The 5⭐️ reviews keep coming for @realraelaw's The Curse of the Fart Witch. "A fart-powered witch, barking spiders, potion-filled water guns, and a final battle triggered by a fart in church? Yep, this book absolutely goes there, and kids are going to love every disgusting second of it. "

Checked the #NetGalley reviews for #TheCurseoftheFartWitch and I'm humbled. This is the most joyful story I've ever told. I teared up a bit - it's been 5 long yrs since K gave me this memorable character to build upon. Thanks baby girl/cranky pre-teen.🫶

Did you know The Curse of the Fart Witch was inspired by my daughter, K? Nearly 5 years ago to the day she declared the existence of a Fart Witch! She was kind enough to let me write a story about the stinky sorceress. Available from October 1, 2026.

WimpyKid X Goosebumps Living in the shadow of his chaos-gremlin older brother, an 11yo finds his voice when a fart-powered, body-snatching witch kidnaps his Abuela & threatens to curse their town into oblivion. #QuestPit #Q #MG #F #SomethingWickedThisWaySmells #CinematicNotSilly

Mock-up book cover for The Curse of the Fart Witch by Rae Law. Tag line "Something Wicked This Way Smells". An evening street with lit up houses, green gas coiling upwards, there are a number of oversized alien-looking spiders (about the size of dogs - sentient barking spiders) throughout the image.
Flags: Reluctant hero, sibling redemption, spooky humour (cinematic, not silly), kids vs supernatural threat, sentient minions, Goonies style ensemble cast.

An excerpt from a sentient Barking Spider's journal - the spider is British gentry and pompously complains about the witch's promise of exquisite stink not being fulfilled and how the locals have spritzed him with a rosemary-mint abomination.

Moodboard of four images, all of which comes from various paintings by Alphonse Mucha:
Left: Salon des Cent. A woman conceals her mouth with a hand, her index finger curled down. She's glaring intensely at the viewer.
Middle top: The Moon. A woman wearing nothing but a navy blanket covered in stars stands against a backdrop consisting of the night sky and a crescent moon. She covers her smile with one hand.
Middle bottom: Emerald. A serpent snarls at the viewer from amidst green lilies.
Right: Poster for the 6th Sokol Festival. A woman in red, wearing a crown, sits as she clutches flower rings in her right hand and up her right arm. A ghostly, green image of a woman glares behind her.

I got a sliver of agent feedback and have rewritten the first 2 chapters of Skybridge. It feels so weird to front load the action instead of building and peeling away layers. But until I’m a household name with a loyal fan base, I guess I have to play along.

The Skybridge Key was half-ass written in 2020. It was only recently that one of my daughter’s friends read Chrysalis & asked me what else I wrote like that. I told her about Skybridge - she read a bit and loved it. So I cracked it open and refined it. I learned a LOT in 4 yrs.
