The chosen one is dead.
The prophecy unfulfilled.
The shape-shifting dragons left cursed to be puppets to their dragon kings.

It's up to a ragtag team of high school shifters to break the curse and take down the kings ruling the secret magical society of modern day earth.

A fake movie poster featuring the silhouette of a girl in front of a dark, cloudy sunset. The title across the middle reads "Child of the Dragon" Across the very top in small text it reads "a young adult contemporary fantasy." The tag line at the top center below the genre tag reads "if we have hope, we have an army." in the top corners are two "reviews" bracketed in gold laurel wreaths like a movie award. The top left reads in all caps "The boys are kissing!" -a beta reader. The top right reads shows a keyboard smash also credited to a beta reader. Beneath the title are three "tropes" that read "Found family," "the chosen one is dead," and "cursed dragons" Beneath that reads "From Inked in Gray press, February 2026, Ashley N. Y. Sheesley, Add now on goodreads, storygraph, and Indie Story Geek."

Did I make a poster for my short story in Artifice & Access?? Of course I did! Hope, be it Never so Faint is a Sapphic Robin Hood retelling with a chronically ill maid Marian and a "you shot me!" "you shot first!" meet cute

Add on GR/Storygraph and order now!
A soft, pink background with roses through a hazy screen. It's set up a bit like a movie poster with the title across the center: HOPE, BE IT NEVER SO FAINT. Across the top, the tag line reads "ask me one more time" with two reviews bracketed in laurel leaves. The first reads "hot redheaded robin hood gay panic forever -advanced review" and "I wish I could send this back in time to my teenage self. -goodreads reveiw" Beneath the title are the "tropes" but in the same way movies have the main actors' names. It says "robin hood retelling, "You shot me first," and Happily ever after." My name: Ashley N. Y. Sheesley is across the bottom in a white box, and at the very bottom it reads "Artifice & Access Now available wherever books are sold"

#PosterPitA #MG #F #DIS #OWN
A fake movie poster with a picture of two people walking on a path (in the distance) in a foggy forest. The title reads "Sophie's Guide to Werewolves and Pancakes" A tag line across the top reads "That's...that's a big puppy." and beneath the title it reads in font like how posters put the actors' names "Ride or Die friendship," "MG Cozy paranormal" and "#ownvoices disability rep." a "review" under that has 5 gold stars and reads "this was cute! -my mom" At the bottom it reads "A novel by Ashley N. Y. Sheesley Coming soon to a sub box near you. Repped by Kaitlyn Katsoupis at Belcastro Agency"

Two blue-green books stacked on top of one another. The cover is dark blue-green and features a mage on a giant wyrm, a female archer in a wheelchair with a bow and arrow, and a woman with a prosthetic leg. There is a red rose on the top and bottom of the cover. The title is in white and reads "Artifice & Access", with a smaller heading above it that reads "a disability in fantasy anthology". A line of brown paper runs along the bottom with the text "Artifice & Access. Out January 25, 2025"
