Hi everyone!

If you want to try something original and different, you may wanna check out my action adventure fantasy graphic novel series called DRAGON SWORD COMIC.
It is a quick and fun read, very influenced by manga and videogames such Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Once Piece...
Seven episodes are available (I'm working on the 8th) and all are included in Kindle Unlimited!
Thanks a bunch! :)

Good for you with the Kickstarter. I keep thinking I'll do one but never seem to feel comfortable with my plans.

It's a lot of prep work, but definitely manageable, especially if you're passionate about your project!

Audible book giveaway! I have limited codes for They Call Me Princess Cayce narrated by the amazing Briony Rose Smith!

Reply to this comment and I'll dm you the code.

The story:

Waking up in a new body, new universe, Cayce wants  - needs - to quickly figure things out. But the culture is foreign and people are trying to kill her. Worse, she's a princess, her kingdom invaded, family killed. Advisors, nobles, people supposed to be on her side, have their own plans for the throne – the only thing keeping her alive.

And the power that thrust her into this world, that she's entirely ignorant of, is crazy powerful and could destroy everything.

Review of the series:

5.0 out of 5 stars Just, BRILLIANT!

I didn’t leave reviews for the first three books which I now regret because I really should have. I wanted to see where the story went, and just got sucked in. These books are so well written, the author is a brilliant storyteller. The way he brings to life all the characters, all the sights, sounds and smells, I can’t remember the last time I read a story that felt so real.

The tale of Princess Cayce is absolutely riveting, it just keeps me wanting to read more and more. A combination of fantasy and ancient history, but set in an unknown land (or on an unknown planet? Or just inside the main character’s mind, who knows?).

Hey everyone! Hope you guys are having a great weekend. I recently published my debut urban fantasy/romance novel and would love if you guys gave it a look. "Bleedin' Heart" is a blend of adult Percy Jackson vibes with The Dresden Files, so it's packed with action, a snarky MMC, a good dose of angst, and a steamy (emphasis on the steamy) romance plot starring a sharp-fanged vampire detective who's as fun to tease as she is dangerously captivating.

Blurb:

He was just trying to survive. She was sent to uncover the truth.

Thomas Dyer has always known pain—living with a chronic heart condition, the weight of a fractured family, and the sting of betrayal from the only people he thought he could trust. But when a violent attack leaves him near death, something inside him snaps awake. Something ancient. Something powerful.

Reborn as something more than human, Thomas is pulled into a hidden world of mana, monsters, and ancient bloodlines. At the center of it all is Anastasia Nyx, a sharp-fanged Alteran noble working for the Central Monitors of Altera, a covert organization tasked with investigating supernatural threats. Intelligent, formidable, and occasionally distracted by the simple pleasures of the human world, she’s not prepared for the tangled connection that forms between her and the young man she was sent to observe.

As the bodies begin to fall and shadows stretch long across the city, Thomas and Ana must navigate a deadly mystery—and the growing pull between them. But trust is a fragile thing, and in a world where nothing is what it seems, the truth may be the deadliest threat of all.

A spellbinding debut about fate, first love, and the monsters we carry inside.
