I would point out that these rifts could just as easily connect different parts of the Empire in the same world. There are also the issues of how stable the rifts are, how much can be transported through them, and the rituals/materials required to keep them functional. If they are continually...

I have tried ads on Facebook, Amazon, and elsewhere. I have taken out triple-digit promo spots more than once, and more double-digit promo spots than I care to think about. The vast majority of those promos resulted in single-digit sales. Then I noticed that properly targeted low-end promos -...

Skip! You're back! I was getting concerned.

Medieval Style Fantasy... Okay, I read a lot (though not as much these past few months). There is a huge number of works that are often lumped into this category, but don't fit the bill. 'Wizard of Earthsea' is definitely fantasy, but not medieval. Nortons 'Witch World' is fantasy, but...

I am reminded of the #hashtags some of the promo sites ask for when I take out ads with them. Usually, there is a top limit of five or seven of these. I usually go with stuff like - #knights, #wizards, #horror, # eldritch, #intrigue, #demons, #empire, #unrest, #war

Facebook is infested with these scammers. One either hacked or impersonated a best-selling author. like this one, though, that scammer had a messed-up profile. Many FB book sites ban promoters altogether, sometimes extending that ban to include anything 'fiver.' For that matter, most of the...

Cute. Might try offering it up to an online magazine.

Even the 'normal' characters should have quirks or issues that set them apart from the norm.

I must note that many of those publications appear to be dead and others are not currently accepting submissions.

There is this site... https://richiebilling.com/writing-tools/list-of-fantasy-magazines#MAG1

you know you are a writer when you decide to chronicle the activities of your cat who vanished for fourteen hours and returned with battle damage.

There is real-world precede for something like this in 'recent prehistoric times.' A tsunami in the Pacific badly damaged the coastal regions of Australia and South America - the waves were calculated to be 1000 feet tall and hurled gigantic boulders miles inland. This event was so traumatic...

It is a library. Make it two books - one being the journal and the other the religious text.

You just described the reasoning for the 'Eldritch World,' though I added the giant moon to stabilize the arrangement.
