    I am a fan of The Dresden Files. If you’re not familiar, it’s a series of 18 books written by Jim Butcher. The first book was published 26 years ago. In the books, you dive into the world of Harry Dresden, a private investigator in Chicago. Add in a bit of a noir atmosphere, good humor, and a bit of a buddy cop feel at times thanks to Harry’s consulting work with Karrin Murphy, police officer at Chicago PD. You get the idea. Oh, and I forgot a tiny detail: Harry is a wizard! In this world, vampires, werewolves, and fairies are real. Harry Dresden is listed in the Chicago phone book:HARRY DRESDEN — WIZARDLost Items Found. Paranormal Investigations.Consulting. Advice. Reasonable Rates.No Love Potions, Endless Purses, Parties or Other EntertainmentI personally discovered the series 3 years ago via the audiobooks. I listened to the 4 first books and was hooked. It helped that the audiobooks were narrated by James Marsters (yes, Spike from Buffy!). He is a great narrator and his voice work was a perfect match for the series.Fast forward to today, Twelve Months, the 18th book in the series just landed on my Kindle. You can order yours from the author’s store here.Time to get back into the story! It’s been a while since the last book though, so I put together a refresher (thank you Claude) that I sent to my Kindle. I’ll read it, as well as the last few chapters of the last book, to get ready before to start the new book.If you could use a refresher too, feel free to download the PDF below.The Dresden Files: Series Summary (Books 1-17) — A comprehensive recap to prepare you for Book 18Download

    Need some help making a decision.I'm putting together a saucy romance with two complimentary POV's. With the understanding that this is all very subjective, what kinds of perspective would you find most interesting?The story is novella length at 35-40K words, is very character-based and delves into the characters' memories and dreams fairly often. The mixed option would have dream and memory sequences in present and actual events in past.Boost for reach#Writing #reading #Books #romance

    Yesterday, I teased good news. So today, here it is.From now until the end of the year (midnight EST on 12/31), I have marked down my books by 26% on Rakuten Kobo. Now you too can read the first two books of the Arcane Revolution trilogy, completely free of DRM, on the e-reader of your choosing.The books are pulpy thriller-esque urban fantasy adventures pitting a veteran homicide investigator against a shadowy government spook for no lesser stakes than the ongoing freedom of humanity. In a nation still scarred by magical terrorism a decade previous, Agency Division is losing its ability to keep magic secret and controlled.This is merely the first component of today's good news. If this sale goes well for me, it will help with the second piece. More to follow later in the day.#books #selfpromo #indyauthor #pleaseboost
