The Werewolf Tour Continues!


This week’s tour dates for In Darkness: The Werewolf:


Sept 18 - Alex J. Cavanaugh and Top 10 Werewolf Movies

Sept 20 - J.Q. Rose and a recipe and feature
I’m also at the IWSG Anthologies site with Why Write a Series

Hope you caught last week’s interesting
tidbits:

Susan Gourley - How the Werewolf Legend Began

Nick Wilford - Interview

Tyrean Martinson - Fictional Werewolves

Podcast with Toi Thomas - the most unique author interview you will ever hear!



Thanks to those who have followed along and purchased a copy of The Werewolf. As I have discovered, the most difficult thing in the world is to promote one’s own work, especially in a new genre. Paranormal romance is hot, but it’s been tough reaching that audience.

In Darkness: The Werewolf’s Release and the Insecure Writer’s Support Group Celebrates 12 Years


It’s time for another edition of The Insecure Writer’s Support Group, founded by Ninja Captain, Alex J. Cavanaugh.

Today’s question: The IWSG celebrates 12 years today! When did you discover the IWSG, how do you connect, and how has it helped you?

I believe I joined when Alex first opened up the sign-up list. (And I’m one of the few remaining IWSG administrators – just me, Alex, and Michelle.) I follow and help with the Facebook group, and through Dancing Lemur Press, I follow the Instagram and Twitter/X groups.

How has it helped? How has it not? It’s a great way to connect with other writers, some who need help with this publishing stuff. I always recommend the website when teaching my seminars and I still have business cards that I hand out. #IWSGPit has led me to FIVE authors that signed with Dancing Lemur Press.

I’ve enjoyed these 12 years, even during times when I was frantically busy with DLP stuff and barely to keep up with my duties. Connecting with others who are supportive is so important.

Especially today, as I am posting a day early for a reason!

In Darkness: The Werewolf

Souls shrouded in darkness…
On her own in England, Vicki trains at a prestigious fencing school. Face marred by a birthmark, she’s suspicious of Nicholas’ attention. A dinner date reveals his genuine interest and they begin to connect. Nicholas is attractive and she wonders why he’s so shy and reclusive. 
 Then one evening she happens upon him changing into a lycan. Every werewolf legend is shattered by the gentle, fearful creature before her. Vickie accepts his secret, but Nicholas knows he’s an unpredictable beast. Can they trust love enough to overcome their physical challenges?

“The author's technique of raw, magnetic characters and great plotlines is a gift. A very unpredictable story, my favorite kind!” 5 stars – Amy’s Bookshelf Reviews

“This beautiful short story is both heartbreaking and heartwarming.” – Charlotte Butler, Archaeolibrarian

“Out of the many werewolf books there are to choose from, this is perhaps the sweetest, gentlest story in that genre that you’re likely to find. I’d even venture to say it’s a werewolf story for readers who don’t usually read paranormal books.” - Lori Alden Holuta, SciFi Radio

“I want more. I think that there is so much to discover. This author took time to develop this book and it was worth every second.” – On Review by Sara

“Another cozy romantic fantasy by Diane Wolfe…If you're interested in low stress, genuinely nice characters, a caring sweet romance, this book is perfect for you.” - Nat Kennedy, author
