❄️COVER REVEAL TIME❄️ I'm teaming up with the incredible @lgbtqreads.bsky.social to bring you the cover of my debut YA graphic novel, HOLLOW MAGIC! This is my first time taking on such a huge project and I'm so excited to share it with the world in August! #coverreveal #graphicnovels #lgbtq

Book cover for HOLLOW MAGIC by Mars Lauderbaugh. Three characters face the viewer on a dark blue and pink background. There is ice and a the dark outline of a castle in the midground. In the far background, the eyes and hair of a woman is peeking out over the castle. Title text at the bottom of the page reads: HOLLOW MAGIC and underneath the author type reads MARS LAUDERBAUGH.

White text on a blue background. Text reads: Raised in the world of fey, seventeen-year-old Rosefinch has the ability to lift curses with nothing but a twist of her fingers. But when a witch's magic is left long enough in the fey realm, it becomes supercharged, painful to use, and potentially even dangerous.

Following a rumor that the village of Harp is home to a witch who might be able to help control her magic, Rosefinch discovers an ancient ruined castle with the inhabitants long gone; the only remaining soul a knight cursed to stand a frozen guard at the entrance. The magic she uses to free them melts more than just the ice, and soon, Rosefinch is falling for this charming stranger. But Thierry has secrets of their own, as do other members of the Harp family still hidden within the castle walls. The Harp witch’s wicked magic ripped this family apart for a reason, and Rosefinch must find a way to stop the curse or she'll lose Thierry—and chance to learn the truth about her magic—forever.

With mesmerizing art and a sweeping queer romance, this spellbinding fairy tale shows the power of found family and love where we least expect it.

Welcome to the seaside village of Harp ❄️ When I first got the deal for Hollow Magic in 2023, I blacked out and drew a ton of things that I'd use for promo when I was finished. Now we're 10 months out from publication and I can finally start posting it 🥹 #hollowmagic

White text on dark background. Text reads: Welcome to the seaside village of Harp. The sea air will exhaust you with a deep longing for what used to be. You will not enter the castle on the farthest cliff; the doors have rotted into the earth, pushed down under the wait of frozen hands. The wind bites coldest where the dawn can see. You will not stay long.
