Happy release day to @valinoratroy.bsky.social and ‘Lianna and the Hombit’. A wonderful middle grade fantasy with a magical bird - and lots of illustrations by me! 😁 📢📚 #Booksky

Cover image by Laura Tolton. Showed a young girl with dark skin and hair in a white dress and green cape standing on a moonlight shore. Menacing sea stacks loom in the background. Around the girls neck hangs a glowing Ruby ring. Perched on her right hand is a beautiful bird that looks made out of glass. Lianna and the Hombit by Valinora Troy.”A rich compelling mystery… full of heart.” Cover quote from H.S Norup.

Hello! My name is Iseult and I write horror, fantasy and science fiction. I’m feeling a little tired today, so I’m going to let Angelina take over. She’s the main character in my Christmas novelette, “Hanging On”. She’s only 7 and she likes coloring and ballet. #HorrorWritersChat

It rolled across the fields, killing everything in its path, including his dog Socks ten minutes earlier. Now it surrounded him. He didn’t know how long he could hold his breath. He text Ciara to make for high ground, that he loved her, and goodbye. In the mist, Socks barked. #HorrorWritersChat
