Interim Goddess of Love
My new YA romance novella, Interim Goddess of Love, is out now!
College sophomore Hannah Maquiling doesn't know why everyone tells her
their love problems. She's never even had a boyfriend, but that doesn't
stop people from spilling their guts to her, and asking for advice. So

that she's going to have to take on this

2011 Recap: 4.5 out of 5!

I finished two (as yet unpublished) novellas this year, and outlined two more. I also did concept work on a new series that I fully intend to outline.

Where in the world
A few posts ago, I put up a chart showing where my ebook sales were coming from.

Pie Chart: My ebook retailers
This week, I checked my 2011 stats from my various ebook retailers and was pleasantly surprised to see that Barnes and Noble sales have been picking up. What "picking up" means I'll let you imagine, given the big-picture pie chart of where my 2011 sales have come from.But since I am all about making sure that everyone who wants to spend $0.99 to read me can do so conveniently, I have added
