An image of two white men holding hands. One has blond curly hair, and is wearing casual clothes: green t-shirt, a green shirt over it, and brown pants. The other has black hair and is wearing a three-piece black suit with a white shirt and red tie.

The blond man on the left is surrounded by green clouds, and is summoning brambles from it with his other hand.

The suited man on the right is surrounded by fire and flying shards of ice, and is holding a fireball in his other hand.

Text below them reads "Inheritance, AK Faulkner" and the url discoverinheritance.com (though I'll add that ravenswordpress.com also works).

Text around them contains the following collection of quotes from critics:

"A consistently gripping and remarkable urban fantasy saga" - Kirkus

"Potent and enchanting" - Foreword Reviews

"First rate" - Blueink Reviews

"Not for the faint of heart" - Hailey Turner

"Captivating" - Publishers Weekly

"Deeply kind-hearted" - Alasdair Stuart

"Empowering" - IndieReader

"Complex and powerful" - Self Publishing Review

I wrote to @leewelchwriter.bsky.social that I am one of the people who'd happily wear a "Run as if Mr Collins just proposed!" shirt.

"Mr Collins in Love" changed my mind. It shows the Austen character in a new light and makes him more approachable.

Also 🌶️

Need to read Lee's other books now!

It's nearly 9:45am here. No work. A bit of yoga, a bit of reading so far, and now I'm off to have a professional bend my fingers and wrists (aka ergotherapy).

A medical professional once told me that's because there are taste buds at that end too.
I admit, I haven't fact-checked it yet.
