A Ton of Progress
Things are happening at an incredible pace right now. Every time I try
to write a blog post, something new comes up and I have to scrap what
I’ve written. I’m hoping to get this one posted before that happens
again! Let me break all the news up into readable sections:
Accepted Manuscripts
NSP has accepted all six books in The Oracle series! This includes the brand new final book, The Oracle’s Current. We have decided to rename The Sentinel’s Prophesy to The Oracle’s Prophesy so it fits in b...

A Break From Editing
7/15/20
I am caught up on editing. Shocking, I know, but I don’t have any edits to complete right now. The copy edits for Dragon Soldier,
book five in my Supernatural Consultant series, are complete and off to
the proof reader for final checks. I also completed the first round of
edits for Dragon Adventure, and expect the second half for Dragon Home to arrive soon, but until then I have no edits on my plate!
Which
means I finally have free time! Normally, I’d be taking this
opportunity t...

More Good News!
7/7/20
Dragon Dilemma is available for preorder at NSP.
It comes out on July 20th, but if you buy from NSP you can get it three
days earlier! (FYI, if you already own Dragon Dilemma, not much has
changed in this re-release.) I have also seen the first draft of the
new cover and it’s as amazing as the rest of the series. I can’t wait
to share it too.
Road to Revenge and Road to Home
were both accepted for publishing at NSP! I very rarely write
contemporary, but I loved writing both of ...

Non-Editing News
6/20/20
These days it seems like all I have to talk about in these blog posts is editing. Yes, editing for my Supernatural Consultant series continues at a good pace, and we’re ahead of schedule, but there’s more
to my writing world than that and I want to share it with you.
I’ve submitted two huge projects to NSP:
First was my fairy tale collection. I’m calling it A Little Fairy Dustand it’s a collection of every single fairy tale story I’ve written to
date. It includes Cleanly Wrong and ...

Q & A
6/16/20
I’ve been getting a bunch of questions from my
readers about a number of different stories and topics. I thought I
ought to post some answers in a central location where everyone can read
them. If I missed your question, or if you have more questions, feel
free to reach out to me (comment on any of my blog posts, on Goodreads,
on Facebook, or Twitter) and I’ll definitely answer it.
Q: You said Alloy is going to have a story with the crazy territory leader in Texas. Where is that s...

Writing The Oracle’s Current
5/10/20
I’ve been working diligently on The Oracle’s Current these last few weeks (in between all the editing) and I’ve made so much progress. The story went from being stuck at the beginning, with me desperately trying to figure out how to get the characters started on their journey, to almost being complete. I was on such a high with how well the writing was going. Yesterday was a great day for writing. I added a ton and was halfway through writing the final battle...

Ge-Mi News!
5/8/20
I have so much news about Ge-Mi that I’m bursting at the seams! First, an official release date for Part Two: May 18, 2020. The best part is, you can preorder it right now from NSP, and if you do, you can get it three days earlier than from anywhere else! Here’s the link: https://ninestarpress.com/product/ge-mi-part-two/ I’m certain it will be available for preorder or to buy from other retailers soon, but three days sooner is awesome.
Next is the cover, which is a...
