BookCon was such an amazing experience! I met friends I had only spoken to online, I made new friends, and also got to explore incredible New York City! Of course, @morbid_smile and I had to get there first... . Check out the first in my BookCon video series, Day 1: Getting There! It all started at 3 AM on a Friday morning. . Find this video and more on YouTube at: Marlena Frank, Author . . #bookcon #bookcon19 #bookcon2019 #books #booklovers #bibliophile #bookish #author #authorlife #authorofinstagram #writersofinstagram #travel #flying #airport #airportlife #newyork #newyorkcity #atlanta #atlantaga #hartsfieldjackson #travelproblems #airplane #clouds #beautiful #youtube #youtuber #authortube #authortuber @theparliamentpress

Broken: Book 2 of the Stolen series is due out next year, and I’ve been busy working on edits! What do you think of this little inspiration board? ❤️ . So much to do, so little time. That’s been my mantra lately. . After BookCon, it’s been hard to motivate myself to do more than sit and veg out. Yes, I’ve gotten a lot of reading in, but my writing projects don’t wait! May was a really busy month for us, between art competitions with @morbid_smile , festivals with @jordachio30 , and not to mention the amazing weekend for MomoCon and the weekend right after for BookCon. I think my brain just needed some really important down time for a little bit, but I’m getting back at the keyboard again. . That con and festival life will wear you out! Speaking from experience, give yourself the time you need to breathe and think. As an introvert, I think this time is even more precious. ❤️ . So expect to see progress pics in my story soon for Broken! I honestly can’t wait to continue Shaleigh’s story, and to introduce you to so many incredible characters. 😊🙌 . . #authorlife #writingcommunity #authorsofinstagram #inspo #moodboard #broken #brokenbymarlenafrank #thestolenseries #worldofstolen #shaleigh #mawr #teagan #talek #fae #fairies #bookshelf #bookstoread #coming2020 #yafantasy #yafantasybooks #fantasybooks #fantasyworld #amediting #writersofinstagram #fantasyseries @theparliamentpress #cantwait #books

📣📣Attention all #bookbloggers #librarians #bookstagrammer and #booksellers . Stolen, my debut novel, is out on #netgalley only for the month of June! Hop on over and request a copy while it’s available cause this month is going by fast. This is Book 1 of a YA Fantasy trilogy. . . . STOLEN . By Marlena Frank . It’s difficult taking care of a delusional father by yourself. Sixteen-year-old Shaleigh Mallet would rather explore and photograph dilapidated buildings than cater to her father’s dark episodes. But when she’s kidnapped by a creature who carries her atop a flying bicycle into another world, she realizes this wasn’t the escape she wanted. . In a kingdom known as the Garden, where minotaurs pull carriages and parties are held in hot air balloons, Madam Cloom and her faerie servant, Teagan, rule over the land with incredible but terrifying magic. Shaleigh must prove that she is the reincarnation of a long-dead ruler, not because she believes it, but because it’s her only chance to survive. With the help of a trespassing faerie, a stoatling, and a living statue, Shaleigh hopes to outwit everyone. She aims to break the bonds of servitude and finally make her way home. What she doesn’t realize, however, is that she’s playing right into the hands of a far worse enemy... . . #yafantasy #fantasybooks #portalfantasy #readersofinstagram #bloggersofinstagram #bookstagram #librariansofinstagram #teachersofinstagram #diversity #mentalillness #fae #yalit #yalovin #booklovers #indie #indieauthor #darkfantasy #fantasy #netgalleyreads #supportindieauthors #indiepublishing @theparliamentpress @aurelialeoco

If you bought a copy of Stolen from me at #BookCon thank you so much! I hope you enjoy Shaleigh’s journey! . I had to reblog this gorgeous #bookstagram from @wizardrylibrary from a while back. There were so many gorgeous pics of Stolen during the book tour a few weeks back that it’s going to take me a while to share them all, but I totally intend to cause y’all made some beautiful pics! . I’m digging the aesthetic here so very much! I can’t tell y’all how great it is to see my words not only wrapped in such a gorgeous cover but in such beautiful pics too! ❤️💕 . . #books #booklovin #yareads #yafantasy #yalit #iloveya #ireadya #yafiction #fantasy #fae #faeries #minotaur #portalfantasy #fantasybooks #escape #mentalhealth #imaginaryplaces #imaginaryworlds #amazonbestseller #authorsofig #authorsofinstagram #worldofstolen #mawrlove #stolenbymarlenafrank #garden #plants @theparliamentpress
