Pre-orders are one of very best ways you can support an author...and it just so happens that for 3 days only, B&N is offering 25% off all pre-orders! Might I suggest taking this opportunity to give Future You the gift of a temperamental skeleton-rabbit, a drowned faeryland, and two girls in love?

Blue graphic that reads,
“25% off at Barnes & Noble!
code: PREORDER25"
&
“3/24-3/26 only!”
along with an image of the cover of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter.  The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward.  One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage.  The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal.  In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit.  Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines.  Very moody and atmospheric.  The book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.
Beside the cover, text reads, “Hayao Miyazaki meets Guillermo del Toro in this Sapphic YA fantasy in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faery realm.”

Today is cover reveal day for THE BONE BRIDES, and I am vibrating like a star in the sky! Not in my wildest imaginings did I ever think I would have a cover this beautiful. THE BONE BRIDES comes out Sept 29th---with exquisite spredges exclusive to the first edition! Pre-order links in bio!

Blue graphic with glowing yellow text that reads, “COVER REVEAL!” and credits art to Marcela Bolívar and design to Caitlyn Boyd.  The cover revealed is that of THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter.  The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward.  One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage.  The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal.  In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit.  Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines.  Very moody and atmospheric.  The graphic also shows that the book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.Blue graphic (with the book’s cover watermarked beneath) that reads, “About the Book” followed by the tagline, “Hayao Miyazaki meets Guillermo del Toro in this Sapphic YA portal fantasy in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faery realm,” and the synopsis: “Nola James can handle it. She can handle that her father is dead. She can handle that her friends, bored with her grief, left her behind. Nola James has to handle it because Lumi―the love of her life and a faery changeling―is in danger. Not only is Lumi's human mother trying to kill her, but she’s being hunted by veiled monsters that want to return her to the fae. Hiding out in an abandoned cabin with only a skeleton-rabbit for company is hard, but Nola can handle it. And she does.

Until Lumi is abducted.

In order to save her, Nola must enter the faery realm: a boggy world in which eyeless horses parade as brides, ghost-bees produce transformative honey, and skeletons dance in skin-colored cloaks. Aided by a witch-girl with uncertain motives, Nola uncovers the realm’s terrifying power over changelings. Unless Nola can outplay an abyssal faery queen and find the courage to let the world see her own pain, Lumi will be trapped―not only in faeryland but in a skin that’s not her own.”  Finally, the graphic lists the book’s publication date as September 29t, 2026.Trope map graphic for THE BONE BRIDES that includes, “queer girls in love”; “are skeleton rabbits cute?”; “portal fantasy”; “mental illness rep”; “don’t look up”; and “haunted figs.”  It also includes the book’s publication date of September 29, 2026.

Heads up #amquerying: I will be open to queries from *October 12-19*, or until I reach 500 queries. I am just about through the 500 queries I received in June - it has taken me 4 months due to health, working 3-3.5 jobs and making sure I have some balance remaining. Thanks for understanding!

In advance of reopening to queries on *June 13* to marginalized creators, I have updated my Manuscript Wishlist on my website. Most of my wishlist remains perennially true, but I wanted to pull out some things I'm especially excited to see right now: #mswl #amquerying #amwriting #writingcommunity

“I bought another book” -transactional -people will ask if you REALLY need another book -reminds you of your sad bank balance “I have paid a terrible price for this knowledge” -intimidating -classy Faustian vibes -implies that all books are priceless treasures. Which they are

Look I just want you all to know that if you need to take some time for yourself, turn off your phone and barricade yourself into a labyrinth of books from whence you shall emerge only once every 1000 years to wreak havoc on the realms of men, that's perfectly natural ok

I often say “I look forward to seeing your book on the shelves” in my passes for the exact reason @literaticat.bsky.social said! There are so many fantastic mss I see but my time is limited. 😭 I say that in my note because I want those writers to keep trying because their story is good!

If you're a writer, are you following @literaticat.bsky.social's Ask The Agent on Tumblr? Freaking brilliant, always, but this one on form rejections is a balm against the sting. literaticat.tumblr.com/post/7740312....
