Available now on Kindle Vella!
The first 3 episodes are free. Please follow the story if you're interested! A bit more details below.
There's crude humor, heavy fucking language, violence, drama, romance, and tons of neat scifi stuff... Shit, what more could you want? *pats self on back*
There's a mysterious and hauntingly beautiful trans space witch, a hot and brooding "Emo Greek God" scientist, a cryptic and reclusive ancient alien race billions of years more advanced than everyone else, an ethereal being that lives outside of time and space, realistic autistic characters, and lots of talk about mental health.
****
Written by me an Autistic/ADHD human. Cheers if you remember this post from just over a year ago. I haven't stopped writing! This is a series that will eventually be a book (like it was supposed to be) but I find posting in this more digestible format pleasing. It pleases me. Yes, quite, indeed.

NEW STORY: Mirage Manhattan — WxW Superhero Romance
So, I found out about the Kindle Vellys like entirely too late but a challenge never stopped me and I've had this quick novella idea in my head for months. I literally outlined it July 30 and started writing August 1st. Welcome to my crackpot NaNoWriMo, but instead of a month, I have about 3 weeks and I'm expecting it to be about 30k instead of 50 :)
I'm a little stressed.
So, if you want a gay superhero story, this is for you. Imagine MHA style quirks with the Boys media/government system and a Wanda Maximoff/Atom Eve Queer MC. I'm so hype for this and I feel like a lot of other people will be too.
For Kindle Vella, the first 3 episodes are free, I have 2 episodes available right now, so if you'd like to tune in and watch me churn out 8 more episodes in 2 weeks, feel free to follow along! I really want to win this thing and I put myself in the absolute worst situation to do so, but we're here!
If you want to read and follow along, I've put the link below. Thanks for your support! XOXO - Rita BS
Mirage Manhattan
SYPNOSIS: In the year 2105, the world has adapted to the ravages of climate change. Ninety-nine percent of all living creature has developed unique powers to survive in this new reality—except for Samirah Hayes. As a young, newly debuted YA fantasy author, she belongs to the 1 percent of the population who remains unevolved, with no affinity to her name.
Samirah's ordinary life takes a dramatic turn when her brother mysteriously vanishes, and her mother refuses to reveal his whereabouts. Overnight, Samirah discovers she possesses insanely powerful illusionary abilities. With an uncontrollable affinity and a missing brother, she falls under the supervision of Flux, a hero of the Cape Corps, a military branch dedicated to training heroes who respond to global missions.
From a recent graduate author to a fledgling superhero, Samirah’s life undergoes a radical transformation. She must navigate her new powers, the search for her brother, and a developing relationship with her superhero roommate.

But when elves infiltrate the palace and abduct the wrong girl, Kyrenia's forced to team up with her arch rival--Ainslie's brother--on a dangerous quest to save her friend. Meanwhile Ainslie must find a way to use forbidden magic to stay alive in the hands of her arrogant, yet handsome elven captor.

Sometimes authors can get so caught up in their fantastical fiction worlds that they forget about reality - then there other instances where real life can dominate one’s time to the point where the fantasy realms get put on the back burner. These past few days have been more of the latter where work/family/social commitments have taken the proverbial wheel, leaving fiction in the dust. Despite the lack of visits to my imaginary “mind palace,” I have managed to chip away at a few works in progress.
The paperback print formatting process for Unsecret: Identity - Book One hit a personal milestone - meaning that the wraparound cover art has been updated and expanded. Both the front and back art have been finalized, and the spine has also been revised. The back matter has been inserted, but there wasn’t much to include as I want to keep things simple. Now the only tasks left are to create a few pieces of hand-drawn illustrations to place within the book.
I am continuously developing new shorter works, stories intended to be initially released as series on Kindle Vella.
Lastly, I have been recording videos that will be part of a new YouTube chronicling of my author journey.
That’s all for now, but watch this space for further updates as I get get closer and closer to releasing new content.
Stay in the loop for more details by following Jonfcition Blog on Substack and be sure to check out jonmcbrine.com for more info about this and all my books.
Unsecret Identity: Eric Icarus - Book One is available now from the Amazon Kindle store.

Remember when I said new things were coming? Here we go! October 2, 2023! Stay tuned!
Roughly a decade before Andy Foster became the badass witch she is today, she was a mixed-up, magic-addicted sixteen-year-old. Newly returned from the clutches of the Hallowed Circle Coven, she struggles with her crushing guilt. Then she meets Neoma Myles, another troubled, mystically inclined teen with her own dark history. Drawn inexplicably to one another, the two form an incredible bond through recovery... but will it survive the truths of their pasts?

How many words is too many? I have written over 80,000 words already and don't have a computer to edit properly. I've already decided to split the story among multiple books. But how many should each be? I am aiming for a basic novel to a little bit longer, but as a first-time author, I don't want to write something too long and not get anyone to read it.
Finding Your Story's Target Word Count
"How many words is too many" depends on what you're writing. Every type of story and every genre has a different word count range, and the specific ranges vary depending on who you ask. Here are some general ranges you can target...
Story Type:
Short Stories - 1,000 - 5,000 words Novellas - 20,000 to 50,000 words Novels - 50,000 - 110,000 words Epic Novel - 110,000 words and up (though these are rare)
Age Category:
Middle Grade novels - 25,000 - 40,000 words Young Adult novels - 45,000 - 80,000 words New Adult novels - 60,000 - 85,000 words Adult novels - 65,000 - 110,000
Genre:
Literary novels - 80,000 to 110,000 words Romance novels - 50,000 to 80,000 words Fantasy novels - 90,000 to 110,000 words Mystery novels - 70,000 to 90,000 words
It's important to remember that a book series isn't one long novel chopped up into smaller books. Each book in a series needs to have its own story arc. In other words, a beginning/inciting incident, middle/rising action, and end/climax and denouement. That said, you will need to look at the completed story and identify the natural story arcs that exist within it to figure out where each book should end and the next book should begin.
Something else to consider is your publishing goal. If you plan on pursuing traditional publishing, you might look into writing an in-depth summary of the entire story and working with a developmental editor or book coach to figure out how to best divvy up the story between books. That way, you'll ensure that book one is as strong as it can be, which will increase the likelihood of getting a book deal. After that, if your book sells well enough to warrant the publishing of the next book, you will have some guidance on where to go from there.
If you're planning to self-publish, you can still look into working with an editor or book coach, or even a critique partner, or you can just make the best decision you're able to about how to divide each book. Again, what matters is that each part of the story centers on its own individual story arc.
Something else to consider: if you have a really long story that you want to chop up into pieces rather than individual books, you might look into posting it as a serial on a site like Wattpad, Kindle Vella, Ream, or similar services. Serialization allows you to take a long story and chop it up into sizeable pieces, such as "episodes," and then you don't have to worry so much about dividing it up into books with their own individual story arcs.
One final consideration: Not having the ability to edit properly is not an excuse to publish an unedited work of fiction. No one wants to read an unedited story, even if it's chopped up into pieces. If you want to publish this story, whether online, traditionally, or self-published, you need to find a way to edit it properly and make sure you're putting a tight and polished version of the story out into the world.

Hello and Welcome!
Just a writer full of muses and mayhem here! Dark fantasy/supernatural indy fiction (F/M & F/M Why Choose), with a penchant for romance and spice. Currently, I just finished Heir of Shadows, the sequel to my first book; Daughter of the Void. But I also have a long list of WIPs meandering about in the literary ether of my mind.
Still new to figuring out Tumblr and the writing communities here, but I'm open to tag games and asks. There are so many amazing people here! Thank you for putting yourselves out there to make the world a beautiful and more interesting place. I'm always open to constructive feedback or suggestions. As a first time author, I’d love to hear your thoughts; just keep it respectful.
Passion list: writing, drawing, and pretty much anything artsy.
**This is a pinned post that will be updated with my progress on different works**
Random works/prompts will find their homes here on Tumblr, and also my A03.
The Dreadnaught Series
Daughter of the Void (Book 1), is available on Kindle Unlimited. GoodReads page can be found here.
The Dreadnaught Series is a high action F/M spicy dark supernatural romance. The shadows that line the underbelly of New York City's streets, are crawling with more than just criminals. If humans are considered sheep, then wolves walk among them dressed in the garbs of organized crime syndicates. Demons, Witches, Archangels, Shifters; all have carved out a piece of the Big Apple, and surviving comes at a very steep price.
Unfortunately, for Savannah Collins, that cost was trading her life for the life of an ex-boyfriend. Now, as the on-call surgeon for the Kass crime family, she does as she's told, patches the bullet holes, and doesn't ask questions. At least, not until a case is brought to her operating table that is beyond anything she learned in med school. Way beyond. The dream of one day getting free of that life is officially over. A new nightmare has begun. One that involves a demon, who is becoming impossible to resist taking to bed.
Heir of Shadows - Book 2
Available NOW!!
Supernatural/Modern/Romance - Sequel to Daughter of the Void. The continuation of Alaric and Savannah’s story.
Someone once said, “Vengeance is a long road, whose end is too short by a head.” And Gideon Crest had finally lost his. Yet, with his still warm blood spilling into the once battleground streets, Savannah Collins and Alaric Valefor’s problems were far from over. When one king falls, another must take their place. And the balance between wearing the crown of leader, faring the burdens in friendship, and bearing the weight of soul bound are running Alaric thin. An entirely new war is peaking its horns upon the horizon. Only this time, Savannah is the one calling all the shots. The Dreadnaught is on the board, and everyone who knows it wants a piece. With no aces left in the deck, all hands are being shown in a winner takes all game. Yet, the more Savannah bluffs her way into victories, the more it’s becoming scarily apparent her voice may not be entirely her own. The adventures of love and darkness continues, as Savannah, Alaric, and their allies test the strength of their bonds, and the limits of their courage. Protecting each other, and the Dreadnaught, at all costs is becoming expensive.
Upcoming Works:
Vessel and the Void - Book 3 in the Dreadnaught series.
Render Unto the Gods (Temp Title) – Undecided format, either Novel or Serialized release*
Chaos and Crusades (Temp Title) – Serialized release*
Hidden Blades and Long Shadows (Temp Title) – Novel*
The Shade of Fury (Temp Title) – Serialized release (Vella) - A prequel of sorts to DoV – The story of Lorelai and Malak
The Cloth and the Canary - Probably a one shot novel. If that is even possible.
*Until these are further along in, development I probably won’t include much of the plot. I have commitment issues. ^_^
Thank you to my mutuals, and all the people who love and support me and my work!! You are everything that keeps me going!

In the year 2023, leading world scientists attempting to break the god factor code inadvertently releases deadly matter onto the earth and portals to other existences.One thousand years later, the survivors are dealing with the aftermath in a dismal, post-apocalyptic existence.

Oof, I did a lot of publishing things recently. Sharing here if you missed my newsletter!
Fae Deals went wide. This fantasy anthology used to be in KU only, but now you can buy a digital copy from pretty much anywhere and she'll hopefully be in library systems by the end of June for anyone who wants free access. Hoopla always takes awhile, but she's already landed in Overdrive! I plan to have her in my KoFi store by month's end, if you want to support me directly there too.
Fae Dreams came out! She's Kindle Vella only rn, with a new story published every 3-4 days. Most are things I've already shared on Tumblr, but there are a few new ones, and some, like Blacksmith's Heart, I've reworked. A full kindle release is planned for late July/early August.
Shores & Falls finished on Vella. This is actually my first non-fiction! A travelogue about a recent trip to Iceland, and the unexpected micro aggressions that came from being ace and traveling with three happily married women. My goal is to have this in KU mid-July, once I'm past the Vella exclusivity period. We'll see how Amazon behaves.

Read the first three Episodes for FREE!
Episode. 15 - “The Monster in the Mirror” is live on Kindle Vella and Episode 16 - “ ? ” is on the way!
In Episode 15 - Surprise! Readers will be reunited with a character in Jericho that hasn’t been featured since very early in the story. But will it be a double feature? Stay tuned to find out.
The Event: Season One of The Portal War
Science Fiction / Action and Adventure series with a little fantasy and romance sprinkled in
There is really only one thing anybody can say for sure, with certainty, ten days after the Original Event in Egypt: No matter what happens from here on out, whether the outcome is good or bad - nothing will ever be the same for the citizens of Jericho or the eight billion people who call Earth their home.
Strange things are happening in the small town of Jericho. When similar extraordinary reports start popping up all over the globe, a brilliant young geneticist is compelled to return to her hometown.
The Event: Season One of The Portal War
Serialized fiction on Kindle Vella.
Check out thousands of serialized stories, dished out in bite-sized chunks. Each Episode (chapter) is only 600(minimum) to 5,000(max) words, perfect for book lovers who lead busy lives.
Wondering what Kindle Vella is and how it works?
In a nutshell - Kindle Vella is a platform within the Kindle app and on the web (Amazon) to find and read Serialized Stories. Think of it as a digital library of books, novels, or series that are released a chapter at a time as "Episodes," that can be read on your phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop. Each Episode is the equivalent of a short chapter.
Or...And this is how I prefer to think of it, how I explain it to my friends who have never tried it before - I liken the Serialized Stories on Vella to their favorite TV shows, where new episodes are dropped in chunks, or perhaps weekly, and those Episodes make up a season. Vella's Serialized Stories are a similar concept.
AND...you can read the first three Episodes of EVERY story for FREE to see if it's a good fit. Kind of like how you watch a trailer for an upcoming movie or a teaser for the next season of a show, to see if it's something that might interest you before investing your time in it.
So, the first three Episodes of each and EVERY story are always free! After that, you can purchase tokens (from right there on the platform) and redeem them to unlock Episodes and continue reading the stories that interest you.
*New readers are automatically offered a bundle of 200 tokens for free* that you can use up before purchasing more. And there are various token bundles to choose from, starting at only $1.99.
The number of tokens required to unlock an episode varies based on episode length.
For example: A locked Episode that is...
600 words = will require 6 tokens to unlock
700 words = 7 tokens
800 words = 8 tokens
1,200 words = 12 tokens
1,800 words = 18 tokens, etc.
