Jezebel’s Island: A Psychological and Mystery Thriller by Gabriela Marie Milton – Podcasts
My dear subscribers and followers,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who bought Jezebelโs Island. A special thank you once again to my Japanese followers and friends who helped make Jezebelโs Island a #1 Amazon bestseller! When Literary Revelations releases a book, it is never given away for free, so reaching the #1 spot in such a competitive market is a true honor.
Whether you have already picked up a copy or haven’t had the chance yet, I would love to share two podcast episodes with you today that I recently posted on Instagram and X (where so many of my readers connect with me).
Please note that these are not WordPress podcasts, nor were they created through simple AI promptsโlistening to them was a deeply moving experience for me. The accompanying images, however, were created by me.

In honor of this core community and our shared commitment to the written word, I will not be taking any personal proceeds from this novel. Instead, 100% of the proceeds will go directly to Literary Revelations to fund the creation of our next haiku anthology, ensuring that we continue to nurture and preserve the art of traditional verse. Your support today directly shapes the future of our poetic community.
As I shared with you at the start of July, Jezebelโs Island is a psychological labyrinth built on cinematic flashes, abrupt transitions, and fragmented scenes. It is a defense of human consciousness against a sterile, automated existenceโand today, the investigation begins.
When you open the first chapter, The Night the Silence Screamed, remember the secret I told you: the ending greets you at the very start.
Thank you for walking across this threshold with me. I cannot wait to hear your thoughts as you uncover the shifting legends and veils of the City.
Jezebel’s Island is available in all Amazon Markets.

The Map -The Architects and the Wandering: A Guide to the Islandโs Shadows
Note: In the geography of this mystery, there is no true starting line. Remember, the beginning is the end.
The City: Occupying only one side of the island, the City is merciless. It is arguably the most merciless character in the storyโa silent, suffocating presence that shapes all who dwell within its borders.
Anastasia: A young woman born in the “City.” She wanders through mystery after mystery, mirror after mirror, ripping veil after veil only to discover new mysteries until she finally understands her destiny.
Jezebel: The visionary architect of fate, a fabulous characterโan almost mythical figure whose true intentions are found to be as layered and shifting as the island itself. Rising from the ashes, she leaves us to wonder: Will she make them bloom?
The Captain: A figure whose influence persists long after his demise. Though dead, his cruel legacy remains an immovable weight. Will anyone be able to transcend it?
Lady Swartley: An embodiment of the islandโs elite influence and traditionโor so many think. But she is much more. Find out.
David: The inheritor. His real thoughts, not just his actions, will mislead you at first. Pay close attention to what remains unsaidโand what he does in the end.
Esteban: Enigmatic and elusive. Try to understand his roleโthis is the challenge every reader must face in the literature of the enigma.
Armando: A servant whose presence masks a much deeper, hidden complexity. But is he a servant only?
Gabriela Marie Milton: The author. She built this island, woven these veils, and laid these mirrors. She knows the way outโbut will she guide you, or will she leave you to wander?
A Note on the Atmosphere of Jezebelโs Island
As you prepare to embark on the journey within Jezebelโs Island, I want to offer a brief guide on how to approach the narrative.
Reading this novel is less about following a linear path and more about surrendering to an experience. You will likely feel as though you are wandering through a fever dream alongside Anastasia. The narrative is intentionally disjointed, designed to mirror the instability of a world where reality is constantly filtered through the haze of dreams, fragmented memories, and persistent rumors.
To fully immerse yourself in this psychological landscape, I encourage you to set aside the search for traditional cause-and-effect transitions. Instead, allow yourself to be drawn into the thematic atmosphere. Pay close attention to the recurring motifsโthe imposing presence of the mountains, the haunting reflection of the mirror, and the encroaching silence of the “void.”
These are not merely background elements; they are the anchors of the story. If you embrace this visceral, psychological engagement, you will find that the storyโs true meaning lies not in the “what happens next,” but in the haunting resonance of the world itself.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts as you navigate the island.
Excerpt
What’s wrong with us devouring each other? God gave up the fight, and God says that the mightier should crush the weaker. On the table was a pineapple, and a knife was stuck in it. The pendulum chimed. It was 6:30 am. The Captain turned his back to me, rummaging in the box with cigars. He took them one by one, sniffing them. I tried to look away from the knife, but I couldn’t. In seconds, I lived through dozens of possible futures. I could have picked up the knife; I could have waited for him to turn around… I saw him already full of blood, from head to toe, slumped on the marble floor, dying… Twisted on the floor, the white floor full of blood… in that vision, it seemed to me that he was muttering: the mightiest must crush the weakest. It seemed to me that his gasp had already transformed into the laughter so familiar to me, into that sarcastic laughter. The mightier must crush the weaker. The mightier must crush the weaker. It is what God wants… Twisted in his own blood, he would not shut up. I couldn’t stand that image any longer… I took the knife. He was still on his back, savoring the smell of cigars.
Thank you for reading!
Gabriela Marie Milton, Author and Founder of Literary Revelations Woman of the Month (May, 2026), at P.O.W.E.R Magazine One of the 60th Womenโs Entrepreneurs to Watch for in 2026, New York Weekly
From My Desk to Times Square: A Note of Gratitude and Glamour
Sometimes, the journey of an author feels like a deep, introspective echoโit resonates in the countless hours spent honing a line of poetry or in the profound solitude of searching for that elusive word. Yet, it is with immense excitement that I share a truly surreal moment: thanks to the generous recognition by the Professional Organization of Women of Excellence Recognized (P.O.W.E.R.), which has honored me as Women of the Month (with an interview to be featured soon in their magazine), my work is set to shine bright on a billboard in the vibrant heart of Times Square this September!
It is a glamorous, bright stage, a stark contrast to the quiet, introspective spaces where my books are born. I find myself feeling deeply humble.
I see this achievement as a remarkable milestone, yet I refuse to regard it as my final destination. Rather, I perceive it as a powerful moment of visibility for the profound themes I have passionately delved into in my books:
“Passions: Love Poems and Other Writings” (contains poems translated in Italian by Flavio Almerighi)
“Woman: Splendor and Sorrow”
“Haiku and Tanka: Lull, Harmony and Power in Japanese Art” coauthored with Hikari
“Jezebel’s Island: A Mystery Thriller” upcoming in late June, early July.
These works were never intended to be fleeting. They were written with the hope that they might contribute something lasting to the cultural record, finding homes in your bookshelves. That these themes will now be reflected in the vibrant, kinetic light of Times Square feels like a beautiful, unexpected bridge between the quiet of the page and the noise of the world. Hikari’s paintings and tanka in “Haiku and Tanka: Lull, Harmony and Power in Japanese Art” help so much my career and I am deeply grateful to her.
The Real Achievement
The true honor, however, transcends the New York Times billboards and the cherished “Woman of the Month” titleโthough my gratitude for these accolades runs deep; it resides in the unwavering love and support of the remarkable community that has passionately rallied around my work.
To my readers, to those who have bought my books, to my collaborators, and to the followers who engage with my writing every week: this is your celebration as much as it is mine. Without your curiosity, your time, and your belief in my voice, these milestones would have no soul. You have allowed me the privilege of moving from the isolation of the writing desk to a stage as public as Times Square, and for that, I am endlessly thankful.
As I prepare for the launch of Jezebelโs Island late June, I carry this gratitude with me.

Jezebel’s Island: A Mystery Thriller by Gabriela Marie Milton – Coming in June at Literary Revelation
Meet one of the main characters of the novel: Jezebel
My dear followers and subscribers,
I am absolutely elated to share the exhilarating news that my novel, Jezebel’s Island: A Mystery Thriller, will be published by Literary Revelations this June!
A short Excerpt from Jezebel’s Island: A Mystery Thriller
…….thirty years ago.
We were in the main square of the town when he appeared among us. It was hot; I was sweaty, dusty, and very thirsty. I carried a wicker basket full of tomatoes, potatoes, and cauliflowers. The braided strap had cut into my skin; it was heavy, very heavy. The bright silks hanging from the merchantsโ stalls trembled in the dry, burning wind. The afternoon sun seemed to melt over people and things like a boiling river.
I felt its rough touch; my back and hands ached. A moment earlier, he had given a coin to a begging child, who had thanked him, closed his fist around the coin, pressed it to his heart, and then bent down to kiss my dusty feet. I parted from him with a strange sadness. I donโt know why, but that day I wished the sky were purple. Yet the sky was never purple there. I was looking for an ice cream vendor when I noticed his blue eyes, expressionless, the eyes of a winner…
-Yes, he had the eyes of a winner. Winner’s eyes exist, just as there are bricklayer’s hands, three-eyed frogs or prostitutes. He turned to me and said: I feel lost in this City, Miss. Could you help me? He wore a wrinkled, dirty suit of a cut I had never seen before. Later, I was to learn that it was a military uniform. I asked him: Where did it come from? He didn’t answer me. He laughed, and the skin around his eyes gathered into deep wrinkles. I told him: To this place no one comes and from here no one leaves. Then he burst into even louder laughter. I felt myself being watched and looked around, but everything was the same…
From the Foreword
In Miltonโs novel Jezebelโs Island, somewhere between the motif of quest and goal, thereare several gnoseological, political, even moral obstacles. That is why this novel is structured as an investigation over which, as we come to know half-truths, other layers of ambiguity are superimposed. This fact results first of all from the gnoseological interdependence, maintained by the author, between the characters in the book. In the constellation of the plot-investigation, Jezebel and Lady Swarthy represent the points of emission of some fundamental information that the reader needs to pay attention to.
At the other end of the circulation on the Island is Anastasia. She is the witness, the recipient, and the actor of events destined to place her between necessity and chance. As the first characters appear on the stage (Anastasia, Jezebel, David), readers are not yet aware of any biographical details of their existence. The narration begins like a cinematic tape that is suddenly set in motion….
This was first posted in Literary Revelations. For those of you who do not follow Literary Revelations, I hope this read is interesting.
The Economy of Emotion: Why Poetry Struggles at the Checkout Counter
In the literary world of 2026, a strange paradox exists. If you scroll through Instagram, you will find that poetry is more โviralโ than ever. Short, punchy verses from โInstapoetsโ are screenshotted, shared, and tattooed at record rates. Yet, when we look at the hard data from 2025, a familiar trend remains: poetry unit sales continue to lag significantly behind other genres like Romance, Thriller, and Non-fiction.
While the Romance genre alone generated over $1.4 billion in sales last year, poetry remains a niche category, often struggling to break the million-copy mark across the entire industry. Here is why the โmost sharedโ genre is often the โleast purchased.โ
1. The โSingle Verseโ Consumption Model
The primary challenge for poetry in the digital age is that it is inherently snackable. In 2025, 62% of poetry readers consumed work primarily via mobile devices.
โข The Problem: Readers feel they have โexperiencedโ the work by reading a single poem on a feed.
โข The Contrast: A Mystery or Thriller novel requires a 300-page commitment to reach the โpayoff.โ You cannot โconsumeโ a thriller via a single screenshot; you must buy the book to get the resolution.
2. Lack of โBinge-Abilityโ
Other genres thrive on the โjust one more chapterโ effect. Romance and Fantasyโthe two highest-selling genres of 2025โrely on narrative momentum. * The Hook: Fiction creates a dopamine loop through plot and character development.
โข The Barrier: Poetry is an emotional or intellectual โstop and thinkโ medium. It is difficult to โbinge-readโ a collection of 80 poems in one sitting without suffering from emotional fatigue. Consequently, readers buy fewer books because they spend more time digesting the ones they already have.
3. The Utility Gap
Non-fiction (Self-Help, Memoirs, and Finance) remains the industryโs largest segment because it promises a tangible ROI (Return on Investment). * The Value: Readers view a $25 non-fiction book as an investment in a skill or a solution to a problem.
โข The Perception: Poetry is often viewed as a luxury or a purely aesthetic experience. In an era of economic caution, โutilityโ often beats โartistryโ at the cash register.
4. The Academic Shadow
Despite the rise of modern, accessible poets, the genre still carries the weight of โhigh art.โ Many consumers still associate poetry with the difficult, coded language they were forced to analyze in school. While โRomantasyโ (the 2025 breakout genre) promises pure escapism, poetry is often perceived as โwork,โ which can deter casual readers looking for relaxation.
On a different note,
Statistically, the vast majority of poets sell very few copies on Amazon. While the platform offers massive potential reach, most self-published poetry titles struggle to gain visibility without an external audience.
The Harsh Reality of Poetry Sales
Average Lifetime Sales: Approximately 90% of self-published books (across all genres) sell fewer than 100 copies in their entire lifetime.
Genre Challenges: Poetry is statistically one of the lowest-selling genres; it is estimated that of the roughly 10,000 new poetry books released annually, the top 10 titles account for 25% of all sales.
Typical New Author Performance: Industry data suggests that many new poets may only sell between 25 and 30 copies total. Without active marketing, a first-time self-published book might sell as few as 0 to 5 copies in its first year.
Why Sales Are Low for Most Poets
Lack of Organic Discovery: Amazon does not heavily promote poetry in its main browsing menus, meaning readers rarely โstumble uponโ new poets unless they are specifically searching for them.
Saturation: In 2025, over 1.7 million books are self-published on Amazon KDP annuallyโroughly 4,700 new titles per dayโmaking it extremely easy for a single collection to be buried.
Marketing Gap: Success on Amazon typically requires an existing following. โInstapoetsโ or those with large TikTok or Instagram audiences drive the majority of high-volume sales.
When is it Still โWorth Itโ?
Despite low average sales, Amazon remains a โworth itโ tool if you adjust your expectations:
Zero Financial Risk: Unlike traditional printing, Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) is free to use, meaning selling even 10 copies results in a small profit rather than a loss.
The โBusiness Cardโ Effect: Having a professional book on Amazon can serve as a credential for speaking engagements, open mics, or local workshops.
Global Distribution: It is the only platform that allows a niche poet to be accessible to a global audience instantly, even if that audience is small.
The Blogging world โ as a venue for sales
The philosophy behind buying poetry in the blogging world is reciprocity. By buying each otherโs poetry and exchanging reviews, bloggers foster a sense of camaraderie and encouragement. This dynamic helps build trust, expand audiences, and create a network where creative work is appreciated and amplified through shared engagement. In the blogging world, itโs about cultivating a collaborative environment where everyone benefits from the collective growth and exposure. Nevertheless, that may give a poet 20-30 sales. Not more than that. But it gives everyone online friends and a nurturing community. Yet, what about quality?
Reminders:
1.
Haiku and Tanka: Lull, Harmony and Power in Japanese Art by Hikari and Gabriela Marie Milton is now available in eBook format. It’s a wonderful album of poetry and art that showcases different perspectives on the same painting.
A local Japanese restaurant got Haiku and Tanka: Lull, Harmony and Power in Japanese Art and Naoki Kimura’s Fine-Art Photography: Lullscapes in Light and Shadow, and now its walls are adorned with splendid art from within, framed and shiny. I thought I would share that with you.

Love Gabriela
In an era of fleeting digital whispers, Gabriela Marie Milton writes with a pen dipped in the eternal. To encounter her work is not merely to read, but to step into a curated sanctuary where the ancient echoes of the Mediterranean meet the disciplined stillness of the far East. As a three-time #1 Amazon bestselling poet and a 2022 Pushcart Prize nominee, Milton has emerged as more than an author; she is a custodian of the sublime.
The Lyrical Architect
Miltonโs voice first commanded the literary world through her seminal collections, Passions: Love Poems and Other Writings (2020) and the hauntingly beautiful Woman: Splendor and Sorrow (2021). Her prose does not merely describe emotionโit inhabits it. This visceral honesty earned her the distinction of Author of the Year at Spillwords Press in 2019. Her verses, exploring the tapestries of womanhood and philosophy, have traveled across borders, translated into the melodic cadences of Italian, Greek, Spanish, and Portuguese.
Literary Revelations: Where Artistry Finds Its Home
In 2023, Milton birthed Literary Revelations Publishing House, an institution founded on the radical notion that literature should be a high-art experience. Her vision was immediate and transformative.
She has created a sanctuary for voices that prioritize aesthetic precision, intellectual depth, and timeless beauty. Milton believes that a book is not merely a product, but a cultural artifact. Her mission is to bridge the gap between contemporary expression and classical excellence, and the new Motto of Literary Revelations is โWe do not publish only books, we curate legacies.โ
Under Miltonโs editorial stewardship, books are not just bound paper; they are cultural artifacts. This is evidenced by the historic inclusion of her edited anthologies, Petals of Haiku and Tranquility: An Anthology of Haiku in the Museum of Haiku Literature in Japan. Perhaps most stirring is the permanent installation of Petals of Haiku, a painting by Literary Revelations Artist in Residence Hikari, used to create the cover of Miltonโs Petals of Haiku, in the Treasure House of Rinsenji Temple, where its curation sits in sacred proximity to centuries of Japanese tradition.
The growth of Literary Revelations and Miltonโs personal literary journey have been chronicled across several prestigious platforms, noting her commitment to โbeauty, precision, and timeless artistry.โ
ArtistHighlights:Featured in a comprehensive profile titled โGabriela Marie Milton and the Rise of Literary RevelationsโA House That Defied Expectations.โ This feature explored her cinematic methodology and her success in crossing the boundaries between poetry and the visual arts, such as in Miltonโs latest #1 Amazon Bestseller with Hikari, Haiku and Tanka: Lull, Harmoni and Power in Japanese art, a fabulous collection of poetry and art, and in Naoki Kimuraโs photography and poetry album entitled Fine Art Photography: Lullscapes in Light and Shadow, curated and published by Literary Revelations at the same time that the artistโs work was being exhibited at Hilton Tokyo Hotel.
Bizweekly:Formally recognized Miltonโs editorial leadership by naming Literary Revelations as the โBest Publisher of Artistic Excellence in the USโ (2025), specifically citing her ability to curate works that span diverse cultures and genres.
Best of Best Review:featured Milton and her publishing house in a beaming piece that accompanied Milton and Literary Revelationsโ award for Best Publisher in the USA 2025, describing the press as โone of the most influential independent publishers in America.โ
The publishing world really took note, crowning Milton and Literary Revelations with the Evergreen Award for Best Poetry Publisher in the US……..

Hikariโs masterful paintings immerse you in the splendor of Japanese art, each brushstroke echoing the beauty of cultural heritage and the depth of historical narrative. Her tanka, deeply rooted in Japanese traditions, transports readers to landscapes and moments of spiritual introspection.
In contrast, Gabriela Marie Miltonโs evocative haiku offers a fresh, Western perspectiveโcrafted in direct response to Hikariโs artwork. Her concise yet profound verses highlight the magnificence and subtlety captured on canvas, creating a dialogue between image and word that transcends borders. This unique approach allows readers to view the same artwork through two distinct cultural lenses, underscoring the rich possibilities of artistic perspectivism.

Gabriela Marie Milton – Updated Bio
Hello everyone and welcome to my blog.
I am Gabriela Marie Milton, a 3-time Amazon bestselling poet, award-winning poet, and internationally published author. Vita Brevis Press nominated me for the 2022 Pushcart Prize. My poetry has been published in various journals in the US and abroad (sometimes under the pen name Gabriela M) and translated into Italian, Greek, Romanian, and Albanian.
In 2023, I founded Literary Revelations Publishing House to honor the memory of my mother, who was beautiful, generous, and loved literature with all her heart. Presently, I am the Editor in Chief of Literary Revelations.
I am three times an amazon bestselling author. My books are:
In Addition, I have edited the following poetry anthologies: Wounds I Healed, Hidden in Childhood, Petals of Haiku, and Tranquility: An Anthology of Haiku. You may want to visit Literary Revelations to see more of my work as a publisher and curator, and my awards.
Cultural Journalism
Beyond the written word, I am a cultural journalist known for my cinematic storytelling and immersive digital reportage. My multimedia clips from Greece and Portugal offer a sophisticated exploration of the Mediterranean’s historical and aesthetic soul, blending high-production visual artistry with her signature lyrical commentary. These original works bridge the ancient and the modern, documenting the genius loci of the Hellenic world through a lens that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. By integrating these visual narratives into her broader body of work, I continue to redefine the boundaries of contemporary literary journalism, bringing the ‘splendor and sorrow’ of human history to a global digital audience.
