Overpowered Cover Reveal

Fleeing a terrible crime, Taliyah bat Shammai makes her way toward a city of refuge.  Yet can even a band of seven outlaws protect her from the Avenger of Blood? 

This week I'm excited to share the cover of my new novella!  I really love it.  While the designer and I were going back and forth about it I kept using each new version as my desktop background.  On more than one occasion, my brother came into my room to find me staring at it on my computer.  He thought that was pretty funny.

So here it is!  Now you all can stare at it too!  :)


The design is by the wonderful Bulbous Squirrel.  You can find her other covers here: https://www.bsquirreldesign.com/

Looking through designer portfolios always makes me want to order covers for all my stories... even the ones that have been sitting unfinished in my computer (or even worse, in my head) for lo, these many years.  What about you all?  Do you have an unfinished story whose cover you can just see so clearly in your mind's eye?

Penprints Flash Fiction Dash: Painted with Light

[I wrote this story based on a prompt for the Penprints Flash Fiction Dash.  Yay flash fiction!  If you check out the Penprints site in early June, you will be able to see the stories from everyone who participated!  The Penprints site is <https://rosalievalentine.wordpress.com/> ] Painted with Light Duomik slipped through the liner’s banquet hall, a poncho wrapped around him, bare feet sure.   Despite the blasting warmth of the liner’s heating system, the floor carried a trace of cold. “That’s one of them—the divers,” a teenage girl hissed to her mother, abandoning her plate of fish.   “Ask him!” “Excuse me,” the older woman called sharply. Duomik turned back, squinting against fluorescent lights and tourists’ stares.   Skinny, pale, he was anything but impressive. “Does it work?   The lights?   Does it bring them out?” she asked. “It says in the brochure, na ?” Duomik wrinkled his nose.   The stinks ...

You Set It On FIRE? (Thorn and Cedar Promote Overpowered)

Promoting a new book is a lot of work... all those interviews and so on take up an awful lot of your time.  But after reading the Silmaril Award presentations from this year (here and elsewhere: http://jenelleschmidt.com/least-competent-henchman-award/?fbclid=IwAR3jvdWWrF60p0NzKH33Z_I_l6TnrIovYUyAMAcH4RBeuheAGmJc5Fy5GrQ) I had a bright idea: send my characters to do the interviews in my stead. In hindsight, this may not have been the best idea. *** Host : Thanks for joining us today for an all-new episode of the Fairy Tale Show!   Kathryn McConaughy was supposed to be here to talk about her new book, Overpowered , but since she is busy writing her dissertation she sent some of her story’s characters in her place. The host sits behind a heavy desk at the center of a curved stage.   Several armchairs are arranged across from him, at right angles so that the studio audience can see the faces of anyone who sits there.   Behind him a curtain hides the b...
