Magic Morsel - Kindle Vella

Wow, it's been a while since I've blogged. I blame summer with the kids home! Guess what, though? They're back in school! More time for my writing endeavors.

This should be a quick post. Maybe next time I'll gush over one of the Disney+ Marvel series - lol.

I decided to jump into the deep end with a new project. Yeah, I know, I have tons of other writing projects that need my attention. The thing is, Amazon decided to launch this new publishing platform called Kindle Vella. It specializes in episodic stories, kind of like Wattpad.

Initially, I wasn't going to jump in, but then I had an idea (well, actually, I had the story idea a few months ago, but decided it would fit nicely with serial publication). And then I fiddled around with the art. Isn't it neat? I love it. Which then meant I really needed to just write the damned story.

So, that's what I've been focusing on since the end of June. The first episodes went live in July!

Oh you want me to tell you what it's about and how all this Kindle Vella stuff works? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Sounds like the start of a bad joke, right? Lila, the owner of the Magic Morsel, definitely agrees. She's a tech mage who manages the only neutral ground in the Triopolis area, which means she's stuck brokering deals between all kinds of humanoids. Her grandmother taught her well, though, and she's determined to keep Gammy's track record of no major incidents.

Then a half-elf walks into the bar...

That's the blurb for Magic Morsel, and at the time of this post, I have 12 episodes available on Kindle Vella. I'll be adding a new episode every Friday until the story is complete.

The best thing is, you can read the first three episodes for FREE! Once you get through those three, though, you'll need to purchase tokens to unlock further episodes.

If you do decide to give the free episodes a whirl, please give them a like if you enjoyed them. Similar to reviews, every like is helpful.

And... I think that's all I've got. I hope you enjoy Magic Morsel. Happy reading!
