Series Launch Plan
Because the selection of authors for the Otherworldly Emergence Novella Series are widespread; we have decided to complete an online launch for the series. As we are a West Australian based company, we have decided to celebrate on a Friday night. Not just any Friday night, it is my Birthday.
Everyone who attends the launch will get an exclusive poster of the series and have an opportunity to celebrate with the Authors and Creators that are in attendance. There will be a cha

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 13-13
Book 13 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fiction Novella series is Hidden Heritage by J A Duxbury. This was another one I was lucky enough to be a beta reader for. The second book that Julz pitched for the series and I had heard so much about it during the process of this series development that I was really excited to read it.

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 12-13
Book 12 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fiction Novella series is Echoes of the Lattice by Sidney Rowan. I was lucky enough to be a beta reader for this story and I was instantly immersed into the fantastical realm Sidney had created. I knew when it was pitched that it was going to be something special and I was not wrong.

Moving Offices
I work from home. We had a small office that was set up for minor accounting things and has a lot of sundry supplies that we don't really have the room for. But, as one of the benefits of becoming an empty nester is that I was able to shuffle around some rooms. It was hubbies idea to start with, but after he mentioned it I couldn't really get it out of my mind. We relocated the left over furniture and supplies from the girls and then we combined them into one room. This made

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 11-13
Book 11 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fiction Novella series is Monsters and the Disturbed by Ryan Null. There have been sweeping changes for Ryan throughout the OWE development. He was one of the first people that submitted a pitch for the series after being interviewed for the Finding Elara Podcast. This story is particularly gritty and am sure it is going to be a favourite for those who enjoy paranormal action.

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 10-13
Book 10 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fictions Novella series is Captured by Cave Hills by Aribela Evans. This is a wonderful paranormal Cosy story that I have enjoyed seeing come to like on the page. The poetic way in which Aribela writes always sweeps me away when I listen to her read a chapter. I am so excited to share this book with the world.

Otherworldly Emergence - My journey
I don't know when it started, date wise, but I met Dianna some time in 2024. She'd just started up BCP Creations and wanted to put out a collaborative novella series.

Hear yee Hear yee
Getting your book out into the world is quite the achievement, but it doesn't end there. There are more than and estimated 22k books released each year in Australia alone. Then you have to consider; when you are on the internet it is an international Market! I couldn't even guess how many books are released annually worldwide. There are so many creatives striving for attention.

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 9-13
Book 9 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fictions Novella series is Baby Fang by Olivia Krein. This story has had a couple of different title over the course of its creation but the story concept has held strong throughout. Olivia has been very active in the writers group, open to sharing her ideas and helping out. She is passionate and inspiring and I hope that people enjoy the story when it comes out.

All The Hats
It doesn't matter what job you have, there are times when it can feel like you need to wear a number of different hats to get through the day. There is (in no particular order) the creative hat, marketing hat, family hat, identity hat ... and so many more! I don't know if there is or should be a way of integrating these personalities. You would have to ask a professional about that. But, I feel that if you work on your core values, you can strengthen your drive for these shif

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 8-13
Book 8 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fictions Novella series is The Final Crone by DL Nix. It is completely self serving when I say this is my favourite book of the series, because if you don't enjoy what you write and find passion in the craft then what are you doing it for? I am so proud to be a part of this series of books and to have met a community of authors. We have kept each other accountable and pushed each other every step of the way. I look forward to h

Starting at Dawn
There is an alignment that settles over me when I get up early in the morning compared to sleeping in. I feel as though sleeping in equals missing out on so much. Normally it isn't a dramatic sleep in. But a sleep in none the less makes me feel like I didn't do what I was meant to. I think this is something that I need to work on.
I was riding every day in the mornings but that fell through after a time and I didn't even get a chance to see the sunrise. I would get up with h

OWE ANNOUCEMENT - Title 5-13
Book 5 of the Otherworldly Emergence Speculative Fictions Novella series is Not your Normal Heroes by J A Duxbury. This is the first story that was pitched for the series.
I met Julz on Facebook while I was just starting out with Bushland Castle Productions and she has stayed onboard as a creative consultant. This is not her only book in the series too, I am releasing these 'name drop' posts in order of release, but you will see her second book soon. For people who have bee
