My employer has decided that they'd rather split my salary between two people outside the US than continue paying for me, so I'm staring down the barrel of unemployment at the end of this month (again). This is bad news for my immediate financial needs, but good news for my writing time. [1/2]

I'm polishing and submitting some stories in the hope they might generate a little income. Beasts & Brutality is down to just the cover and printing prep work. There's also a non-fiction book I'm determined to complete while I have time. Maybe, someday, I won't need a fickle IT day job. [2/2]

The IT world's loss honestly Beasts & Brutality already has me curious just from the name what are you working with here?

Dark fantasy with themes like slavery and genocide done through an anthropomorphic lens that's actually a really powerful way to tackle those subjects there's something about distance from reality that makes the weight hit even harder is this more Grimdark survival or does hope sneak in somewhere?

Oh, this is the bite-sized snack of grief before the full buffet of misery. The characters have a long way to go on their journey...

So you're basically handing readers an appetizer of suffering and saying oh don't worry the real meal is coming I respect the commitment to chaos how many books are you planning for this world?
