1. Hi! Welcome to my humble blog of all things bookish! I would like for us to start by getting to know you. Give us a short bio, please!

K. Rose has been a part of the Indie Author Community for years. Getting her start as a reader, her keen eye led to a wonderful career in Alpha/Beta and ARC (Advance Reader Copy) reading. As a joke to her fellow advanced reader colleagues, she created a spoofed blurb and cover for a story and the feedback was so positive that it sparked her to run with it.

That stoked a fire that has her racing down a multi-genre freeway with no off-ramp in sight. K. doesn’t write to “market” and she is fairly certain that her humor and use of puns may cause an eye roll or two. This still wouldn’t stop her from making sure there is humor in every one of her stories. As a Multi Genre Author, there is sure to be something for everyone to love.

She has traveled the USA extensively, including Alaska, and lived in thirty-eight of the fifty states. Home is now the beautiful state of Wisconsin, where she dreams up her stories in the company of her menagerie of furbabies, including five puppies, three rescue kitties, a bunch of chickens, ducks and turkeys ruled by a Rooster named Chicken Parm, a ninety-gallon tropical fish tank and a chatty nineteen-year-old Cherry Headed Conure named Oscar!

Life will always be interesting for K. Rose, which will fuel her works, and keep her muses singing, come join the chorus.

I am a multi genre Author, and I tend to stick to romance in general, but will have trope bending and mashups galore, because I want to mix it up and make something that traditional publishers are afraid of. I am working on a PNR sci-fi mashup, a contemporary sweet romance, and a pNR romcom right now…plus about 12 other stories that I have started the outlines for.

1. Hi! Welcome to my humble blog of all things bookish! I would like for us to start by getting to know you. Give us a short bio, please!

Hi! Thank you so much for having me! My name is Georgiana and I’m a fantasy author from the UK. I used to live abroad, so my urban fantasies and fantasy romances pull in inspiration from my time in the East. I love cake, chocolate and dachshunds! Though, not necessarily in that order!

3. To get to know you just a little bit better, I’d like to ask you some “This or That”-questions. Answer 5 of these and explain why you chose this or that, or maybe an entirely different alternative!

Ebooks OR physical books? Both! I love my little library of physical books, but I always have an eBook on my phone

First person view OR third person view? 3^rd person

Standalone OR series? Series, though I love standalones set in the same universe!

Read multiple books OR one at a time? I used to be a ‘one at a time’ kinda girl, but now I’m ‘multiple’!

Signed edition OR first edition? Love a signed copy!

Graphic novels OR comic books? Mangas! I adore Studio Ghibli!

Plot driven OR character driven? Both!

4. When you look for books to read, what trope, theme, or type of story will always catch your attention?

I love fantasies with found family and a good slow burn romance, my favourite is enemy-to-lovers!

5. If you were to describe your writing style using 3 words, what would they be?

Original, compelling, epic

6. So what do you write? Tell us a bit more about your chosen genre, style and ongoing projects/WIPs/series!

I’m currently writing Book Three in my Soul Dominion series which is about a girl, Erica, who has a secret. One day, she’s attacked on her way home by a demon and her life is saved by Michael, an enigmatic, and sexy, time traveller! From that point on, nothing is the same as her secret and life unravel as she helps Michael and his friends save humanity from dominiation by a growing army of soul-thirsty demons. It’s the first of many series that will take place in my KeyMaster universe with faeries, fae, vampires, werewolves, demons and angels, each with different MCs and stories.

I’m also drafting a fantasy romance series. Warring Hearts will be a series of standalone novels and novellas set in Myrrithia, a land where myth meets legend and passion runs high! The novellas will be loosely based on myths, fairy tales, and folklore with equal helpings of magic, action and romance.

7. What is your most recent release? Give us a short presentation, cover, and a link for where to buy it!

Keys of Fate was released in July 2022 and is Book Two in my Soul Dominion series.

1. Hi! Welcome to my humble blog of all things bookish! I would like for us to start by getting to know you. Give us a short bio, please!

Lauren finds Real Life overrated, and has always preferred to inhabit alternate realities, both self-created and created by others. However, after being burned by certain fandoms one too many times, Lauren decided to focus her reality escape attempts on her own creations. She’s much happier now, although she still enjoys fandoms – in small doses.

A believer in love, hope, compassion, and similar squishy ideals, Lauren endeavors to create stories that both gut-punch and elevate her readers. Emotional rollercoasters are what make fiction fun, after all.

When she’s not avoiding Real Life responsibilities, Lauren enjoys dancing at music festivals, spending time in nature, and tending to her cat’s every whim. She lives in North Florida with her partner and assorted furred critters, but can be found online at laloga.com

3. To get to know you just a little bit better, I’d like to ask you some “This or That”-questions. Answer 5 of these and explain why you chose this or that, or maybe an entirely different alternative!

Ebooks OR physical books? – Ebooks, because with my poor vision, it’s nice to be able to increase the font size & my lighting preferences.
First person view OR third person view? Third person close. Just as intimate as first, but less clunky.
Standalone OR series? Series, because characters need time to grow!
Read multiple books OR one at a time? Multiple at a time, but different genres, ie: fiction and non-fiction.
Signed edition OR first edition? Signed editions for that personal touch.

4. If you were to describe your writing style using 3 words, what would they be?

Heartfelt, evocative, epic.

5. So what do you write? Tell us a bit more about your chosen genre, style and ongoing projects/WIPs/series!

My current series, Chaos Moon is LGBTQ+ fantasy romance. If you love badass heroines, rivals to lovers, and slow-burn steamy romances, Chaos Moon will heal your heart and become your new obsession. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Assassin’s Mercy (Chaos Moon #1)

Link: https://books2read.com/assassins-mercy

Need a mage killed? Verve’s got you covered.

As a member of the holy order of Atal’s Chosen, Verve lives by the edge of her hematite blade. Trained from childhood to stand tall against the warring mage clans, Verve won’t let anyone else’s family die at magic’s cruel hands.

So when Verve’s patron tasks her with taking out a notorious mage leader, she knows her skills are up to the challenge. Sure enough, Verve lands a cover-job right in the heart of her target’s territory. The coin’s not great, but protecting the locals makes for the perfect camouflage while she hunts for her true target. What’s more, the handsome local barkeep Alem seems to know more than he’s letting on about the mage she’s looking for.

Against all common sense, Verve discovers a cause worth fighting for in the village. But living by the blade means dying by it too, and when Verve’s powerful patron learns of the life she’s found and her growing change of heart, she gives Verve an ultimatum: Kill the mage or be hunted by her own fellow Chosen. Verve is forced to choose a side or risk losing her new found family, the life she didn’t know she wanted… and a man she didn’t know she could love.

The only way out of this mess is to die… or find magic of her own.
