Book 2 is drafted! Now people can get into the Monsterwood files knowing that there will be more. Also, who doesn't love mysterious monsters, curious cryptids, and a national park with a haunted history?

Monsterwood Files 1 has been out for two days and I'm already over halfway done with the first draft of book 2. The draft is rough, but it's something I can build on. I've even unintentionally written some of book 3! There's so much mystery to be explored in Mosner.

Brianna Jean @briannajean.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

Welcome to Mosner! We have hiking trails, campsites, an RV park, and an oddity museum proudly displaying the biggest mystery in Mosner history! Not to mention unlikely friends working to build their lives their way. Come for the views, stay for the cryptids. #indieauthor #urbanfantasy

Monster of the week story set in a fictional national park where there may once have been monsters but none have been seen in decades, until recently they started to return. It started as an idea for a campaign setting. Then it turned into a book series. I'm having a lot of fun with Monsterwood.

Do the thing pretty please. You don't want to miss this introduction to the Mosner, a fictional national park with a history of monsters and a future full of mystery. There is a reason they call it the Monsterwood, and the cause may be coming back.

Imagine this: a monster of the week style series following a group of young adults dealing with unexpected creatures in a fictional national park with a forgotten history. It lives in the #cozymystery space, with a touch of magic and a possible hint of horror. Anyone interested? #indieauthor

I love running MOTW so much that I decided to try writing a cozy MOTW mystery. Turns out, I love that too, and I've got a lot to explore in this fictional national park.

Writing keeps me sane. The level of that sanity might be questionable, but it's still there.

Hollyville is the kind of place that is only found by those who need it, and it will always be where its needed. It's a home for the cursed, the monstrous, and those who don't belong. It is truly magical. I am truly proud of the story I told with Hollyville: Home of Monsters. #indieauthor

Today is a day of finishing episodes, playing around with story ideas, and working on my novella. I've also got a recording tonight for Gamewoven. This all adds up to a pretty nice Monday, I must say.

Something about getting ready to publish a new book, no matter how many times I've done it, sends me on a feels trip. Especially when it's the start of a series. I've been working on the Librarium Quartet for a while and I'm thrilled that book 1 comes out tomorrow.

I want to start exploring other genres, get out of my writing comfort zone. The dice have decided this will begin with a ghost story. Once I finish one of the two drafts I'm working on now.
