Tales of Arvia

I am going to pop in very briefly tonight because I want to share something with you. Today was a pretty big day for my hubby. I think I mentioned before that he is an indie fantasy author and he created his own fantasy world where monsters are big and humans are small. He is writing the

Tales of Arvia

He has already published three novels as well as two novellas, of course, all taking place on Arvia and all are adult fantasy (despite the cute chibi look of the video preview below).

Currently, he is editing the third book of the Arvia series but each one is a stand-alone book and may be read independently from the others. The third book in the series will be published in May and today he released a video that explains a little bit of the background of the story and of Arvia itself.

So, that's why I thought I would share it here. This is the video, all video editing was done by my husband, and the art is by Papaya Style who has also done a book cover or two for his Arvia books.

It would be wonderful if you'd check out the video

And maybe even give it a πŸ‘ - that would be so awesome!!!

If you head on over to his website you may read a few sample chapters of the novellas for free to get to know his writing style.

Neither he nor I are marketing experts and it is really hard to gain a bit of traction for an indie author. But we are plugging away and he keeps writing because it is what he does. And I love it!

Here are a few of his book covers showing his love for fantasy to maybe give you a better feeling of the world of Arvia. You can all look them up on Amazon, Kindle KU, Apple, Goodreads - wherever. My personal favorite is Hazelhearth Hires Heroes - it's a bit more conventional with more human main characters but the tone is the same in all of them:

Fantasy humor all the way.



Anyways, that's it from me and my feeble attempt to shamelessly plug my husband's wonderful work πŸ€—.

Oh yeah, and - by the way - in all of his books, except the novellas, you will find artwork by yours truly 😊. I don't think I have shared any or much of my ink artwork on Hive but that is what you will find in the books. I'll give you a sneak peek of one of the maps that I did for Hazelhearth Hires Heroes. It is not the published version because this one here is missing the city names etc. but otherwise - it is the one.

So, I hope you don't mind too much that I am sharing this here but - what can I say - I am proud of what hubby does and has achieved so far but there are so many more lovers of fantasy stories out there that he could reach so that I feel the need to share it here as well.

Thank you for reading if you made it this far. Have a wonderful rest of your day.

Have a great rest of your day!

Cheers,
(Ocean)Bee

Oh, I absolutely am 100 % very proud of him. Especially for pulling this through despite, you know, not too much selling. Which is not only about money but also about people reading your art when you have put sooo much effort and more into it. !LUV

Congratulations to your husband! What an awesome accomplishment! I would be ashamed if you didn't plug him!!! That is one of the things that is a spouse's job!

Thank you so much for sharing with us and I hope to see more when you post them!

I see we understand each other 😍. Well, there will be a cover release, I think on 1/20 and then the book release at the beginning of May. So there may well be another couple of posts incoming.

Woo hoo! That is exciting to hear. Always so nice to see good things happening to nice people.

Let me know what you think if you do.

That's really cool! Good job to you and your husband! Him for doing the writing and you for the drawing! I love it. I will have to give it a look, thanks for the link! I read a few novellas in the past but sadly haven't done a lot of reading in a number of years but will see if this one wets my appetite for a good story!

Sounds like you and I are in the same boat with regard to reading. I used to always have a book glued to my nose - not so much anymore. Other interests came along and then time was the issue. Over the past few years I have gotten a bit into audio books but not nearly as much as I used to. Novellas are a good start though because you can just read through them in one go, maybe two.

I enjoyed the treasure one from what I read last night! Herbert was really motivated to get out of dodge and go with the mysterious cat lady lol I haven’t gotten a lot farther besides them walking through the portal but it sounds like he’s got the hots for her!
