Notices by The Crow Witch 🌙 (vicorva@tootplanet.space)

You might consider this a bit strange, but BOOKS & BONE got a 3.5* review from a book blog that I actually really like.

I love positive mid-range reviews because I feel like they give a lot of information, and book bloggers are often very hard to please!

Anyway, if you're on the fence about trying my librarians-and-necromancy fantasy BOOKS & BONE, maybe check it out:

RockstarLit Book Asylum hosts a special segment where authors send their characters to an Asylum and write about what happens.

So what happens when Ree from BOOKS & BONE gets put in an Asylum, you ask?

Step One: Make Friends

Step Two: Raise Hell

Exclusive short story that is just a bit of fun. Free to read and please do have a look and maybe leave a comment for the nice folk at Rockstar Lit!

The familiar wants tummy rubs. This is an important source of power.

She took it into her arms. It huddled against her chest and she kicked back up to the surface.

When she breached, the witch nodded. 'Good,' said the witch. 'You will need a companion for what comes next. The life of a witch is not easy.'

She looked down at the cat in her arms. It blinked up at her, scraggly and shivering, and she held it closer.

'So this ... is me?'

'We are all of us made of many parts,' the witch replied. 'But you'll learn that soon enough.'

'In the Mirrordeep, you will face your true self,' the witch had said.

So she had descended into that matte black lake, and not a ripple appeared at her passage. Down through the dark and cold that slicked her skin as she drifted ever lower.

Slowly, darkness gave way to light. At the bottom of the Mirrordeep, in glassy water on a bed of crystalline sand, she found a cat with fur in rainbow hues, curled and wet and alone.

Music had been helping me write but I started to get twitchy about the songs changing so now I'm listening to the same song over and over again like god intended

:blobcatpeek: Support an independent author?

For every book I sell, I pet my cat and say 'We *did* it!'

My librarians-and-necromancy fantasy is out now.

:blobcatpeek: ok bye

I am #writing and it is slow and I am not finding it easy.

But I don't hate the words as they hit the page. And I'm still sitting here and doing it.

That feels like a victory.

I don't think there's anyone about who hasn't seen it, but if you're feeling generous you can support my #kickstarter to publish my librarians-and-necromancy fantasy novel, BOOKS & BONE.

I'm now trying to hit the first stretch goal to cover the cover art and the cost of ISBNs so I can get it into libraries and shops and just ... other places than Amazon.

Thanks to all who have supported so far! 💙

Good morning :tootplanet: and tootfriends!

May you find inspiration today. ✨

I'm at the table writing

My partner is at the table studying

Merlin is at the table for moral support.

Have I told you guys about the time I got mistaken for an IRL necromancer by my writing group?
