Literally so close to the top 500 in FANTASY ROMANCE. Help a baby author out and take a chance for 0.99 or 0.77 if you're in the UK. 💜

Marketing is exhausting.
At this point, I want to throw my phone in a bush.
Pre0rder my book.
Please.
It's less than the price of a bad cuppa, & you'll enjoy it way more.

I don't read a lot of YA, but I may read this one just because of the title. The Boy with the Heart of Sea Glass is one of the loveliest titles I've ever seen.

Have you made an aesthetic that represents your books overall?
Some of the imagery in this works for multiple books, others is story specific. What do you think I write about based on this? Can you match the books?

Need a guest to interview (written, verbal, or video), someone to do a guest spot, or a new book to review? Please get in touch! I'd love to chat & I can give ebook review copies of The Seer of York. I also have a separate cyberpunk fantasy book coming out next year.
