A new story in Kit’s world…

This isn’t a Kit book, though.

It’s a patreon project they’ll be getting it first, as soon as I’m done, so if you’d like get in on that, head over there and see what’s what.

This will be a short novella featuring Colleen and Justin, shortly after the events that took place in Haunted Blade, hopefully releasing in October.

News on Kit and Damon

I swear, I’m not dragging things out to torture people.

I’ve had several people email lately and I wanted to update you…and give an excerpt.

The update part…

I’ve mentioned this before, so some of you likely know, but Kit’s not an easy character to write. Normally, stepping into her shoes isn’t so emotionally draining but after my brother died, my depression came and kicked me in the face harder than ever before.

Writing entirely was nearly impossible for well over a year, save for my freelance writing.  I finally snapped out of that but it took much longer to start writing darker books. Kit Colbana, for all her sarcasm, has a lot of darkness within her. For the sake of my own mental health, I knew it was best to let the story come naturally, which it’s finally doing.

Now it’s just a matter of having the time to do it while working around my freelance work. Unfortunately, that’s the bulk of my income after a couple of years of writing so little for myself.

The good news is that I have more stories in my head than I can handle right now, I’ve sold three of the Kit books to a French translator and I’ve got other things in the works, so hopefully that light at the end of the tunnel isn’t a train.

Excerpt

“Put me through to him now, Scott,” I snarled, wishing I could reach through my car’s onboard computer to grab Damon’s lieutenant and throttle him.

Not that I’d have an easy time of it.

Scott topped me by a good foot. I scraped over five feet with a couple of inches, but plenty of the shifters in the area towered over me. Not to mention the vampires, more than a few of the witches and plenty of humans. Hell, even in the cold, fortress-like walls of Aneris Hall where I’d been raised, most of my aunts and my numerous cousins and the rest of the aneira had topped me by several inches.

I was used to being smaller than most of the people out there. I’d let my stature stop affecting me long ago.

Being shorter than most, and weaker than many just meant I’d have to work harder for it.

Scott’s bland hazel gaze held mine levelly, betraying nothing as he said, “The Alpha isn’t available, Kit.”

“Make him available, Scott.”

“Kit, I realize the Alpha has a great deal of faith in me but that doesn’t mean I’m able to make him appear out of thin air.” Scott lifted a brow. “You might need Chang for that.”

The deadpan humor was something Scott wouldn’t have dared used even a few months ago—and it was humor, not any attempt at disrespect. However, I recognized the dry comment for what it truly was…an attempt to direct my attention from him.

“I’m not done with you,” I warned him.

If I hadn’t been watching him so closely, I never would have seen the fine lines around his eyes tighten ever so subtly.

“I’m your servant, Kit, as you well know.”

“Shove it, Scott.” I disconnected and rapidly punched in the code that would connect me to Chang, Damon’s best friend and his real top hand man. I didn’t wait more than a few seconds before the screen flashed, then came to life, revealing a slim Asian man with liquid dark eyes, so deep a brown they appeared black and exquisitely honed features.

Chang was beautiful—and deadly—like a finely crafted blade.

Most people, like 99.99%, tread very carefully with him, even though there was something almost…ethereal about the calm that hung over Chang. It was like a cloak that encompasses him and I’d only seen it fractured a handful of times.

I suspected that calm came from age. He was old—I’d guessed that the second I meant I met him, but I’d had no idea how old. I still didn’t, but I had a better idea now.

The weight of his years didn’t weigh down on him, not like it did with petty mortals and mongrels like me. His age was something he carried with regal grace, elevating him to a loftier realm of existence.

I, however, was in much too bad a mood and felt like dragging him down into the muck where I was currently existed.

“Where the fuck is Damon?” I demanded.

Chang didn’t look put out by my irate tone or my foul mouth. He simply cocked his head to the side, eyes narrowing slightly. “He left word with Scott—did you check with him?”

“Scott won’t get him on the fucking phone,” I said, my rage now starting to make my voice shake.

Chang noticed.

Of course he noticed.

“Why don’t you explain what’s wrong?”

I almost exploded but at the last second, I was able to stop myself, mostly because I glimpsed a rare curiosity in Chang’s eyes—curiosity…meaning, he had no clue what was going on. That was odd. There was very little Damon didn’t tell Chang.

“Before Damon left on whatever the hell errand he had to do, did he put out word about interfering with my job?” I demanded.

Chang blinked.

For the inscrutable shifter, it was akin to be knocked off his feet from surprise.

“I beg your pardon?”

“The fucking cats have interfered with two assignments from the assembly in the past six days. I want to know why.” Anger was a hard beat in my chest, a pulse in the back of my mouth.

“Interfered, as in they’re…assisting?”

“Interfered as in Shanelle showed up on the first one right as I was in the middle of talking a young vamp into returning to his House and it got bloody—as in really bloody and now the vampire is going to be probably three or four years in healing and my client wasn’t happy. And the second—I was tracking down an asshole witch who was meant to stand trial for assault. I had contacts in Wolf Haven who had an idea where to look and was about ready to start making plans. That was when I get a message that he had been located by a helpful party who volunteered to escort him in, but he became violent and had to be eliminated.” I paused a moment before adding, “The helpful party declined to give a fucking name.”

Chang coughed.

I glared at him.

“Kit.” He actually looked uncomfortable. “You know Damon has more sense than to interfere with your work. You’d made him sleep in the doghouse—after you made him build said doghouse.”

“Somebody is interfering. If it’s not him, then who the fuck is it?”

Chang passed a hand over his face. “I’ll look into it.”

“Do that.” My phone buzzed, then a series of peels emanated from it—emergency code. All available Assembly personnel report. “I have to take this.”

Chang narrowed his eyes. “There have been a great deal of emergency alerts from the Assembly lately.”

“There’s been a great of shit going on lately in case you haven’t noticed.”

I’m not dead

But my twitter account might be so if you were following me there, please note you’ll need to follow my new account, twitter.com/walkershiloh. I guess I raised a little too much hell and pissed too many people off.

Fundraisers for Australia

I’m sure you’ve all heard about the horrible situation down in Australia. Below are some fundraisers a reader from one of my old yahoo groups shared and I wanted to pass them on.

FYI, I haven’t vetted any of these, but one is from the Cincy Zoo, a pretty stand up zoo, I do believe, and the book is by Skye Warren and friends.

There is a book coming out this week

If you are a Fiona the hippo fan, you can get a t-shirt (ends soon)

If you like beanie babies, there is a koala you can preorder

On RWA, Racism, Bigotry & People getting butthurt

In other words…my comments (among others) are still disappearing.

Like this one.

It’s a good thing the post by @Marie Hall is in the moderator’s queue.

Hopefully, it stays there.

Such a self-pretentious bunch of ​dreck.

While you’re extolling the virtues of ICE, Marie, are you aware that ICE has

erroneously deported US citizens?
erroneously deported US vets??
It’s not an isolated incident, either, FYI. They don’t even follow their own guidelines. It’s like…whoa, he looks Mexican, time to scoop him up!
As a matter of a fact, they don’t follow their own rules like 70% of the time when it comes to people of questionable status. They don’t bother to check if the person is a fricking citizen!
A US Marine with TWO tours of duty and a traumatic brain injury spent close to two years unlawfully incarcerated by ice. He’s been in the US since he was three years old!
Perhaps you should run your passionate bullshit by these men, who served their country- the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA-only to get scooped up by ICE for DEPORTATION. I bet you’d have LOTS to talk about.
I mean, it’s now common knowledge that ICE doesn’t give a damn about military service…if the person is brown, Marie. There’s proof of it. And unbiased miltary people are aware.
And it’s not that people involved in their arrests AREN’T AWARE OF THEIR SERVICE. THEY JUST DON’T GIVE A SHIT, HEROIC SERVICE OR NOT.
ICE has proven to be prejudiced as hell, arresting & detaining people solely because they spoke Spanish.

And it’s not a case of picking up US citizens and h holding them for a couple of hours. Some have been detained for years.


Others? For weeks, so it’s not isolated. Once in ICE custody, rights disappear & that guilty until innocent? Forget it. The rights US CITIZENS know? They don’t extend to undocumented immigrants & screw you if there’s a case of mistaken identity. But…Marie, you’re white, aren’t you? You’re not likely to be picked up and mistaken for an undocumented immigrant. So, yeah…no reason for you to care. Unless you just care about people…oh, and the US Constitution

So, those are the cases I remembered off the top of my head

Good thing military folks are excluded from racism, right?

And then…this one…

“Kris, you’re one of the hostile ones. I don’t need to check your social media to confirm. I know because earlier this year, in this very forum, you said you don’t read f/f romance. You described it as “girl-on-girl sex” and compared it to alcoholism, because you find both distasteful. I remember. I also have screenshots, but there’s no need because you haven’t bothered to delete the posts. 

Tell me, where in those statements am I supposed to feel respected, much less supported, as a queer author writing romances about queer women.“

…BTW, NOTE…I’d advise against flagging/reporting. There’s nothing here that violates TOS, so get over your hurt feelings. I’m known to broadcast posts that get deleted or flagged on my blog. 

 Whoa. Alcoholism, @Kris Tualla Really? I gotta say, as the child of an alcoholic & the mom of a couple of kids who identify as members of the LGTBQ community, I gotta say…you have no clue.

Alcoholism is a disease. Being queer is just part of who you are.

I agree with Olivia. You’re one of the hostile ones. You might couch it in courteous disagreement or try to pass it off as personal tastes but…no.

You’re most definitely part of the problem.

But hey, it’s easy blog fodder anyway. I’m not about to have my opinions silenced.

The Overlords of RWA are at it again

They are moderating like hell & damn. Either it’s a piss poor attempt at damage control or they’re just pissed… or the trolls using the self moderating tools run amok.

My post, which was deleted from one forum thread but not the other.

We need a plan of action. That’s pretty a no-brainer.

I propose the following:

Carol Ritter must step down immediately. Her actions over the past several years helped set the stage for our current dilemma and she can’t be part of the fix. No, it won’t be easy moving forward without an ED, but rebuilding on the shaky ground she’s helped foster won’t be any easier.The board must broaden the scope of the audit to go back a minimum of three years, with a focus on how ethics complaints were received and handled from the very minute of receipt. Under no circumstances is Carol Ritter to be involved in the process. If she is amenable, I nominate LS ** [hidden as I don’t want her to feel put on the spot] to step into this role. A full, interim board must be established. I propose we contact members who resigned in protest & ask if they would be willing to resume their roles until permanent replacements are found. If these members, understandably, don’t want to involve themselves, several past board members have volunteered their services and we should accept.Cancel Nationals. It will be joke regardless. Don’t be the punchline.

I don’t know if thewe steps are the answer or even in the right direction but maybe we can get the subject going, if nothing else.

Somebody has a trigger finger (UPDATED)

So, RWA’s forums have this ‘self moderation’ thing, where if a member feels a post violates rules, they can tag it, it gets hidden until a moderator can review it.

Lately, a lot of my posts have been being flagged. EDITED TO ADD… TODAY, I HAD TWO POSTS REMOVED… Somebody really doesn’t like me.

Now there is a particular troll on the forums I pissed off, a racist twit I pissed off, and any number of NWLs (Nice White Ladies) who probably not very happy with me. Any number of them could be flagging my posts out of sheer pettiness.

And…okay! That’s fine. I’ll just repost them on the forum. And on my blog. Because the posts they keep getting flagged are the ones where I’m calling out bias, and yeah… I’m not going to be silenced on that. Since I made it clear that deleting my posts will just result in having them posted publicly…well, we can’t say they weren’t warned, can we?

So, my latest post, which was in response to a member deciding that after she started a shitstorm, she’d just bow out.

@Forum Admin, please be advised that either *somebody* is moderating my posts without cause, because they are NOT violating any rules–cussing isn’t against the rules, even if some people don’t like it, nor is blunt speech, or I’m just being moderated for no reason.

Regardless, I’ve already made it clear, if my posts don’t get seen here… they get seen on my blog. Facebook. Twitter.  With screenshots and the exact same text, because I’m done with this bullshit.

Also, something the trolls (and i suspect I know who) doing the flagging don’t get… people still get the message.  Flagging it only removes it from the board.  You can’t unsend it from somebody’s inbox once it’s there.​  If I’m right about that troll, BTW, you’re really going to make some people happy if you keep this up.  Instead of staying on a closed loop, it goes out into the wide world.

My original post & the screenshot.

First line unclear-menu bar in the way!

Speaking of which… @Allyson Charles… it’s cheap of you to start shit and dodge out.  Next time don’t start it if you can’t handle the clapback.

“The discussion, sadly, isn’t going anywhere positive that I can see.”

That’s because you’re wearing blinders.  People who aren’t as comfortable speaking up publicly have learned things. Marginalized people have seen your posts and know that plenty of us aren’t going to sit by and let ‘calls for civility’ drown out the demand for respect more and more of US insist our marginalized members are entitled to.

Every time somebody like you, Allyson, speaks up and says shit like you and it gets countered by allies, countered by marginalized people and the allies side with marginalized people over your “CIVILITY TRIUMPS ALL” bullshit, that’s positive.

And it’s been pointed out elsewhere, but you probably missed it.

How civil would you feel if you lived your entire life having to demand respect, if your entire existence was too often judged by the color of your skin or dismissed because you couldn’t see, or ignored because people were uncomfortable with your sexuality? If people felt they had the right to touch your hair because those crazy curls are so different than theirs, or if they cut you off in line at the store because you couldn’t move as fast in your wheelchair, if they laughed or stared at your when you and your SO were walking down the street OR if you were denied the chance to marry your SO, if you could be fired from your job for marrying somebody of the same sex? How civil would you feel if every time you walked into a store, the clerks eyed you sideways because they were certain you were going to steal? If people talked three times louder to you or like you were a toddler because they see you’re disabled and they assume that means you’re stupid? If you were denied a place to live because you and your same sex partner didn’t fit into the landlord’s religious ideals?

If you live a life constantly on the defensive, you’re not going to be very civil, and I can tell you that for a fact, because you respond badly here when you feel on the defensive and you’re the one who started this shitstorm.

EDIT/UPDATE… apparently, somebody really doesn’t like it when I post on the forums, because I had another post deleted/moderated/hidden. So… an update!

Second deleted post is below.

Message 2

Well, @Forum Admin, somebody deleted or flagged my post again, which is particularly shitty since it was calling out some hurtful commentary that Diane Farr made.  What’s even shittier is the fact that it appears Alexis Daria’s response to my post?  THAT LOOKS TO BE DELETED.

I’ve already made it clear in several places that if my posts get deleted/flagged/hidden, especially those where I’m speaking out to support marginalized members, I will post my responses and screenshots to my blog, where they get cross-posted to twitter and FB.  So…whoever flagged/deleted this one, you should reach out to @Diane Farr. I’m sure she appreciates it.

Original post below the screenshot (screenshot’s text is merely the text you’ll find below)

Oh.  Oh. Oh, Diane.

You and me are probably not going to be friends.  Understand now, this isn’t personal or an attack on you, although it might feel that way.  But, honey… you are short-sighted, misguided and all sorts of wrong.

“It is my sincere hope that once this sturm und drang subsides, he will be able to lead once again.”

The problem is that HE NEVER LED IN THE FIRST PLACE.  LEADERSHIP IS DOING WHAT IS RIGHT FOR THE GROUP YOU ARE LEADING, NOT DIGGING YOUR HEELS IN OUT OF STUBBORNNESS.

Also…let’s not forget…

he lied about his qualifications  (THAT LIKELY COUNTS AS FRAUD.  WE ARE A LEGAL ENTITY)he lied to & about board members, some of those lies leading to one board member deciding not to run**he has lied about people he knows which has led to no small amount of embarassment for the organizationhe played fast and loose with the P&P, along with Carol Ritter, to establish this secret ethics committee that led to the censure of Courtney Milan that led to the fucking MESS we are inhe manipulated the outcome of the report from said unlawfully formed ethics committee, providing information to the then board that wasn’t entirely on the up and up–nobody has said it outright, but the bottom line is, a board as diverse as we had would not have acted to censure a woman of color for speaking out against RACISM. So Damon and Carol damn well manipulated shit to get the outcome they wanted.  And if I’m wrong, they are welcome to try and sue me for libel, but everybody knows they won’t do shit, because that is what happened.when confronated about his lack of qualifications for president, he attempted to offer a book that cannot be found.  The title STUD PLANET isn’t on goodreads, you can’t find Amazon reviews, there are no cached images on the internet archive.  It DOESN’T EXIST.  So not only did he lie about his qualifications to start, he attempted to LIE AGAIN

So.  All of that said… you want a man who commited fraud, who lied, who manipulated events to force a woman of color out of our organization to lead? Am I understanding you correctly?

It may be time to retire the RITAs. They have become increasingly weird and twisted, trying to conform to the wishes of our diverse membership and ending up pleasing no one. 

Oh. My. Goodness. CONFORM TO THE WISHES OF OUR DIVERSE MEMBERSHIP.  ARE YOU SHITTING ME?


ALL OUR MARGINALIZED MEMBERS WANT IS THE CHANCE TO BE JUDGED FAIRLY ON THEIR OWN FUCKING MERITS, DIANE!  What’s weird and twisted about wanting your book to judged fairly, based solely on the book?

Have you even talked to readers lately?  READERS JUST WANT GOOD BOOKS! Hell, NORA ROBERTS COMMENTED ON HOW PEOPLE CAN ACCEPT A VAMPIRE AND A HUMAN GETTING IT ON BUT NOT A SAME SEX COUPLE!!!!

Are you more inclined to accept a fricking werewolf and an ingenue than a black woman and a white man?

HOW IS THIS CONFORMING?

And I have to stop now before my blood pressure goes through the roof and I end up having a stroke and have to be put in the bed next to my grandmother.​​​

RWA…THEY DON’T LEARN

Someone posited the question on the forum, why is Damon Suede doing this?

I said because he’s a power hungry asshole & some are accepting it because they like the status quo.

My response was deleted.

So.

I’m posting again.

I want to know why my opinion on this was deleted.

I’ve got every right to call Damon Suede a power hungry asshole, AND state that some of the people involved like the status quo.

I’m a member in goid standing & I’ve got every right to call an ass an ass.

Guess I’m posting this to my blog.

My response as to why Damon Suede did this? IMO?

To the Board-Do Your Job

Avon & Harlequin have pulled out as sponsors. 

I bet more will follow. 

50+ agents have publicly stated they’ll have nothing to do with nationals or other events. 

The RITAs (rightly) are in the tank this year & the whole conference may well follow, because if more sponsors pull out…well, that means no signings, no parties, etc.

The signings & events for librarians & bloggers are a major draw and THAT will go down the tank.

Pub parties are a big draw for pubbed authors, and THAT is disappearing.

So. Again…do y’all really think this is going to blow over?

It’s time for you, the board members,  to step up.

YOU, RIGHT NOW, HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO VOTE DAMON SUEDE OUT.

By all rights, it appears he doesn’t meet the qualifications TO BE OUR PRESIDENT, HAVING ONLY FOUR PUBBED NOVELS. 

He has acted RECKLESSLY, failed to respond to member concerns & been shown to have a history of LYING ABOUT HIS RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER INDUSTRY PEOPLE AND RWA MEMBERS TO FURTHER HIS OWN AGENDA.

These actions & lack of publishing qualifications give you EVERY right to vote him out & correct the course.

Note, it WILL BE CORRECTED, but what side will you take & how much worse will RWA continue to look to outside eyes?

We will not get agents back at our conference WITHOUT ACTION.

WE  WILL NOT GET PUBLISHERS BACK WITHOUT IT.

Workshop proposals are being withdrawn, so there’s ANOTHER draw that’s going, going…gone!

This will NOT blow over. Do the right thing for RWA, THE ONE THING THAT WILL ALLOW US TO START WINNING BACK TRUST FROM THE INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS WHO HAVE PULLED BACK BECAUSE OF YOUR CLEAR LACK OF ACTION. VOTE THE PRESIDENT OUT, AND the executive director.

That time I contacted the Texas AG about RWA

FYI, that time was today.

Below is my letter. FYI, I’m fed up. I am done. Questions and emails mostly go ignored by the board. Yes, I get it, I’m one of thousands emailing them, but we don’t need a personal response. We need a professional one that addresses their serious screw-ups here.

When you do hear back you have people talking to you in condescending, how dare you tone… oh, honey, you’ve got no idea how much I’ll dare.

There are a couple of members, yes, who are working to keep in touch with us and make sure we know we’re being heard, but the people who caused the problems, namely Damon The Ass Suede? Nope.

But apparently he’s cool with calling people up and telling them them he plans to serve out his term despite

the fact that more than thirty chapters are now calling him to step downnumerous agencies have publicly stated they will not attend RWA events until there is a change in leadershipdespite the fact that over 1000 members are demanding his resignation

Damon, you’re an ass. I wonder how many chapter sessions you’ll be invited to after this, what with you fiddling while Rome burns, you cretin.

There are also rumors that RWA STAFF!!!!! hired a crisis management team and are hoping this will all blow over in a few months.

Like hell.

Oh, and check out this white-savior piece of shit cover on the latest RWR, RWA’s montly publication.

And to head off questions I’m too pissed to address, if there is somebody who doesn’t see the problem with this image… google the “white savior complex”.

Now, my letter.

To the staff, board and president:

So, like many of us have probably been doing, I’ve been digging into the legalities of nonprofits, etc. In Texas, nonprofits are investigated by the state attorney general.

I contacted his office via the online form.

Below is the letter I just sent to Carol, Damon & Co.

HelloI want to add my voice to the numerous other members calling to demand information on the certification process behind Damon Suede being allowed to 1) Run for president elect as it appears he has only four novel-length works, making him ineligible to run since the requirement is five published works of romance.2) Who approved his name on the ballot3) Any other information that would clear this mess up.Additionally, I’ve contacted the Texas State Attorney General ‘s office. They are in charge of investigating nonprofits within the state, including possible ethics violations.Due to:

Numerous complaints from our minority members that complaints from everything regarding overt racism & homophobia to ablism to not making our conference spaces accessible to all members, including those who require the assistance of wheelchairs and/or other mobility devices. the utter lack of communication coming from the offices of RWA and the president, and a lack of reassurance from the staff and ED that the recall petitions will be fairly and justly handled,   reports that members of staff might have been involved in encouraging an RWA member to file one of the initial complaints that led to thisreports that RWA funds are being used to hire a crisis management team by the staff in the hopes this will all blow overdue to questionable changes made to the P&P regarding the RITA contestdue to questionable changes made to the P&P that allowed the ED and then Pres-Elect to get involved in an ethics committee formation when they had no business due to the questionable formation of a secret ethics committeeand due to the overall lack of explanation, the lack of transparency when we were promised otherwise, your contemptuous responses and your utter arrogance in dealing with the very members who make it possible for you to have your jobs

I contacted the state attorney general’s office today via their online form, providing them with my contact info and requesting how to take action regarding my concerns surrounding certain members in RWA’s leadership, namely the executive director, former director now controller and president–Alison Kelly, Carol Ritter and Damon Suede.Screenshots provided below. The text reads as follows:

​There have been a few members of the board, namely via the RWA forums, who have attempted to at least make us aware they know we have concerns and that is appreciated.However, the complete silence coming from the president who bears much responsibility in this mess, as well as the executive director who must have been involved on some level, is complete and utter bullshit and I’m fed up and done waiting for answers.​–

Text of the screen shot reads

“”I’d like to know the proper process for filing a complaint regarding a TX non-profit. I’m a member of the organization and there are serious concerns regarding actions of late. Questions by the membership to the board are going unanswered. Additionally, it would appear that by-laws regarding elected officials were ignored by ED, resulting in the election of somebody unqualified for his position.””

If anybody else wants to contact, the form is at https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/contact-us-online-form

Yes, I realize this could be a huge thing, but if we don’t do something, there might not BE much of an RWA left worth fighting for by the time the wannabe despots are done.​
