#WIPSnips The word for December 15 is BLANKET Blankets are for keeping warm and sleeping, and Dorilian is asleep in this snip from THE RILL LORD. Those with him want him to catch that rest. And there's more afoot also. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Triempery

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

#WIPSnips The word for December 11 is FULL Here's a fun pre-battle bit from THE RILL LORD. Dorilian and the Khelds have been enemies since forever. Now they are to fight on the same side. But can they put aside their animosity? #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Triempery

It's book quote Wednesday, and the word is 'blue'. Blue is an important colour in The Many Shades of Midnight. It's the colour of Isyrium, the mineral that underpins the whole economy of Ellasia and is used for everything from heating and lighting to jewellery and clothing dye. #bookqw 💙📚

#WIPSnips The word for December 10th is PIPE Few "pipes" in THE RILL LORD, so I opted for "pipeline," which is kind of like a "pipe" but a line of them, right? In this snip Hans is talking with Dorilian about Aubrey, who he hasn't seen in several weeks. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

Hello friends, I'm finalizing my 2026 TBR list! So while I check all I had already, if you have a release in 2026 (SF/Fantasy/Horror/Romantasy), I would love to hear from you.

December appears to be the month of Urban Fantasy. The new Self Published Fantasy Release list has just gone live and it is a BIG month both in quantity and some of the names putting out books. Check it out! robjhayes.co.uk/self-publish...

#WIPSnips The word for December 4 is CITY Cities play a big role in the Triempery series, including in THE RILL LORD. One of three god-built Cities, Mormantalorus, is ruled by the villain Nammuor, a sorcerer. That city is home to dark magic and technology. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Triempery

Today is Book Quote Wednesday and the word is WORLD This snip is from THE KHELD KING. And who is angry at the world? Dorilian, of course. So is Stefan, though he's not in this scene. Between them, though, they bring an empire to ruin... #WritingCommunity #bookqw #epicfantasy

My crowdfund for The Chosen One Con only has 30 hours left!! This is the gayest book I've written yet! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/t...

At first you're like, why does this have a wiki page Then you find out it might be the best wiki page ever

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

It's A Month of Rain & Reads, and to round out this weekend, we have an interview with Joel C. Flanagan-Granneman ( @servantand.bsky.social ), author of the Servants of the Moon and Sun series. www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-inter... #AMoRaR #BookSky

#WIPSnips The word for November 23rd is GLOBAL "Global" doesn't appear in the Triempery series, but there's lots of talk about the "world." Here's a bit from THE RILL LORD in which Dorilian lays a global, as in "encompassing," truth about the series' villain, Nammuor. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

It's A Month of Rain & Reads, and we have this weekend's first guest post. In it, Cat Rector ( @catrector.com ) talks about how to get your books into libraries and why you should. www.readindiefantasy.com/guest-post-g... #AMoRaR #WriteSky

Another #SFINCS review from me today, this one for Dave Lawson's The Pawns of Havoc. I had fun with this one, a morally ambiguous sword and sorcery tale with a touch of light romance: www.angelaboord.com/post/sfincs-... 💙🪐📚 #SFF #indiebooks

#WIPSnips The word for November 21 is DIRECTION Battlefields are chaotic. Finding "direction" is vitally important and sometimes difficult. In this bit from THE RILL LORD, Arne finds himself needing to make decisions. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

I could watch people ice Christmas biscuits on instagram all day

Daily Challenge 21: That's Epic! - Share your favorite epic fantasy. Indie and self-published books only of course! #AMoRaR #BookSky

My first #SFINCS review is up! IResiduum by DB Rook is a fun SF apocalyptic adventure that reminded me of an action movie. www.angelaboord.com/post/sfincs-... 💙🪐📚 #SFF #indiebooks

I think I’ve used this passage before, but it’s the only ’special’, outside of ‘especially’, that I have,… 😬 From ‘Reign, Dear’. #WiPSnips

The Works of Vermin, by @hironennes.bsky.social (pub by @torbooks.bsky.social) is a novel that blurs the line between genres, an imaginative proposal that gifts the reader with stuff worthy of nightmares (in the good sense). Full thoughts: jamreads.com/reviews/the-... 💙📚

the highs and lows of social media encapsulated in a single post.

#WIPSnips 21 November 'special' Here's one of my favourite instances of 'special' in The Many Shades of Midnight. #writingcommunity #writingprompts #writesky #writingfantasy #indiefantasy

Daily Challenge 20: Trans Joy - Share your favorite book by a trans author or featuring a trans protagonist. Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance so also join us in honoring the memory of transgender individuals whose lives were lost due to anti-transgender violence. #AMoRaR #BookSky

#WIPSnips 19 November 'third' All my WIP uses of 'third' are spoilery, so here's one I found in the story Ailuin's Peace from In Midnight's Shadow. #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #indiefantasy #shortstory

#WIPSnips The word for November 19 is THIRD In this snip from THE RILL LORD we see Aubrey grappling with rune reading. Princess Emyli also reads runes but the two women have different ways of reading them... so of course they reach different conclusions. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Triempery

We're starting the day with a new review! This time sci-fi Chasing Howe by J. F. Miev as written by @authorjtomala.bsky.social: www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-book-... #AMoRaR

Daily Challenge: 19: Prophecy or Curse - Would you rather be subject to a prophecy or curse? Know any indie books that explore either? #AMoRaR #BookSky

#WIPSnips The word for November 18 is RETROGRADE I'm using the definition of "backward" because that better fits the language of my series... and that word actually appears in THE RILL LORD. In this snip Aubrey confronts a young noble about his fancy purchases. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

For those reading, or interested in reading, the Triempery Revelations series, here's an interview I did with P.L. Stuart. I talk about SORDANEON, and writing, and life. Enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAQ7...
