Giveaway: Dragon Consultant
Dragon Consultant is the first book in my new Supernatural Consultant series. It comes out on December 9th and I am unbelievably excited. I enjoyed working with the characters in the story so much it blossomed into a ten book series. I’ve been talking about Dragon Consultant and the rest of the series a ton over the last few months and my readers can finally read it and learn why I’m so happy.
To celebrate, I’m holding a giveaway. Three people will receive an e-copy in the...

News: It’s Going Well So Far
11/5/15
The month of November has barely started and I’m already off with a bang. The first goal on my list was to get the edits for Dragon Dilemma completed and back to the editor for round two. I have already written the scene that needed to be added and reworked the other problem areas. All that’s left is one or two more comments to tackle and a final read through. I should have it done in another day or two.The second thing on my goals list was Elemental Ride. I wanted to fini...

November Goals
Goal number one is to eat lots of turkey and pumpkin pie. Okay, that’s just my goal for Thanksgiving, but it’s a delicious one! This month I want to write a lot and maybe get at least one story completed. Here’s my list:
Edits. The edits for Dragon Dilemma arrived in my inbox a few days ago. I’ve been working on them steadily, but I need to add at least one big scene and rewrite a few others. I have two weeks left to complete it, so this has to top my to-do list this mo...October Goals: Results
I got a lot accomplished this month, except I wasn’t able to tick off every item on my goals list like I was supposed to. Instead I let my muses take me where they would. Luckily for me, that was my number three goal, so it wasn’t like I was completely deviating from my to-do list. I just wish I was able to do more. Here’s how I did:
The Oracle’s Current. Saying I couldn’t get inspired to work on this story isn’t correct. The problem is that I was more insp...October 29, 2015
News: Fun Things
10/29/15
There are a number of fun things going on in my writing world right now. First, of course, is the fact that I have submitted The Case of the Wandering Wolves to LT3’s Private Dicks call. I hope they like it. LT3 doesn’t start reviewing submissions until after the due date, so it will be a while before I hear. I’ll let everyone know whether they accept it or not once I know.Second on this list is the edits for Dragon Dilemma. There’s a lot to do so it’s...
