Hey there!

I'm CKMo, and I'm a taiwanese high fantasy indie author. I'm trying to bring more works with influences into western culture via my novels.

You can find all my publishing sites, social media, and discord server in my bio!

The video is made using a still picture of a dimly lit, antique looking library wall. The wall is illuminated by a row of hanging Edison lightbulbs. The books on the shelves appear to be arranged somewhat haphazardly. Partially covering the library image, in the center of it, is a black frame with a darker, semi-transparent background which adds a worn look to the picture behind it. In this frame are a set of captions in antique gold with a black outline, which read in this order: "Looking for a new indie author to support? Check out my high fantasy series, Below the Heavens! Here’s what you’ll find inside: A detailed world crafted from scratch with its own unique magic system and political struggles. A realm full of dragons, spirits, magical auramasters, and battles for power and control! A charismatic protagonist using his quick wits to try to survive in this tumultuous world and find his way back home. A large and diverse cast of likeable (and not likeable) supporting characters and antagonists! A free, multi-book series in the works. Book one out now!"

Is anyone listening to the audio version of Making It So by Sir Patrick Stewart?

Besides the fact he could read me the phonebook, his narration is glorious storytelling. I can imagine sitting next to him, anywhere on the planet, listening to him share these stories.

He shares tales during his time working on Dune, which are, well, David Lynch worthy. And! You will gain a strong appreciation of all the times Shakespeare figured into Star Trek TNG plots.

Today's review! Jake Monroe & the Case of the Missing Mermaid by Arthur Griffin:

"Well written. The trials and tribulations of being a PI, especially one with a paranormal caseload, are vividly portrayed. Recommended for romance readers who like their mysteries spiced with a little paranormal."

A LONG-FORGOTTEN LITERARY GEM from 1938, reissued in a sumptuous new edition. Beautifully stark modernist novel traces the gradual diminution of a woman’s life with pitiless clarity. A MINUS

when do you abandon a book?
I'm not very good at it, but I might be about to do it again.

@Helen50 @bookstodon To my detriment never, there was a reason why I chose that particular #book in the first place so I tend to stick with it till the end.

🧵 1/ Perhaps you know this feeling: unpleasant current events come thick and fast, & & can almost paralyse us. What's really good then: immersing yourself in , shifting perspectives. What was it like on this between the ice ages and the greenhouses? Why was the never empty even when it looked desolate? And how does work?

You’re truly One of the Kind is an adorable picture book about diversity and cherishing our individuality. It shares a sweet message of confidence, love and friendship. I love how Sonali Patodia uses Indian mythology and culture to explore all these concepts.

I remember when I read Eragon for the first time nearly twenty years ago. How exciting to discover the latest book of the series released a few weeks ago !

Master storyteller and internationally bestselling author Christopher Paolini returns to the World of Eragon in this stunning epic fantasy set a year after the events of the Inheritance Cycle. Join Dragon Rider—and fan favorite—Murtagh and his dragon as they confront a perilous new enemy!
