I highly recommend any of the following amazing self-published authors:

@rmkrogman.bsky.social ('Marked', 'Liberation')
Casie Aufenthie ('The Drift', 'The Symbiosis')
Hannah D. State ('Journey to the Hopewell Star', 'Journey to the Dark Galaxy')
@szattwellauthor.bsky.social ('Aestus' book 1 & 2)

Thank you so much! This is giving me motivation to keep working on book 3!

sceston.bsky.social•39 days ago

What, there is a book 3 coming? That is great news! :) How far ahead are you?

szattwellauthor.bsky.social•39 days ago

Aww thanks - I hope so! I’ve been working on it for a long time. Just had major writer’s block. Thank God I seem to have overcome it (I hope). I’m also working on my master’s thesis so it might be a while. But I have a plot and quite a bit of material.

sceston.bsky.social•38 days ago

I'm so happy to hear this! I can't wait, but take the time you need, and congrats on working on your master's thesis. That's something to be really proud of :)

szattwellauthor.bsky.social•38 days ago

Thank you!! I’ve definitely done nothing useful on it tonight but I’ve written for 5 hours (Aestus) and I feel that counts as being productive. I need to do a lot of reading for the thesis anyway before I can write any further. One day of break seems fine.

Awesome!!

diannalgunn.bsky.social•39 days ago

Ooooh, some of those have great titles 👀👀👀

diannalgunn.bsky.social•39 days ago

And two more authors to celebrate for #InternationalWomensDay

@caitgauthor.bsky.social, whose silliness always brightens my day and who writes amazing disabled characters
@premeemohamed.com, who I met in person last weekend and had an absolute blast chatting with

There are thousands of incredible women writing incredible books, and I don't have the time to create a thread of them all, so I'll pass it on to you: who are your favourite woman writers? Be sure to tag them and share why you love them! #InternationalWomensDay

we love KJ Harrowick here!

diannalgunn.bsky.social•39 days ago

She's amazing!! I've worked with her in a few capacities - we've beta read each other's books, she's been on Weeknight Writers panels, we've done cross-promos - and I always love it
