Blood of My Heart is an epic fantasy with a romance subplot and a bit of spice. This is the first novel in a trilogy of gods, fae, and shifters reminiscent of FBAA, a killer FMC similar to Nevernight, and sorrowful undertones like To Bleed a Crystal Bloom.โฃ[๐ญ๐ก๐๐ซ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐จ๐จ๐ค ๐, ๐๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐ฅ๐จ๐ ๐ฒ ๐๐ฌ ๐ ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ข๐๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ฌ๐ฒ ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐, ๐๐ง๐๐ฆ๐ข๐๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฌ, ๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐๐จ๐จ๐ค ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐๐ฌ ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐๐ก]โฃ

And growing connections risk not only their lives, but their hearts too.โฃ

After my rewrite and a round of edits I managed to cut down the word count from 109k to 104k, which I didn't think was possible because I added a couple of chapters, but I am very happy with it so far and can't wait to see what my betas think!ย โฃ

Writer update for the new year!
I wanted to pop in and say hi! I hope everyone is enjoying their January. It's only five days into 2023 and I am already thrilled about what's happening. I am working on finishing up this round of self-edits as we speak, and then it's off to beta readers on the 14th! I have a mixture of fear and excitement to have people finally read this manuscript, but either way, I cannot wait!
I have been fighting my blurb for several months trying to get it right, but I am now dangerously close to being able to check that off my to-do list. And I will be happy to do so!
I have also picked an editor and will be booking for edits very soon. All in all, we can expect more information about the manuscript to be posted in the next few months! I cannot wait to share the title, blurb, and tropes!
So far, everything is behind the scenes. But here is what I can share:
-The manuscript is the first book in a trilogy and I plan for 6-8 months between releases if I can swing it. More to come about that later.
-The genre is Adult Dark Fantasy, with a romance subplot.
-It's currently around 110K words, for reference that is a couple chapters shy of Nevernight by Jay Kristoff or A Court of Thorns and Roses by SJM
-I hope to publish in the fall of this year!
That is all I have for now as far as updates. I plan to post here more often and hope to grow some friends along the way!
