Le’hasa!
Welcome back to Argren – the kick-ass fantasy series about witches and rebels who take on an evil oligarchy.
What we’re writing
Oss’stera is out and the reviews have been great. We would love to know which FB ad images and text are more compelling – feel free to be honest, because bad ads cost as much money as good ones, so we’d rather know. If you have a favorite quote from this book (or any other book in the series) or a phrase you use when explaining to friends why you love the series, pass it along and we will use it in a FB ad, attributed to you! Just email author@rosshightower.com or quizzicalllc@gmail.com with your ideas.
Fans of Tove fear not! Ross is almost finished with the first draft of Murtair, the follow up to Desulti. If you want to be one of our advanced readers, email Deb at quizzicalllc@gmail.com and we will get a copy to you as soon as it is ready.
What we’re reading
Fall - short days, longer nights, cooler temperatures – is a great time to work through your TBR pile, so you can add more books! Here are some books and short stories we have been reading.
Our Firkins and Fantasy Book club book is Uprooted by Naomi Novik. Haven't started it yet, but so far all the books our group has chosen have been great.
Looking for some witchy books for the spooky season? Check out stories of magical women, covens, curses, secrets, spells and worlds that transport.
Another list of magical books: “Rise of Magic”. Check it out!
And finally, Moonbeam, a short story from Bruno Martins Soares, “a tale about a sword fit for the gods”. Free download on any of your reading platforms.
Why we love Milwaukee
Oh my goodness, Argren Faire was such an event! We had over 5000 ren faire attendees of all stripes. To see all the pix and videos posted for the day, check out the FB and Instagram feeds.
We love our beer in Milwaukee and we love to read. So of course our book fairs are held at breweries. Ross and Deb will be at MKE Books and Beers on Sunday October 18th. If you’re in town come say hello!
And’sutra!
