This is one I'm looking forward to, but today it's only the cover reveal. Check out Retrograde by Amber Toro in all its glory: Retrograde, book 3 in the Sentient Stars series, is coming December 2026.

Currently reading... This is really not my usual thing, but the author's writing is so so good, I just had to give it a try.

Tuesday is a good day to start a new project. I've been a full-time proofreader for five years now, and quitting my office job to do this was one of the best decisions I've made.

dominish_books @dominishbooks.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

It's TBR time - what are you looking to read next month? For October I've put together a selection of books that could go either way for me - plus a series finale that I can't see being anything less than excellent! Check out my plan here: youtu.be/NTZMQzIrSxQ

This year I'm going to try out The Heralds of Valdemar by Mercedes Lackey. I love a bit of (what I call) classic fantasy, but I've never tried Lackey's work. There's a deluxe edition of the trilogy coming soon, and it looks fantastic. Check it out here: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/z...

dominish_books @dominishbooks.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

My latest project, and a matching new look for an earlier project. I love my job! Proofreading slots for the rest of 2026 are available – if you're looking for that sweet spot of quality, efficiency, and cost, drop me a line.

I enjoyed working on The Shade of Ronhu, and I look forward to seeing it published later this year. It's always lovely to hear how happy my authors are with the work I do for them. If you're looking for a proofreader you can trust to take good care of your book, drop me a line.

Winter's Fury by A.E. Rayne has been on my Kindle for four years, and now it's finally time to dive in. I chose the audiobook option though, and it's going well – I'm a little over 10% through at the moment. What are you reading this weekend?
