current obsession: this lovely post over at @socialdistancebookfest! check out more details about the festival and the panel I’ll be attending below! ✨ Posted @withregram • @socialdistancebookfest With a combination of How to Train Your Dragon and Quidditch Through the Ages, you'll want to covet this book like a dragon gravitates towards treasure. In a contemporary world, dragons and riders compete in an international sports tournament. Lana Torres prefers dragons to people. She's prepared to fight for Puerto Rico against sixteen countries in the Blazewrath World Cup, a tournament where dragons and their riders fight for glory. Lana is given a chance to be in the tournament. But what she comes to realize is that Blazewrath's superstar teamed up with the Sire, a legendary cursed dragon. They're burning down dragon sanctuaries around the world until the tournament is cancelled. To be there for her nation's glory, Lana must solve an international conspiracy that burns more deadly possibilities than her own beloved sport.

Get Shadecursed on Amazon TOMORROW, December 19, 2023.
Today I wanted to talk a little bit about why I picked Dec. 19 as my release date. And this'll get a little personal.
My grandfather died on 12/19/1994.
All through school, I struggled to remember dates, which happened to be the format of a lot of questions on tests.
What date did Washington cross the Delaware? What date did the Civil War come to an end? I could never remember. Moreover, if I DID remember anything regarding a date, I would mix it up. My brain assigns numbers to people, and that becomes the date of their birthday. My mom's number is 12. I know she was born in February. Year after year, I think her birthday is 2/12. It's not. My dad's number is 17. I know he was born in October. Every single year, I think his birthday's 10/17. It's not.
But the one date I remember with clarity is 12/19/1994.
My grandpa raised me because my parents worked to the point where I really only saw them at night. That's just how things are for people who don't have a lot of money. If you don't work, you don't eat.
The problem is, while I understand that now, children... Generally don't. And given my bed time at that age, I saw my grandpa more than I saw my parents. Then he was gone, and so that date became seared into my memory.
Of course there are other dates I remember. 10/31 is Halloween. 12/25 is Christmas.
But along with those stable holidays, 12/19 is the day my grandpa died.
When I was looking for release dates for Shadecursed, it just so happened that 12/19 happened to be a Tuesday.
Book release dates typically happen on Tuesdays. I don't know why; it's just how the industry runs. So I thought to myself, I can use this date to turn a bad memory into a good one. The release date of my first fantasy novel--which I consider to be my best work--can override the sadness I feel on that date. When I think of 12/19 going forward, I can also remember that this was the release date of Shadecursed, and I won't feel so awful on that date anymore.
