I had so much fun with this last year (and grew my TBR–plus a few others’), that I’m bringing it back. In the spirit of “a rising tide lifts all boats,” for Self-Published Authors Appreciation Week I wanted to give some Self-Published authors a chance to spread some love.
(They also get to do a bit of self-promotion, I mean, c’mon, it’s hard out here…)
I’m bending the rules a little bit here, Watson describes herself as “unfamiliar with other self published works.” Which makes her a great person to start the week with–Self-Published Author Appreciation Week’s purpose is to celebrate and spread the word about self-published authors, right? So here’s a chance to get her familiar with some–either from her inclusion in this series (and I hope she checks out later installments) or through comments here.
My Elevator Pitch by K. Q. Watson
Clipped is the story of Zak, an engineer up in the Heavens, where the Exalted reign over Earth. After his son is born without wings, and cast from the Heavens, Zak chooses to sacrifice his own wings and fall to earth.
There, he must live as a mortal among mortals in a world ruined by corruption and sin. As he fights to find his place in this new existence, he is confronted by deadly angel hunters, false prophets, and cities of hedonism and blasphemy.
In his travels he comes across a conspiracy that could bring down the Heavens and make every exalted Angel above fall to the hell on earth below.
About this Author
K. Q. Watson is the cyborg that you don’t take home to meet your parents. She looks innocuous and gentle, but there are oodles of satanic death metal songs continually playing in her head. Sometimes, when she’s all alone, she thinks back to some of her favourite episodes of Intervention and the best scenes from The People Under the Stairs.
She writes because what else is she going to do, let’s be real here.
One legged Canadian who likes The Dark Crystal more than she will ever like you.
The characters in her head keep her sane.
