Whether you’re behind on the Threats of Sky and Sea series, or caught up with the books before Fall of Thrones and Thorns comes out next Tuesday, there are plenty of review opportunities!
For the first time, all three of the novels are available on Netgalley for review. But, hurry! Books 1 & 2 will only be up for about 2 more weeks.
Prefer to get it from me directly? You can always e-mail me. I’m happy to send e-books to bloggers and reviewers. You can request any of my novels or short stories, and I’ll send them right along.
Just had to come by and humble-brag about this high point in my author career! Threats of Sky and Sea had a promotion last week and reached #1 in my Amazon categories! I was an Amazon bestseller, guys! I was even hanging out on a list with my childhood writing idol, Tamora Pierce.
2016 is moving swiftly along and despite having been super sick twice already– once with a flu and currently with bronchitis– so many things are happening!
Liiiiike, the fact that the Riot of Storm and Smoke audiobook is available now!
Guys, I can’t even describe how much gushing I want to do over Grace Glass’s fantastic narration. Her enthusiasm for the project is so clear in her reading– and I followed along with her progress on her Facebook page (spoilers if you haven’t read Riot yet), so I knew how much she connected with the book. And honestly, if you have read Riot, you should pay her page a visit and give her a ‘like.’ I giggled a lot over her updates and I think you will, too.
She does such a beautiful job bringing Riot of Storm and Smoke to life. I mean, just listen to what a great job she does in the sample!

You may remember that I narrated the audiobook for Sisters of Wind and Flame myself and I plan to do the audio for Breathe In as well when my voice no longer sounds like a dying frog.
That’s led to me branching out and exploring the wide world of audiobook narration, and I’m pleased to say that I have a couple of projects out in the world!
My first project was One Dream Only, Elodie Nowodazkij’s prequel story to her novel, One Two Three. I loved getting the backstory of Natalya– it made my heart just break for her. I’ll also be doing the narration for One Two Three (again, when I get over this stupid disease) and I’m excited to delve further into Nata’s story.
And this week saw the release of my second fiction project, Madly, Deeply by Erica Crouch. In Madly, Deeply, Erica’s created a beautiful romance and a tragic reimagining of Edgar Allen Poe’s classic poem “Annabel Lee.” Erica really has a flair for beautiful language and it shines in this book.
Hello all! A blog! Two days in a row! This must be some sort of record for me. This one will be brief. I’m thrilled to welcome Breathe In to the ranks of published Threats shorts. Breathe In centers around Lady Corrine, a character you may not remember very much about, to be quite honest. She’s never appeared on page before and has been mentioned only briefly. She was Bree’s Da’s–Duke Ardin’s– wife. Breathe In is the closest to a love story that anything I’ve written in the Threats-verse has come and I just love Lady Corrine so much that I can’t believe I only “met” her a few months ago. She’s the sweetest character that I’ve written in ages and I am so glad that I was privileged enough to find her story, even if it hurt me (and my critique partners) to […]
Hey guys! I am so, so, SOOO excited to let you guys know about a really cool development with Threats of Sky and Sea today. A few months ago, the folks over at Booktrack reached out to work with me and create a Booktrack for Threats. I looked into Booktrack and was really WOW-ed by what I learned. A Booktrack is a movie-style soundtrack to coincide with text, complete with ambient sounds and dramatic scoring. It’s a super immersive reading experience that puts a reader more fully into the text by utilizing another sense for the experience. I’ve been lucky enough to preview what they’ve put together for Threats of Sky and Sea and it’s incredible. For a limited time, you can get the Threats of Sky and Sea Booktrack for just $1.99. For anyone worried– that includes both the Threats text and the accompanying Booktrack. Hurry, because while […]
Hey all! Today, I’m excited to reveal the blurb and cover for my next Threats of Sky and Sea prequel short, which will be available December 29, 2015! Every winter, the snow glitters like a pretty lie. The winter palace swarms with visiting nobles. And, Lady Corrine fights not to lose her breath. Because whether he means to or not, Duke Ardin steals it away. Available for pre-order exclusively on Kindle Add it on Goodreads And are you ready for the cover? ARE YOU? … … … … … GO! What do you think?
So, the title of this post is definitely a spoiler, but GUESS WHAT CAME TODAY! THAT’S RIGHT, MY FRIENDS! We finally have paperbacks for Book #2! You can find them unsigned and straight from the printer here. Or you can order them signed from me here. Excuse me now, while I stare at them lovingly for the rest of the week.
Happy book birthday, Riot of Storm and Smoke! Like your older sibling, Threats of Sky and Sea, I want to write you a letter on this, your release day. Like Threats, there were times I doubted we’d be able to get to this point. In writing you, there were often multiple steps back for every step forward. But unlike with Threats, I always knew where you, Riot, would start and end. It was just all of the stuff in the middle that took me a while to figure out. You were different and, like so many younger siblings, you struggled to define yourself. To stand apart from Threats of Sky and Sea. And boy, did you manage. To illustrate that point, I’ve pulled together a couple of small graphs for a few of these differences: Love you, Riot. Mean it. Your author, Jennifer Ellision Readers, you can now find Riot of […]
Just as I did for the book trailer for Threats of Sky and Sea, I made this trailer for Riot of Storm and Smoke myself! …I have a lot of fun with these things. Hope you enjoy and be sure to let me know what you think! ^_~ Riot of Storm and Smoke is available for pre-order on Amazon now.
