Anhelos Lost ebook sale happens April 3 to 5!

Day 30: #MarchThrills
In Anhelos, Arctus has four provinces within the kingdom. Each province is controlled by a high level noble (usually connected to the Crown). For example, the Vracca family controls the Acton province (which is also the province the capital is in).
Day 29: #MarchThrills
Nymphs and other Benign races are actively trying to preserve the environment by sharing energy with the world of Ermina.
Some Ungovernable races understand and also want to work on fixing the natural world.
Day 29. Oddly Specific Sunday: Preseveration Efforts.
Anastasia wanted to preserve the Skeleton world as it was before it got taken over.

Day 28: #MarchThrills
In Ungovernables, there are several games that were inspired by the historical upheaval ignited by the human vs. non-human struggle.
Fearball has some ties to this as well.
Day 27. OTP Theme.
"As the moon started rising in the night sky, Charlotte left the coffee shop as they were closing, her laptop and folders full of paper in her bag, which was slung over her shoulder."

Day 27: #FantasyIndiesMarch #MarchThrills
I haven't done a check-in in a while. I have been working hard on marketing Anhelos Bound and finding time to write Ungovernables book 2.
My secret project is going well also 👀👀
Day 26: #MarchThrills
There are a lot of stars in Ermina's night sky but you rarely swe them in the cities (thanks light pollution).
There are designated dark parks where the only light allowed is firelight and even then most people choose to enjoy the darkness.
Day 25. One Line Wednesday.
"Then the original person who built it.... Had to of known wnat was beneath it."

Day 24: #MarchThrills
From Ungovernables book 2:
"I suppose he could be a mutt, but those are rare. Most races are incompatible with each other
and the ones that are compatible don’t typically intermix on that level."
Day 23: #MarchThrills
On Ermina, 100 years ago, Ungovernables were trying hard to live by the rules humans set out for them.
Benign populations were greater and listened to on both sides.
Humans were trying to control amd contain Ungovernables.

Mitchel killing the Grim Reaper and a new era of skeletons.

Day 21: #MarchThrills
Fearball has become a lot more accessible as technology got better and cheaper.
When the game was first created rather than the ball tapping into fears their used to be a person whose job it was to release scary (and dangerous) things onto the field.

Day 20: #MarchThrills
In Rylen’s case, this depends entirely on if you believe Kirin is alive...
If she is, than one could say he's been unfaithful...

Day 19: #MarchThrills
As a bit of a fun fact, one of Karya's favourite flowers is a camellia.
(This is one of those fun facts that have not made into the books. Maybe one day 🤣🤣)

From Anhelos Bound:
“You are a demon.” The priest, despite his imprisonment, spoke with conviction. “Worse, a Velryn. You are evil incarnate, and you will taint us all!”

Plenty of the battles that the rebellion won are lost records.

Day 16: #MarchThrills
In Anhelos Saga there are a lot of "lost" records. The current (and most problematic) is what happened to the Arcturian section of the Anhelos.
Given its mystical properties, and the power it offers its weilder, its absence poses a concerning problem 👀
