Sometimes I want to release my novel for free just for the sake of getting feedback since if I ever get it published I’ll be doing a heavy rewrite on it before I begin pitching but I’m 99% sure people only read free books online if they’re fanfic of some kind. Lauren suggested repackaging it as a Looney Tunes fanfic and that wouldn’t be the HARDEST sell in the world but I still don’t know if that would actually pan out

[therollingpintoyourcleaver]

What is actually about that you would be able to repackage it into Looney Tunes fanfic? 🫣 I'm really so curious now.

[kimpossibooty]

Well, you see, it would be easy to incorporate Looney Tunes into my book given that I did a normal thing and wrote a novel inspired by Looney Tunes to the point that I even marathoned old episodes for research. Other inspirations I can cite include The Dresden Files, Welcome to Night Vale, and Rude Tales of Magic.

It’s an urban fantasy comedy about three mid-20s freelancers in the supernatural troubleshooting world. They pick up what they think is going to be an easy case only to find themselves facing off with a chaos god with a penchant for Saturday morning television who curses the main character with cartoon physics. The relatively amateur paranormal gumshoes must now learn how to stop a deity before it plunges their world into never-ending mayhem, all while one of their own is being flattened by falling anvils on the daily.

It’s a short novel, about 53k words, and was written for NaNoWriMo the year our first child was born, so it was largely written under duress on my phone from a rocking chair in the night. It’s the beginning of a planned five-book series that I’ve been working on for five years now and is full of queer and disability representation.

It’s a project I’m incredibly proud of and passionate about, I just haven’t had the time and mental capacity to get back to it and do the rewrites I need to justify beginning the querying process again

[kimpossibooty]

It’s also tonally similar at points to how I wrote Target Retales for those of you who remember that project from a decade ago lol

[kimpossibooty]

Okay if I upload it for free to a site like Itch or Gumroad would you download it

Yes and probably read it too

Yes but immediately forget about it

Probably not

[kimpossibooty]

Okay SO I did it

The book is now available through Itch and Gumroad

Both are free so pick whichever site is more convenient for you but there are pay what you can options and Itch’s minimum payout is $5 and Gumroad’s is $100 so if you feel like buying me a coffee for the read I’d suggest Itch or I’ll almost certainly never see it

Anyway I’m doing this because I think this version of the book has reached its end and before I move forward with it I’ll be rewriting the majority of it so I feel fine sharing this BUT the core of the book will be the same, same general plot, same concepts, a lot of the same goofs and gags, so if you do take a look and have any thoughts on like if the idea of an urban fantasy meets Looney Tunes book actually works I would love to know!

Reminder that if you’re one of the generous group who downloaded my book and you wind up reading it I’d very much like to hear from you!!!

Attn Illumicrate Users

If you got this months Illumicrate I will pay you like. 40 dollars for the book included in it if you don’t want it!! The Everlasting was my favorite book in years and i really love their edition but the standalone book sale sold out in the subscriber pre sale 🥲

I’m not a collector if that makes a difference to you, this would be my only copy!

[katherinewhatever]

this requires people to just trust me (which, it's fine if you don't) but my best friend's aunt in Venezuela has been cooking for people in need post-earthquake in her neighborhood but food in Venezuela is extremely expensive, if anyone is interested in contributing to her I'm gonna link my paypal

paypal.me/kgryffindor

ignore the harry potter related username, I have tried to change it, paypal will not let me, I promise I'm not a TERF

again super not necessary for people to donate, my friend has just lost some friends/cousins in the earthquake (several people missing presumed dead) and she's understandably distraught and I'd love to raise money for her loved ones if anyone is interested/able

Support Charity Through Absurdity

So as you’ve probably seen, my daughter has arthritis and we’re raising funds for her as the Youth Honoree in this year’s Walk to Cure Arthritis in North Carolina! We’re working towards our goal of supporting research into treatments and cures in the hopes that one day we won’t need to keep a sharps container for our toddler in our kitchen cabinets.

BUT I want to offer something in return for your kindness!

As some may remember, I used to post absolutely batshit centaur alternatives

And I’m willing to return to my art!

Make a $5 donation to our fundraiser and you can request an inane hybrid mistake of your own!

Make a $10 donation to our fundraiser and I’ll personally comb through your blog and create a bastardization of nature that I feel matches your aura!

If you donate, just shoot me a message on here and we’ll get started! But do me a favor and don’t mention this deal on your donation so the people at the Arthritis Foundation don’t find out just how unhinged I am

Already donated? Message me the name you donated under and I’ll hook you up with whatever!

Once again asking for your help to keep our silly, funny, beautiful girl running and jumping and climbing! Penny has Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis and thanks to great strides in research, she’s nearly one year without a flare!

This research is only possible thanks to amazing people offering their hard earned money to this cause. The NC Walk To Cure Arthritis is coming up in May and Penny is even their youth honoree!

Consider donating a few dollars to our fundraiser for research. We’re hoping for a world where a pill can be her treatment instead of biweekly home injections 💚

[daffidilly]

The flowery language is fun and nice but really I’m asking you to donate so that maybe I don’t have to have a sharps container for my toddler anymore. This research is really saving quality of life for everyone but especially for the babies and kids who are diagnosed really early and risk the biggest lifelong impacts.

The walk is next weekend and I’ll stop reblogging because I know there’s a million awful things happening in the world, but this one is in my little corner.
