Book Teaser Thursday

Here is another character aesthetic for FBD. Lydia Walsh-Bradstone is Vivian's surrogate mother. She was born August 26, 1821, is a Virgo and is 69 years old. She took Vivian in when she was 16 and helped to take care of her daughter. She is also a widow as her husband Leonard got sick and passed away, and she was never able to conceive any kids of her own, so she sees Vivian as a daughter. She and Vivian don't always see eye to eye when it comes to life and society, but they still care about each other and see each other as family.

Writerly Wednesday

Here is a quote from one of the characters of FBD, Aanya Singh. Aanya is Vivian's best friend, a psychic, empath, Libra, shop owner, and a pure soul. She looks at the good, forgets the bad, and sees things through rose-colored lenses. She is one of my favorite characters in the series.

Character Aesthetic

Minna-san, ohayou gozaimasu! 

It's time to meet a new character from Foreshadowed by Darkness. Meet Renée Knightly, Vivian's daughter. 

She has an important role in the novel and her role becomes even more prominent in book 2. She is 9-years-old and is an Aries, which means she has a fiery and determined personality, which will be evident in the series.

Character Aesthetic: Vivian Knightly

Here is my first official character aesthetic and book teaser for Foreshadowed by Darkness, book one of The Foreshadowed Series.

For those who don't know, Foreshadowed by Darkness is an adult paranormal mystery with a romantic subplot.

🔪 Here, you will explore nineteenth-century life, stroll through Central Park, and investigate a city plagued with the terrible crimes of a serial killer, all while aiding Vivian as she realizes just how close she is to the crimes.

Vivian Knightly, who is the MC of The Foreshadowed Series, is a 26-year-old investigative journalist and a medium due to past trauma.

If you enjoy reading about ghosts, mediums, and bloody murders, then you might like Foreshadowed by Darkness. 🩸

I am so excited to share with you more Foreshadowed by Darkness teasers and aesthetics as we continue along my novel-writing journey. Stay tuned for more!!! (❁´◡`❁)
