Draft2Digital have decided to fuck small authors so I’ve made the decision to pull Reckless Truth from their platform
Unfortunately this means my book is no longer available on most platforms including Amazon and Kobo, but fortunately this has been the wake-up call I need to learn that “free” ISBNs are not worth the trouble.
That means that when I eventually distribute my ebook wide again it’ll be more in my control because I’ll have invested in an ISBN that is actually Mine! It may, however, take a minute because ISBNs are uhhhhh Not Cheap.
For now, you can still get my book in paperback on the Great British Bookshop and in ebook format on my Ko-Fi!

Reformat of Reckless Truth is almost done!!!! Just need to tweak a few small issues and I'm ready to go skjfghsf
I know it’s not a dramatic change but I’m just so happy to finally have it be the dimensions I want and also not look Very Obviously like baby’s first publishing project inside 😭
I'm also consolidating my publishing to BookVault which will hopefully give me a more central and easy to manage distribution!
"What I need," she huffed, waving the barmaid over again, "is three more drinks, and to get laid."
Erik's smile only grew wider then, gaining a cheeky edge as she ordered them both another round, "...I can help with that~"

About The Truth Saga
Children go missing all the time. That's what they're told. They run away, they're kidnapped, they die. Scattered throughout Scotland, a handful of families remember the truth of what happened to their families.

Twenty years after the first incidents, the disappearences are happening again. The missing children are adults now, and reconnecting with the people they lost, but everything has changed. There is something sinister casting its shadow over their heads, and now they must fight to return the light to their lives. To learn to love and laugh and carry on living -- while the truth of their history threatens to destroy them.
Combining science fantasy with interpersonal drama, The Truth Saga is an ongoing series following themes of love, family and grief wrapped in a bundle of supernatural mystery and violence. Step into the Controller's world and you may never turn back...

Happy romance week! I thought I'd celebrate some of the couples in my books so far <3
Lydia and Tori meet in book 1 of Reckless Truth and quickly orbited around one another. Lydia admired Tori's softness despite her trauma (and the fact that she could absolutely tear someone in half if she wanted to) and Tori admired the depth and passion of Lydia's protective nature. They are sickeningly sweet and I can't wait to give them some more spotlight later in the series

[IMAGE DESCRIPTION]
A casting announcement. The background is a sunset with the silhouette of a woman on the right hand side, partially cut off.
To the left of the image is a smaller image of a nonbinary person with blond, swept-back hair, white skin and round glasses. They are looking intensely into the camera with their chin resting casually on their hand.
White text underneath the image reads "Cassandra Haswell as Narrator".
On the right hand side of the image in bold white text with a shadow is "Reckless Truth". Underneath it in smaller block capitals is "Audio Book". Underneath that is orange text surrounded by an orange border, reading "Coming est. winter 2024"
Finally confident enough in my artistic ability to draw proper character portraits for the Truth Saga, to replace the old artbreeder portraits I made before AI became A Problem
First up:
The Moores
Lydia and Elyan Moore, to be precise. These two play a prominent role in the Truth Saga and especially Reckless Truth as the audience surrogates, introducing us to the twisted world of the Controller through the eyes of those who were left behind.
This sibling duo are the catalyst for the entire series and will play an important role in the lives of the other characters throughout, so it only makes sense to draw them first <3
