Authors Who Write in the Dark

Bones and Belladonna provides strategic, long term PA support tailored to high-intensity genres where launches are demanding and burnout is common.

Publishing Didn’t Break You.
Doing It Alone Is.

Writing dark fiction requires emotional energy. Publishing it requires relentless logistics.

ARC teams, launches, inboxes, content, timelines, readers, it stacks up fast. Most authors don’t burn out because they lack talent. They burn out because they’re carrying the entire machine alone.

Bones & Belladonna exists to take that weight off, without diluting your voice or vision.

Support

Take the support assessment to identify what level of help fits your current workload, release schedule, and capacity. This step removes guesswork and ensures recommendations are based on where you are now, not where you think you should be.

Complete a short intake so goals, timelines, and expectations are clearly defined. This allows for an intentional review of fit, scope, and availability before any work begins.

Nothing moves forward without mutual clarity.

Once accepted, systems are set up, communication channels are established, and support begins. Work is handled discreetly, strategically, and without constant oversight, so you can focus on writing while the structure holds.
