GRIM PORTENTS HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE X CONSTANTINE A man is murdered by a hell-beast on his wedding day. Now, with the help of the reaper who collected his soul, he must uncover who is releasing monsters from Hell if he wants to return to the life he was robbed of. 👻 #SP #F #H #PN #OWN #GhostPit

Grim Portents cover featuring a skeleton hand holding a feather and emerging from an open book. The title is on a burning banner that envelops the feather and a large beast looms over it all. At the top, the tagline reads: Welcome to the first day of the end of your life…"I HAD ALWAYS TOLD MYSELF IT WAS A FIGMENT OF MY IMAGINATION, THE MIND PLAYING TRICKS. IT WAS JUST A SHADOW. BUT NOW THE MONSTER HAD BEEN GIVEN A NAME, AN IDENTITY. IT WAS REAL." Bill Baker wants nothing more than to marry the woman he loves, but when his wedding is interrupted by a rampaging hell-beast, his life is thrown into disarray. Desperate for a second chance, he will do anything to set his future back on track. Now, with the help of a soul-collecting reaper named Sonny, he must uncover who is releasing monsters from Hell, in order to earn back the life that was stolen from him and prevent the oncoming end of days. Faced with the choice between what is right and what is easy, Bill may have to sacrifice all he holds dear for one last shot at life.Black and white sketch of characters Bill and Sonny. Bill is a dark featured man in a suit and kind of a Mark Ruffalo vibe. Sonny is a rotting corpse man with a cardigan. Ad for Grim Portents, featuring a print copy of the book and an ebook on an iPhone. A QR code that takes you to my website and the words “Scan to learn more about debut paranormal fantasy novel Grim Portents” below it. Under that, it says “Available online anywhere books are sold!” And above it all is the tagline “Welcome to the first day of the end of your life”

Here’s a silly screenshot of me trying to explain COME BACK WRONG, my upper YA suburban fantasy-horror novel, to a friend on Discord. If you’re into David Lynch, this book may be for you! Querying soon, pitch linked in the QRT below. 🦇🏠🔮🛹 #PitDark #GhostPit #PN #MR #writingcommunity

screenshot of a discord chat reads: “What is COME BACK WRONG about? It’s about the domestic space as nexus of incredible trauma and incredible power. What if your whole town was a haunted house? What if your repressed childhood memories opened a rift into another version of reality? What if you could do a kick flip?”

ADULT SIX OF CROWS WITH GHOSTS Jack’s sworn to protect the dead, so when a book on harvesting magic from ghosts falls into the wrong hands, he’ll stop at nothing to steal it back. His crew has a few more scruples. The masked serial killer offering to partner up? Less so. #GhostPit #F #A #Q
