[close] Welcome to the House of Llianne Olivo — a gathering space for readers who crave romance in every shade, shape, and form. Here you will find sweet stories, dark tales, spicy scenes, taboo corners, speculative twists, paranormal secrets, contemporary ache, and moments touched by mysticism and ghostlight that linger long after the last page. This group is for readers who want more than just a book on a shelf. Join if you want early access to my new releases as an ARC reader, or if you want to be part of my street team or beta circle. Here you can help pick tropes, share your preferences, and shape what I write next. I share giveaways, signed copies, bookmarks, and sometimes special extras through my Etsy shop. I release books weekly — Kindle Unlimited drops, Wattpad freebies, wide paperbacks and ebooks, and future audiobooks. I post behind-the-scenes confessions, raw thoughts about the industry, and honest updates on what it costs to build stories that bruise sweet. Many of my stories drift through shadows of spirituality and old myths — creatures of night and day, ghosts, forgotten gods, and whispered secrets. If that resonates with you, you will find it here, woven softly into the bones of each book. I hope to visit book fairs and local stores soon, and this group will be the first to know where I might appear next. If you want more connection, you can join my Discord for text chats, voice nights, story polls, music, and quiet late-night company. Whether you like your romance clean or dangerously dark, soft or sharp, sweet or uncomfortably good, you are welcome here. This House is built for readers who support each other and help my work stay visible with reviews, word-of-mouth, and honest conversation. We build this House together. Bienvenidos. This is where the ghosts get fed.

[close] Publishing is rich with hidden gems and diamonds in the rough that belong to self-published, indie, and otherwise underappreciated authors. Our focus is recommending little-known authors we're fans of and building a community amongst members who invest in this group. We support our own - readers and authors alike. Fringe Fiction is devoted to those who admire self-published works and want an outlet to discuss under-the-radar books with readers eager to discover fresh talent by obscure authors. Indie aficionados who welcome such recommendations and are enthusiastic about giving them are encouraged to let members know what they might be overlooking in the lesser-known corners of publishing. The authors mentioned in Fringe Fiction won’t be household names and their books aren’t New York Times bestsellers but each of them has fans, a few of them followings and all could use extra word-of-mouth. If you ever read a great book you felt deserved more attention or wished an unknown author all the success in the world, then consider contributing here. Book discussions and recommendations are the purposes of this group; however, self-published/small press authors will have spaces and opportunities to make themselves known to other members. We’re all supportive fans – both existing and potential – so treat the avid readers of Fringe Fiction with the utmost respect and they’ll consider your work with similar courtesy. To those still reading and like-minded - welcome to the Fringe!
