Here you’ve heard me talk quite a bit about Indie Author Day and those who follow me on Facebook have gotten to hear me go on about Boise Book Fest. With the two events running back-to-back weekends, it was hard not to be super excited about both. I didn’t get the chance to escape my table for IndieContinue reading “Recent Events”

Now what?
I know, not a Muse Monday post. On Thursday I started sending out my beta file to people. While I wouldn’t mind a few more beta readers the ones who have it now already have me wringing my hands in worry. I’m running my beta period until January 1st so I can work on otherContinue reading “Now what?”
Muse Monday: Shattering
Today’s post might go in a few different directions, but I’m announcing book 2’s title. Just no date – way too much work ahead of me, but the title I’ve had on it a while has stuck. I had this song on in my vehicle and ended up hitting repeat (much to my husband’s dismayContinue reading “Muse Monday: Shattering”
Pick up the pace #IWSG
I ran into some serious issues early on with book 2. Got them sorted out a few months ago and now it’s down to editing (and maybe add an epilogue). I’m just not sure how fast I can turn around this book given how long Twisted Magics took to come to completion. Yeah, I know,Continue reading “Pick up the pace #IWSG”
Twisted Magics
Twisted Magics will be available in 4 weeks on June 21st. In the meantime, I’ve linked to several places that pre-orders can be placed below. To add to the fun, I will be taking questions from the comments that I will answer in my post next week. And now to answer some questions from lastContinue reading “Twisted Magics”
Twisted Magics cover reveal!
Twisted Magics ebook versions are already available for pre-order through Amazon, Smashwords, B&N, iBooks, Kobo, and some others that I can’t remember. If you have a different preferred company for ebooks, feel free to ask and I’ll check if it is up. And yes, I am listed on Goodreads already (I really need a newContinue reading “Twisted Magics cover reveal!”
Let It Go
Yes, I likely just got that song stuck in your head. You’re welcome. Joking aside, I met with a fantastic critique group last night. Things may get a bit heated, maybe get stuck on something, but the important part to me was that there was no malice behind it. Something another group I’ve been draggingContinue reading “Let It Go”
Uphill battle
This more or less is how I’ve felt so far trying to work on this project for NaNoWriMo: First, I kept skipping to the next scene, just trying to keep moving. Then I realize a little more than 11K words in that I had found the start to my novel, but I was still strugglingContinue reading “Uphill battle”
The calm before the storm
As the last hours tick away, I look forward to November with both excitement and trepidation. And a glass of not so great wine. NaNoWriMo is a mixed bag of emotions for me. After finishing my first year, I had a five year span without completing a project. I had tried different projects, attempted theContinue reading “The calm before the storm”
Funny how that works out…
For a while, I’ve been stressing about the low word count on Twisted Magics. Sitting at a little over 66K, it was hard to take seriously. Even though I never actually pay attention to word counts when I’m reading. Going into a new round of beta, it got a little beefier with cresting 75K. IContinue reading “Funny how that works out…”
