New cover time! Ants Waking warranted it...I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Get it in hardback and ebook in bookstores worldwide! #fantasy #sff #bookstagram #art

I want to give a big thank you to Rose @rosebud_bookshop , @igor_o_rocha , David, and everyone who came out to see the literary discussion and reading! ~RJ

Hello there. RJ here. I wrote a fantasy novella called ANTS WAKING that just came out in time for Halloween! I just got my author copies and I’m signing/remarquing these gorgeous hardbacks. It would mean a lot to me if you considered picking this book up, especially if you want a new take on Edgar Allan Poe. Thank you. @runeworks #Halloween #EdgarAllanPoe #fantasy #fantasyreads #sff #bookstagram #booktok

Adoro Portugal.

My fellow writers, it was both a privilege and a thrill to host last night’s fiction #writing #workshop for @justwriteporto . Your words and deeds place you in the company of heroes and warriors of the craft; and it was inspiring! Thank you. As I forgot to take a picture to document the event, I am placing here a pic of a similar meeting of greats working toward something vital! #porto #portugal #onwriting #writingscene #portowritingscene

I am delighted to say my Stark Beginnings Fiction Workshop for May 12th is now SOLD OUT but there is a waitlist and an Online Workshop I am teaching Saturday May 16th that has some remaining seats open: /attend/ #writing #onwriting @justwriteporto @double_edged_press

Looking to read a visceral tale of magic, grief and survival? Explore the world of Erica, an autistic and trans college student. This is a story about self-discovery, loss and courage written by @runeworks . For every copy sold, R.J. Huneke will donate $1 to GATE and $1 to @autisticselfadvocacy 🏳️‍⚧️ Comment "Erica" and learn how to order yours. Thank you so much @runeworks

Here’s a reminder, I’m teaching a fiction workshop on story openings in May, once in-person with @justwriteporto in Porto and once online with @double_edged_press . Check it out on Meetup and doubleedgedpress.com/attend/ #writing #onwriting #portugal #nyc

Thrilled to have my daughter enjoy her first Comic Con, have some family nerf gun battle time there, to sit in on an @andrelimaaraujo panel (a favorite artist), and to see the ever gracious author of many of my favorite Batman books @ssnyder1835 ! #comicconportugal #Liberdadefeliz #portugal #comics

Paper. Lots of paper. And pens. Ink. I’ll type it up when I get the soul of it down on the page. #writing #freeyourself #fai #sff

Girl…you don’t have to play by their rules to publish your book. And no, you don’t have to self-publish either. Book publishing is competitive, with thousands of new titles hitting the market every day. Who wins and loses in this industry is not a fair game. After working as writers and in editorial for years, we (co-founders Cassie Sinclair and R.J. Huneke) said enough and started our own independent press. WAIT, ARE WE CRAZY FOR DOING THIS?! Maybe a little haha (it’s a requirement for this industry) but like you, we are crazy passionate about books AND we want to bring your’s to life. More about us 👉 As an indie press, we publish quality speculative fiction. Since launching earlier this year, we are on our way to curating a limited amount of science fiction and fantasy novels for publication. Manuscript submissions are open! If you want a dedicated editorial, production, and marketing/pr team for your book, check us out and submit. Did I mention we provide 85% net royalties for our authors? Trad publishers aren’t the only ones who get to make their own rules 😈 Xoxo Cassie Editorial Director #indiepublishing #publishyourbook #publishingtips #fictionwriters #bookpublishing

This is what the fantasy novel editing process looks like for me this week. Cheers! #writing
