Shiny. Gouache on paper. #septempera painting number 2 all done! I love magpies, also a little nod to one of my favorite TV shows.

It's paperback release day for PENNIES-a Blight Harbor prequel-and my author copies just showed up on my porch. There's something special about this book for me. Maybe it's just that I love these four girls so much. Plus I'm super-extra in love with this cover by @redolaf.bsky.social and Karyn Lee

It's here! The first graphic novel by my friend @redolaf.bsky.social is here! Everyone in my house is excited to read it. I've had the honor of working with Alfredo for the entirety of the Blight Harbor series and could not possibly be happier to celebrate the publication of his first solo book. 🖤

The Clackity illustrations look super cool when colored (the originals are in b&w) don’t you think so @lorasenf.bsky.social ?

Sword & Backpack: The Three Companions is REAL! Behold the ARC of the first book of my new coming-of-age fantasy adventure novel trilogy from Penguin Workshop! Bask in the beauty of the wraparound cover art by @redolaf.bsky.social! It’s “D&D meets Stand By Me” and it’s out September 2026 EVERYWHERE!

The cover of Sword & Backpack: The Three Companion, written by Gabe Soria and illustrated by Alfredo Caceres. Three young adventurers are walking boldly towards a dark forest…what will they find within?!

The back cover of Sword & Backpack: The Three Companions with thrilling jacket copy that reads:

“When an intrepid Knight is stuck between a dragon and a hard place, or a crafty Rogue is fleeing across the city’s rooftops from nimble scimitar-wielding skeletons, or a shrewd Mage is hunting for eldritch spell books in the haunted library of a dead city, two modest possessions are often the sole things that stand between them and certain, unpleasant death: a sword and a backpack.”

-From the pages of The Young Adventurer’s Almanac,
Fifth Edition

Ehmett Turzel is not a Mage, Barten Two-Knives is not a Rogue, and Kellis Rook is not a Knight, but when a chance late-night encounter mystically binds the trio of young loners together, the three unlikely companions must strap on sword and backpack and embark upon a quest that will take them throughout the Splintered Lands, a fantastic world filled with magic and danger, a realm where the Grand Age of Adventure has long since ended…

…or has it?
