Here is a beautiful painting of such a lovely couple standing close together, holding hands, and looking into one another's eyes. The painting is full of rich acrylic colors and textures, and it captures the warmth and joy of the wedding day.

#ScribesAndMakers 12. Shameless self-promotion day. Show us what you're proud of. Let's boost away.

I wrote a romance about a woman with chronic illness moving to a country town where she (eventually) falls in love with a farmer. Contains a depressed and lazy dog needing to be rescued, gossip, vandalism, a harvester fire, a motor vehicle accident and a pub brawl.

Rosie also upsets the Local History Association and finds out the truth about her notorious ancestor Decima.

Based in an imaginary town, Rakali Springs, in the Australian grainbelt (think Wagga Wagga, Cowra). Not spicy. I'm proud of this story.

Every month, we do a cool thing on QueeRomanceInk.com to support indie writers. We share 4 of their books with our readers for free, and then add those readers (only with permission) to the author lists. It's a great way to get some new reads, "meet" a few up and coming authors, and forge new connections. :)

This month's books are below. Grab 'em here (we send them out around the 3rd of next month):

Dangerous Women Project · Margaret Oliphant and the Romantic Novel - Dangerous Women ProjectOne of Scotland's lesser known but most prolific writers, Margaret Oliphant, subtly subverted 19th century society's expectations in her romance novels.

🖤 My novel GODHUNTER will be available in audio starting on April 8th, narrated by Marnye Young. I’m so excited to share this trailer with everyone!

🖤 If you’re interested, the universal book link in my profile lists some of the marketplaces where you can order it, but I couldn’t get them all up. When in doubt, please try a search! I hope it will be available in libraries too.
