Being an Indie author comes with its own set of challenges. Early on into writing the Marks of the Broken series, V.L. knew that she wanted to go all the way. The questions began piling up and her Google history grew alongside them. Alongside Google, V.L. leaned on her friends and other authors. Threads became a go to for connecting with other Indie authors. All of it worked out... eventually. The biggest question was asked by V.L.'s husband: So, when will the publishing company be created? V.L. registered her company an hour later and Antimatter Publishing House, LLC was born. Another play on her love for stargazing, just like her name, and one step closer to her author career.
