My own book, Imbued, first in a dark fantasy duology, is also part of the #NarratessSale #indiebooks #fantasy 💙📚

Go to --> indiebook.sale

Get Imbued if you like a lush, tropical setting, scary but wondrous magic, spiralling anxious narration, and being sad & traumatized. 🫠✌️

books2read.com/imbued
The cover of Imbued by Helyna L. Clove is in the middle, a purple-green digital painting of a white calla lily surrounded with lush, leafy, thorny vegetation. The stalk of the flower is being pulled down towards the ground by magical golden strings. The trope map-like graphic has the following labels: - childhood trauma-induced amnesia - violent magic - VERY reluctant hero (crossed out) villain (crossed out) ??? - manipulation - telepathic flirting - failed magic experiments and dead gods - queernormative society - dreams & visions galore - demisex romance (slowburn no spice) - "I am a weapon." A promo image showing the cover of Imbued by Helyna L. Clove to the left, and a one-sentence pitch to the right. "A wounded woman with forbidden magic and missing memories must face the cruel origins of her violent powers as rebellion sweeps over her war-torn world." $0.99 On the bottom, the banner for the Narratess Indie Sale with dark blue and purple art of a dragon, skulls and gems and planets on starry background. The label is: Indie Book Sale Fantasy, Sci-fi, Horror 11-13 April indiebook.sale

Hey, friends, I need your help for a fellow indie author:

We're looking for someone who can provide a sensitivity read for a Mexican American character. The author wants general support in how the character and his family are portrayed in this contemporary romance. Paid, of course.

Thank you!
