[Author Yōko Ogawa @authoryokoogawa]

Like a memory resurfacing after a long silence, I am happy to find my way back here. I have spent my time away with the rhythm of my pen and the quiet of new stories. It is a joy to reconnect.😊

What has been capturing your heart while I was away?

@MillenStaples It'd be awesome if you followed us back so we can chat more in the DMs and maybe explore some collabs or recommendations. Looking forward to hearing about The 40th Day too! 📖

@MillenStaples Hey @MillenStaples ! We're Dive Bar Book Club, an organization dedicated to books, indie authors, and building community around great stories. Love the tropes you're into, second chances, elemental magic, and found family all sound right up our alley!

@SamM_Wright90 As a fellow lover of gritty, character-driven dark fantasy, this hits right in the feels! The cover already screams epic loyalty mixed with impending tragedy, knight and steed against a ruined world is such a classic yet underused duo.

@Syla_Fox English: where ‘behave’ becomes a philosophical crisis at age 3 😂
Your son was basically speedrunning auxiliary verb drama. I just gave you a follow, would love it if you followed me back.

@ABTimothyAuthor I just have you a follow, would love it if you followed back?

[Dive Bar Book Club @DiveBarBooks687]

@ABTimothyAuthor You've clearly put in the work (dozens of Arthurian books is nothing to sneeze at), and honestly? Readers care way more about a gripping story than whether someone has a PhD in Mallory. Keep swinging that sword, your book's gonna find its people. We've got your back over here.

@authorali1 It can definitely be tricky. I’ve helped a few authors navigate this, so feel free to message me if you’d like, happy to share some helpful pointers 😊

The Warrior by T.J. Erisman is a gripping fusion of political tension and spiritual conflict, where unseen forces shape both destiny and survival. A suspenseful and meaningful story that goes beyond the battlefield.

@CollettWriter @LGraynoble @NicoleCWriter @IceView_Nine Hi Caroline! Thank you so much for letting me know.
I’m currently having some issues with my Facebook account, so it’s being managed by the Dive Bar Media team at the moment.
Would it be okay if we continue the conversation via email instead? That would be much smoother for me.

[Dive Bar Book Club @DiveBarBooks687]

We’re proud to highlight the amazing authors featured with us this year.
Thank you for trusting us with your work and being part of our reading community 📖
