by Kristine Grayson $6.99 ebook, $18.99 paperback, and now $24.95 audiobook.

We are tickled to announce that the first book in the Fates Trilogy by Kristine Grayson is now available from Audible.

“[Simply Irresistible] is an enchanting blend of sweet romance, mythology, and magic as Grayson puts her own unique magical stamp on figures from Greek myths and fairy tales, including a deliciously over-the-top super villain and a hero who inspired the creation of Superman.  And Grayson’s clever, humor-tinged writing is absolutely delightful.”

In this WMG Writer’s Guide, international bestselling author Kristine Kathryn Rusch discusses the destructive ways peer workshops and the quest for perfection derail many writers’ careers. Listening to critics and academics—amateur and professional—often strips out the joy of writing. And a failure to recognize writing as a business furthers the potential damage.

But Rusch offers hope for writers who have suffered at the hands of critique—external and internal—and outlines a path to healing.

Chapters in this book include:

Surviving cover webMost writers run their careers the same way they did in the 1990s. But publishing has changed so much since then that any writer who works on the old model will no longer make a living. In this short book, international bestselling writer Kristine Kathryn Rusch shows you how to think about the new world of publishing, who to trust, and who not to trust. She also gives you a blueprint for survival—what to learn, what to ignore, and how to find help. If you are a successful professional writer—or hope to become one—then this book is for you.

“I have friends who have absolutely relied on Rusch’s advice and it never leads them astray.”
—Orson Scott Card,
New York Times bestselling author
