Hello!
It's hard to believe, but I am almost 5 years into my publishing journey. My first book came out at the beginning of June way back in 2020. Since then I've learned a lot about my writing style and marketing. I'm not always perfect at the latter, but I'll get there eventually.
With marketing and image in mind, I've decided to do an overhaul and change my branding. Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere or doing anything too drastic. I've just decided to make my authoring look more like me. Gone will be the 'stiff professional' imagery in favor of showcasing better what I enjoy and love.
What do you think? Cute right? Here's a little background on how I came up with the new logo. I love cats and reading and decided to add those elements. I've got a fairy and satellite that represent that I write and read in fantasy and sci-fi. And the cat? It's Frodo who sadly is no longer with us. He would always sit with me while I wrote. Our baby is sorely missed but we'll see him again.
That's not all that's changed. I'm going to be better about showing what I write and what readers can expect.
"Why write one type of story when you can write them all!" is my new tagline. It describes my writing the best. While I stick to fantasy and sci-fi, there's a wide range of sub-genres within both of them. I want the freedom to write whatever I want. It's the main reason I decided to self publish in the first place and continue doing so.
To make a long story short (too late) my branding is getting a facelift and I'll be more open about what you can expect. I hope you'll continue to stick around for my authoring journey as I have many more ideas in store.
Happy reading!
