I have neither of those, but I’d love to email about it if you would be willing.

@ellette-giselle that’s true…😂

I have a few authors that I talk to a lot about KC but they’re on Instagram/Discord so it’s definitely a more private messaging kind of system

@freed_and_redeemed

well you have my EMAIL!!! *hint hint hint!!* lolol

Oooo! I can’t wait to love the cast so much too!!!!

@koshka

shut up, you’re making me remember that I haven’t eaten.

And no! Don’t say it! I’m not. I’m just busy writing.

@loopylin

Rory 

He watched Leo with interest. He’d had medical training– enough to hide injuries from the doctors. “Do you know what you’re…” he trailed off, suddenly frightened that he’d said something…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yeah haha. If we could all talk privately it’d be different and I could share more😭

And honestly same. It takes a lot for me to like a fantasy book. KC, however, is very near and dear to my heart 🤭

The cast is just ugh I love them sm

@freed_and_redeemed

Oh really?! Me too!

Ah yes, that’s why I’ve stopped posting stuff on here.

Yes, I’m not a huge fan of Fantasy as it tends to be lame, trashy, or cliché (or all of it, lol) but I am very intrigued by this.

@ellette-giselle @loopylin

Okay y’all! Tortillas are done and taco meat is cooking.

Leo

What had the kid done to himself? Knowing the chaos this school seemed to generate, Leo decided he didn’t want to know. He quietly took the used bandage so the kid wouldn’t have to move.

And he’d make sure to take out the trash tonight. Best not to leave evidence.

@ellette-giselle I personally use Canva haha. It’s the easiest but still good one I’ve found for designing covers.

Yes very spendy😅

Aww thanks, I’m glad🤭(I deleted it now so not just anyone on the internet can find it🙈). Aww haha thank you! I certainly feel like it’s helped me a lot to improve my craft.

And yayyyy🤭 I was hoping you…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

Oh cool! What do you use for that?

Ah yes, they are spendy. XD

nailed it! It seemed like it would go from what you’ve told me.

Ooo! I like this a lot! I can see already that your style has matured! I’ve very interested now. XD

@ellette-giselle I’m designing the cover haha! I would love to have a few illustrations in it but I probably can’t afford it, sadly😭

Maybe for special editions one day though 👀

And yesss it is! A quote from Book 2🤭

@freed_and_redeemed

and yes! I’d love a snippet. But only if you want to share it.

@freed_and_redeemed

ack! So long to wait! I’m excited to read these. Do you have a cover artist/designer? Will you have it illustrated?

is your signature a quote from your book by any chance?!

I could potentially share a snippet of the first chapter here if y’all wanted though👀

@ellette-giselle

Atm it’s hard to say🙈 I think maybe, maybe I’m looking at a Spring 2027 release for the 1st book…though potentially earlier if I can get things finalized 🤫

@freed_and_redeemed

It is very rarely necessary to show it. I believe such topics can be handled with grace and truth without having to be graphic about it.

exactly!

So, when will these books be available?!

@ellette-giselle  It is very rarely necessary to show it. I believe such topics can be handled with grace and truth without having to be graphic about it.

There’s mainly 1 main character in KC that such topics are handled a lot, but I still do my best to keep it from getting graphic at all or getting too heavy.

But I have to discuss it wi…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

The overly graphic violence and other things are hinted at but kept off page.

Exactly. In my adult books I do give reference to it, but some things just don’t need to be shown. It doesn’t do anything for the story and is only there for sensation, you know? I addressed an issue of a girl who was abused by a gestapo officer,…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

They do need to be addressed, just not in a way that destroys innocence, glorifies it in a twisted way, or is just unnecessarily graphic.

I wholeheartedly agree. That’s one reason why KC is going to be 18+, will have a content warning at the beginning of the book, and won’t glorify such horrendous actions.

The overly graphic…[Read more]

and yes, people also need to be able to see the hope and the way to a new life which will only come through redemption in Christ.

It’s kinda both a way to show the victims that they are seen and a spur to action that such injustices need to come to an end
