Hi! Please read the short sample that I've published of my 95,000 word fantasy novel Rinascita. If you like it and would like to read more, please let me know in the comments.

Did I just update Whispers From The River for the first time since like... March? Yes. Yes I did
          
          I have tried and failed a hundred things this year to try to re-establish a writing routine. But I'm going to give NaNo a genuine try this year! I'm trying to kick my own ass into gear to give my ongoing stories the endings they deserve. I want to have Veriel and Whispers tucked in and sleeping soundly before I go full speed ahead with Hrefnir's series (which I am already writing bc i'm a mess xD)

What's that? I've emerged from the void with an update? :')
          
          Have chapter 8 of Veriel, in which Rikke learns exactly what's wrong with Titus Auranius, and there's a lady with chickens, and a set of off-putting triplets, and Marcus the guard is getting giddy with excitement for what's about to happen https://www.wattpad.com/1322547135-veriel-chapter-8

So sorry for the phantom notification about the Chainbreaker Short Story! I am not currently republishing Chainbreaker. I was re-reading that short and published it when I was done, out of habit :') And I didn't notice until much later haha. I'm so sorry to disappoint, but I am pleasantly surprised to see how many of you came to read it while it was here xD

I have found time and wrestled my perfectionism back down, and Chapter 9 of Whispers From The River is finally here! Silas explains a few things, Esther struggles with mom issues (but not ghost issues, tho she probably should), and this paranormal murder mystery solving duo is about to take shape <3 
          
          And the next chapter of Veriel is forthcoming

What's that? I *finally* buckled down and finished the 2nd bonus story for Serpentsbane? And you all get to see a VERY hefty story + look at Doranni lore and Doranni court? And how our princesses became who they are today? 
          
          This is a LONG one, but I hope you have fun with it! I've been waiting to share some of this worldbuilding for YEARS and the eagle-eyed among you might notice some very interesting easter eggs

Thank you for your follow!

My entry the Monstrous Love anthology is here! It's a love letter to Frankenstein and the Dullahan of Celtic myth, ft sassy child character and a gentle shot of spice. If any Bearheart fans here love Hala and Brynjolf, you'll probably love Faelan and Athrid too! <3 Link: https://www.wattpad.com/1303494187
          
          And definitely check out the other lovely stories in the anthology. Monster romance shorts of all kinds and all spice levels, releasing daily until Valentine's Day! And all will be available for listening on YouTube as well, courtesy of the talented @IAmRodneyVSmith
