It's Friday the 13th (again!), so let's share some horror stories. What's the most terrifying bookish thing that happened to you? Friend wrote over a book? Spilled coffee on your special edition? Got attack by a werewolf while reading? Share your stories!

My desk is black. My phone is black. My headphones are black. My mouse is black. My keyboard is black. My cables are black. My graphic tablet & pen are black. My regular pen is black. No wonder I can't find anything on my desk... It's clearly not the clutter's fault! 😅

Saint Patrick's Day is coming, and if you can't make it to Ireland, my urban fantasy series might be what will take you there! Start with book 1 and binge through the series: bf.authorjm.com/Humanborn (And don't forget you can get 45% off all e-books in my direct store with 45FOR45 code!)

Today is one of those days when I'm trying to be productive and so some work, while something inside me just wants to scream and scream...

This was one of my quick creations. I needed a mental break from creating art for Sanguine Scenario, so I put something together to test the new environment. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. What do you think?

Today is International Day of Awesomeness, so it's a perfect time to say: you are awesome. Whether you're a fan, casual reader, fellow author, or just passing by, you are awesome! Thank you for being here! But I want to know… what do you think is the most awesome thing about you?

Just a reminder, to celebrate my 45th birthday, I'm offering 45% off all my e-books this month. The catch? You have to get them from my store. The benefit? You own the file, and the discount stacks with bundle discount. And if you don't want books, eat a piece of cake for me! 😉 authorjm.gumroad.com/

I'm happy to say today is the day for the book cover reveal of DEVOURING FORTUNE! @jeleynai.bsky.social did an incredible job on the illustration, I'm in awe. For fans of Tanith Lee and A.K. Larkwood, about bargains gone wrong. Follow the prelaunch page! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ole...

The Sins of Steel and Shadow is an #SPFBO semifinalist 🙌🏻 Well chuffed, and hats off to anyone who entered this year’s contest. There are some incredible looking titles on that list and my TBR is getting longer every day! stevepannett.com/the-sins-of-...

Support women's rights AND wrongs 💙😌 Pandora, Created for Ill

Happy International Women's Day! If you'd rather than giving flowers get books for yourself and support female authors, grab this eclectic bundle: itch.io/b/3556/inter... Only few days left before it's gone!

It's 10:30 am now. I've been up since 5 am. And I just spent the whole morning redoing the line art of the map for Sanguine Scenario, because I didn't like the original. My arm is about to fall off, but it was well worth the effort. And unless I find something else to fix, the map is done!

If you're looking for a new fantasy or sci-fi read for the weekend but don't know where to start, check out this selection: bf.authorjm.com/fantasyandsc...

The main character of Pacts Arcane and Otherwise, Kamira, isn't the most trusting person, with the exception of her best friend, Veelk. Demons? They get the triple of her usual healthy distrust toward everyone, and that still feels too little. After all, you can't trust even your own pact demon.

It might be a small milestone, but I'm a small author: ;) By the Pact has now reached 100 ratings on Goodreads! It's a good moment to thank all my readers who not only read my books but also take time to rate and/or review them on all platforms and stores. THANK YOU!

It's true that I rarely stray from doing fantasy and sci-fi art, but every now and then, I like to try something else. With "Trouble Brewing" I was hoping to get the feel of an old movie or a photograph. Did I succeed?

For Women's Day, my friend Niranjan @ormakal.bsky.social coordinated a book bundle with 32 women authors all featuring women protagonists. Wish Givers, my tattoo fantasy set in the islands, is part of the group. Support 32 writers, receive 32 books, pay $32. Link itch.io/b/3556/inter...

March is when we celebrate womanhood. These bundle of books encapsulate the perfect way to celebrate! 📚💙💕🌈📚🖤♿📚🌈📚🪐📚🌈♠️ #booksky #readersky #readers #books #booksonbluesky #queersky #readingcommunity #writingcommunity

The International Women's Day is coming soon, and if you would like to celebrate it with books, why not grab this eclectic collection of books by female authors and with female protagonists? For a nice price too! itch.io/b/3556/inter...

Time flies! It's been another 2 months already, so here's the compilation of 3d art I posted in that time. Which one is your favorite? authorjm.com/archives/33017

Loved the ones in the top row. The ones in the bottom row are high up on my list for this year. I highly recommend Joanna's books if you love intricate plots, likeable characters, and fast-paced action.

This month, I'm turning 45, and to celebrate, I'm offering 45% off all my e-books. The catch? You have to get it from my store. The benefit? You own the file, and the discount stacks with bundle discount. And if you don't want books, eat a piece of cake for me! 😉 Shop here: authorjm.gumroad.com/

It seems that you might survive a magical cataclysm, survive a war with otherworldly species, and even survive Irish weather, but small talk is till a problem, especially when you're supposed to have a pleasant conversation with your former enemy…

I rarely get to share achievements like this one, so here it is: By the Pact climbed to the top 1-2 of its respective genres' top free charts! And to 50 in the whole Kindle Store! It makes an author's day! (My books are available elsewhere too. They just don't do rankings.)

For the past weeks, I've been busy working on art for Sanguine Scenario which I can't share just yet (but I promise the wait will be worth it!), so I didn't do much other 3d art. I still managed to sneak in a quick piece, "Betrayed," made just to test new and old products.

Anybody fancy a new book for the weekend? ... Wait, what do you mean, "It's only Tuesday"? That's some bull shit. Anybody fancy a new book to help make the week bearable? I've got a few to choose from: books2read.com/alank... 💙📚🪐 #SFF

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1804

Timeless humour! A 2,000 year-old Roman souvenir pen with a joke inscription roughly equivalent to: “I went to Rome and all I got you was this cheap pen!" 😂 Dated circa 70 AD, this iron stylus pen was recovered in London during excavations by MOLA. 📷 Juan Jose Fuldain/MOLA #Archaeology

One of the 7464039 reasons for which I love my husband. Me: There's something I really want. Husband: What is it? Me: Remember that special edition of Hyperion? Now they are doing the remaining three books in the series. It's going to be expensive... Husband (without any hesitation): Get them.

Winter seems to be letting go over here, but there's still time for a wintery 3d art. The little troublemaker had ran afoul of an ent who looks none too happy about being woken up…

If you're looking for binge-worthy epic fantasy with complex magic system, a lot of politics, and adventures, with two competent friends (who never turn into lovers but do love banter) facing off demons, corrupted mages, and monsters, check out Pacts Arcane and Otherwise! 🔗👇

Happy Valentine's Day! The image is brought to you by a comment that my imp from Wednesday's 3d art would make a great cupid. So here he is! And if you have any chocolate, eat one for me! 😉

The emergence of Nadine and her speed-reading companion:

I just realized that we have two different days back to back: today's Friday the 13th, which feels like "all things horror," and tomorrow we have Valentine's Day romance celebration. Which one do you prefer? Do you like them as genres or just sprinkled onto SFF stories?

Just a reminder that if you don't have any plans (romantic or otherwise) for the upcoming weekend, I have two complete series and a standalone, all perfectly binge-able that can provide plenty of escape. authorjm.com/books

I still have some Skittles left in the bag that my husband bought for me on Friday which might or might not be the highlight achievement of my week. I'm not sure they'll last until tomorrow, though...

Since Valentine's Day is coming, I have themed 3d art! Romance isn't my usual go to when it comes to art, but I couldn't help playing around to create a seductive succubus… Be careful, though! She has thorns!

On weekdays, I'm in bed before 10pm, and asleep in 5-10 mins. But today, it's two hours later, and I'm still wide awake. Currently making some hot milk with honey for myself in hope that it helps. But... Why did that happen? Wrong answers only! (The more absurd, the better.)

If you hate Generative AI, the best way to fight back is to support real artists 👁️

I made a phone call. Now I'm torn between riding that enormous success and doing "All the Things," and takin the rest of a day off, because making the phone call was more than enough. Well, at least I didn't postpone it for some 8 years like a certain call in the past, right?

Alternate Ireland from my urban fantasy series is full of factions that have no love for each other, but maintaining peace in a volatile and magical country often requires making compromises… unless, of course, the other side gives you a reason to act. 😉 Visit Dublin: bf.authorjm.com/Humanborn
