Heyyy everybody! Myself a bunch of other authors are holding a sale on our books + services from 4/20-4/27. MERCY is on sale for 99c on Kindle, and it's a great time to grab it before I release MAGUS some time this year. This is likely the last sale before then! books2read.com/MercyNovel

Alasdair looked up at the unintelligible glimmer in the creature’s eyes. He observed the richness of his gleaming hair, the delicate ivory of his skin and the veins snaking beneath it, the lean cut of his body and the strange sharpness of his face, and realised he was beautiful. Terrible, but beautiful, like the inhospitable land that housed him. In the old days they would have raised great stones to him and painted them with blood. They would have carved his name in the trees and built effigies of him to burn and summon the summer. Alasdair’s bold arrow had struck him down, and the forest would swallow him for it. His limbs torn asunder by the reaching roots, the hollow of his bones burst thick with moss, his flesh rendered to nothing by the fallen leaves.

My dog's newest obsession is licking the kitchen floor and I think he does it more because I tell him to stop and he thinks there must be *something* tasty as a result, if only he could find it 😩

Formatting stuff done, map looks good, got a (mostly) final page count. Emails sent off. WOO. This afternoon I'm going to make time to focus on this chapter again.

Good progress on this chapter!! Very happy with how this is coming together. Pivoting a little to work on book formatting. I've been wanting to get this map into the book and I really need a final page count soon for my book cover designer for the dust jacket 😅

screenshot of a document that says: "Write the damn thing. If you are struggling to write "good stuff", don't worry about that. Get something on the page even if it is shitty. You can make it not shitty later. Shitty writing is better than none at all because you can't improve on prose that doesn't exist."
