Marquise of Carabas Update (Puss in Boots Retelling)

Good evening! I’m taking a short break from my manuscript tonight. It’s going well, but with the craziness that has been my life in the last week, I’m afraid I’m not going to be finished by the end of the month. I also got stuck. Writer’s block, ya’ll–it’s a real thing, and it stinks. According […]

Letter to Readers

Hello! There’s a good chance that if you’re visiting today, you found Pippa of Lauramore on Bookbub. First, I want to thank you so much for taking a chance on my book. I truly hope you enjoyed it. But I’m not going to discuss Pippa today. What I want to talk about it is how […]

Cover Reveal – Audette of Brookraven

  The Final Chapter in The Eldentimber Series When Audette pictured her wedding day, she never imagined leaving her intended at the alter. And though Irving, a prince with a reputation for trouble, never cared to picture the grand event (and had rather hoped he could somehow avoid it altogether), he certainly wouldn’t have imagined […]

Pippa of Lauramore and Glitter and Sparkle are both in two huge multi-author giveaways. I’ll have more details and links to […]

Current Projects

Good morning, everyone! Here is a list of my current projects, along with the announcement of a new one. Next month, I will be writing The Marquise and Carabas: A Puss in Boots Retelling. It’s a project I’ve had floating around in my head, but it never seems like I have time to tackle it. […]

Review Club (Free Books!)

You may have seen me joke that reviews are catnip for authors. Well, it’s the truth. Reviews help customers decide whether they want to take a chance on a book, give promotion companies an idea if the book is a good match for their services, and let Amazon know that people are enjoying an author’s work. […]

Glitter and Sparkle Releases Friday! (Monday Update)

I’m so ridiculously excited about the release of Glitter and Sparkle. Friday, guys. Friday! For those of you who follow my personal blog, you may have already read the backstory behind the book, but I’m going to go ahead and post some of it here today:     This novel was sparked into life by […]

Glitter and Sparkle – Cover Reveal – Part 2

You know what’s fun? Changing a book’s cover eight days before the release. That’s right. That’s how I roll. So what do you think? I sort of love it to pieces! You can find out more about the book on Amazon. (The old cover is still showing, but the update should be through their system […]

Monday Update

Good evening, all! I’m mixing it up a bit and doing today’s blog post at the end of the day instead of the morning. My husband’s mother, sisters, and I started a weight loss challenge today. We’re not competing, but I certainly don’t want to be the one that falls behind, so this morning I […]
