Got Questions?
Somehow this picture makes me laugh every time. Me? An authority on self publishing? It’s like looking for a grown up and realizing you are the grown up.
But the good folks at Toronto Romance Writers seem to think I meet the criteria, and after almost 10 books, i guess I know more than some.
I’m on a virtual panel with Zoe York and Tara Crescent on July 10 about the nuts and bolts of navigating self publishing. Everything from finding an editor and a cover designer to figuring out what to do with pesky things like taxes. Got a question? I just might have an answer.
Not from Toronto? No problem. TRW has a great guest policy that says you can attend one meeting for free. Details are here. And if you are local and you’ve already used your free meeting, you can do a second one a la carte for $25!
See you there!

All Stars Book Club Interview
Thank you so much to Zara and Camille who invited me to join them for the month of May at the All Stars Lesfic Book Club. We spent the month talking pirates, high seas, and all things Uncharted.
To wrap up, we took a minute to chat more in detail about the process of writing Uncharted, where the writerly seas will take me next and why Camille and I will never truly be friends when it comes to hockey. You can see the whole thing here!
