I've been tinkering with an Obsidian Path TTRPG for a while and am thinking I might dedicate a little serious time to finishing it. And so, a few questions for you lovely folks... Are you interested in this? Would you consider backing a Kickstarter for some gorgeously illustrated hard copies?

If you're in the UK, for just 9 more days, you can scoop up the ebook of my cozy-spooky fantasy rom-com Wooing the Witch Queen for only 99p! www.panmacmillan.com/authors/step... & of course it's still available everywhere else, too: stephanieburgis.com/books/wooing-the-witch-queen #romancelandia

In the centre of this image is the beautiful British cover of Wooing the Witch Queen, by Stephanie Burgis. The illustration shows a man in a cloak riding headlong through the night towards an ominous castle with an illuminated, crowned female figure in its doorway and bats flying overhead in the moonlight. A potion vial surrounds that central image and is further framed by leaves and branches. Crows sit on the branches, and a tagline reads: Love can be a witch. A blurb from Sangu Mandanna reads: ‘Warm and lovely’
Around the image, against a starry night background, are various pieces of text connected to it by arrows. They read: “bi villainous heroine,” “sweet cinnamon-roll hero with a fake identity,” “crow friends,” “found family,” and “flirting with fountains pens.” At the bottom of the image are the words: Only 99p this September!

Christopher Keene reviews @abraham.bsky.social's The Dagger and the Coin series! -JI🐉 "[It's in an] exclusive category of media that has gotten me...hyped about a subject I normally wouldn’t have given a passing glance. In this case: economics." fantasy-faction.com/2026/the-dag... #booksky 💙📚🪐

The image shows the five book covers from the series. Top row, from left to right: The King's Blood shows a silver battle axe with a flaming red sunset behind it. The Dragon's Path shows an elaborate sword with a dragon hilt, with a field and cloudy blue sky behind it. There is a black gorge burnt through the field with red running through it like a river. On one side of the field are silhouettes of men on horses looking on. The Tyrant's Law shows a golden caldron decorated with dragons with billowing yellow flames rising up from it. The flames end in dragon heads, and the caldron is in what looks like the hall of a prison. Bottom row, from left to right: The Widow's House shows a silver shield decorated with a dragon, with blood splattered across it. Leaning against it is a silver spear, also decorated with a dragon. Behind them is a raging turquoise sea under cloudy skies. The Spider's War shows the sharp steeple of a tall building overlooking a city far below. The steeple is so tall there are clouds below it partially obscuring the city. The dark shape of a dragon flies through the clouds and in the far distance are mountains. The whole cover has a green tone to it. The background of the is a darkening cloudy sky. "The Dagger and the Coin" is written above the books and "A Fantasy-Faction Series Review" is written below them.

More gorgeous book-mail today: this time, an early finished copy of Isabel Sterling's With All My Haunted Heart, a book I absolutely adore (and enthusiastically blurbed)! And check out the gorgeous character art that came with it. 😍 #romancelandia

This photo shows a trade paperback copy of Isabel Sterling's contemporary ghost-haunted romance novel With All My Haunted Heart. The illustration shows two long-haired women (one in flannel and jeans; the other in a short dress, tall boots, and an apron) kissing in front of a large old Victorian bed and breakfast at night with a mysterious pale light swirling around them. The blurb at the top is from Steph, and it reads: "A gorgeous queer romance full of both literal and metaphorical ghosts and magic."

This photo shows the back cover, which reads:
A witch hired to ethically haunt a small-town B&B instead finds herself spellbound by her nonmagical client in this cozy and enchanting sapphic romance.
Steadily losing clients to the new DIY magic shop on the other side of town, Pippa Ainsley is getting desperate. Instead of paying the witch to correct their magical maladies, local mundanes have been taking their chances with cheaper-and unpredictable-crystals and herbal blends. So when Pippa's best friend hires her to inspect his newly acquired bed-and-breakfast for ghosts, she doesn't think twice about it. That is, until she learns that his unfairly attractive co-owner, Elle Thompson, doesn't want Pippa to rid their business of spirits. She wants Pippa to give them an edge over the competition by haunting their B&B. It's the perfect challenge for Pippa's experimental magic, but just because she could figure it out, doesn't mean it's a smart or safe idea. But Elle is persistent, and the financial boost could save Pippa's own business if she succeeds. Soon, Pippa finds herself testing the limits of her magic ... and her ability to stop the growing attraction she feels for Elle, a woman with a painful secret of her own.

"An absolutely beautiful exploration on family, grief, healing, friendship, and what it means to reach for something new when your whole world feels shattered." —Shelly Jay Shore, USA Today Bestselling Author of Rules For Ghosting. "Spellbinding sapphic romance that's as charming as it is surprisingly moving." -Bridget Morrisey, Author of That Summer Feeling.

This photo shows the paperback beside a 4x6 inch art print of the same two woman in a passionate embrace with one of them sitting propped on top of a kitchen table with a pair of glasses laid down beside her.

He is wearing gauntlets that end at his elbows and has feathers on the top of his arms, running from his shoulders to the gauntlets. He has wild black hair and a face painted to look like a skull. Behind him is a brick wall where you can see the full moon just peeking around its edge. The only color in the blue-gray image is a glowing orange patch of skin on his cheek.

There's a book sale going on today through the 26th! Grab some great Indie books this week! You can also find my books on sale this week outside of Amazon and physical copies are 25% off in my Etsy shop. I'm waiting on Amazon to lower the prices of Hohab and Aogas but they're both on sale wide.
