Release: WAR GAMES (Jacky Leon 11)

Here we are! Now, if you read my previous blog this week, you know this has been an insane few months since my December blog. We’re not here for any of that right now though!

We’re here because we have officially started the last 5 books of Jacky Leon, it’s here. Now, there’s no definite line of where one Jacky Leon arc ends and another begins, but between Scarred Resolved and War Games, we’re in the last arc. Here we are.

I could say more, but the closer we get to the end, the more risk ...

Life Update (It’s not bad!)

So in December, I said a lot. There was big news about how my husband and I are ending our marri\age.

And that’s still happening of course. I came to tell you all some updates about it, about the changes coming to my life, and such.

Like I’m moving in early March! Yes, I am leaving the desert of Arizona and heading to the beaches of Florida. I will say it’s northern Florida and I won’t live directly in a flood zone, but I won’t tell you more than that for right now. There’s a lot to be sai...

Important News About War Games (And the future)

War Games, Jacky Leon Book 11, was pushed back to February because I am getting a divorce after 11 years of marriage.

BEFORE I GO FURTHER:
DO NOT FIND MY HUSBAND TO MESSAGE/HARASS/BOTHER/SNOOP FOR ANY REASON.
LEAVE. HIM. ALONE.

I will admit that the reason I have been quiet is because I don’t generally share too much. I bet it doesn’t feel that way. I have been very open about a number of topics before from depression, anxiety, and burnout. I have mastered an art of tell you all just enough ...

Favorite Video Game Franchises

I was trying to think of a blog for the week. One thing I’ve wanted to do is just share more of my life and interests with everyone who reads my books. You might see some of interests creep into series. You’ve certainly seen a couple of my characters interested in video games. Jacky plays them occasionally when she has time (which she has very little of now), while Everly is very much a PC Gamer. Carey played with her brothers when she was younger, but she’s steadily grown out of it, looking for...

Newsletter Update!

Me and the newsletter. It’s been a rocky road trying to seamlessly merge doing one with my workflow.

But I think I finally found the service that will do it. I’ll be able to post a blog and send a newsletter all from the same place. Here, my own website! This was gonna be great once I got everything else back on track, right? I was going to smooth out my workflow so that doing the newsletter wasn’t some arduous, log into another site, deal with their builder, and system and all that. It was a...

Preorder: WAR GAMES (Jacky Leon 11)

Oh look, a preorder! This isn’t my next release, which will be Everly Abbott Book 4, however, Everly will get a preorder closer to her release, which I’m planning for September or October.

Get your affairs in order. War doesn’t wait for anyone to be ready.

With the terrible recent events weighing on my mind, I know the only way I can go is forward. My family, our allies, and I know for certain that there is a sect of witches that want to control the ...

Release: SCARRED RESOLVE

It’s here! This blog is late because I forgot to schedule it. As I get back into the swing of things, I need to make a fresh checklist… Keep bearing with me and I promise, everything will get back on track. I know it’s been a hard couple of years over here, waiting on my releases and stuff. But we’re here! There’s a new book!

And before I drop the links for this book, let me make sure you all know. Everly’s Book 4 is next, however will get a preorder much closer to it’s release. Jacky 11, tho...

It’s here! Sorry for the wait, I was really making sure this book was ready and would have proper editing and everything. I’m so excited for this book and for everyone to read it!

BLURB:

I thought I would have time to heal from the loss of Fenris and everything that happened in Germany. The world had different plans.

After a mysterious phone call and a secret meeting, I need to get the help of my family to deal with what comes next. With two dead humans already, the unkno...

That Time Shadow’s Story Finally Finished in Audio

Sooooo…..Surprise! One of the things I, Erika, have been working on behind the scenes is finishing the audio for the last two books in the Redemption Saga.

Big thanks to Savannah Rivers for being an Amazing Sawyer.

Once Kristen gets the rights back to the first three books, which should be soon, it was licensed to Tantor for Seven Years). She will be re-recording them with Savannah Rivers. So it is the same person for all of the books.

Hi!

Yeah, I’m here. Hi, everyone. Been awhile. I know it’s 2024 and it’s been a year since something has released. My bad. I needed to fully step away and focus on some personal stuff in a more direct and focused way. None of that could be posted while I dealt with it. None of it will be posted now. So, we’re going to say I took a personal sabbatical that required me to step back from being in front of the world. It’s true. There will be no more information about why I wasn’t around for a year.

I...
