Back in a few weeks!

I’m off to Ireland and France for a bit.  (Yay, finally getting my honeymoon!  SO EXCITED!)   I’ll be back in a few weeks, and then the teasers for Found will be starting to pop up.   See you in mid-May!

New cover designs coming soon!

Probably later today or maybe Monday, I should be receiving the new cover redesign for both Lost and Found. Hooray! :)

Also, check the Found page for some new information. Blurb's going up shortly after this post. :)

Time to get to work!

I have all the content ready for Found now, my tendonitis has recovered, and it’s time to get to work writing!  :)


Stay tuned for sneak peeks into the sequel (and conclusion) to Lost!

Lost now available on Paperback!

Hooray! If you were waiting for the paperback version, it has gone live two days early on Amazon. :)


The last set of proof copies were gorgeous, so I’m excited for the real copies to arrive for giveaway winners!


Thanks for reading Lost, and I hope you enjoy it. :)

'Lost' revision is complete! Amazon version is now safe to get again.

The revision of 'Lost' correcting the 9-Mar-2013 chapter flip has been published to Amazon! Huzzah! (Better late than never, I suppose.)

Readers can now grab the book at their leisure, and I can now start trying to live down the shame. :)

Amazon is reviewing the correction and should be pushing an update notification to all Kindle readers ASAP.

Thanks again for buying the book, and I apologize to those of you who were affected by this. I shall place a bag over my head and get back to work on the sequel.

...and not repeat this mistake. Yeah.

Good evening!


Better late than never… the revision of ‘Lost’ correcting the 9-Mar-2013 chapter flip has been pushed through Amazon! Huzzah!

Lost update is stuck in review on Amazon. Working on it!

Hello again!

I know I said that the fixed version of Lost would be available on 16-Mar-2013, but it’s looking like it might be the 17th or later. I’ll post an update if it goes through today, but here’s the long and short of it:

Previously, two individuals decided not only to pirate Lost but to pretend to be me and sell it on Amazon. It's one thing to pirate a book, and another thing completely to try to sell it, so I had the illegal versions flagged for removal.

Amazon took care of those two versions in a hurry, but while doing so, it appears that they added Lost to a list of books they keep an eye on now that someone had tried to illegally distribute it. When I uploaded the fixed copy to correct the chapter issues, Amazon flagged my own update as suspicious activity and required I provide documentation to prove I’m the author.

I’ve provided everything they’ve asked for, but until they release the hold on the corrected version, nobody with a Kindle will be able to get it. If you purchase books through Kobo or the B&N Nook store, however, your copies are all correct!

I’m sorry that this has turned into such a big issue, and I apologize to everyone who has a flawed copy of the book.

The flipped-chapter fix is in review on Amazon.
