Well, my final day of Self-published Authors Appreciation Week didn't go as planned. An emergency popped up. However:

THANK YOU to the self-published who put so much of yourselves into sharing your stories. I'm in awe of all you accomplish.

It's #SelfPublishedAuthorsAppreciationWeek (or #SPAAW!) and I'm a self-published author! I have six books out, a fantasy serial, and some short stories!! My most recent book is Errant Wings, about a punk who gets angel wings and problems.

Consider checking out all my books! 🌻
sjean.carrd.co#books
An ad for the book, Errant Wings by S. Jean which is out now. The background is a narrow street in autumn and atop it is a dark brown transparent band containing a physical copy of Errant Wings and an ebook version as shown on a small phone. To the left of the book is a short description. It reads: "Asher has his entire life planned around the coming of his devil wings. They mean freedom from the city's expectations and he'll get to continue what he's already good at: graffiti art and loving his boyfriend. Except then angel wings sproud from his back. Now the city expects his complete devotion--no room for anything else--and that's the last thing they'll ever get from him." Below that is more text detailing where you can get the ebook or paperback and the url. The url reads: "books.earlronove.com/errantwings"

Hopping into #SelfPublishedAuthorsAppreciationWeek at the tail end of it, but hi! I'm a bi+ace Canadian author of scifi + fantasy + post-apoc stories that usually contain some element of body horror, hurt/comfort, and found family.

My books are available on amzn & itchio.
linktr.ee/brittanymwillows
A promotional graphic featuring 3D mock-ups of Bloody Spade and Bleeding Heart's, surrounded by a list of tropes/themes that appear in the Cardplay Duology. Text reads: Abundant hurt/comfort, inky body horror, hot-tempered fire wielder, bird girl with plant magic, a celestial deity with a penchant for murder, a budding QPR, returned magic, slow-burn romantic subplot, asexual panic, monsters born from malice, softhearted scythe-wielding girl, snarky cat-eared thief. Bloody Spade's cover depicts a black silhouette of a short-haired cat-eared boy with a glowing purple spade in front of him. Bleeding Heart's depicts a white silhouette of a girl with deer antlers and long flowing hair with a glowing heart in front of her. A wide poster featuring multiple characters against a sky backdrop split by a gleaming tower. Black tendrils of ink reach for one side of the tower, threads of light sweep from the other. On the lighter dawn-colored side we have the stoic-looking headmasters Hikaru & Elizabeth in the background, and a concerned Ellen and ferocious pistol-wielding Alexander in front. On the darker, ominous side, also dotted by bulging blue eyeballs, we have a smug Wiseman and a widely-grinning Kane in the background, and vaguely conflicted Cardan clutching a handful of forget-me-not flowers and forlorn winged Kyani in front. Centered in the middleground is Iori wearing a distant expression, ink pouring from his purple-glowing right eye and out from under the hand on his chest. A light cuts diagonally across the image, painting the characters in varying degrees of light and shadow. A promotional graphic featuring THE HOWLING DARK's concept cover against a blurry photo of mountains, surrounded by a list of some tropes/themes that appear in the book. Text reads: Eclipse-born werewolf (i.e, special in fucked-up and beautiful ways); post-nuclear Earth-like setting; were-caracal bounty hunter; fugitive werewolf brother; a dash of M/M spice and romance; messy, messy relationships; corrupt space government; Brother Bear x Wolf's Rain; doomed siblings; ragtag rebels; elements of botanical horror. Cover depicts a young man with soft features in a fur-lined hooded jacket holding a spear, peering through leafless tree branches. A sketch of my character Sylvain looking feverish and delirious with blue-purple-red flowers around him. He has long wavy hair, white on one side and black on the other. His right eye is blue, left is brown. He has a cut over his left eye.
