Queen of the Wild Range is out TOMORROW! Would you do the biggest favor in the world for me? Would you celebrate by posting somewhere (anywhere!) about your excitement for the book? Facebook, TikTok, Instagram... MySpace (is that still a thing?). Wherever you "hang out" the most. Spreading the word to your world of people [...]
Here we go! It's officially launch week! Have you preordered a copy yet? If you plan to purchase the book (and I hope you do!), it would be a huge help if you went ahead and preordered. Preorders boost the popularity of the book on launch day, and there is power in numbers. The more [...]
Just three days until release day! Here's my big ask of the day: As you read these sneak peek chapters and prepare for reading the rest when you get your hands on it, would you please write a review? Whether it is on Amazon, Goodreads, or another platform, reviews are HUGE. (Think about it... how [...]
Happy Friday, friends! We're getting so close to launch day! How can you support me today/this weekend? It would be a massive help if you told at least one person about the book, whether you tell them in person, over text, or through social media. Word of mouth and personal recommendations are still the most [...]
Welcome back to Adia (finally!). It's time to check in with Tovi, Ganya, Silas, and many others, including my very favorite character and new resident of Adia (as of the last few chapters of Book 1): Eryx. This week I've been sharing these chapters AND ways you can support the book launch (thank you!!). Today's [...]
Welcome back for Day 2 of sharing chapters in the lead up to book release day! This is a chapter/scene that was in my imagination since long before I finished writing Book 1. The cave... the goo... these specific characters... All of this has been on my mind for years. (There's only one other scene [...]
Friends! ONE WEEK FROM TODAY is the big day! Queen of the Wild Range will launch on Tuesday, July 12, and it still seems a little unreal. To celebrate, I'm releasing one chapter every day this week! (Spoiler alert: read Book 1, Kingdom Above the Cloud, before reading these chapters!). Want to help spread the [...]
Today, we’re checking in with the Royal Family, including the heirs King Damien so fears. Like last time, stop reading here if you haven’t read Book 1! This whole post is full of spoilers. AND, keep the questions coming! I’m collecting questions from you in my inbox (info@maggieplatt.com) and private messages on FB and Instagram. [...]
The main question I have received since announcing Book 2 has been: “Was the writing process different this time? Has it felt different?” The answer is a resounding yes, and there is no better illustration than my ironic realization this morning. Let’s back up. For Book 1, I had a detailed spreadsheet with every different [...]
Eight months ago, I announced so many changes (new job, new house, returning to Indy), and then I went silent for eight months. Whoops! Well, I'm back, and it is finally time to get excited for Book 2! If you are one of the wonderful humans I have met since this move and you're thinking, [...]
