Art Peek: Skrik

Eyes in the Shadows. When I described Skrik to illustrator Mart Lett, I compared his form as something between a feline & a small gargoyle, a shadow with wisping edges that are in constant motion.

He’s small enough to perch on Enzo’s shoulder. In fact, he’ll often drape himself along his shoulders and peek out from under his hair. Shy thing.

More behind-the-scenes details about Folk-Spelled are sure to turn up here. But if you want LOTS more posts like this, they’re the sort of thing I share over on Patreon. Consider joining, even as a free member. I’d be grateful.

In Publisher’s Weekly

Getting the Word Out. I’m doing what I can to give the Immortal Holmes series the best possible start. After receiving an Editor’s Pick from BookLife Reviews and its subsequent appearance in Publisher’s Weekly, I reserved ad space. This will be appearing soon and I hope it catches the eye & the interest of new readers.

How would YOU blurb Folk-Spelled? ::twinkle::

Thank you, as always, for supporting my storytelling. When you read, rate, review, and recommend my books, you’re making a world of difference for an indie author like me.

Table Games

Always Hexagons, Please. Favorite things tend to work their way into my books, which is why Ramage keeps games on the tables at The Speckled Hen. Naturally, I needed to make them fit in with Newcomb’s unique culture, so chess became a six-sided melee, and decks of cards gained a couple of extra suits. During my research, I found (and purchased) this simple puzzle game, which is just the sort of thing you might play with friends while waiting for dinner to arrive at your table.

Details, details. I do love details!
