Elemental Ride

It's been a while since I've written a blog post that wasn't just to promote an upcoming release. The last few weeks have been focused exclusively on If A Butterfly Don't Fly and on Wounded Alpha. Now that those two books are out (and readers are loving them!), I can return to telling you about edits and about writing. My editor and I are really chugging along! Over the last few weeks we've completed the first round of edits for Road to Revenge, my contemporary crime thriller. Road to Revenge is one of my earliest books, but I am really enjoying the opportunity to shine it up for everyone. I don't write contemporary often, but this particular series is definitely one of my faves. Road to Revenge is slated to come out this June! We have also started the first round of edits for Elemental Ride, my quirky urban fantasy short story about a guy, his bike, and his rather unusual mailman. Elemental Ride is scheduled to re-release this July. We're also still making a ton of progress on the rest of books coming out in the next few months. We completed the second round of edits for Finding the Wolf, and both The Coup and the Prince and Justified are completely ready to go. In fact, Justified is available for pre-order at NSP right now. If you buy through NSP, you'll get your e-copy three days earlier than the May 3rd release date. I have also somehow fit a lot of writing into my schedule. The third (and right now final) book in my Witch's Circle stories is almost done. I am currently setting up the final battle, and once that's written all that's left is to wrap up the book. I admit I'm a bit surprised at how smoothly this series has gone, but I'm very hopeful as soon as I get it completely written I'll be able to focus on some of the books patiently waiting on my to-do list. 9/09/20
Yes, you read the title correctly! Every single manuscript I sent to NSP for consideration has now been accepted. The last stragglers were my entire Dragon's Hoard series (minus the short story collection, which I cant submit just yet), Elemental Ride, The Coup and the Prince, and Space Stars. It's taken a year of hard work to reach this point, and I am incredibly excited! When will you be able to buy any of those books? I can't say with any certainty right now, but I'm hoping NSP will weave them into the 2022 release schedule. "What do you mean, I have to wait until 2022 to buy Tori's book again!?!?" Sorry, but I have so many books in NSP's queue that my Dragon's Hoard series was unfortunately pushed to the end. It's my very first series and Finding the Wolf was my first accepted manuscript at LT3, so I promise you I'm as eager to get Tori, Nyle, and White back on the digital shelves as you are. (For anyone wondering, Tori is a very similar and equally lovable character to Lumie.) This also means I can start shifting my focus from the past to the future. It's time to start writing brand new material again rather than just worrying about all my reprints. Yes, I will be editing endlessly for the next few years, so writing time will continue to be limited, but it finally feels like I'm making forward progress again with my writing. 2/23/20
It's been a very long February for me. Some unhappy family issues pulled me away from writing for about two weeks, and I'm only now caught up. That said, a lot has happened recently that I want to fill you in on, so I'm going to write another long post full of fun information. Read on: Submissions to NineStar Press:
That's it for news for February. I know there's a lot going on, and it's probably going to continue being a fire hose deluge of things to do until at least this time next year. I'm enjoying it, though, and I'm so glad you're all sticking through it all with me as we all patiently wait for all my books to become available again. 1/31/20
I can't tell you how many blog posts I've written this month where, just before I was ready to post, I got more news and had to rewrite. I think this is my third or fourth attempt to get out a blog post, but there's so much to tell you I'm just going to post what I have, and I may end up writing another blog post tomorrow. Either way, this post is really long, but I promise there's exciting stuff inside. Read on: Submissions to NineStar Press:

The covers for Elemental Ride and Ner Li, two of my upcoming books, arrived a few weeks ago. Since those books will be coming out soon, I thought I should actually share the covers. They're both absolutely beautiful!
