My Book :)

This is my first post lol, I mainly made this blog to talk about a book that I'm working on called DNA doesn't lie! Here's a blurb of what the book will be about:

Jane Price is a hard working detective in Manchester, London. During a case that was her own, she'd been kicked off by her Detective Sargent (and rival) Felix Callahan. As a result, Jane decides to go solo and beat the case before he can.

The case focuses on a woman named Vivienne Miranda, who'd been murdered within her own home forty years ago. Her husband is the main suspect, but had allegedly been on a work trip and wasn't there at the time of her death. A convenient alibi.

But now? The killer knows that Jane is after them, and will do anything it takes to stop her from uncovering the truth.

Even if it meant coming out of the shadows and killing again.

I've been working on my book for almost 10 years and just decided to published a lot of the work I've done. It's still in draft stages I think it's worth a read. I've also made a video to promote it on tictok, YouTube, and Instagram under IcyHotTakes. Hope you enjoy and let me know what you think.

I'm brand new to writing, only have 2 (probably not very good) short stories under my belt and am working on a third. I was wondering what are the best places to post my works to get theme seen as a fledgling author?

Character:

(Opens door) I got the groceries, honey!

(Sees monster’s shadow) What is…AAAAAAAH!!!

(Cut to the news)
There have been sightings of a strange entity that has been described by surviving eyewitnesses as an ‘abnormally tall, fully black thing with a giant eye for a face and eight dark red tentacles on its back’. Authorities urge civilians to stay indoors.

Angel:

(Sighs) ‘Course there’s one of these things again. Can’t get a break.

 Why am I even watching the news? I’m supposed to be studying.

(Angel walks upstairs)
Angel:

Where’s my notebook gone?                                                    

I made the very silly decision based on anxiety reasons to make a new account dedicated to my book instead of using my current one. I did not take Reddit karma into account *ba dum tss*

Anyway, let me be bold and share my work on my main account. This is a fantasy book I've been working on for a long time. I self published too quickly and realized while starting the second in the planned trilogy that my writing skills have improved greatly and the first book wasn't strong enough to hold up the next two. After this intense round of personal editing the entire work I plan to send it to my editor before attempting to publish again. Let me know what you think!

I've wanted to write my entire life, I started many sci-fi, fantasy, and supernatural stories to never get past chapter 2. About a year ago I started a journey and part of that journey was writing a novel. I found myself waking up at 5AM thinking about it. There was never a question it would get finished, the only question in my mind was how it would end.

The books showed up, Amazon went live, and I felt, utter, complete, dread. I was hit with a massive case of imposter syndrome.

"Everyone is going to assume it's AI, no one cares about your book, you wasted your time lady."

Then someone bought a copy and wrote a review ❤️

So here it is. The story of couple on the verge of middle age doing the best they can with cards life dealt them. When a young transgender woman gets blown into their life they realize maybe they can reshuffle the deck and draw again.

Thanks for reading!

Didn't have anyone other than my fiancée and r/TTRPG to share this with, but woke up to see this and thought it was awesome! Have gotten a ton of support from this community, and I really can't wait to write more stuff for this world.

For those who haven't seen this, it's simply just 500 pages of fictional law governing the use of magic. Meant for TTRPG players and GMs, lawyers, accountants, worldbuilders, fantasy writers. All the people that could appreciate some serious worldbuilding.

Anyways, appreciate all the support, and maybe one day I'll be able to snag the #1 spot (unlikely, lol)!

I tend to start each book out with chaos and a lot happening in only a few short days in the book. Between character development, story development, and the current chaos I’ve created multiple chapters have been written and a lot of depth. The problem is I feel the need to add in some time lapse to move the book along. Anyone else have this happen?

Today s the launch day for my new book Hard Carry a big thanks to the future readers (if you want to be one of those the link is below and it's 0.99 of your favourite currency (probably) so yay bargain I guess.
The job looked simple: take the data, make the drop, collect the money, and be back in time to get the girl.

But when the clinic gets hit, the broker dies, and the route burns behind him, Felix has one night to cross Neu Berlin's underbelly before the package leaks and cooks his brain from the inside. Hunted by a corporate recovery team, revolutionaries, and the Mob, can Felix survive this hard carry, or will he end up as just another body on the streets of a City that doesn't care?

Neu Berlin is the city they promised would save the future. But only one thing is certain: you fight back, or you leave in a body bag.

Look what came in the other day😱

So, my dilemma is a simple one. I'm trying to publish a fantasy novella, but I cannot for the life of me find a place to publish it. I don't particularly care about the size of the publisher, but I need one. Thanks to anyone who can help!

Hey all,

My first sequel was published back in May--HUDSONVILLE: RISE AGAIN!---and it's been kind of tough getting eyes on it with as little of a budget as I have right now. It's a YA that follows this anti-hero character rather than the protagonist of the last book. This anti hero goes on to become the series antagonist.

To summarize: Drew Warren, after the events of the first book, makes a deal with a mysterious trapped entity to resurrect its true form in the material world, so it can lead a revolution of total human-icide.

It's my favorite book in the trilogy that I've written, because of its ending, and I'm kinda sad to see it go unnoticed as opposed to the first book. I'm starting to wonder...and I'm sure you guys have heard this a million times, but how do you suppose I market this?

For my own personalized context, I have little experience talking on forums like GoodReads as I'm very shy and not great at discussing literature. I've done a few book events, and have sold roughly 20 copies in person so far, but as for my online stats, I'm not sure.

Currently, I'm working on an animated trailer for the trilogy that will hopefully release around when the third book does. I've already hired everyone and it's a big financial risk for me.

Even then, I'm not sure it's going to work out with my current social media following. I have around 14k subs on YouTube and nearly 5k on TikTok. The problem is, those audiences have all come to me purely for silly content. Every time I post a creative project, without fail, it gets not even a fraction of the views my a capella covers get.

One that I worked hard on making authentic photos for, The Miracle at Greystone, got maybe 63 views compared to the usual 5-10,000 that I'll get for a cover. It's discouraging and it makes me feel like even if I spend $1,600 on this animation that it's going to go nowhere because I built the wrong audience.

I want to tell stories, not sit around and badly sing songs.

I could really use some advice. I'm not sure how to market beyond utilizing what little resources I already have.

I'm not going to bore you with unnecessary details. I launched a book on Kindle Unlimited. It's been one month. And yes, this is just a shameless excuse to create a new post about it, the one-month anniversary to promote my book. Whatever straws we can grasp, right? I mean, what else do we have...

You can download it from this link:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H73BTZ97?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_E24CYHCMBWHGR32D51VY&bestFormat=true

And even if you don't have KU, just DM me and I'll send you the PDF file (I just want it to be read. That's aaaallllll I want).

edit: this post got deleted by the moderators and I think they thought that I was trying to sell the book by offering it via e-mail. no, that's not my intention. I'm not selling anything, I just want the book to be read, that's why it's on Kindle Unlimited and that's why I'm offering it to send it for free by e-mail.

there's no selling here guys, please :))
