H. (toastandtea2) I really enjoy supporting indie writers. But do not stalk me or I will eat you.

I'd love to read your book if it's/it has :
- gay ladies in a fantasy/urban fantasy setting, Big plus if one of them is a werewolf or something.
- southern gothic. Love those like creepy backwoods town kind of story with cults or murder or whatever.
- cryptids - if your story includes Bigfoot or Mothman, count me in!
- aliens, ghosts, werewolves, demons, shapeshifters
- urban fantasy in general I'm there (but no abusive heroes)
- middle grade or YA with horror/urban fantasy/paranormal themes.
- horror/folk horror
- witches
- disabled characters, especially female.
- an agendered character. Need more representation.
- occult detective


No:
- F/F contemporary romance
- any contemporary romance or chick lit unless maybe it's set in a bookshop.
- vampires, but it depends. the UF genre seems over saturated with vamps and as much as I love True Blood, I like more creative creatures?
- Anything super cutesy.
- Rapey mcGee heroes.
- contemporary YA
- cat death
- abuse of disabled

Edit: please do not stalk me or contact me about a book that's way way outside my genre preferences.

Linnea (literalgrill) | 11 comments I see you like witches... So What Makes a Witch might be perfect for you! It's being released on August 18th and I'm planning to get ARCs for it out then. It's a 50 page novella so not a super long read.

A young rat named Greer is kicked out from his home and isn't able to survive alone on the streets.With nowhere else to turn, he heads into the forest to seek the help of a witch exiled by the Grand Coven. Despite only women being able to control the magical energies of this world, Greer still finds himself becoming a witch's apprentice. What will Greer learn about magic, found family, and most importantly himself? You can find out by reading What Makes A Witch!

Let me know if you'd be interested, I'd love to get you set up with an ARC when the time comes!

Tony G. (cityfeller) | 1 comments Greetings, Mossy,

Please review my as-yet unpublished first novel, On the Steps of St. Dymphna. You'll find an advance review copy at this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J...

Here is all the pertinent info:

Author: Tony G. Rocco
Genre: Urban Fantasy/Magic Realism
Length: 60,000+ words
Publication Date: September 14, 2020 on Amazon

Synopsis:
On the Steps of St. Dymphna tells a story of transformation. John, a normal cubicle slave with a bland and ordinary life, is transformed by an enlightenment experience. Or, did he just go crazy? He’s not really sure, but either way, he becomes a dramatically different person.

From bored support representative at GMC Megatronics, he transforms himself into Pastor John, a flamboyant free spirit spouting spiritual nostrums and intent on not only radically transforming his own life, but bringing joy and purpose to the lives of others.

To this end, he joins forces with a rag-tag group of homeless and starts The New Life Church of the Godhead of the Bed, so named for the locus of his awakening — an ordinary bed.

John and his following set their sights on St. Dymphna’s House of Hope, a local sanitarium run by the authoritarian Big Mama, where they attempt to help the needy and comfort the afflicted. They face numerous obstacles that threaten to derail their mission, but with the help of a local religious radio station and a large group of feisty supporters, they persevere and ultimately triumph. For a while.

Steps explores the emptiness of modern life and the desperate lengths necessary to live a life of purpose. It deals with themes of spirituality, alienation, faith and compassion. It is truly a tale for modern times.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Best wishes,

Tony
