✨ COVER REVEAL ✨

Beckoning of the Gate re-releases 31 Oct 2025! 🗝️🔥

The design hasn’t changed much (I’ve always loved it), but I’ve rebranded for continuity as I go fully indie. So excited to share Santha’s journey with you all again.

Book 2 of The Vāyilian Threads is now with the editor.

I cut it from 210k to 150k before sending it off. Brutal, but worth it.

More on Book 1, Beckoning of the Gate, soon.

@Mark__Lawrence Is it possible to resubmit a book from a previous year if it's a second edition?

[FletchGod Apocalypse @FletcherMR]

Day 4,563 of being a published author
15 published novels
2 novellas
1 short story collection
3 more novels to be released in 2026

Fame and fortune continue to evade me.

Beginning to think this might not be as easy as I originally believed.

All this to say: GO BUY DOGGED!

[Mark Lawrence @Mark__Lawrence]

Set a thief to catch a thief. Set a monster to punish monsters.

The Academy of Kindness exists to create agents of retribution, cast in the image of the Furies—known as the kindly ones—against whom even the gods hesitate to stand.

26 books for 2026 🌟 very ambitious but i'm excited to read each of these books

📚 Owned But Haven’t Read 🫢

I’m the world slowest reader (and I’ll fight anyone for that title) so it’s no surprise that I have lots of books that have yet to be read.

While I promise I’ll eventually get to them, in the meantime they look amazing as trophies on my shelf.

Do you visualize everything while reading a book? As if you are watching a movie?

Sometimes I stare at it and can't believe my eyes.
I did this.
It's real.
And it seems that people like it.

[Benjamin J. Ryan @Fallowblade777]

Early reviews are in. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Readers call Beckoning of the Gate “beautifully crafted,” “emotional,” and “gut-punching.”

A dark fae fantasy of resilience, sacrifice, and consequence where every choice carries a price.
