Who has four thumbs and is publishing their first eBook??? MEL AND I.
After much needling from family and friends, we’ve decided to release the first couple of episodes of Hug Your Local Werewolf as ePubs. No more tedious screen reading, y'all get to browse this puppy on your eBook reader of choice.
With this in mind, we’re releasing a few Patreon-exclusive rewards that we thought might interest y'all.
All eBooks will be free for patrons
Patrons will receive a shoutout in the thank you section of the eBooks
Patrons will receive a personalised copy of the episode one eBook
Sound like your cup of tea? To get these rewards, you just have to sign up to be a patron before the end of the month.
As well as these new rewards, patronage gets you first access to episodes, behind-the-scenes insight into the project, invitations to live writing sessions, and more. Sound rad?
Werewolves? Found families? Hopepunk sensibilities? Queer rep? HELL YES.
Eli Swann flies so far under the radar, he’s eating dirt. He’s been called a lot of things.
Boring.
Loner.
Hey new kid, what’s your name again?
All that changes when he’s attacked by a monster in the woods on Halloween night.
Suddenly werewolves are real and he’s got a raging case of pack instincts. Throw in an unlikely accord with two sisters from a neighboring pack and no idea how he’s going to make it through the next full moon, and Eli’s got more than enough to deal with.
So, of course, the captain of the baseball team might also be trying to kill him. This would sting less if Eli hadn’t had a crush on the guy since arriving in town.
Eli’s simple existence just grew teeth—he might be the only thing holding back a supernatural menace, and he still has to pass Bio.
Life is hard for Rose Lake’s local werewolf.
Hug Your Local Werewolf is a serialized hopepunk urban fantasy story about a newly-bitten werewolf learning to navigate love, the supernatural, and his biology homework—and hopefully survive all three.
It’s entirely written fiction, released episodically much like a TV Show. This means you can expect regular doses of werewolf shenanigans throughout the month.
And hey, the best part? It’s free to read.
How the hell is it free? You can thank our awesome squad over on Patreon for that. For as little as $1 a month, they’re ensuring the success of this project. As thanks, they get first access to episodes, behind-the-scenes insight, author Q&As and more.
If you’re in a position to pledge, we’d love to have you. If not, that’s okay too – there are other ways you can help us out, such as:
The Blake house looks like something that would make a Jane Austen heroine gasp delicately on approach. It’s huge, hogging the curve of the entire cul-de-sac. There are giant columns bracketing a door you could drive a car through and high, arched windows that look like they should have ghosts lurking on rotation. It’s one of the oldest buildings in town mostly because the Blakes are one of the oldest families in town. Eli knows this because half the goddamn place is named for them.
As Eli and Isabelle near the mansion Eli becomes very aware he’s wearing a tracksuit with dollar store craft paint on it. Light and laughter is spilling out the entryway and Eli feels like he’s approaching the mouth of hell, trying not to breathe on the Rolls Royce parked in the drive as he goes.
Isabelle speeds up as they reach the front steps, all but dragging him in her wake.
“Come in!” She says, excitedly. “I’ve been learning foxtrot!”
That sounds … like Eli’s worst nightmare. Not least because Isabelle seems to think he should already be schooled in ballroom dancing. Oh god, there’s probably a ballroom. He digs his heels in at the door, rebounding back like some sort of underprivileged vampire. “No, I should—”
“Isabelle!”
They both look up at the new voice. And it’s—
It’s Owen Blake. Owen Blake hurrying toward them down a frankly unnecessary set of ostentatious marble stairs. It’s like every fantasy Eli’s definitely never had after watching She’s All That when he was eleven. Jesus, he’s even in formal wear.
“You’re in so much trouble,” Owen says. And yeah. Eli knows.
Because Owen looks like he should have a soundtrack. Like his gracing a room should be accompanied by an enterprising yet authentic indie rock song. A song that says, Hey there, this is The Guy, the one with the really nice shoulders and the tousled hair. He could whip out an acoustic guitar at any moment and you’d be legitimately into it, isn’t that disgusting?
Eli’s spent a lot of time being offended in Owen’s presence.
