For as long as I can remember, October-ish to December has been the absolute slowest time of year in the publishing industry, especially Dec.
I hope that never changes. It's good to collectively have time to reset, breathe, and come up with our next master plan for literary world domination. 📖 ✍️

My mini pitch + moodboard for my NA Dark Paranormal Romance. 🥰🖤
A vamp loses his eternal love, has a mental break and dabbles in necromancy to bring her back, only she returns as a human newborn, Emma, unaware he's been lurking for 18 years until he tries to kidnap her.
Death & obsession collide.💀🥀

Veilstrider is so freaking important to me because it's my own self reclamation with a dash of magic. It's the me that found her voice, unapologetically set boundaries, and refused to let the world harden her heart even through immense pain. So, yea, I'll shred it, cut darlings, and put in (1/2)

One of my favorite things next to writing and graphic design is art. I bought this today. This artist is incredible. Check him out! He does commission work too! He's doing some work for me for Veilstrider 🥰

He’d sacrifice himself to protect her. Her strength is a symphony for his pain mage BF. They’re hers to command as blood spilled out of greed forces her to choose: wield the power a regime is murderous for or trust in morally grey allies to survive being hunted.

She disappeared to protect him from her father, the Veilstrider King with a ruthless fascist regime at his command.
But the regime has gone rogue, hunting them for their ancient power. It's his turn to save her now and he'll burn it all down to keep her alive. His. 🔥🖤

Traveling across Solaraeth for answers to getting The Concord off my back. Must have good stamina.
Might try to save the world, too, but Idk. Kind of just want to focus on my own shit. Like dominating fight pits and beautiful women. Maybe get another tattoo.

Another personalized rejection. Loved the writing but didn't click with the premise. So this was totally just about personal taste I think. Totally understandable too! The personal note about her being impressed with my writing made me happy giggle lol. Love it 🥰🫶

Aside from this amazing editor, I have a beta who legit might fight someone over this book 😂
It warms my heart over ten fold! 🥰 Veilstrider is starting to do what it was meant to at creation.

While my heart is a bit broken, I just got the kindest rejection I have ever received in 16 years.
It was solely based on the agent being a more market focused agent rather than editorial focused. While my writerly heart is hurting a bit, I'm still so thankful. I made a great connection with...

All Viv wants is to live a quiet life topping underground fight pits and beautiful women 👩❤️💋👩
But a fascist regime rips apart her home and murders her mentor in their hunt for her magic.
They won't let her have peace? Fine. She'll wield the power they'd burn the world to erase.🗡🔮

Question for the community.
My kiddo put together this cool story he wants to turn into a picture book. Is there a thing where I can hire someone to do that for him?

What would your book sound like?
A low hum of magical life threads underfoot. Distant thud of a heartbeat syncing with the pulse in the soil. Crackling fire and whispered names carried on gentle winds. Far off chants mixed with the clash of steel meeting steel. Subtle flapping of wings. 🕊🔥
