(The Fealty of Monsters drops you right in with the geopolitics because it is also THAT kind of book)
PROLOGUE Summer 1917 The Żyła river separates the Kingdom of Waza and the Empire of Odon with its tall, jagged cliff-like riversides and rushing waters just as sharp. The few places of safe crossing answer to either crown directly, and one such port city is known as Daszek, renowned for its scholarship, funded and ruled by House Jackiewicz.

The text reads: Verse One 3AM TIDINGS Trent was beginning to think he shouldn’t have caused problems last week at Geri’s Bar. Although, it hadn’t been his fault; he stood by that now like he had then. The stool had come at him and he’d

PROLOGUE Soft light from the morning sun trickled through warped windows, leaving scattered rainbows dancing across the dusty cobblestones of the tavern. A young girl with skin the color of rust danced between the fractals of light, causing dust to kick up around her; the small particles caught fire against her black fingertips. An older woman with a sandy face and patches of bark scattered across her skin scooped the girl up and spun her around. She giggled with glee as the woman set her down and gave an exaggerated bow.

(Kye kicking this book off with her own death, trust her to bring the drama)
PROLOGUE Port of Barsar, 1788 In the end, her death came easily. For all the many years Kye had spent buried under the shifting tides of her ailment, she had long dreaded every bad day that could spell her last. But to her surprise, when she finally found her hands at the fraying end of the rope-it was remarkably easy to let go.

Skylark in the Fog // Imbued
A screenshot of the start of the first chapter of Skylark in the Fog by Helyna L. Clove Chapter 01: Wild Lark Chase The moment the first missile crashed into the Skylark, Captain Jeane Blake realized she had gravely underestimated the danger they'd gotten themselves into.

Hey, if you're reading this:

I'm proud of you. We may or may not know each other, but that doesn't matter. I'm proud of you because, despite everything, you're still you. You're still here. And you're still shining your light everywhere you tread.

I'll never be one of those insane people who create character art from a sphere, but I've learned a lot about process by blocking, animating, rendering, and producing our award-winning animated trailer. I love everyone I work with; we're just little gremlins telling stories. 💖 youtu.be/FKxKLBzYyz0
Art at beginning of COVID A bare-backed woman rests in a hospital bed onboard a space station. There is a cat resting behind her. Vs. Now! The same woman, now more fleshed out with what became signature a leather bomber jacket and scarf, superimposed over a background of dark sky and two fighters zooming overhead.

I've been thinking on this for a while, and instead of a holiday season sale, Bonedust Press will instead dedicate 10% of all direct sales to the San Diego Food Bank.

Times are tough and since I have to do the marketing song and dance anyway, I'd like to accomplish a little good with it.

Shop small for the holidays, support independent publishing, and do some good!

From now until Dec. 31, we will donate 10% of every single direct sale from our site to local food banks.

Treat yourself to our debut title, The Traitor & The Wretch, or gift it to a friend!
www.bonedustpress.com/shop
A trope map image for The Traitor & The Wretch (cover art by Amy Phillips) written by Jasmine Walls and illustrated by Rowan MacColl. It reads: Minor villains dungeon-crawling their way to a happy ending. On the run from an entire kingdom that wants them both dead. This guy (the wretch) helped raise a Chaos God to bring about the end times (he's not coping well) This guy (the traitor) tried to kill the Prophesized Hero (it ended badly) Enemies-to-Lovers Mutated cave creatures! Undead horrors! Endless pitch black caves! Somehow, it's a romance!

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

I Want You to Understand Chicago Politics Chicago 2025-11-08 I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. “We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,” Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st. Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Sho…

Got hit hard with the “get real obsessed with two lesbians” hammer
Art at beginning of COVID Early early art of Kye from 2020, before she was really sorted out. The art is simple color blocking, the bust of a woman looking straight forward, short white hair, white eyes, tanned scarred skin, a maroon cloak with an eye pattern, holding up one hand with a glow to it. A thin rapier just floating on the page below her. Idk why that’s there. Vs. now! Artwork of Kye and Jude from the book Name Her Holy. Jude is sitting with Kye leaning into her, hand cupping Jude’s jaw to bring her in for a kiss. Kye’s other hand is draped over Jude’s shoulder, holding a golden sword limply against her back. Kye has short dark wavy hair, tan skin covered with scars that have an eery blue smoke ghosting off from them into a billowing glow behind her. She is wearing a dark, high collared sleeveless dress. Her eyes are white as she looks down at Jude. Jude is looking at her with want, on hand on Kye’s hip. Jude is white and has freckles, long auburn hair in a very messy braid with a blue ribbon woven through it and golden flowers in a crown. She is in simple brown clothes, but wearing a gilded pauldron and armor down the rest of her arm and hand, decorated in flowers. Behind her is a twilight setting sun over a meadow field. A night sky with stars looms over Kye’s shoulders. A vine covered frame loops around the corners of the artwork.
