Hi! My name is Grace and I just wanted to post about my progress with my new novel The Cursed Crown of Ash,
To be completely honest I'm mostly a fantasy author but this year I'm going to write a romance novel that I think you guys might like!
And to give you a little teaser, this novel is an enemies-to-lovers, slow burn, and forced proximity novel which also has a mix of fantasy and a little bit of violence and political power
ANYWAYS- I hope to see you soon and any constructive criticism is greatly appreciative
Bye<333
