The Vullens' Curse book release!
The Vullens' Curse, my new fantasy novel, is soon to be released in April! So excited for this brand new novella series that takes place in the land of Jade.
Description:
There is a myth on Jade. Of creatures that can boil your blood.
King Lowen’s wife, Gal’adryl, has fallen under the spell of a disease with no cure. He will stop at nothing to restore her. Even if that means capturing the deadly creature. The Vullen.
Travel into the world of Jade where deities roam, seers hide, and blood thirsty creatures lurk in the darkness.

I have 5 million story ideas running through my head
Okay, so maybe not 5 million. But, seriously. I feel like I have multiple stories tapping their feet, crossing their arms, and just waiting for me to put fingers to the keyboard and write them. I was just thinking of a new one today and jotted down a couple pages on paper. (Almost every story I've published started on scribbling something on paper on break at work!) I keep having to buckle down and focus. I have to finish my fantasy books first (this is the speech I tell myself even when my fans are asking me, "When is the next Heart of Grace book going to be out?") I did write a good 30 pages on the next one, but no, no, I need to focus on the other ones first! Lol. See what I go through? Haha...so much to write so little time!

Cloaked Book 4 of the Jade Series
New Release Coming soon!
I just hit the publish button on "Cloaked" Book 4 of the Jade Series. I'm super excited to release this one!!! It's been a long wait for all my fans, and I really hope they check it out! I plan on having just one more in the series (going to be a monstrous book if I do just one more) But of course, because my brain is overactive I've been having thoughts about a prequel series now! It will probably be awhile on the prequels though, just because I'm jumping between two series. I've been currently working on the next Heart of Grace book. It's coming a long really great!! I hope everyone checks out Cloaked if you've loved the world of Jade.

My emotional status when writing
I've been working on a fantasy series for about 2 years now. Needless to say, these characters feel so real, that I get overly concerned for them when I'm writing their story. I was writing a scene on lunch yesterday and this was my reaction right here:
I certainly have had my heart grip as one of characters are facing a life and death situation, even though I know what's going to happen.

I get what I call a writer's high, where I seriously want to start dancing, screaming, or crying hysterically.

Meet My Character Tour
Meet My Character Blog Tour
FP Spirit, author of The Ruins on Stone Hill (Heroes of Ravenford Book 1)
asked me to be part of the “Meet My Character Blog Tour”
You can read more about him and find his Meet My Character post here. http://fpspirit.com/news/
The Ruins on Stone Hill (Heroes of Ravenford Book 1) http://amzn.com/B00L5JN5SE
In this character tour I’ve been asked to answer a few questions about one of the main characters on a work in progress book. I am currently writing a prequel to my epic fantasy series: The Jade Series. Here is a link to the first novel which is FREE: http://amzn.com/B00C7XETLY
1) What is the name of your character?
Her name is Taylynn. She is just one of the brand new characters coming up in this prequel. She is a race that for now I am keeping a secret until the final chapter of Jade is released coming up in the fall.
2) When and where is the story set?
This story is set pre-Jade. Thousands and thousands of years ago when Jade wasn’t quite “Jade.” You will recognize some of the world, but most will be unfamiliar.
3) What should we know about him/her?
I knew right away that I liked Taylynn. She’s headstrong, brave, even a bit reckless. She believes in something much bigger and greater than herself, and she’s ready to defy anyone who tries to stop her. She walks in places no one dares walk.
4) What is the main conflict? What messes up his/her life?
Taylynn is put in a situation that she really has no control over. Forced between her wild personality and being shoved into a box, this girl has a strong choice to make when her father is pushing her into a relationship that she has no desire for.
5) What is the personal goal of the character?
This is hard without giving too much away! Let’s just say her goal will affect her people for generations to come. She has no idea that with one choice she will cause complete chaos and even change the face of her entire world. She is willing to do anything to protect a race that has been forgotten.
6) Is there a working title for this novel, and can we read more about it?
Not currently. It really takes me forever to come up with names. I have considered: Banished. This novel is in the baby stage! It is only 12k right now.
7) When can we expect the book to be published?
I wasn’t even planning on writing this right now! I sort of on a whim started it a week or so ago. I guess maybe next year sometime? I still have the last book of Jade to publish and one more book in my Heart of Grace Series. This is my fun little side project!
And now, I’ve tagged another gifted author who has agreed to join the blog tour. She will be posting her Meet My Character posts on July 8th (one week from today).
1. Meet Clarissa Cartharn Fabulous author of romance! Hop into romance after romance with this author who will spin a wonderful tale for you.
Her brand new dystopian romance will leave you breathless as you find yourself in a future world. Here’s a quick description of her book: Woodsmen
He wasn’t human. He was a chimera; part human-part animal. And yet he knew her, he felt her like no man had ever done
In the year 3035, where corporations rule the world and everything is merchandised, freedom rides on the hopes of one man- and he isn’t human.
When Jared Ryder storms into Callum House to stop his sister from working for the enemy, he is confronted with an equally raging Ellie Callum. He knows he should hate her- after all it was her father who was responsible for the death of his Da and the despicable oppression looming in his sector. But despite his pleading common sense, all he feels for her is instant attraction. But there is also something else that stands in his way from claiming her. He isn’t human.

How many times can I change a cover?
So, as you all know (or don't...haha) I keep playing around with my fantasy books. I finally have a cover that I like (I hope) and am officially hopefully done messing with it! Here are the two new covers for the series. I combined books and now the series will only be 3 books long instead of 5. What do you think?
