  IT IS DONE. I started my blog post of July 13, 2022, with that same exact sentence. (Yes, I actually looked something up!) A smidge over a year ago, I had finished up the actual writing of the Searching the Skies series and sent it off. Now, after editing and cover design and whatnot, […]

  Phew! June was such a busy month with THREE book releases, I forgot to post here about the second two. (But you’re all subscribed to my newsletter and following me on social media, so you knew about them, right? Right??) At least I remembered to update all my tabs and buy links here, so […]

  Whoops, I’m a couple days late, but Defying the Skies, Book 2 of the Searching the Skies series, has been released! This is also a re-release, but I’ll post a short blurb and excerpt for a refresher. Before I do that, though, here’s the schedule for the rest of the series. The remaining three […]

  My very first book baby has gotten a makeover and is back out in the world. *dabs tears* Searching the Skies was originally published on January 26, 2012, which is a LONG time ago. That even predates this website, as I had absolutely no idea what I was doing back then. (Not like I […]

The release of A Flame Among the Stars went swimmingly, which is always a good thing. Reviews are popping up on Amazon and Goodreads, and they’re largely favorable. As of right this second, I don’t have any additional promotional events coming up, but that can always change! As the saying goes, however, there is no […]

If you haven’t seen the full cover for Disintegration yet (which means you may not be a newsletter subscriber or a Twitter buddy, which means you’re missing out!), here it is in all its glory: Everything’s still on track for an official release day of August 30th, though I may make the paperback live earlier. […]

(Parts of this were originally posted on February 21, 2013) Trope: (Green-Skinned) Space Babe Description: The attractive alien with mostly human features so having sex with him or her isn’t too squicky. While the fictional aliens of yore were mostly green, blue has been more common in recent years, though they can come in every […]

I’ve mentioned a couple of times over the past months that the first publisher I worked with has shut down, all the rights to my books have reverted back to me, and I had to figure out what to do with them. I took my planned writing break following the completion of A Flame Among […]

  Hunting Astrid has officially hit the shelves! I know I’ve said it before, but really, I’m so excited about this book. With the state of the world still being *gestures vaguely*, I think we could all use a little fast-paced fun in our lives.   We’re opting for Kindle Unlimited again, as it worked […]

We’re well into October, and everywhere I look, people are embracing the Halloween season. Honestly, I don’t have strong feelings either way about Halloween. I mean, it’s fun enough, but I was never the type to go completely crazy over it. And I’m old enough to think having leftover candy in the house is more […]

It seems strange to write about my writing life without mentioning current events, so I’m going to fumble my way through that first. Saying “oh, I don’t discuss politics on my writing website!” is taking the easy way out, and I need to do better than that. I’ll keep it brief, because 1) there are […]

Apparently my pandemic personality type is “restless evening energy.” Long story short, I felt the need to do something, so I decided to go back to some of my short stories that never found a home, make a cover for them, and put them up on Kindle Unlimited for free. (Or $0.99 if you’re not […]
