Free young adult fantasy book / metaphysical fiction / magical realism / Buddhist fiction.

January 23, 2016 by Tahlia Newland

Free young adult fantasy book / metaphysical fiction / magical realism / Buddhist fiction.

This free young adult fantasy book is also metaphysical fiction because of its emphasis on using meditation techniques to defeat demons, and it's also magical realism because the fantasy is all an analogy or metaphor for reality. The demons are your negative emotions, and the journey Ariel takes to the top of the Diamond Peak through the four books of the Diamond Peak series is the journey to enlightenment. It's also Buddhist fiction, because the main characters have a Buddhist world view. So if you like the idea of Twilight or the Mortal Instrument series but with a touch of something spiritual, this series is for you, and you can start off with the first book for free by signing up to my newsletter. I won't inundate you with emails and you can unsubscribe at any time.   Get it Free Here Download the publicity sheet in PDF with clickable links here Authors, find out about sell sheets like this one on the AIA Publishing blog. … [Read more...]

A real darling: free ebook for 5 days only.

June 21, 2014 by Tahlia Newland

There's a lot of free ebooks around , but if you haven't read this little charmer already, you really should. I defy anyone to not enjoy it. It's free on Kindle until the 24th of June, and I'll give you your money back if you don't enjoy it. Every morning, Norris watches his goddess walk to the bus stop in front of him, the gap between them far wider than the physical distance. This morning, she stumbles. He wants to run and help her, but finds himself stuck in a hole that appeared along with his self-doubt. By the time he gets out, she’s long gone. He vows that if it happens again, he won’t hesitate, but when she falls the next day, he has more than just his own hole to deal with. Can he find his heroic self before she walks away? What readers are saying. "This was one of the sweetest most encouraging stories I have read in a while. Change your way of thinking, change your life. Awesome!" D.M.Evans "The name 'Norris' tells you everything you need to know about this short story. … [Read more...]

Don’t miss this moving short story about facing death: It’s FREE until the end of the month

September 28, 2013 by Tahlia Newland

A lovely, surprising tale, told with warmth and depth, this surreal short story switches between an ancient world and our modern one. Is the main character an unwilling sacrifice to foreign gods, or a modern woman battling deadly cancer?  Who is dreaming who? Through juxtaposing seemingly different life experiences, we find a poignant commonality between the characters as they face death. FREE until the end of the month. Download it now on Amazon And don't forget to write a review . What readers are saying. 'Not Me, it Can't Be' is far more haunting than any short story should be. As in much of Newland's work, the lines between fantasy and reality are blurred to the extent where the reader is left wondering which is the imagined and which is the real world. The juxtaposition of the two women's situations raises big questions which are delicately crafted so they linger in the mind long after reading. I love a haunting story though and this one is beautiful." Rose, Goodreads … [Read more...]
