from? What is it even made of? Is it, like, braided? <googles ‘how do you make rope’> <spends an hour watching Youtube tutorials> Okay, new story. A plucky young 18th century rope-maker is scraping out a living, unaware of the threat to their livelihood from the looming Industrial Revolution. . . <googles ‘Industrial Revolution’> <orders six books on the rise of steam power> Okay, so now it’s a steampunk story. A plucky young rope-maker is kidnapped for their expertise and ironically tied to a chair with their own rope by a fat cat factory owner who wants to know why industrial-produced rope is inferior to the homespun stuff. . . And on and on until the end of recorded time. . .

Give someone a book, they’ll read for a day. Teach someone to write a book . . . and they’ll spend a life-time mired in paralysing self doubt.

Every great series starts with a single step into the unknown.

The Hollow Man is that first step—history, tension, and a spy who learns fast that nothing stays simple for long.

I grew up with a mother who loved to swim. As a young girl she’d swum competitively, and like most good Swedish swimmers, she had a collection of swim badges. Some of those badges merely required swim...

I have really enjoyed the Embervein series by @cozyote.bsky.social. Just finished the Ember Bones duology, and loved the characters, esp. MC Grim who’s shy interiority and strange magic is totally endearing. I find that I love ‘cozy village monster’ fantasy genre, with a gothic vibe imho.
