Take a tour through M. Laszlo's new author website! Laszlo published 5 books, so I had to make sure his website didn't feel cluttered, while also showing off all his books. But I love how it turned out. 🤩 The colors, fonts, layout, everything! #writingcommunity #authorwebsites

PIRANESI x CRIMSON PEAK A misfit architect who builds impossible doorways discovers one opens into a cursed house between worlds, full of rooms only she could've designed. Now the house won't let her leave—and the stranger inside, blaming her family for its curse, may be her only ally. #DVPit #A #F

Can you judge a book by its cover? I went to Cleveland's book fest to find out. The book fair had a lot of local book shops that had a lot of books with covers. But The Keeper of Lonely Spirits by E.M. Anderson stood out to me! Isn't it an awesome cover? #Books #BookCover #writingcommunity
