#3157 A helpful tutorial

Finally made myself contact booksellers and bloggers for my upcoming release 🙈 Let's see what the response is. Oh, and if anyone wants to be an ARC reader, let me know forms.gle/VGPRug6f1TPz... (no FB account necessary, just makes things easier) #yafantasy #booksky #arcreader #newrelease 🪐📚

buy art, talk about creative works, boost creator's works and ways to pay them, be passionate about creative works. Reblog that art, tell that writer you love their work, give them money if you are able, make their comms and patreons and such visible to those who can pay if you are unable to.

10/10 take. No notes.

Milena: playing with her father and using wind magic to fly from the swing into his arms. Romy: cuddling with her grandma, listening to her stories of her youth during the days of globalisation (yes our days 😭)

Had a spam request on Instagram today, gushing about my Spirit Seeker series and how much she wants to draw the spirit world, after I captured the theme of loss & grief so well... Girl, the only thing the nature spirits in that series are grieving is the progression of climate change! 🙄

Day 5 of 30 books 30 days on Google Play brings Ghosts in the Catacomb by @janna-ruth.com, featuring a compassionate FMC in an Urban Fantasy taking place in Paris 🌈🚀💫 📚🌎 #writingcommunity 📢📚 🩷🧙♂️⚔️ 🪐📚 #booksky #Books #readingcommunity #readers #readersofbluesky

Happy #TeaserTuesday! There's only 5 weeks until WWW Weather? 😁 Here's one of my favourite sentences of the book. “Earth magic steadies air mages. Earth magic in an air witch is like binding a stone around a bird’s neck. It’s cruel.” You can pre-order the book here: books2read.com/wyldwitch1

IT'S NOVEMBER but I'm not ready to give up the ghost just yet!! Go for it young miss!! 💚 #spookycute #ocs

Happy @nano2point0.bsky.social! Already put my first words down (NZ privileges ;)) What’s everyone writing this month?

😱 Guys, it's done! A few incoherent thoughts: - biggest book of the series (only barely, though) - there's an epilogue - I cried - several times - but I also pumped my fist in the air and led a revolution... or well, let Alix lead one. 😁 Need to pre-order? 👉 books2read.com/ghostsofther...

Last chapter! Last chapter!

Alright. Went shopping, made cake pops and wrote my newsletter. It's time to finish that book now! 😁 #writing

You didn't think you'd get out of Halloween without some shocking news! Quick, the prices! They've been slashed into pieces! 😱 View the carnage on itch.io and treat yourself to 28 fantasy books for only $9.99. 👉 itch.io/b/3311/hallo... #writing #bookbundle

How to avoid finishing a book, a pro-tipp: Just keep adding chapters. 🙃 Still 3 chapters to go. #writing

Four more chapters until the end of my series. So pumped but also scared! #writing

Ended up hilariously matching with Elijah Wood at Armageddon Auckland (best sales ever, btw). 😁

Pulled off an absolute mad writing/prep day, alternating a scene of writing with a big prep job. Managed my goal of 6.5k and only have one task left now, which I'll get a good chunk in at least. Now up to the finale of the second act. Even with going away tomorrow, PG9 feels possible now! 🥰

My writing day so far... Made it into flow state Had to leave for 3 hours to sit outside a birthday party Made it into flow state Had to take other child to dentist Didn't make it into flow state until ages in Dinner... Oh well, 1.5 hours left in this day. Let's go! 😅 #writing

For those who don't want to wait until Alix's next adventure comes out!

It's done! I've plotted the heck out of the second part of Ghosts of the Revolution. Finale, here we come! How I know it's the finale? Just look at this not-even-complete cast list for chapter 36. 🤪 #authorsky #writing #parisianghosts

Finally had a bit of a plot flow - sorting all the puzzle pieces into order. Got access to 12 more chapters with only 3-4 to go after that - but I'll figure those out tomorrow. 😴

#wipwednesday a good, steady week despite being bogged down by too many side quests and growing pressure from the looming con week 😬 BUT I'm officially out of plot!

Hey, I'm Janna and I write Urban Fantasy at the end of the world (aka NZ) and I'm currently torn in two by writing the final book in my Parisian Ghosts series and marketing the first one in my upcoming YA series: Wyld Lands Academy (🤫 99c in my store janna-ruth.myshopify.com/products/wyl...)

Coffee and chocolate to make up for all the pains au chocolate Alix consumes. Oh, and there's a special cheese-scented Sébastien version 🧀

Share a cartoon from the past kids today probably never heard of. 📺 I'm pretty sure this series has shaped nearly all of my political opinions (and yes, it's a childhood cartoon with a LOT of big themes) - definitely one of those things that hold up the test of time 😅

#TuesdayTeaser for you! Making the world better won’t happen in a day. Every change in history was part of a longer process. That’s why you never really know when you live through a historic event until you also lived through the consequences. 👻 Pre-order here: books2read.com/ghostsofthee...

Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm S. D. McMillan a.k.a LittleEvil0ne and I love painting diverse bodies and fantasy art! Portfolio and Commission info: littleevil0ne.carrd.co Email: [email protected]

I might have cried a little after reading @chrisbaty.bsky.social blog post on @nano2point0.bsky.social - after seeing so many different groups pop up, this is exactly what we need. A resource collection and a community spotlight. I'm a writer today because of #nanowrimo & still incredibly grateful

Before it shut down, #NaNoWriMo offered 100% non-boring creative writing workbooks and curriculum to K-12 classrooms. NaNo 2.0's resident educator @lambradley.bsky.social preserved and updated all of it, and it's now available for free on our site! nano2.org/posts/2025/i... 📚

That writing fast means it's bad quality. I've written books fast and slow and you wouldn't be able to tell which were which, but just on general, the speed someone writes has nothing to do with the quality and there's no minimum or maximum wpm an author has to write to be legit 😉

I wrote a thing! 😁 With lots of pictures! 🥰 Head to my Patreon to see how I created my first illustrated cover and the steps it took, lessons learn and more!

I'm about 4 chapters away from when my plot runs out. Please send help... or rather make me sit down and plot the rest of the book before I have to stop writing 😅

I officially illustrated my first cover! 🥰 It's going to be for a free reader magnet, a prequel to my new YA Urban Fantasy series "Wyld Lands Academy". And yes, there will be weather magic 😁 #ya #cover #illustration #artsky

Guess I have to insert a new subplot before I finish writing Parisian Ghosts. As if the catacombs weren't horrifying enough yet 😉

Yes, I have a YA fantasy out! www.snowywingspublishing.com/book/fire-he... www.snowywingspublishing.com/book/cold-st... #YAfantasy #sapphic #swords

It's like 2.30am, but I just finished a beautiful (and totally unexpected as in I didn't plot this) scene for PG9 🥰 Who needs sleep when you can write a little miracle? (as in what happens in the plot is a miracle, not the book is so amazing it's a miracle 😜 Yes, I should be in bed)
