PIRATE QUEEN CHRONICLES
A BROKEN HEART OF BLACKENED STONE
SEPTEMBER 1 2026
Ida has an adventurer’s heart. When she followed that heart, she left behind the jungle island queendom ruled by her mother and ended up on board a merchant ship, with nothing but the blade in her hand and the magic in her bones to protect her. One, she’s great at using. The other, not so much.
Carrington’s magic tells him there’s something different about this girl who carries herself like a queen but wields a blade like a warrior. His magic also tells him she needs more protection from someone—he can’t figure out who—on her crew than even she realizes.

Gina Denny is a writer, editor, publishing professional, speaker, and erstwhile music teacher. After more than a decade editing manuscripts for authors who saw success in both traditional publishing and self-publishing, she became an associate editor at a small independent press working on a wide range of genres.
You've plotted, drafted, revised, and edited your manuscript and now it's time for someone else to step in. You've read it too many times, so you can't get any distance from it. Or maybe you've sent it to trusted critique partners and beta readers, but they disagree about what the manuscript needs.
​​
You need a professional editor. Someone who loves books, loves making them shine, and can tell you the truth about what's working and what can be improved.
​
I've been editing manuscripts for sixteen years. My critique partners have gone on to be traditionally published or have found success self-publishing. I used to be an associate editor with an independent press for almost two years and have been on the faculty for various writing conferences since 2019.
