“Fiction. Yet possibly a prophecy of things to come if we don’t change our ways. Good story, well thought out characters and as a diabetic it scared the bejesus out of me.” – Amazon Reviewer
“This book will grab you from the first chapter and keep you riveted throughout.” – Amazon Reviewer
“I just recently made the jump to post-apocalyptic novels, and this will be one of my favorites.” – Amazon Reviewer
“It gets under your skin, it makes you think, it challenges your comfort zone and triggers some buried fear.” – Amazon Reviewer
Note from the author:
I’ve always been a fan of survival stories because I love watching people conquer adversity. My sister is diabetic, and I found myself wondering what post-apocalyptic life would be like for people who need insulin to survive. From there, the story took on a life of its own. I hope you enjoy it. -Julia

The reality-shattering stakes of Dark Matter meet the poetic soul of This Is How You Lose the Time War.
She paints the patterns. They are doorways. And they are breaking the world.
Anela Foster survives the brutal winters of Lake Placid by painting things she shouldn’t be able to see. Recursive loops. Impossible angles. Geometries that vibrate with a low, distant hum. She thinks she is just capturing a nightmare to fill the void that haunts her sleep.
She is wrong. She isn’t just painting the void. She is waking it up.
When Elysia Harrington—Manhattan’s most enigmatic artist—walks into her bar, the nightmare begins to bleed into the waking world. Elysia doesn’t just see the art; she feels the vibration of it. She recognizes the impossible truth hidden in the brushstrokes.
The connection between them is instant, electric, and terrifyingly familiar.
Swept away to a life of high-art and shadows in New York City, Anela finds herself falling for the one person who makes the world feel real. But as their desire deepens, the laws of physics begin to fray. Shadows detach from their owners. Time skips a beat. The impossible patterns in Anela’s art start to appear in the city streets.
The system is watching. The room is tightening.
Now, Anela must choose: Stop painting and save the world from collapsing, or follow the path of her art to the terrifying truth behind the sky.
The world is thinner than they thought. And they are the only ones holding the knife.
