A book overview graphic created by using multiple layers of design details. The background is a medium purple-gray color, and a red ornate pattern overlays it. Above that layer is a centered transparent white box with a black outline, creating a border around the edge of the graphic. Within the box and to the top left is a dark gray book graphic featuring the novel's cover, a dark landscape with a towering castle and a large red eclipse encircling the top of it. To the right of the frame is a title in large, bold, black outlined, gray text that reads "Below the Heavens". Underneath that in red text outlined in black is a bullet list, which reads "High Fantasy. Ancient Spirits. Dragons." . Below the book graphic, title, and larger bullet list is a smaller bullet list. This bullet list reads "Detailed world crafted from scratch. Quick witted and likeable protagonist. Political struggles and intrigue. Unique auramaster magic system."

    A square graphic created by using multiple layers of design details. The background is an illustration of a landscape. The landscape is a city with oriental architecture, shrouded by a deep cloudy mist. In the center is a large palace with a tall spire, framed by a large red solar eclipse dominating the sky. The graphic title in bold gray text outlined with black, which reads "An Excerpt from the First Chapter of Below the Heavens" Directly underneath that in bold red text outlined with black is the subtitle, which reads "Sins of a Dying Empire.". Below that in the same text as the main title is the body text, which reads "Molam threw himself to the side as a whistle pierced the air and the projectile buried itself into a nearby tree with a thud. With no time to prepare, he was forced to lock his arms around his pack to protect its contents from being crushed as he hit the ground, doing his best to break his fall with a roll that sent him tumbling through the Forest's floor until stopped by a thorny bush. He sucked in air through clenched teeth before pulling himself back to his feet and continued running, tugging his cloak from the bush's thorny grasp. The exertion from sprinting through the Slumbering Forest manifested as a dull ache in his chest and he felt the burning pain of his muscles crying out for rest. There could be no rest now; being auraless, to stay here was to die."

    How do writers become famous? It's clear that talent is not enough. Cass R. Sunstein looks at the factors and trends that lead to literary recognition, from Oprah's Book Club to premature death. This extract from his book, "How to Become Famous: Lost Einsteins, Forgotten Superstars, and How the Beatles Came to Be," appears on LitHub.

    Today in Writing History May 21, 1703: The authorities imprisoned writer Daniel Defoe for seditious libel. Defoe was most famous for his novels Robinson Crusoe, published in 1719, and Moll Flanders (1722). However, he also wrote political pamphlets, including The Shortest Way with the Dissenters, which satirized how Tories handled religious dissenters by proposing that they all be exterminated. As a result, the authorities arrested and imprisoned him for seditious libel.
