Happy #caturday! Kiki is helping me today, here's her book pitch: Buy Phoenix Rises, Dragon Soars: a fantasy as dark as me (Kiki), with characters as hunted as the mice I go after, magic that's as volatile as my moods, and gentler moments like when I allow my human to cuddle me. #booksky #fantasy

Found another great review for Phoenix Rises, Dragon Soars! I'll never tire of seeing these and knowing that my story and my characters become a part of people's lives, even if for a little while.

Looks like I'll have to take a step back from social media, writing and editing. I might be headed for more of a ME/CFS relapse than I thought but am still hoping to stave it off if I dial things down now. Hopefully it will only be a few days 🤞🏻

Not yet properly edited as I'm still getting back into Concord of Spirits after a year away, but I'm definitely rediscovering why I started writing this (definitely) grimdark fantasy in the first place. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writers #writesky #writingprompts #fantasywriters #WIPSnips

There is something quite special about writing a book that's set in a world (loosely) inspired by feudal Japan, when you've been there only a couple of months ago and can actually see the streets you're describing in your memories. 🥰

Woke up with creative energy after an imposter syndrome day yesterday so I took the day away from social media, and would you believe it? I wrote a whole chapter, 2500 whole words, for my current WIP, Concord of Spirits.🥳 I feel so proud of myself. #indieauthor #writingcommunity #writesky

It's caturday, my friends, and my black cat has reviewed (e.g harshly judged) Phoenix Rises, Dragon Soars. Her verdict? 5 Stars: Would stare into the void again. Would you read a book approved by this little black overlord...eh lady? #indieauthor #fantasy #booksky #sff #caturday

They called her a criminal and killed her for a magic she didn't choose. And if the truth had been known, Huizhong would've never existed. Discover a world where magic is a death sentence in Phoenix Rises, Dragon Soars. #fantasy #booksky #sff

Grey morals. Earned romance. Flawed but human characters. That's Phoenix Rises, Dragon Soars. Follow 4 broken souls-a mercenary, a noblewoman, a disgraced general, and a shamaness-as they confront their pasts, learn to wield forbidden power, and form a found family in a world wanting them dead. #sff

No page reads on Kindle Unlimited for almost 2 months now. I think I'll end this experiment in April when my renewal comes up. I gave it a good try but dark, character-driven Asian fantasy clearly has no audience on there. It's not worth limiting my options anymore.

Back to my WIP after 1 year break: "Spirits, but he looked…dead. She swallowed the lump in her throat and fetched her lamp. Never assume, Himari, the Reverend Mother had said. Always confirm your diagnosis by checking symptoms and facts." #writingcommunity #writingprompts #fantasywriters #WIPSnips

Here's a cat for you. Her name is Kiki and she really wants more people to read the book her mum (that's me) wrote. Please buy my book. It would make Kiki very happy! 😁 #SFF #Fantasy #Indieauthor #caturday #darkfantasy #booksky

Jindai lost his wife, his children. All that's left now is vengeance. And the magic he shouldn't possess. Want to find out more? Link in my bio! #indieauthor #fantasy #booksky #sff #darkfantasy

Now he risks everything for a chance at the one thing he thought he couldn't have: a family, a home. Phoenix Rises, Dragon Soars: Link in my bio! #booksky #indieauthor #darkfantasy #sff #fantasy

From the WIP that's going to my editor soon: "The black-clad man pulled the tray closer and removed the cloth. Beneath it lay a selection of small knives—perhaps a surgeon’s—and a lidded ceramic pot." If you know PRDS, you'll know this means nothing good. #writingcommunity #fantasywriters #WIPSnips

Had to use a synonym: save. This one's from Tiger Cowers Dragon Falls, which is going to my editor next week🥳 "She still recalled the smell of burned flesh, the charred and blackened bodies she had left behind when she had used Wuxing to save herself from those bandits." #WIPSnips #writingcommunity
