I've been busy finalizing designs for the Once Upon a #Gothic Kickstarter, which features retellings of #Dracula, #Frankenstein, Northanger Abbey & Phantom of the Opera. Now that the books are off to the printer (yay!), it's time for an early book giveaway. More info: tinyurl.com/OUAGsweepstakes

If you're attending the 2025 Historical Novel Society conference in Las Vegas later this week, here's what I'll be up to. Hope to see you there! (Not going to the conference but live in Vegas? The book signing will be open to the public. Hope to see you there too!)

And many thanks to all who have already supported my Goddess Books Kickstarter! Authors can't do it without you—I am so grateful. <3

About the first stretch goal: For Valentine’s Day, we're offering a digital print of Venus, the Roman goddess of love, who first appeared as an illustration in THE BOOK OF GODDESSES. She’ll join the other exclusive premiums all backers will receive. To learn more: tinyurl.com/goddesskickstarter

So that's the latest here! Finally, if you'd like to be alerted when the Goddess Books Kickstarter goes live, link in bio. Alternately, you can sign up for my newsletter on my author site—and thanks for reading this missive! ❤️

I've long wanted to make these books available again, but was unable due to printing costs. But now, thanks to the magic of Kickstarter, they will be! As you can see from the samples, books will be ready to go on press as soon as the Kickstarter is finalized. 😀 www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...

Books will be available in softcover and hardcover editions individually and as a set. They all share the same trim size—I think they look so pretty together. Since these books won't be available in stores, their covers are without ISBNs too. View on Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...

With everything going on, it feels weird to be sharing book news, but as you can see in these photos, my latest Kickstarter is nearly ready to launch. I'm thrilled to bring back into print three of my goddess-themed picture book from early in my career. The deets: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...

I haven't been posting lately due to all the stuff going down in the world. But, given the way social media is these days, I'd love to stay connected. So, yes, I have a newsletter. If staying connected isn't enough enticement, subscribers receive perks such as book giveaways, offers and much more. ❤️

Obligatory #SmallBusinessSaturday post: I hope you'll check out my offerings at KrisWaldherr.com. This year I'm offering custom printed, exclusive book bundles at 25% off. They're perfect for writers and tarot enthusiasts. Books can be purchased direct as well from online retailers—it's all good!

So, that's a bit about me. My outside publishing passions include travel, Brooklyn life, and overthinking. ;-) I'm also the mom of a Theater Kid, as you can see. Happy to be over here in the Good Place—and look forward to chatting about all things literary, gothic, tarot, art, Victorian, and more. ❤️
