Happy #PrideMonth ! The #SPFBO group has put together a collection of 48 books featuring queer rep of all kinds, across all years of SPFBO! Some have #LGBTQ main characters, while others (like mine) have side-character queer rep. Some are on sale, some are full price.
They are requiring that some people (not all, I guess, but I was one of them) enter their birthdate into their account info if they want to get paid. They're not sending out an email for this, I read about it on a FB group & went in to check my account & sure enough. 🤬 You have to click on Account, then you might see a message that there is a problem with your bank info.
Looking for more stories? These 53 #fantasy books are all EPICS—in fact, my husband said that By the Pact by @AuthorJMac reminded him of the epicness of Dune, so take that as you will! (My book Between Starfalls is in this collection, too, kicking off a Stone Age fantasy series).
Finished the final draft, sent out the files, and ordered copies of the hardcover and paperback. Release date is set for May 25, aka #GeekPrideDay (appropriate for a #superhero#novel launch, I think). The pre-order links to pretty much every major retailer are up and linked on my site, https://JeffreyHarlan.com
Now to play my favorite video games for the first time in 3 months.
Maybe you're looking for adventure instead? These 97 books are all FREE #FantasyAdventure books! I have two novellas and an epic fantasy book in this group, alongside authors like SG Prince and Paul Bennett.
Looking for some #romantasy ? These 27 books are all #FantasyRomance books with various levels of spice. (My book is part of this set, with low-spice and lots of adventure.)
The Softer Side
OMG I haven't drawn these two in so long I literally had to reference Steve's cybernetic legs from my character sheet. O_O The softer side of Steve here... and it's all due to Maribel's influence! #spiderforest#webcomics#indieauthors#amwriting#novels

Leider habe ich es weder zur #LBM geschafft, noch rechtzeitig etwas für die #BuchmesseZuHause vorbereitet, weil ... Leben eben. 🤷♀️
Deshalb für alle, die mich nicht kennen, eine Kurzvorstellung: Ich bin Nike Leonhard und ich mache #Bücher. Meine Nische ist fantastische Kurzprosa, d. h. Erzählungen, Novellen und Kurzgeschichten quer (und manchmal queer) durch alle Subgenres der Fantastik.

Liebe Selfpublishing-Bubble: Wo veröffentlicht ihr eure Bücher und warum?
Und für den Buchsatz nutzt ihr SPBuchsatz, richtig?
Ich würde gern ein Stimmungsbild haben, bevor ich mich an die Recherche mache (und endlich die beiden Bücher veröffentliche, die ich schon lange plane!).
Do yourselves a good turn and make sure to follow Author Beware by @victoriastrauss
The most recent post is about #CityOwlPress, but there's wisdom that applies to all small presses:
"there is a kind of alchemical process where long-standing strains and stresses within a publisher...abruptly reach critical mass and boil to the surface in the form of a rush of complaints."
It's "read an ebook week" on smashwords, during which both my books -- the high tech sci-fi adventure "The Ein Particle" and the collection of novelettes "Isolated Futures: Omnibus" -- are 50% off until the end of the week.
I urge you to subscribe to @victoriastrauss's Writer Beware blog, so that you can keep abreast of all sort of maters essential to your careers. Primer example: the recent TOS changes at FindwayVoices/Spotify:
Move over, romance. February is for the power of FRIENDSHIP! The February is for Friendship promo has 45 fantasy or sci-fi books featuring strong friendship/found family vibes.
