Back from the Abyss – Updates and Previews
Happy Monday, everyone. Wow, I can’t believe how quickly 2016 is flying by! I am overdue for some updates and blog posts, so killing two birds with one stone this week. (But no dragons. I’m totally against killing dragons. Off the page, anyway.)
First, a few updates for Kyra Jacobs fans…
After an unexpected closing of my publisher for book 1 in my new fantasy dragon shifter series (and then unclosing, and then…well, its complicated), I have decided to push forward and self-publish books 2 and...

The Dragons Have Arrived!
It’s finally here – release day for DRAGONS AMONG THEM! In case you haven’t heard, though I’mstill writing contemporary romance, I’ve also ventured into my first fantasy/paranormal romance series. The Kingdoms of Fire and Ice is set to be a trilogy, which meansthere should be plenty more of Zayne and Addie to be had in the coming months.
Speaking of months, I realized as I was writing this post that it’s been fifteen months since this book’s first draft was completed. 15 months of editing, pr...

It’s Dragons Eve!
Happy Monday, everyone! Ooo, I can hardly sit still long enough to write this post aswe are less than 24 hours away from my new fantasy romance series finally taking flight! Tomorrow marks the release of book 1, DRAGONS AMONG THEM, and I can hardly wait. It feels like Christmas Eve, except with dragons!;-)
So to celebrate, I’m here to share with you two things. First, my blog tour from the amazing Bewitching Book Tours kicks off today. Tons of great interviews and sneak peeks! Be sure to foll...

Judy Post is Cooking Up Trouble
My dear friend Judy Post has a new book coming out the week before my next release, so there will be lots of celebrating here in Fort Wayne next month. Interestingly enough, each of our releases involves us stepping into new genres for us, respectively. After visiting Judy’s blog recently (see post here) I thought it would be fun to have Judy visit here and pick her brain as well. It’s a lovely brain, really. Full of all sorts of wonderful information. So thank you, Judy, for agreeing to subj...

Shifters–gotta love ’em
Sharing in case you missed this over the weekend. I had a lovely trip to my friend Judith Post’s blog. Swing on by for a few fun excerpts of my upcoming novel, won’t you? The DRAGONS take flight 4 weeks from today…
This is a gorgeous cover, isn’t it? The protagonist looks so alluring as a golden dragon, I can’t wait to read about what he looks like as a mortal:) My fellow writer/wonderful…

Stepping Out from the Shadows
Before there was a book or a tweet there was a blog. A happy little blog, one intended to introduce Kyra Jacobs to the great bigworld of, well, people who read blogs. As time went on, Indiana Wonderer drew the attention of a few kind, dedicated readers–I’m talking about you, Liz, Judy, Gabs and Mae–who read and commented on just about every post. (You have no idea how much I love each of you for that.)
Then came the first book, and my lovely little blog shifted focus from anecdotal pieces to...

Psst…it’s me…
Hello, my beloved Indiana Wonderer followers. I know it’s been a while–a long while–but I’m writing to say all is not lost. In fact, all is headed on an epic journey in 2016.
Despite 2015 being an incredibly difficult year for me behind the scenes, my book release of HER UNEXPECTED DETOUR, a Checkerberry Inn series novel was the best I’ve had so far.And it marked a wonderful new beginning for my writing as I stepped away from writing in first person, single point of view (female main characte...

Sale and News
Happy Thursday, everyone! I’ve crawled out of the writing cave to say “hello!” and let you know of two exciting tidbits of information.
First, my publisher for HER UNEXPECTED DETOUR is having an imprint-wide sale this week only. All BLISS titles are only 99cents on all vendor sites. All sites!
That’s…insane, really. I mean, you can more or less stock your entire ebook shelves for the winter all for less than a trip to Arby’s. I’m seeing readers commenting on Twitter and Facebook that they’ve...

The Dragons are Coming…
Happy Wednesday, everyone! And ooooh, do I have some exciting news to share with you all today! I have kept relatively quiet online about a new series that sunk its claws into me several months back, but if you follow me on Twitter you might have seen a tweet or two with this hashtag:
#dragons
Yes, I officially went off the writerly deep end last December (temporary moment of insanity after skipping out on NaNoWriMo, perhaps?) and set my WIP aside to write a fantasy romancethat would NOT leav...
