❌MATURE READERS ONLY 🔞

Feyd put his arm around my back to lead me back to the dais. I was ready for food. None of my meals stuck inside. It was as if half of my food slipped to nothingness, causing me to eat twice as much. It calmed Feyd’s concern of my intake, at least. A servant approached with my drink. “I need something to eat. Do you have anything? No. God, no. No eyes. Something nice.” They mumbled a quiet reply that they would find some. I would apologize for my insistence when they returned. With something to eat. “Na-Baron! Oh, na-Baron.” Voices called out. Feyd was pulled to greet his nobility as they fawned. He could not turn down the chance for their attentions. I was happy to remain apart, watching his ego grow and grow the longer they spoke. The Bondar matron appeared at his side. She put a hand on his shoulder. His eyes snapped to it, pulling away very directly. She, however, took it in stride. Her hand gestured out to the younger of the women. The young daughter bowed and nodded along with her mother’s statements. Eager smiles showed their own set of imposing teeth. The tips of their long corner teeth were like fangs, down into their gums. They were the type made for Feyd. He could be bitten by those fangs with great delight. Deep bruises would remain tender for weeks after being punctured by those. My stomach soured. Maybe I was not so fit as his partner as I believed. Maybe more monster lurked inside. A stronger demented monster that kept restrained by his own obsession. Feyd’s attention flicked up for a moment. Our eyes met. Through tables and people, we were able to see one another clearly. He did not appear the least interested. His eyes rolled before he had to turn back to his subordinates. He explained, before, that it was imperative to retain excellent relations with his nobles. If he was to overthrow his uncle and surmount the throne, he needed their support. If we made enemies of them, it would make things difficult. That was why I did not crumble to pieces when he accepted a dance with one of them. I watched as he kept her at arm’s length as they walked to the dance floor. Others joined in the space. Paired off as couples to dance the same beat. My fingers stuffed small roasted beans and dried olives in my mouth. Their salt satisfied my taste buds. “The lady stands alone.” I jolted in place. I had thought I was alone on the edge of the floor. My fingers dusted the salt onto my dress. “Harun.” It showed my surprise. I practically shouted it. “You’re here.” “I was surprised to merit an invitation. It was my impression the na-Baron did not care for me much.” I blinked. I did not know what to say. “But, here we are.” He said with a smile. “Accepted once more, yes?” The dance started. The many couples, Feyd included, began to move. It was a fascinating watch. The dance was lively for a Harkonnen tradition. There was not much spirit inside them but for blood sport. I questioned whether it was a true tradition of their culture, and what sort of noble people they had sprang from whom held dance in a lively air that the living Harkonnens did not.

Hi, everyone! I'm looking for alpha readers for my book, The Anatomy of Vengeance! It's a sapphic Medusa origin story following her life, love, and loss before she was cursed.

Genre: LGBTQ+ Romantasy/Mythological retelling

Word Count: 36000

Page Count: 225

Status: First round of edits

Synopsis:

Medusa: The woman with the petrified heart. But was it always that way?

Medusa of Sarpedon learned early what it meant to be alone. Abandoned by her family, she has lived most of her life that way. However, when the world arrives on her doorstep, she has no choice but to let it in. Medusa ventures away from home, and learns more about life, love, and herself than she ever thought possible. Following the life of one of the most famous figures in Greek Mythology, The Anatomy of Vengeance shows that Medusa was not, in fact, a monster, but a woman who longed to be loved.

If this sounds interesting to you, please don't hesitate to reach out and I will send a PDF copy your way.

Any feedback is much appreciated, as I can take it into consideration for my first round of edits.

If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask!

Thank you to anyone willing to read.

ARC Reviewers needed!

Hey everyone! I'm in countdown mode for the publication of PERIHELID. October 17th is coming up fast...

I need reviewers. Preferably, people who have read the first two books in the series, EMBASSY and RESONANCE.

Unlike RESONANCE, PERIHELID isn't a book you can pick up and start reading and become acquainted with the story without having read the other books in the series. Everything that led up to this book is vital to understanding it.

I'm finishing up the second-to-final draft today (literally in a 4 hour car ride). The ARC copy of the book will be ready for reviewers in the third week of September -- I'm estimating September 20th.

If you would like to be an ARC reviewer, please let me know! Anyone living in the United States can receive a paperback edition. Anyone outside the United States will receive an ebook version. Requirements are that you have read both EMBASSY and RESONANCE, and that the review be published on Amazon and Goodreads, and if you have a personal review website, that'd be awesome, too :) All reviews should be published by October 17th, but please, no later than two weeks after. The sooner reviews are posted, the better!

I will provide you with a copy for free! However, if you want to review and haven't read the first two books, you'll need to get those for yourself.

<b>SOME INFORMATION</b>

--My books are futuristic science-fiction, taking place in a relatively peaceful era 2,000 years after humanity left Earth.

--These first three books are heavily character-driven and introspective. That is, much of the story focuses on Arman's personal character development, and is in inside his head a lot.

--These books are a celebration of humanity, and our endeavors. It's meant to be a story with a bright future. A story of exploration, of discovery, of our place in society and in the universe.

--There's a lot of science, and I try to keep an accurate portrayal of physics and astronomy. Whatever laws I couldn't keep, I developed entirely new physics for, which you can read on my website. The science isn't always front and center but it's ever-present.

--There are geopolitical, environmental, and socioeconomic undertones. Showing how various events shape political atmospheres is a major focal point as the story moves forward.

--There are cool futuristic sports that readers have fawned over.

--There are maps in the paperback version of RESONANCE, and they are available in color on my website.

--The website itself is a wealth of educational materials and extra-content for the books. Visit ExperienceDaliona.com.

So yeah! If you want to be an ARC reviewer, send me a message. Priority will be given to people with review blogs that have a decent following/engagement. I will also be contacting those of you who have reviewed for me in the past.

Thank you so much, and I hope to work with you soon!

You want maybe, an OC? Have two, you deserve it.

Bard comes from what I like to call the "Sorcerer's Apprentice" school of superpowers. Stuff like manipulating objects, or low level telepathy. Songbird often partners with Bard. After all, what would pair with a singing ability better than an instrumental one?

Anyone up to read a fic for me and tell me if it makes sense?  It is my usual sixteen fandoms and five AUs in a blender shit:  Torchwood Detroit, the Star Wars Michigan AU, and Netflix Sandman, but Sandman is the most important one here -- Torchwood Detroit gets explained as we go and the only Star Wars thing that’s really present is the name Amilyn Holdo, so.  (Also, there’s nods to House of Leaves, but when aren’t there?)  I don’t really need a full beta, although I’m always down for good suggestions.  Mostly I just want to know if the plot makes sense, if there are places that need further developing (and if so, where), and if I have enough flashback in or if I need to build out my flashback scenes a little more. 

If you want to read it, please comment/message me so I can share the fic with you.  No rush on the time frame, and like I said, please don’t worry about a full beta -- she’s getting at least one more draft anyway.
