The manuscript went off to its new editor last week and I'm not gonna lie: I was pretty emotional. Book 2 has had one hell of a journey. I wrote it across multiple states, in campgrounds, on trains and planes, and in a few living situations. It's where the heart of the series was truly born.
Book 1 was intended to stand alone but when I finished it, new characters snuck their way into my brain. One of them (Sam), has ended up becoming one of my absolute favorites. His tragedy, addiction to productivity, and sweet but mysterious manner is sure to win your heart. His, Lilith's, and Lucio's talismans will be available as backer rewards with this campaign and I'm so excited about them!
This One Counts
Books 3-5 have already been written. Book 6 is in progress as we speak. This campaign is the pinch point for the series, so every pledge, share, interaction counts. If you read Book 1, please consider leaving a review on Goodreads, Amazon, Storygraph, etc. If you follow me on social media, comment or reshare posts--the algorithm notices. I'm a very small creator with an incredible amount of distance from the success of Star Cross'd Destiny, so I am very much dependent on these small acts to get in front of new people. You're the heroes of Southwest Gothic. Thank you so much for helping it get this far.
so shiny. so sexy.
Pledge Reservations are Open for Only 11 More Days! This is your only chance to get a mini-poster with sparkly foil inlay--the shiniest art I've ever offered. You'll get your choice of character doing an epic power move but only if you opt in before the campaign launches on September 10th.
