Kai Bishop was born and raised in New Brunswick, Canada, where he became fascinated with fantasy and sci-fi from a young age. He writes and publishes under the names Apollo Blake and Cosmo Knox. A massive lover of books, film, video game, and comics, he decided to become a writer when he was twelve years old, and never looked back. His favorite genres are urban fantasy and paranormal romance, he loves both outlining and discovery writing and switches between them from project to project, always listens to music when writing, and his favorite part of the writing process is drafting. He loves animals, sketching, gaming, cooking, and journaling, and spends most of his spare time reading, making music, and looking after his cats and dogs. He is sometimes sane, but mostly not, and almost always overthinking, which actually helps with the writing a lot.
It's NaNoWriMo 2020 time! Yay! This is my current NaNo project and I'm super excited about it. It's a gay paranormal romance with lots of action, snark, kissing, and basically some insane ancient spirits who take human hosts and draw power from different emotions. Because I love emotion-based magic. So we have spirits here who embody some emotions, others who embody actions or ideals, etc.
Excerpt:
“Hershey is the Embodiment of sarcasm,” Kaeden confirmed.
I huffed. “Of course the god of sarcasm is a teenage boy. Who else would it be?”
“It used to be some ugly old lady,” Hershey replied honestly. He shrugged. “She dead now.”
“Hershey!” Banner snapped, but his shoulders shook with silent laughter.
Easton McHayle is the semi-famous heir to the McHayle real-estate and tourism empire. Kaeden Briggs is the Embodiment of balance; he protects fragile humans from the spirit world to keep the balance between both. But now a dangerous Embodiment is after Easton, and as he's caught up in immortal mind games, he and Kaeden will be forced to trust and rely on each other in order to figure out what's really going on here...
So. That's that. More news and a cover coming later this month or early December!
