Yes, Sandra and Jonas are the stars of the entire trilogy…

It seems, judging from some commentary, people missed the memo; the Magically Hellish series is a one character led romp. Sandra is the lead perspective for the entire trilogy.

That’s why it’s spun off as it is; it’s ONLY about Sandra and her exploits with her friends and family–and it keeps things nice and neatly contained as it goes off in a different direction from the main series. It spun off because it doesn’t neatly fit the plan for the main magical romantic comedy series, which usually...

And here comes the bad news… re: preorder date changes.

Hey, folks. Honestly, this is too important to put in the hands of the felines, who are recovering but are still a bit grumpy.

I will be moving all of my preorders out a month. So Booked for Kidnapping will be moving to October. Up in Smoke will be moving to December. Plaidypus will be moving to January, and Silent Stalker will be moving to March.

I need the breathing space. COVID has been hard, people bitching and moaning over how DARE I not write a standalone with the exact characters they w...

Client from Hell drops tonight! (Already out in Australia. Hooray!)

Step one: add some gasoline.
Step two: light a match.
Step three: watch the devil’s house burn.

As far as plans go, Sandra Moore rather likes hers. It’s simple. It gets the job done. It reduces the devil’s house to smoldering ruins. Life is good—at least for the year she has left of it, assuming the devil doesn’t kill her first.

Instead of the quick end and the retribution she deserves, Sandra gets the client from hell for the case of a lifetime, one that could forever change the war bet...

General update, upcoming schedule clarifications, etc, etc, etc

Dear interwebs,

I, Zazzle the Beguiling Tyrant, managed to scratch my eye. It should be okay, but I’m stubborn and refuse to cooperate with humans. My sister managed to somehow locate some fleas, so we’re getting combed and sprayed and yuckies. We do not appreciate this.

The humans do not appreciate it, either.

We appreciate it less. Suck that, humans.

Anyway, you now get the human, I’m going to resume being hyperactive and refusing to let my kitty mommy do more than make sure my eye...

2022 Publication Schedule.

Greetings, folks.

RJ here. The cats are melted on the floor taking naps. I am using this picture of Devil Spawn because I love her. She has new tag holders, and they read “My other ride is a unicorn” to go with her gas cap decal that reads “Born to be a Unicorn.” The rear spoiler will have a decal that reads “Clever Girl.” It features a velociraptor.

There will be an undead unicorn figuring somewhere in the vehicle, although the home for said figurine is yet to be decided.

Onto the real pur...

Dear humans,

What’s this? A sale? It’s a sale!

Grave Humor has a bookbub coming up, and the female has decided to put all of the novellas in the Mag Rom Com series on sale at the same time. So, you can get five books for $4.95, or you can wait until June 14, and you can get five books for $18.95.

We think you should so get the boo...

Lighthouse restoration fundraiser!

Dear humans,

For entirely selfish reasons involving an entire weekend without the humans under foot bothering us, we present the East Brother LightHouse gofund me. The female loves islands. The female loves boats. The female loves lighthouses. The female loves bed and breakfasts.

Assuming the lighthouse is open in October, the male is taking the female for her birthday! (COVID is a bugger!)

As the lighthouse is, well, on an island in the middle of the San Francisco Bay, it needs special...

Catnapped has released!

When someone steals Diana’s cat, a former lab animal rescued from death’s door, she calls on one of the most dangerous beings in the universe for help. Cutting a deal with the devil isn’t the smartest move, but there’s no way in hell she’ll abandon Mr. Flooferson the Magnificent to his fate.

Teaming up with the son of a demon, an angel, and one hell of a woman might push Diana to the limits of her courage and sanity. Unless she wants to sell her soul to the devil, she must cope with her n...
