There'll be ghosts later in the series during an important battle :)

#FantasyIndiesDecember 2: holidays in WIP

"Son of Embers" doesn't have any holidays. I'd like to do a short story of Brae & Malicai celebrating the Festival of Summer's Night at some point, or maybe whatever the Christmas-equivalent holiday is.

#FantasyIndiesNovember 27: what are you thankful for?

I'm truly thankful for my husband (and that I finally get to call him my husband!!). He's my pillar of strength when I'm spiraling about life. I'm thankful that our families are doing well. And I'm thankful for my cats.

#NovemberWorldbuilders 26: any lies/conspiracy theories about historical events?

I'm sure there's a few conspiracy theories floating around Tavarria about Queen Zulekia's true involvement in Seithenin's demonic invasion.

November #QueerPrompts 26: GIF/Audio or description of your MC's expression at a family gathering

Braelyn would be ecstatic to be at a family gathering. Knowing her family is something she desperately wants, so it would be a dream for her.

#FantasyIndiesNovember 26: how you come up with book titles

I struggle with book titles 😆 I think the last couple of titles I came up with, I used a list of words that I saw... somewhere. Tossed them around until I landed on something I liked.

Salmon sushi bake (with crumbled seaweed on top since I forgot to get green onions) and pecan pie. Today was just hubs and I since he's recovering from his PRP injection, so I didn't want to cook a bajillion things that he wouldn't be able to eat 1-handed. I at least wanted pie for dessert, lol.
