Ever heard of a Book Family Tree? It was a really interesting exercise for me—to consider what other books inspired, informed or influenced my own in some way. I was actually quite surprised by some of the connections I made—are you? If you’re reading my book now, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Were there any you thought of that should be here? Are any of these books a favorite of yours? Perhaps try a family book tree of your own and share✨ #bookfamilytree #inspiration #newrelease #syllablesofthebrinyworld #shinybitsinbetween #bolivarpeninsula #bolivarpointlighthouse #sequel #txgulfcoast #texasauthor #hurricane #hurricaneike #climatefiction #magicrealsim #VisionaryFiction ✨
🌻🌻 Family Tree Flatlay 🌻🌻 [AD/PR products included] 🌳🌳🌳🌳 Fridays are made for flatlays. I was inspired to make this family tree themed flatlay by the family tree included in the front of The Reappearance of Rachel Price. I am a sucker for mixed media elements in books and this was a great addition I had more books than I expected with family members in the title so here is what I pulled together. I’ve since realised I missed out My Cousin Rachel by Daphne Du Maurier which would have been a fab edition. I’d love to see what other people can come up with!! Have you read any of these books? #bookstagram #fridayflatlay #flatlay #bookishflatlay #averybookishpost #bookishfamilytree #bookfamilytree #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks
I’ve had a few messages asking about couples of the letters from the series and how they interconnect and If you were watching my stories from yesterday I dropped the series characters ……but I’m terrible at explaining things and I hand out spoilers without thinking about it🫣 So, here’s the answers to all your questions - it’s family series tree 😅 (don’t judge me - it’s the best I could do 😂) Anyway until the next time Yours Laura Xoxo 💋 please note the images are not mine - Pinterest people 👀 #bookfamilytree #lettersfromtheheartseries #laurarush #yourstruly #yoursimpatiently #indieauthor #author #book #booktree #bookstagram #romancebooks #romance #bookseries #bookboyfriend #bookcharacters

When I was writing Shaken Loose, I had trouble figuring out where it fit into the literary marketplace since it doesn't fit neatly into a single genre. So I started playing around with creating a family tree for my book. This turned out to be fun and useful enough that I turned it into a free template that other writers can use. This week, the renowned publishing expert Jane Friedman features my essay on Book Family Trees on her blog! I am honored and thrilled. You can read the whole story (and find a link to the template) via the link in my Linktree bio. Or see https://janefriedman.com/book-family-tree-a-new-way-to-think-about-your-book/ #amwriting #amquerying #bookfamilytree #shakenloose #janefriedman #writingtips #craftofwriting #bookstagram #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writerscommunityofinstagram #comps #publishingtips #selfpublishing
Sometimes a simple comp ("Bridget Jones meets Moby Dick") isn't enough to describe a book. While trying to figure out where to place my novel Shaken Loose in the market, I created a family tree for it! I didn't use this in querying agents but it helped my own thinking and was FUN. Then I figured, maybe other writers might want to create a family tree for their book? Or readers might want to do it for books they absolutely love? So I designed a free downloadable Book Family Tree template on Canva. You can customize and download it via the Book Family Tree link in my Linktree bio, or see the Book Family Tree page on my web site, ilana debare.com. If you create one, tag me so I can see *your* book family! #bookfamilytree #amwriting #comps #amquerying #bookstagram #canva #bookmarketing #bookpromotion #bookstagrammer
Jules’ family tree 🌳 Someone mentioned a while ago they would like a family tree of Jules’ family and friends. So here it is! These are the names you will need to know when it comes to both books. There are some characters missing from this which you will find in The Secrets We Keep as I don’t want to drop a big spoiler. Not long to go now! the Secrets We Keep is out March 12th. 💙 The book is a YA Mystery. This book is the second in the series. Read book 1- The Lies We Tell - Out Now on Amazon! 💙 #thehiddenjulesseries #author #bookfamilytree #familytree #bookstagram #bookstagramuk #booktok #booklover #bookrecommendations #torriejonesauthor #author #authorsofinstagram #authorlife
Do you like books that are built around one family? If so...look no further🥰 The Hagenheim series by @melaniedickerson123 is truly a family affair. Each book refers to a different parent or child in the family and shares their story. I finally made a family tree with the covers to help you know who is connected where. For the order of the series, go back a few post and you will find a post with a picture of the whole series with the order in the caption.😊 I can't get over this series🥹🥰 #familytree #bookfamily #bookfamilytree #hagenheimseries #hagenheimfairytaleseries #fairytales #retellings #favoriteauthor #favoritebooks #favoriteseries #cleanchristianfiction #cleanromance #cleanhistoricalromance #bookreader #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks
The Inheritance Games Family Tree QotD: what book had a family tree so confusing you had to look it up? A. This one for me was a bit difficult, so I decided to make me own :).

#FantasyIndiesJuly- Family in your WIP Family is an ongoing theme in my Be Series (3rd image is the family tree in the back of book 1, Be). Henry's family is further explored in book 2, An Impossible Dream, and book 3, Where the Heart Is. As a beta reader pointed out for the MC of An Impossible Dream, Sare, family is a concept she would not know much about or understand. Throughout the book her and her friends develop a found family, as seen with this snippet of her and Maybell. After she has her son, too, there's more exploration of this, as seen in the second snippet. #SpilltheGreenTea- #Fairytales The five kingdoms in my Be series are rich with stories, to the point where I have plans for a companion fairytale companion to the overall series featuring stories discussed within the books. In Be, the first book, a couple Midgrim stories are discussed, including the origin of Midgrim as the Kingdom descended from shadows, and the origins of the curious apple trees. In An Impossible Dream, the second book, stories include the clay dolls from The West, The Boy Who Sailed to the Moon from the East, and the witch in the woods, AKA The Weaver of the World from the South. Book three, Where the Heart Is, will feature plenty more! #MoonFireandSkyChallenge- Share a line you wrote this week "I am afraid you'll just have to settle for me." She managed to take a confident step toward him. "I am the jewel of my kingdom after all. That's why you wanted me in the first place, isn't it?" - from Where the Heart Is I always picture Pat Benatar's Hit Me With Your Best Shot playing in the background in these early moments where Clary faces the King! #saturdaysnippets #SaturdaySnippet #SnippetsSaturday #snippetsaturday #bookquotes #bookfamilytree #characterfamilytree #bebookseries #benovel #animpossibledream #wheretheheartis #bookseries #wipwednesday #wipseries #authorgram #onelinemonday #charactergenealogy #bookgenealogy #authorstagram #authorsofinstagram #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #readersofinstagram #readingofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writingofinstagram
If there’s one thing I’ve always LOVED about hard copy books (and miss most about audible ones) is when there’s a map, or a family tree, or illustrations... 🌎 🌳 🌊 I will definitely include some or all of these in my book, one day. 🏡 This is a lovely example of One two three’s little town I mentioned in my last review, Bourne. #QOTD: What’s the best illustration you’ve enjoyed in a novel? 📷: lauriefrankel.net #fiction #fictionaltown #bookillustration #illustration #bookfamilytree #reading #lauriefrankel #bourne
