So this has been probably one of my most productive years creatively in a long time. Back in January I published my first novel, The Witch and the Rose, and followed it up in June with a sequel, Bloody Damn Rite. Well, today I'm excited to officially announce the third book in the series, Shadowcasting, will be available on 12/15/2024! Like the earlier books in the series, you can pre-order the book on Kindle immediately, and it will arrive on your device December 15th ready to go.
Honestly, I'm super excited about this one. It's probably my favorite book in the series, and I can't wait for you guys to get your hands on it. Here's the back of cover synopsis:
Winter has clawed its way into the heart of Parrish Mills, and something far darker may have come with it. When Mia Graves, a witch with a habit of getting into trouble, and her best friend Riley Whittaker stumble across a grisly scene along the Wabash River, they find it reeks of dark, forbidden magic and has left at least one charred body in its wake.
With the help of young Bobbi Crawford, the further Mia and Riley dig into the events that took place on that cold Indiana morning, the more dire their circumstances reveal themselves to be. Between a stolen grimoire and a group of young witches who may not know how dangerous their actions are, shadows loom in the dark of winter.
And one of those shadows may be more dangerous than anyone imagined.
(Also, and this is unrelated, the non-Kindle, DRM free ePub version of Bloody Damn Rite is now available in my Patreon store too)
Wait who…. Looks up Crazy Paul…..
oh wow him, wonder if Josh really works here
*Archive dives the character tag*
Oh, that guy. Wonder if he talked to “Josh” again this time.
Nah, he talked with Terrance. It’s all good.
Also, the comic needs more of Antioch Blunderbus, just for the name.
He is going to get ejected from the con. I just know it.
I took Crazy paul seriously for a moment. Everything on Sarah’s table looks to be backdrop. The sight lines to Paul’s table don’t appear to be blocked.
Undoubtedly Sarah did not look up the con rules for what was an acceptable table and what wasn’t but being eye-catching can’t be against those rules.
I will say her table set up is NOT meant to be backdrop. Her cages are on the table, with a window she and Ruth can be seen through.
It’s a fairly typical setup though.
Cool, I did interperet her setup correctly. Typical, and not blocking sightlines to his table, unless you’re standing at the end of Sarah’s table, trying to look through her setup.
My 2 cents having run dealers rooms, and as feeelthy merchant scum who owns Stupid Amounts of gridwall.
Well, I do have to agree with him, setting up a display that blocks off other booths -is- pretty rude… but I don’t think that’s being done here. Do sorta wonder who he talked to, or thinks he talked to, this time.
Other Josh.
Ahh yes. This.
As Dealers Room head, I’ve seen this exact complaint be made (Though more gracefully) , and folsk have made seating requests to be sat next to people with less ornate displays. I can understand this, but people going vertical before or behind the table is also entirely reasonable. We have rules in our Artists Alley about display height, but in our dealers Room.. well, until you touch the ceiling, you can go high.
I’ve also seen *Guests Of Honor* have setups as terrible as Paul’s and I wanted to weep. People do pay attention to your storefront, and while you don’t have to go elaborate, boy can a good tablecloth and some verticality help, especially when you’re trying to do a lot with a narrow space.
