Hello everyone, 
          	
          	I'm now, officially, an agented author represented by Keir Alekseii at Azantian Literary Agency! I hope to spread my wings a bit across genres, but my debut will (hopefully) be an adult grimdark fantasy, for which I'll put the pitch below!
          	
          	Here are my socials:

          	Anyways, I've absolutely loved creating a community of loving people on here, and if any of my mutuals want to stay in contact, feel free to DM me for my discord handle.
          	
          	Again, so grateful for the time I spent on this site (I published and finished my first ever book, Spandex Is Mandatory, on here!), so it's sad to say goodbye, but I'm happy to connect with everyone I can in the journey to come. Thank you all for your love and support! It has truly meant the world to me ❤️ 
          	
          	Again, I'll be checking in more regularly up until my announcement, so feel free to message me! 
          	
          	All the best and with lots of love,
          	
          	Juli :)
          	
          	Pitch:
          	
          	Within a city steeped in occult brujeria, home to a drug war older than the city, itself, stands the Bellflower: a casino that gambles in memories instead of coin.
          	
          	Devoted nun and cartel daughter, Mo, defies her god and her family by following her twin into the Bellflower's neon lights. Indebted casino worker, Andy, lost her past to the dice, but must rediscover herself in order to reclaim her body and save her girlfriend from under the casino's thumb.
          	
          	But at the Bellflower, there's only one thing that's certain: if you show your hand, be prepared to watch it burn.

Hi, Is your book Spandex is Mandatory available anymore? It doesn't seem to have the chapters anymore on Wattpad.

Hello! If you read my update in the book, I’ve taken down all my work due to my having an agent, and will begin my traditional publishing journey very soon. I’m sorry if you didn’t get to read it before it was taken down, but I tried to give notice so people could finish up ❤️

(HUMONGOUS NEWS AHEAD)
          
          Hello everyone, 
          
          I know I haven’t been active on here as of late, but it’s mostly because I was following my dreams of becoming a traditionally published author! As I’m a few weeks away from announcing my being represented by a literary agent (ah!), I’ll also be taking down my work once I do, in case I later want to use any of it within my trad pub career. 
          
          I’m sending out this so that anyone who is currently reading can finish up, and anyone who was looking to read can do so as well! I’ll get some announcement chapters up sooner rather than later, as well! 
          
          Anyways, I’ve absolutely loved creating a community of loving people on here, and pls feel free to DM me for my Twitter and/discord if you’d like to follow my trad pub journey and be on the lookout for any books coming to stores near you someday! 
          
          Again, so grateful for the time I spent on this site (I published and finished my first ever book, Spandex Is Mandatory, on here!), so it’s sad to say goodbye, but I’m happy to connect with everyone I can in the journey to come. 
          
          Thank you all for your love and support! It has truly meant the world to me ❤️ Again, I’ll be checking in more regularly up until my announcement, so feel free to message me! 
          
          All the best and with lots of love,
          Lia :)

So so so so SO sorry for the inactivity and long wait but, for those who have been asking (and rightly so), I've decided to begin publishing the sequel to Frostborn, BLOODBOUND! Thanks to all those who give it a read and it'll publish a new chapter every Friday :)

LightenTheShadows
