Big Direbound art reveal & pre-release jitters!
You won't want to miss this character art, trust me!
Hi everyone,
Welcome new subscribers! You’re joining at a pretty crazy moment… because Direbound, book one of the epic new romantasy series Wolves of Ruin, comes out TOMORROW!
Co-writer and I have been both very excited and also not a little bit jittery and anxious as the big day approaches.
You know what’s helping, though? Staring at beautiful art… and wow do I have something gorgeous to share with you all today — as usual, as a sneak preview for newsletter subscribers ahead of the social media reveal!
Quick note before we get to the art: please wait to share any of this art until I’ve revealed it on my own social media tomorrow!
Is release day eve a thing? My family has always used “eve” for all sorts of things… like how the day before Christmas Eve also feels a bit special? That’s Christmas Eve Eve!
Or the day before your birthday? Your birthday eve!
So in honor of Release Day Eve for Direbound….
We’ve been cooking up this art of the three main characters of Direbound for weeks and weeks, working with amazing artist Hillary Bardin (website) (instagram) to get Meryn, Killian, and Stark just right.
It’s been great fun also working with multiple artists, because as you’ll see, the interpretation our other lovely artist Takacukasa did of Meryn is quite different than Hillary’s version.
But I have a feeling you’re going to love them both!
Ready to take a look?
here it is…
!!!!!
…..and another look at each character individually….
I’ll just be over here sighing happy sighs and staring at all the beauty, don’t mind me!
One last reminder - please do not share until after I’ve revealed this art on my socials! Thank you 💗
Also, um, have I mentioned that release day is tomorrow?!
If you are an early reader of Direbound and you haven’t already posted reviews, please rate and review Direbound on Amazon and on the social media / reading platforms of your choice! BookBub, Goodreads, Storygraph, Fable, Threads… wherever book chatter is happening, please feel free to post!
And tell a friend — tomorrow you can grab the ebook of Direbound on Kindle or Kindle Unlimited, or buy the paperback from Amazon, B&N, Bookshop.org — or you can call your local bookshop and ask them to order you a copy!
You’ve all been so amazing and supportive and kind leading up to this big day. Huge thank you in advance for all your help with release day buzz 🐝
With so much gratitude,
Sable
