Amparo Ortiz | THE IRON KEYS PARTY! With Authors Karuna Riazi & Natasha M Heck! @amparoortiz2234 | Uploaded October 2020 | Updated October 2024, 13 minutes ago.
Welcome to today's BLAZEWRATH GAMES Virtual Launch Event! I'm so thrilled to host a cyber-party with two of my absolute favorite people in the world, my critique partners!
Karuna Riazi is the author of middle grade fantasies THE GAUNTLET (Salaam Reads, 2017) and THE BATTLE (2019), as well as a contributor to multiple anthologies, including HUNGRY HEARTS: 13 TALES OF FOOD & LOVE (Simon Pulse, 2019). Natasha M. Heck is a San Diego-based author whose most recent work is featured in the NOT QUITE AS YOU WERE TOLD (2020) anthology. She's also the biggest Black Widow and Wonder Woman fan alive, which automatically makes her my friend.
Together the three of us are the Iron Keys. Join us for a candid discussion about suffering through my terrible drafts and still talking to me anyway!

Welcome to todays episode! Lets talk about authors and literary agents, shall we? Specifically, how parasocial relationships and hero worship in publishing can cause more harm than good. Disclaimer: I use the word d!ck a few times in this video. I felt inspired.
And yep, this video comes with CCs!!
