Character Names, Part Wherever We Left Off
Edits are underway for A Flame Among the Stars, and I’ve also seen a mockup of the cover, which is AMAZING. As soon as I’m allowed to share it, I will, because it’s seriously gorgeous. I don’t want to spoil anything, but: DRAGON. Also, as soon as I have a firm release date, I’ll be […]

Trope-Tastic Tuesdays: The Lost Lenore
(Parts of this were originally published on March 28, 2013) Trope: The Lost Lenore Description: The Lost Lenore is a dead love interest of one of the main characters.

Trope-tastic Tuesdays: Raven Hair, Ivory Skin
Trope: Raven Hair, Ivory Skin Description: Though beauty ideals tend to go in cycles when it comes to what’s popular at any given moment, Raven Hair, Ivory Skin is one of those tropes that’s often used as a shortcut for “this character is physically attractive”. Due to said cycles, these characters can take on all […]

Trope-tastic Tuesdays: Hot Chick in a Badass Suit
(Parts of this were originally posted on February 7, 2013) Trope: Hot Chick in a Badass Suit Description: No link to the trope this time, because apparently in the years since I wrote the original post, TV Tropes has decided a list of women suits isn’t trope-tastic enough. I still think it’s a valid way […]

Trope-tastic Tuesdays: (Defrosting) Ice Queen
(Parts of this were originally posted on January 17, 2013) Trope: Ice Queen (and its sub-trope, the Defrosting Ice Queen) Description: The Ice Queen is aloof and, well, frigid. She may not want to get emotionally close to anyone, or it may just be men she disdains. There are a few different ways her icy […]

Cover Reveal – Hunting Astrid

Pre-orders start on November 6th, and the official release day will be November 20th. Follow along wherever I’m available to be followed (I’ve actually been using […]

Starting Something New (Spoiler Alert, It’s a Newsletter)
All the cool kids have one, so I guess I should too? Something like that. A few posts ago, I mentioned how the rights for some of my earlier books have reverted back to me, and I plan on gradually re-releasing them. Combined with me also occasionally releasing shorter works that never found a good […]

A Humble Brag and a Humble “I Kind of Suck”
Because balance is everything. When last we left off, I was debating about whether or not to temporarily shelve Sonata for Springtime. (And, obviously, blogging about it instead of actually writing anything.) After some internal debate, I decided to keep plugging away at it. I did write maybe a third of a chapter or so, […]

Imperfection
The first round of edits for Closing Montage is done. The nice part about it being such a short novella is there wasn’t a whole lot to be done there. Or, more importantly, there weren’t many moments that made me go “oh god, I’m such an idiot,” which might be a first. We might be […]
