Repinning to my buy links to my profile, which is always a good time to remind y'all to buy my adult epic fantasy duology, Wings Rising, from @meerkatpress.bsky.social ! Rampaging mystical creatures! Ghostly Wizards! Defeat the patriarchy! Invisible plague!

Becca Gomez Farrell @becca.gomezfarrell.com · Feb 10

Since I am actually writing again, I may actually post about writing again, which means this is a great time to remind y'all that my Wings Rising epic fantasy duology is available from Meerkat Press! Here's a Linktree to find your preferred vendor: linktr.ee/rebeccagomez...

Both my book covers in a promo graphic, Wings Unseen and Wings Unfurled. A small mosquito-like creature is also in the top L corner, and a hand holding a flame in the bottom R corner.

This isn’t just a book; it’s a relic. Imagine holding the novel that redefined a genre, filled with Kathe Koja’s personal notes, insights, and behind-the-scenes thoughts scrawled in the margins.

You know that moment when what you thought was going on suddenly turns out to be much, much more? That's Ari's moment. And this is Ari's delirious card, created by @meerkatpress.bsky.social and yours when you preorder #DarkMatter meerkatpress.shop/products/dar...

A collage image of a shimmering disco ball, a powerful lion, a majestic sun, and in the center a man in a hipshot pose, smoking an impeccable cigar, wearing shades and looking up. Above is ARI and below is "want to dance"
