The B&N YA Book Club edition of The Luminaries is part of the 50% of hardcover sale on Barnes & Noble! I know many of you wanted to grab this edition, and now is the time—especially because there aren’t many left in stock!
What’s inside? A green hardcover casing and exclusive end pages that hint at the mystery on Winnie’s locket…😏
So hurry, hurry! Grab it, LumiNerds!
And just to wrap this up for your weekend, @hailey asked in my AMA:
How far are you in writing Witchlight?
I am almost exactly halfway. I say “almost” because I can’t quite gauge if I’m past the halfway point or not quite there yet…
I’ve also been stuck at this point for a while now. Which is totally normal for process—I can see where I want/need the story to go, but I am very particular about how my characters get there. I really don’t like “extra stuff” if I can help it, so I’ll spend literal months trying to find a solution that gets my characters from Point A to Point B in the most interesting, streamlined way possible.
I talk about that a bit in this post, actually, on my writing advice newsletter!
And I never “waste” the time, of course. While I was stuck, I wrote a ton of the third Luminaries book and dabbled in some other projects mentioned here. Also…Baldur’s Gate 3 came out just over a week ago, and y’all. Y’ALL. I haven’t been this sucked into a game since Deathloop. I am obsessed!
Gaming always inspires me to write, so this has been a great boost for my creative tinkering. On top of that, I had an awesome breakthrough yesterday, thanks to some brainstorming with my good pal Alex Bracken. I think it might be the THING I was looking for to get my characters more “fluidly” to where I know they need to be! 🙏
Thanks for the question, Hailey! And don’t gorget to grab that edition of The Luminaries while it’s so cheap.
Also, you can preorder both the US and UK editions of The Hunting Moon! Find those links here:
