Happy (Almost) 6 Month Anniversary to The Fey Hotel!

Vermilion Baine

Hello, readers! On July 14th, 2024, it will be the six month anniversary of publishing my debut novel, The Fey Hotel! To celebrate, I’ll be running a sale on Amazon (US and UK) on the ebook! If you want to snag the $0.99 ebook or share the sale (which I would really appreciate), I’ll include the link. This is my first sale EVER so grab it while you can! Sale will run July 14-17th, 2024. I will send a newsletter reminder of the sale on July 14th. The Fey Hotel Amazon Ebook

Also on July 14th, I planned to share the cover of The Academy of the Dead. The illustration is so close to being completed, but I may miss the mark. Hopefully, I will get the illustration Saturday and we’ll be able to run the cover reveal on time. I will say though, that I think it’s my best cover yet!

ARC Signups and More!

Good afternoon, everyone! A few updates-the first draft of the Academy of the Dead is completed! We are looking at a publication date of October 11th, 2024. You can sign up for the ARC team and the Cover Reveal team now! Our double cover reveal will by July 14th!

ARC TEAM SIGN UP

If you signed up for my permanent ARC team, you don’t need to sign up separately for The Academy of the Dead, but the form includes content warnings if you wish to see those. If the warnings are something you don’t vibe with, no worries! If you decide not to read (for ANY reason), I won’t remove you from the permanent team and there’s no need to give me a heads up. Every book is different, schedules change, and I don’t want anyone feeling like they HAVE to read. ARCs will release around September.

My ETSY shop has been restocked with hardcover editions of The Fey Hotel! The new art print of Elden is included with the signed editions.

My personal updates! My husband took a 3 week trip out of the US and is back! He booked us a stay at a resort on his return, which was a complete surprise! We enjoyed a pool with a waterfall, some good food, and peace and quiet. We are also starting to work on my home office. We have the goods to start the electrical work, and I’ve ordered a standing desk. I’ll share updates of the office as we go.

Preorder Link:

The Thyssian Archipelago rose from the deep as six treacherous islands. Islands that were forged from stone and sand, with kings and conquerors alike. Long ago, the gods gave each kingdom a relic to protect. In return, their peoples would remain safe from the servants of the Void. Years bled into centuries as their respect rotted into complacency. Thyssia, the mother island, sheltered three kingdoms on its soil as it reached across the sea. In the east, Trejen’s forests neatly encircled the verdant meadows while new trees crept closer each spring. Cerulean river lands carved through the island under the watchful eyes of house Spessia and everyone drank from its meandering depths. All of this was overshadowed by a solitary broken mountain. Their people’s separation from the gods fractured its stony face into a chasm, a wound that released any magic the mountain held within its stone. Their relic was ruined by abomination in the wake of Haydrian’s touch. Haydrian, an alchemist who relished in the hope of immortality. As the kingdoms of Thyssia disregarded their duty to the nine, so waned their fear of the Void.
