Six Sentence Sunday: Meet Joss

His Faithful Squire is out in two weeks, but I’ve teased a lot from that book, so I thought I’d offer someone else. This is from a just-for-fun story I wrote, Fanged Bunny Slippers, that I may or may not share elsewhere sometime soon. Joss Ravid has a book of his own, but it doesn’t have […]
