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.
The below images are links to the Audible pages.

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...

Table Tales: And we broke it! [DND]

I mentioned maybe blogging about my adventures in DnD. I play Dungeons and Dragons with a group of some of my oldest friends. Many of us met about ten years ago, living in Yokosuka, Japan while we were in the US Navy. I learned to play with two people I still play with today, one being my husband.
Today, I shall give you the first blog of Table Tales, which will be long. Clearly, this is the first time I’m blogging about it, so there’s some groundwork to set up to help everyone follow along. ...

Anxiety Paralysis, Depression, Burnout, and Changes.

I mean, the title says a lot, doesn’t it?
Do you ever have one of those days where you know you need to get several things done because people are relying on you? You make your list and you look it over. You look it over again, and again, and again…
And when you start doing the first task, your chest tightens. Breathing becomes harder, faster, shallower. Hands start to shake. You step away because it’s too much. It can be physically painful for some.
That’s been the majority of my days ...

The Cake Mix Cookie Recipe from Oath Sworn…and More!

I wanted to make sure everyone knew this recipe. K.N. shared it in the Facebook group years ago now. She gave the basic recipe, and I added some extras and converted it to the best of my ability for our international audience.
You can absolutely have fun with this recipe and mix and match all over the place. Experiment. Have fun.

Postponed: Secrets and Ruin (Jacky Leon 9)

It’s right there in the title.
I decided to give myself and my wonderful team of people an extra month with Secrets and Ruin. I know it’s the second release I’ve postponed in a row.
Secrets and Ruin is a really important book to me. I have been waiting for it for a long time, knowing different pieces of Jacky’s story was headed for this moment. Postponing it means I have to wait longer to share it, but it also means I can make extra sure it’s ready for all of you.
It’s a terrible way to...

Listen up! Now Here’s Your Theories from A to Z!

This group (we need a name, I am open to suggestions in the comments) is full of theories. With the Tribunal Archives being an interconnected world but separate series within that world, it allows for theories to abound. The more series you’ve read, the more tidbits and facts you know. Hence, the image of Charlie. We are all him trying to figure out who Pepe Silvia is when trying to figure out what’s going on and what secrets we can gather.
So, without further ado, and in absolutely no partic...
