I'm hoping that you'll enjoy the story of Mira re-establishing how she fits into the world, and that you'll laugh a few times along the way.

Check out the blurb for A Baker's Coven my upcoming satirical fantasy rom-com Exactly how many witches are in a Baker’s Coven? A year ago, Mira had a life in Whinnia, learning magic with her small coven. A year ago, she was forced from the country by a powerful man. Now, she has rebuilt her bakery in Senoonheim, a city curled up against the Unlit Hills like a flea-infested dog at the feet of its master, crawling with adventurers of all sorts. Despite her less-than-favourable encounters with the inhabitants of Senoonheim in her shop, she has decided to get out and meet some new people. It’s time to start a coven of her own. Mira is thrown together with thieves and soldiers, paladins and wizards, orcs, elves, and antfolk, and all of them muddle along under the watchful — but mostly uninterested — gaze of Lord Stanley Cornucervin, ruler of the surprisingly young city of Senoonheim. Will Mira’s coven come together despite the obstacles put in its way by stupid men? Will any of the more charismatic stupid men get up the nerve to ask Mira out? Will it all just be too much for her to handle? A Baker’s Coven is a satirical, fantasy rom-com set in the world of the Misplaced Kingdoms. If you are looking for humour, parody, human-level stakes, friendship, tabletop roleplay vibes, and bravery, you will find all it here in Aaron Dick’s newest novel. The cover of A Baker's Coven. A massive armored lion man is holding a struggling goblin towards a young woman with a witch's hat and a rolling pin. You can pre order at bit.ly/abakerscoven and eBooks at books2read.com/u/bzzA6E

#PretendPanel looking for ways writers can support each other, and I say we spread the word for each other. For example, telling people to pre-order my new #CosyFantasy novel "A Baker's Coven" at bit.ly/abakerscoven

I have to apologise to my editors. I do normally restrain my inner Bilbo, because the editors are usually right.

#IndieAuthor #WritingCommunity
A snip from a doc with 99+ comments. "Hundreds of editors suggestions that would make my manuscript sharper" Bilbo. "After all, why not? Why shouldn't I ignore them?

A followup to my video about books that everyone should read. Thinking about who we count as a person changes how we treat the people around us, and this book really asks that question.

Talking about setting daily word count goals. It's definitely got me through, but im still figuring out what number is the most consistent and not mentally draining.

Having a goal and a deadline can do wonders for motivation, but I've been worn down by a months long novel challenge instead this year!

#PretendPanel checking in on the different writing challenges today.

For the final promotion of #PretendPanel in October, I thought I'd get a little bit serious. Do you have any books with a connection to your past?

This Halloween why not check out a horror story set in the south of Te Ika a Māui?

The vibes of my horror novel "Rotten". A bunch of large brown bugs. Empty suburban streets at night. Humanoid staggering monsters in the mist. The image says: Find this novel at the links in my profile.

#PretendPanel asks about writing treats that we use to reward ourselves. Do you have a writer treat to get through the tough days?
