Choose Your Own Religion

Here’s a tease of the cover of THE SORCERESS QUEEN AND THE PIRATE ROGUE, out April 19, 2021. This is Book #2 in Heirs of Magic, Book #1 being THE GOLDEN GRYPHON AND THE BEAR PRINCE, with a prequel novella, THE LONG NIGHT OF THE CRYSTALLINE MOON, in the UNDER A WINTER SKY anthology. The cover isn’t quite final, so some elements here may change, but it’s getting close! Look for a full reveal soon. 🙂

Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is “That Old Tyme RELIGION: Does Religion Change the Course of a Story?” Come on over for my tale.

A cat photobomb today - and subsequent podcaster injury. Also how same cat had a major jailbreak, spring garden cleanup, and why I sometimes (often?) make choices that aren't the best businesswise.

Thank you all for the kind comments yesterday! I'm better today and talking about slut-shaming, "selfish" as a dog whistle, and double standards. Also a shoutout to Darynda Jones on the release of BEGUILED!

You can check out BEGUILED here https://darynda.com/books/beguiled​.

And check out CAPTURE THE CROWN by Jennifer Estep here https://www.jenniferestep.com/series/...​

And here is the text of Darynda's blurb for DARK WIZARD:

"With delicious characters and exquisite writing, Jeffe Kennedy is an author you simply can't go wrong with. Dark Wizard is one of my top reads ever. It will always have a place on my favorites shelf. I was drawn deeper and deeper into the story with each succulent twist. Each savory turn. Jeffe writes with stunning beauty and clarity, and I can't even hate her for it. I've tried. Oh, how I've tried. She's just that good. Damn it. You know what? I take it all back. Fuck you, Jeffe Kennedy, if that's even your real name. I hate you so bad. So, so bad. Also, when is the next book coming out? Not that I'm going to read it. You know why? Because I hate you. So bad. But if you could give me a general idea, that'd be great. A+! Highly recommended!"
–NY Times Bestselling Author Darynda Jones

More on the anxiety that comes with being a writer - or maybe any creative - and how the fear that people won't like your work never goes away. And a bit on how some readers don't like certain kinds of heroines.

You can watch the video of this episode on YouTube. The IG live video didn't save. *Sigh*

The love/hate reaction to art and how this applies to radio stations and selling books. Also a bit about Astar and the boys of Heirs of Magic. Good news on Dark Wizard, plus choosing crit partners.
