My vote for the Goodreads Choice Awards for Romantasy this year is A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping by Sangu Mandanna! It was difficult to choose between that and Emily Wilde's Compendium of Lost Tales by Heather Fawcett, I really loved both!

Hooray, A Honeymoon of Grave Consequence is out TODAY! You can snap it up in ebook or paperback now: books2read.com/honeymoonGrave

Gorgeous cover design by Artscandare. ❤️🦇❤️
The illustrated cover for A Honeymoon of Grave Consequence, by Stephanie Burgis, shows the silhouette of an elegant traveling carriage over the title and a bat with wings outstretched underneath, all of it framed by apples and with mirrors at the top and the bottom of the image. The headline above the cover reads: “Out Now,” and various key elements of the story are arranged in a text map around the cover: “They may be married, but she’s certainly not in love…is she? Uh-oh…” “What’s up with all the mirrors in this inn?” “He always makes certain she has the BEST tea” “She’ll take on any challenge to protect her vampire husband - even (gulp) socializing…” Four lovely paperback copies of A Honeymoon of Grave Consequence are fanned out across a dark wool blanket. The illustrated cover shows the silhouette of an elegant traveling carriage over the title and a bat with wings outstretched underneath, all of it framed by apples and with mirrors at the top and the bottom of the image.

Solidarity with our sister union in the States

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

For those who don't recall, the closest ship to the Titanic was The Californian. They did not respond to distress signals. The Carpathia did, from much further away. That captain was a hero.

This is so worth your time.
