Thanks, Gabino ❤️
💫THE HAUNTING OF WOUNDED BIRDS went live on the feast of Martinmas, old Halloween — a coming-of-age folk horror steeped in secrets & tragedy.
Dark forests. Black birds. Old rituals. Haunted boys.
Some stories will not rest.

Ouch. I hear you. Wanting to make your book marketing perfect is a worthy cause though. Your book cover for Reflections certainly slays! 😊

You're welcome! 😊

I'm so sorry, Gabino. Anger and doing stuff "in spite of" are strong motivators. I know you'll channel it into your work which I look forward to reading.

There has been an increase in bad personal news in the horror community of late. We keep rolling, writing and supporting each other 🖤 Take care.
