See Me As I Am

Hello, ghosts and ghouls!

As many of you know, myself, Evie Black, and Brian Scala started a bookish interview show in 2024 called Friday Night Writes. The goal of Friday Night Writes is to positively uplift members of the book community, be they authors, narrators, influencers, event coordinators, or readers.

Lately, my life has pulled me away from Friday Night Writes and forced me to focus more on my health, family, and author journey, so you won't see me hosting as often. However, I'm still around and working on things behind the scenes, including the Friday Night Writes charity anthology.

See Me As I Am is a collaboration between many talented authors who have been or will be interviewed as a part of the Friday Night Writes community. Thanks to these authors, we are bringing awareness to invisible disabilities, both mental and physical. Our goal is to release See Me As I Am on July 1st of this year and to begin the pre-order process on April 15th, one month from now. The proceeds from this anthology will be donated to NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness.

Today, we are officially sharing the anthology cover with the world, and I wanted to make sure you had a chance to see it, as well. So, without further ado, here it is:

If you would like more information about the anthology, be sure to follow Friday Night Writes on its social media platforms, especially the new Discord server. This is where we host the interviews and collaborate on Friday Night Writes projects. You can also contact us at fridaynightwritesinfo@gmail.com.

When the time comes, I hope you'll consider grabbing a copy of this upcoming release and shedding light on such an important subject, the disabilities we sometimes hide from the world or that aren't acknowledged because they can't be seen. Every page read will make a world of difference, and every copy sold will bring hope to those who feel lost in the shadows.

Happy hauntings and happy reading, everyone!
