Witches of Welkin: Publishing Update & Book Description

If you’ve read any of my posts from the last couple of months, you’ll know that I’m in the process of self-publishing the first book in my New Adult LGBTQ+ Witch Fantasy series, Witches of Welkin.

Progress has been a bit slower than anticipated, but I’m shooting to release all three formats (eBook, paperback, & hardback) in Spring 2023!

I’ve decided to take the soft launch approach as suggested by Dan Parsons and Melissa Addey on the Beginner Self-Publishing Advice Podcast. If you’re new to self-publishing, I highly recommend you listen to their episode on soft launching.

Currently, I’m finishing formatting the eBook and will post an announcement once it’s available on Amazon within the next few weeks. I’m also looking into other eBook distributors in the hopes of reaching a wider audience.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

With the eBook dropping soon, I’m finally ready to share the full description of Witches of Welkin.

Sybil prefers managing the vacant library over mingling with the buzzing witches that inhabit Welkin—an island hidden among the clouds. On the night of the Summer Solstice Celebration, her outlook on life and magic is forever changed when she meets Ophelia, an effervescent light witch who drags her to a mysterious spirit gathering. Ophelia offers to help Sybil improve her magical skills, and together, they must combat complacent councilwitches, confront their problematic pasts, and uncover the secrets of Welkin to stop its literal downfall.

If the description intrigued you, I hope you’ll consider checking out Witches of Welkin once it’s available on Amazon (other distributors TBD).
