It's two years since my debut novel, Dark Woods, Deep Water was published, and one year since my novella, Ghost Apparent came out.
When you're an indie author, you don't stop to celebrate, because you're always chasing new goals. But I think these books deserve to be celebrated.

It’s set in the 13th century Low Countries. A baker who witnesses miraculous visions meets a boy only she can see. Her closest friend is found murdered the same day the rood cross bleeds at Mass. The miracle draws her into a web of pilgrims and politics as the boy puts her on the killer’s trail. 🐝

Death strikes in the experimental independent film DANSE MACABRE (1922), synchronized to Camille Saint-Saëns' music with special player piano roles. Dudley Murphy had ambitious plans for more "Visual Symphonies" and announced an upcoming lineup but the series ended abruptly.

The Japanese artist Shinji Nakaba is a master of creating skulls and other anatomical forms from pearls no larger than the end of a finger tip. Nakaba considers these works “wearable sculptures,” as each pearl takes the form of a ring, necklace, or pin.

I barely go here these days but the whole thing is so deliciously meta I am tickled pink. 2016 me would’ve lost it. Utterly insufferable, completely unstoppable, megaphone ON. Genuinely the most supportive fandom I had the pleasure of being in, with the most creative, incredible people. STAY WINNING

I would have been too powerful if god had given me graphic design skills in addition to the ability to fix fictional men so I made this to ask you to read my next book.

i sincerely hope that nobody conflates my own views with my protagonists' 🥴 just cuz they're a protag doesn't mean i agree with even a lick of what they say or do. i just think they're funny li'l guys
Do any of your protagonists hold views that make sense for their character but don't align with you as the author? What are they? #WritingPrompt
