Coming Soon: The first three books in my Supernatural Consultant series--Dragon Consultant, Dragon Deception, and Dragon Dilemma--will be arriving in audio book this month. I don't have an exact date, but I will definitely let you know as soon as I learn it. The audio books for my Dragon's Hoard series were a big hit and I'm really hoping you'll enjoy Supernatural Consultant just as much. And, yes, for those who are worried, the next books in the series will also become audiobooks, but it probably won't be until after Dragon Home is published.
Ner Li is coming out in just a few days. Thanks to LT3's huge holiday sale, you can get it for 28% off if you buy before December 14th. The Case of the Wandering Wolves is also 28% off until the end of the holiday sale. Plus, every single one of my books in LT3's catalogue is also on sale for 15% off. This is a great opportunity to stock up.

News: What I'm Working on Now

I have been writing, but I can't stick to one story. I added a bit to If A Butterfly Don't Fly, then switched to Ge-Mi: Part Two, then added 1k words to my story with the awkward working title of Coliseum Story. I've also worked on Ground of Resurrection and another story with a working title of Coup. If I could stick to one story, maybe I would feel like I was making progress, but I'm still feeling a bit stuck. Of course, a few months ago I wasn't able to write anything. Some writing is considerably better than no writing at all. I'm hoping that this upward trend will continue and I'll be able to write even more soon.
LT3 and I have been talking about a few things. First, my Dragon's Hoard series is going out of print early next year and I'm talking with LT3 about a reprint. What that means is the series will go through a thorough edit, possibly get updated covers (I'm not sure about that since the original covers are so fabulous), but overall the series won't change too much. I'm hoping to finally get my short stories completed in time for the reprint, so there's lots to do.
Second, LT3 and I have begun talking about producing Supernatural Consultant 1-3 as an audio book. This would be in the same style as the print book with all three of the first books in the series (Dragon Consultant, Dragon Deception, and Dragon Dilemma) together in one audio book. We're at such an early stage of this process that it will be at least a year from now before the audio book might be released. I'm just so excited that it's happening!

The Oracle's Hatchling is selling well and everyone I've heard from seems to really like it! Thank you to everyone who has read and/or reviewed.
The last three books in The Dragon's Hoard Series should be arriving in audiobook stores in just a few days. I'll keep everyone posted on when they come out!
LT3 has very kindly agreed to take on Third Time's The Charm. I'm very grateful for their help getting my short story ready for everyone to enjoy. Of course, they just sent me back some edits and at first glance it looks like I might end up rewriting the entire thing! The comments and suggestions are amazing and very detailed, which means I have a lot to do to get it fixed up. I'm looking forward to the challenge!
Kelpie Blue is really starting to take shape. I'm trying to figure out just how fast I want the romance to go, especially since there are going to be some time skips. I also need to solidify the overarching plot that will carry the story through to the end. I would say I've never worked on something this complicated before, but Magnified and If A Butterfly Don't Fly are both as challenging. I'm kicking myself a little bit for working on all three at the same time.
Riptide Publishing has posted new anthology prompts. Without an invitation or an agent, being accepted for an anthology call is the only way to become one of their authors. I have ideas for three or four of their calls so I'm going to give it a try! Keep an eye on my Current Projects section for all the info on what I'm working on. LT3 also has a new call out that I'm interested in writing for, so I have lots to work on! I really hope I can do it!

The Finding the Wolf audiobook is officially available today! WorldWide Audiobooks released it earlier this week, but today is the day other audiobook retailers begin to sell it as well! FtW is already available with Audible! Keep an eye on your favorite audiobook retailer to get your copy today. The rest of the series will be available in audiobook in just one month!
I think I'm working on too many stories right now. I'm having trouble sticking to one for long enough to add measurable length to the word count. I've written a couple hundred words in just about every story I've worked on this week, but I don't feel like I've actually advanced any plots. I haven't gotten pulled exclusively into just one story, which means that when I sit down to work on one, ideas for one of the others start filtering in. I inevitably switch to a different story multiple times throughout the day. It's not fun and I'm really hoping something changes soon.

Finding the Wolf is officially available as an audiobook! You can purchase it right now from Red Planet Audiobooks. It will roll out to all third-party vendors starting on its scheduled release date of February 15th. LT3 will link to other vendors as the audiobook becomes available. The rest of the Dragon's Hoard series will follow next month!
I have an official release date for Wings of the Stars. It will be ready for sale on April 2, 2014. Look for pre-order sales to start sometime in March!
I have written a good chunk of The Oracle's Golem. I have an idea of where I want the story to go and I'm getting ideas for book four of the series as well. My goal is to have Golem in LT3's hands before Hatchling comes out on March 5th. I think it's very doable!
Just a reminder, there's only a few more days to buy My Truest Love, part of Rocking Hard Volume 2, for a 15% discount. It goes on sale February 12th. Paint, Guns, Money, and Love will also start running on LT3's serial section on February 12th. There's so much to look forward to next week!

January was a pretty good month in terms of writing! I finished writing Road to Home and now it's somewhere in LT3's editing queue. Heartbeat was also accepted for their Satisfaction Guaranteed anthology. I've finished the edits for The Oracle's Hatchling, due out in March, and Heart's Tournament, due out in May.

Magnified has exploded in terms of size and depth this past month, with no signs of slowing down any time soon. I've also started work on a new paranormal fantasy about fae and singing called If A Butterfly Don't Fly.
My goals in February are simple enough: write a lot! I would like to finish Magnified and The Oracle's Golem. I would also love to finish all the research I need for Butterfly and Kelpie Blue. At some point I would also like to get my Trickster's Eye series going, but that's on the bottom of my to-do list.

February also has some exciting releases to keep an eye out for! Rocking Hard Volume 2 is already available for pre-order. If you buy it now you can get 15% off. It arrives in stores on February 12. Paint, Guns, Money, & Love will begin running in LT3's weekly serial section on February 12. If you have a serial subscription be sure to check it out! On February 15 Finding the Wolf will come out in audiobook, which is amazing. I'm really looking forward to hearing the finished product. As always I will post more February news as I learn it!

Road to Home is done. Sort of. All that's left is editing, but that editing includes trying to add about 1k words so I meet my minimum word count. I want the sequel to be nearly the same length as the original. It shouldn't be too hard to find places to expand. I also need to add a few short paragraphs to the epilogue. Finishing a story is the hardest part, because I have to tie everything up neatly and let my characters go. I'm expecting to be ready to submit to LT3 by the end of the month!
Speaking of submissions: still no word. I'll give LT3 and DSP another week before I bug them about it. I'm still hoping for good news!
I've posted the covers of the Dragon's Hoard audiobooks. They're a smaller version of the original covers, but still very awesome. Finding the Wolf will be released on February 15, 2014. The next three books will all be released together on March 15, 2014. I'll post more information on the audiobooks as I learn more!

I'm guessing no news is good news, when it comes to submissions. I've never worked with DSP before, so I don't know how long it will take them to get back to me. LT3 is currently going on a journey and I'm not expecting any word from them until they return. Hopefully they're busy putting together a contract instead of a rejection letter. Am I being too impatient?
I'm sure you've all seen the cover for The Oracle's Hatchling, since I posted it everywhere. It's beautiful! In case you missed it, click here. The edits for Hatchling are back with LT3 and heading towards the next step in the publishing process. I don't foresee any issues having the story ready to go by March 5th. Keep an eye out for it to go on pre-order soon!
I have heard the demos for The Dragon's Hoard Audiobook. It was kind of surreal (but also totally awesome) hearing someone give voice to the characters inside my head. For some reason all of my characters were given British accents, which was a surprise to me. Did anyone else have British voices in their heads while reading Finding the Wolf? I am so excited to hear how it turns out.
It's been a busy time on the writing front. Job number three ended, so I've suddenly got a ton more time and energy to write, which is lovely. Magnified is still going well, but I'm at a delicate point where all the foreshadowing is coming to a head. If I don't get it right the entire story may flop, so it's slow going with much rewriting. Road to Home is picking up again and it is going to be amazing. I almost can't write it fast enough to keep up with the ideas in my head! I have also begun work on a new story tentatively titled If a Butterfly Don't Fly. It's got a music theme, but I'll be throwing in some fae at some point. I'll put together a work summary for you guys sometime next week.
