The 2020 Plan

I think it’s pretty obvious that I love goals. The beginning of the year is a great time to sit back and place some big goals and focus on something long term. This year I want to focus on not just hitting goals but building better habits for myself. This is a year of focus,…

For the Love of Words: The Year End Recap

When I started 2019 I had some ambitious goals: five books published this year. Tomorrow I’ll publish #3, so that’s pretty good considering the last year I had published anything was in 2016. When I first started the original draft of Airtime and Alibis in the spring of 2018, I thought it would be a…

For the Love of Books: 2019 Recap

\This post contains affiliate links which help support this indie author. You can learn more about those here. After 70 books in 2018, including an almost fifty-book series, I spent much of this year burned out on reading. To say I was needing a break was an understatement, and honestly, it’s only been in this…

Cover Reveal: Cameras and Confessions

It’s funny, I feel like every book release, the book cover comes at a different point. For Bullets and Bylines, I released the book two months later. Airtime and Alibis’ cover came the week before hand, and for Double Played, the cover came out six months before the book did. Some book covers are easy to do, some, like this one…

For the Love of Words: November 2019

Let’s talk about NaNoWriMo – it happens every year and almost every year I fail. In fact, when it came to November 30th, Facebook memories reminded me that the last time I won NaNoWriMo was in 2016. And I won in 2016 because I lost my job a third of the way into the month.…

For the Love of Reading: November 2019

It’s funny how going home or spending time with my family makes me read more. Or at least I feel like it does, even though I don’t know for sure. While I still only read two full books this past month, I feel like I was reaching for a book more consistently than before. And…

December Goals

Every year, I feel like the last 45 days of the year aren’t really a part of the year, but the pre-planning stage for the next year. The time between my 26th birthday and 2020 isn’t much different except for one little book still waiting to get published. December is going to be about planning…

Black Friday Sales Start Now

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday, in whatever way you wanted to spend it! Originally, I thought I would be staying in Austin and just enjoying four days off but I ended up traveling to see my parents this weekend and I’m glad I came. While you’re either recovering from your food coma…

Cameras and Confessions Sneak Peek 2

Cameras and Confessions is the third book in the Emily Burnet Series. I promise, it will be out before the year ends. It’s funny, because I’ve spent this month in the Cassie Morgan Series, it feels like I haven’t been working with Emily in forever. Cassie has really taken over in my brain and it’s gonna be hard…

Laura’s Loves: True Crime Podcasts

I am an avid lover of podcasts. My day job consists of typing all day, so I can get away with headphones in all day. I listen to a lot of different podcasts, mostly either politics related or true crime related. Because I listen to a lot of politics on both sides of the aisle,…
