Let's celebrate Candace Robinson's fantastic new dark fantasy book, The Bone Valley on The Witty Writers Show. I'm so excited about it. 

Candace Robinson is awesome at writing dark fantasy that you can't put down.   

Here's the info and links for The Bone Valley.  

The Bone Valley Blurb:  

He’s a lover. She’s a thief.   A magic bond like no other will tie them together.  

After the death of his parents, Anton Bereza works hard to provide for his younger siblings. Love has never been in the cards for him, especially after desperation forces Anton to sell himself for coin. And he has no idea that, beneath the city of Kedaf, lies a place called the Bone Valley.  When Anton’s jealous client plots against him, he is cursed to spend eternity in a world where all that remains are broken bones. There, Anton meets Nahli Yan—a woman who once tried to steal from him—and his cards begin to change. But as the spark between them ignites, so does their desire to escape. All that stands in their way is the deceitful Queen of the Afterlife, who is determined to wield her deadly magic to break Anton and Nahli apart. Forever.  

Perfect for fans of Laini Taylor, Leigh Bardugo, Kerri Maniscalco, and Erin Morgenstern.   

Candace's Bio: Candace Robinson spends her days consumed by words and hoping to one day find her own DeLorean time machine. Her life consists of avoiding migraines, admiring Bonsai trees, watching classic movies, and living with her husband and daughter in Texas--where it can be forty degrees one day and eighty the next!

Dark fantasy author, Josephine Wrightson's book, Balance and Retribution was picked by the Facebook and Youtube members of the Bookclub hosted by, Heather Skinner. 

Beth Worsdell and, Heather Skinner chatted live on The Witty Writers Show with, Josephine Wrightson, asking her questions about her dark fantasy books, demons, dragons, and having a giggle   

Josephine Wrightson's Bio: Living in Devon, in a stunning cottage with my family, hubby, and two girls gives me much food for thought.  I’ve been writing on and off all my life. I just love words and the emotions they can stir.  I started writing in my early 20’s, but before then, I just read anything and everything. However, as life got in the way, and encouragement was lacking I didn’t keep it up.  After a strange couple of years and with the help and encouragement of my husband, who is my own hero, I decided life is too short and picked up writing again and I decided to try my hand at indie publishing. This is where I am now, even though my daughter cringes.  

Josephine Wrightson's dark fantasy and science fiction books are available from Amazon and most ebook platforms.
