Big Indie SFF Sale at the Summer's End
The Narratess’ Sale has returned, and most of today’s newsletter is about that! It’s my favourite indie sale, and I got busy for it!

Starting today, and until the end of August 25, you can get over 300 indie SFF books at a big discount—everything should be $1.99 or less!
I have Flooded Secrets in the sale, and since this is Book 2 in a series, I also put Awakenings on sale too! The cheapest way to grab them is through a tiny itchio sale with both, right here.
The sale has filters to help you new books, but I thought I’d throw four shoutouts your way: two I loved, and two I want to read!
Two I loved, and that are getting sequels soon(ish)!
Werecockroach by Polenth Blake - alien invasion novella with dry humour, underlying kindness, all around good time.
Far Removed by C. B. Lansdell - sci-fi with deep worldbuilding, fascinating characters.
Two I want to read
The Revenge of Captain Vestia by Leslie Allen - listen. Trans woman vampire pirate. It sounds like a lot of bloody fun, I’m so here for it.
Wasteland Heart by Al Hess - I’ve yet to bounce off an Al Hess book. When I need a laugh, lots of feelings, and to just general feel good for new lil guys, he’s one of my go to.
Narratess Itchio Bundles
I said at the start that I had gotten busy for this sale, and here’s the deal: as with the April sale, I organized (with some help!) itchio bundles of books featured in the sale!
The bundles contain 99 different books, and they are split either by genre or by length. You’ll find all the links at the top of the Narratess Indie Sale!
With Flooded Secrets, I am part of two different bundles, Fantasy 3, and Novellas & Short Stories!

We’re, what, 20 days away from the next Nerezia novella? Where did time fly? Despite the big radio silence on this one, I am so excited for it. The overarching plot is really picking up, it draws a lot of my time walking the streets of Pompei & Ercolano, and Merismyr Kol is getting some real page time! :3


Patreon has been almost exclusive the regular updates for free members. As much as I’d like to have more bonus content, I’ve been struggling to do All the Things—which you can tell by said updates haha. The July 2 Update explains it best. I do truly appreciate everyone supporting me for the sake of it. Every little bit helps in my current situation!
