A late-in-the-day #SFINCS review from me today... This time it's A Light for the Dead to Follow by Rebecca Crunden, a grim-cozy story with a sweet romance that pays homage to Tolkien. www.angelaboord.com/post/sfincs3... 💙🪐📚 #BookSky #indiebooks #SFF

Good morning and a new #SFINCS review 😁 Phengaris by Anna Orridge is a creepy queer ecohorror with some excellent imagery and characterization. www.angelaboord.com/post/sfincs-... 💙🪐📚 #BookSky #indiebooks #Horror #SFF

Started the year not thinking I would do any book fairs because I never have before, and let's be real, it is kind of intimidating. Ended the year doing 3 events, having great interactions and selling well over 200 book in person. Even got the top of my head on the news. Guess it's a thing I do now.

Looking for somebody to do a content pull on your writing? May I suggest @quillandcrib.bsky.social What is a content pull? You know the impact quotes/scenes you see on social media? Sometimes it helps to have objective eyes go through and pull out the lines that excite readers. #writingcommunity

Happy Monday! We're starting off today with a review of The Penitent by Robyn Abbot as written by Ryan Kirk: www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-book-...

We're starting the day with a recommendation post! We've got @philspeculates.bsky.social Top Ten Indie Books: www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-recom... Have you read any of these and agree with Phil's reccs? #AMoRaR

Woot woot. Waking up early on a beautiful day to get some writing in before the kids storm the room. Im really enjoying this WIP. I have a feeling she's going to be a big one.

Today's Google search was 'Do vampires poop?' Idk why. But it happened.

It's a Month of Rain & Reads, and we do take a little time for reading ourselves, too. Today, we have a review of The Drowned Heir, by @authorizedmusings.bsky.social, which is also a contender in the SFINCS novella competition. www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-book-... #BookSky #AMoRaR #SFINCS

So many of us started writing because we loved to read, but it's so easy to put reading aside when writing becomes a business. I learned the hard way that I needed to read more for my mental health! Thanks to @blog.readindiefantasy.com for hosting A Month of Rain and Reads! #AMoRaR #writesky 💙🪐📚

Today is for interviews!

Learn a little more about me, Landbringer, and Blackburn Station!

Today we're hosting a recommendation of Hidden Indie SFF Gems, including underrated fantasy and sci-fi, written by @nicksnapeauthor.bsky.social www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-recom...

Just walking around

Sometimes I post about things that arent mushrooms I found. This time its a post about me recklessly reading in a kayak on a windy day.

I think I need to watch Firefly again.

Just some turkey tail

I was about to make some book marketing content then remembered I still dont have any copies of my books after selling out at the Book Fair for Grown-Ups. There are worse problems to have I suppose

Looking for a dystopian novella to read this hot soupy summer? Like supporting indie authors? Want to read about not the hero of the story? 💙📚
