Cover Reveal: Dance with Me, by Livia J. Elliot
16 Apr 2025Welcome to a new cover reveal!
Today we have the pleasure of help reveal the cover of Dance With Me, a standalone novella in the Tales of the Bookshelves world written by Livia J. Elliot.
Let's take a look at the blurb:
In a world of beauty, a ceramic-made ballerina awakens atop her music box. She must dance for her elven owners, and so her ballet goes on and on. They praise her elegance, her poise and balance, until one day she falls and her ceramic fractures—but the ballerina dances again, ignoring her ever-increasing fissures. The music plays, captivating and demanding... but should she dance? Even when what she once loved becomes a trap?
Dance With Me will be first released (in a special edition) on Kickstarter, starting the May 6th. You can already follow it.
Dance With Me will also be available on audiobook.
The original interactive story will still be free to play on Unearthed Stories.
The cover has been designed by Livia J. Elliot, and the naked hardcover has been illustrated by José Arturo Bustamante.
