State of the Tam - 3rd July
Look! I did a video *points up*
ANYHOO…sorry about dropping the ball on the newsletter this last month. It was just a WHOLE year by the time I got to May and things had gotten on top of me. I had to take a break and get my ducks all back in a row.
So they are lined up and I am getting back on schedule.
Which leads me to!
Hex Sells, book two in the Babylon Boy series, is out on July 26th and available for pre-order now!
Jonah Carrow just wants a quiet, hex-free life. It’s harder than he’d thought.
Despite his best efforts, though, magic trouble just keeps finding him. If it’s not his dead relatives trying to turn breakfast into a ouija board, it’s a crow with bad tidings at his door.
Jonah doesn’t know what’s worse, that warlock biker Shiloh has decided to call in his marker…or that he only did it to get him to pass on a message. It turns out that Luke, Jonah’s not-exactly boyfriend, hasn’t been taking the Crossroad Crows calls. …
And when things go wrong, despite not being in the first draft to be called up, Jonah gets roped in to find answers. Now he’s knee-deep in secrets, curses, and the sort of temptation in lean, blond Shiloh that is definitely not going to help Jonah stay on the straight and mundane.
On top of all that? He’s getting sick. Without a hex to help put a thumb on the scales, Jonah really can’t catch a break.
As mentioned in the video, I do have a sale on some of my old paperbacks (I need to order in stock for the cons next year of all my snazzy new covers!) You’ll get a signed paperback, some swag (mostly bookmarks, cards, and a few stickers, I need to reload on my swag), and an extraordinarily well-taped package that smells lightly of dog (probably some dog hair too).
A quick questionnaire!
1: Do you like the video? Does seeing my bizarrely unruly hair (I got it cut a week ago!) appeal? Is my accent completely unintelligible? I can stop those on a dime. :D
2: Does weekly work for you guys? I’ve noticed that a lot of people do a monthly newsletter, so maybe y’all would rather LESS of me :D

I am in ABSOLUTE AWE over this. It is so beautiful I think I could make one myself. I couldn’t, but the belief is still there :D
@thevirginiamermaidPart 3: the grand finale.. making 🦭💀 the seal head 💀🦭 This was by far the most challenging part of this project and all of my loved ones who were cheering me on were…cautiously optimistic about this part of the project. I’ve never worked with horsehair trim (sewn into the edge of my hood for structure), never made a hood, never applied fur to a head form, never glued whiskers, never made taxidermy eyes etc. so I watched a lot of taxidermy and mask making videos online and am likely on a couple of government watch lists as seals are highly protected. It was all worth for the love of folklore and art 🪡🎨🏴🦭 Guest appearances by @Mermaid Hales @merman christian @Black Lagoon Siren @✨🌊 Aurora 🌊✨ @alliedesantis , and others who I may not know here on IG but certainly know in person 🙈 Narwhal ball hosted by @syrensymposium @Tulip Color #selkie #selkiewoman #sealmaiden #sealwoman #scottishfolklore #selkietattoo #thevirginiamermaid #tulipcolorcrafts #selkiecostume #diycostume #syrensymposium #narwhalball #mermaidconvention [image error]Tiktok failed to load.Enable 3rd party cookies or use another browser
