Writeblr Re-Intro: Feb. 2023 Edition!
Hi there, fellow readers and writers! I’m Claris (she/her).
I write a wide variety of works including poetry and fiction. I also post book reviews and fanfics weekly, though expect more of my focus to be on original works this year!
Click here to check out my website! Or, if you want to read a fuller-length version of what I’m up to for this month, click here to read my official February 2023 writing update post.
See this Carrd to find links to my website, other social media, and fanfiction!
Fiction:
I published the first book in my murder mystery series, “Winner Takes All: A Harlow Mystery” in June 2022, and you can click here for more details about it! Please feel free to support me by buying a copy, spreading the word about it, or even requesting your library to get it in their e-catalogue. I appreciate all the support in my writing journey.
I’ve also had some short stories and poetry published in various literary magazines and collections, and I hope to have more pieces published this year!
Currently Pitching/Querying:
“Sadie’s Search For The Missing Necklace:” A kidlit fantasy book inspired by Gwyneth Rees’ Fairy Dust series and Daisy Meadows’ Rainbow Fairy series. As of this writing, I just pitched this book to a traditional publisher and (hopefully) they’ll let me know by late April/early May latest if they said yes to it or not! Wish me luck!
Current WIPS:
A fantasy novel inspired by the video game series King’s Quest. I am currently still writing its first draft and I’ve spoken a bit on this blog about how it’s going so far. I hope to figure out a working title by the time I finish writing the draft! The goal is to finish writing the draft by the end of this month.
"An Engagement To Die For:” The sequel to “Winner Takes All,” the murder mystery that I self-published last year (June 2022)! It’s currently going through some beta readers at this time.
