THE BONE BRIDES is out TODAY! Hayao Miyazaki meets Guillermo del Toro in this Sapphic YA portal fantasy in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faery realm. I have waited since I was 7 years old to be able to say... GO FIND ME IN YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE! ❤️

Graphic proclaiming, “Now Available Everywhere Books are Sold!” above a copy of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter. “A marvelous, metaphorical masquerade.” –Kirkus Reviews. The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward. One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage. The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal. In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit. Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines. Very moody and atmospheric. The book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.

Trope map graphic for THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter, that includes “changeling x human romance”; “are skeleton rabbits cute?”; “mental illness rep”; “whimsical x spooky”; “a grumpy witch”; “don’t look up”; “a drowned faery realm”; and “queer girls in love.”

Changelings have always had a special place in my heart, so of course I jumped at the chance to write about them for Reactor! Featuring fabulous changeling stories by @franceshardinge.bsky.social, @hgparry.bsky.social, @kimberlybea.bsky.social, Ivelisse Houseman, and @macarrick.bsky.social!

Changelings have been long maligned as monstrous within faerie folklore, but are we so limited in our imaginations? @marleyroseteter.bsky.social (The Bone Brides) recommends 5 books that offer a different spin on the changeling story:

Five Unique Takes on Faerie Changelings - Reactor

These changelings get to be more than just monsters...

#SpookySunday Always keen to "do different", one of Norfolk's ghostly offerings is a spectral Cow which haunts the village of South Lopham. Appearing in times of difficulty, the bovine hangs around to offer spiritual support, and disappears once things have returned to "normal" ...

I missed #InternationalRabbitDay??? (Featuring perfect prince Lysander and Hippo, our sweet departed dumbass, whom we miss every day.)

An extremely handsome off-white lionhead bunny stands in front of a ziggurat built of ARCs of THE BONE BRIDES. He is flanked by his honor guard of bunny stuffed animals.

Two bunnies lie next to each other. The one closer to the camera (who has head-tilt) is yawning....which looks rather like a ferocious yawp.

Butt-shot of two bunnies, fluffy thumpies on display.

A white bunny lounges majestically along the top/back of a red couch.

This news is important because all the fucks out there actively attempting to wreck the world want you to think that the work is hopeless and just mitigating the worst case scenario. It's not. Fucking keep going.

A.I. and corporate lingo are dragging language ynto drugged realmes of vague, airy, plastic nothingnesse: glitz and hyperbole wythout meaning. Language must have fur and clawes, make the floorboardes creake and leave wet dirtye footprintes. Wordes are rayne and fyre and stone. Wielde them. Save us.

9pm, 4 days pre-pub: "I think I'm gonna treat myself to an updated trope map now that I'm a little better at Canva!" I suspect that my definition of "treating myself" has gotten a wee bit skewed...

I've been on this road a long time...

Stationery paper and star stickers over a green background. Text: "My whole life, there've only ever been two things I've wanted to be..."

1. a faery

Scrapbook style page includes a photo of a messy-haired girl in a pink faery costume, holding a watering can ("garden faery, age 5"), a young woman in a white dress and faery wings ("age 19"), and a doodle ("drawn by a friend, age 15") that includes "Marley is a fairy! or a ghost"

2. a writer

Scrapbook style page includes a photo of a little girl sitting at a desk and holding up a writing utensil ("age 5"), cramped little kid writing ("diary entry, age 7, declaring plans to publish a book"), and a cut out from a black and white senior magazine ("voted 'most likely to be the next great author' in high school")

"Guess I'll settle for being a writer of faery books" (smiley face)

Shows cover of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter, and a photo of the author holding three ARCs, labeled "a debut novelist!"
