  • End of an Era…


    Wasteland RT Quote Cover

    Okay, not officially an era, but for me, it kind of is.

    Wasteland, the first book in my Wasteland Trilogy, with Crescent Moon Press, was the first book I ever published.

    There were a lot of firsts involved with Wasteland….

    My first experience with a publisher.

    My first book signing event. (My hand was shaking so bad, I’m not sure my name was legible.)

    My first experience with marketing.

    My first experience with good & bad reviews.

    I think you get the picture.

    It opened doors for me that led to me publishing TWELVE books between 2011 and September 2014. That was a lot of hard work–but rewarding work. I’ve met so many people, learned so much, and I am forever grateful!

    Now what’s this got to do with the title “end of an era?”

    Top Pick Violet MidnightWell…as of March 31st, 11:59pm, Crescent Moon Press is releasing all their authors. Every single one of them.

    What that means…All seven of my books published with them: Wasteland, Awaited, Tainted, Prelude to Darkness, Violet Midnight, Violet Dawn & Violet Storm will be out of print and pulled from all e-book retailers.

    They are now mine again to do with what I please. I could republish them on my own or just hold onto them for a while….Right now, I’m not sure what I will do, and that’s okay. I don’t need to.

     

    My other books

    Bound by Hades trilogy from Entangled Embrace and my self-pub trilogy, Touch of Frost, are still out there in print and ebook form wherever books are sold, so I’ll have fun with those for a while.

    I am working on a few projects (because the voices never shut up in my head…) You might have seen pictures of Alastair on my Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter feeds. He just might be involved withthese projects….

    So, stay tuned.

    And thanks for taking the journey with me and my Wasteland and Violet Night Trilogies! Your support of me and my books is so appreciated.

    I’ll see you all soon at Author Palooza on April 18th down at Dog-Eared Pages Bookstore in Phoenix, AZ and then at the Romantic Times Booklovers Convention in Dallas May 12-17th!

    Happy reading, my friends!

  • #TFOB2015 was awesome


    I had a blast hanging out at TFOB 2015. I got to meet so many fun people.

    I know I’m forgetting some names, but I got to meet Jennifer (a native to Arizona!!), Claire, Alice, Nancy (She’s studying psychology!! My kind of girl), Emily, Hermione, Carrie, Jennifer, Luna, Caitlin, Andria, Stephanie, Sarah, Jordan, Hermione, Olivia, Kryssie, Zuli, Gracie, and Lucy!!

    Getting to meet new people who love to read, signing their books, taking pictures with them….Best part of this author gig, for sure!!!

    Next adventure… RT Booklover’s Convention in May! Hope to see you there!!

  • Writing Retreat…


    I’ve started a new project (and yep, my little friend, Alastair, that you’ve been seeing all over Instagram might make an appearance) so I’ve jetted off to beautiful Sedona AZ for some power writing!!

    How can I not be inspired by these beautiful sites:

     

    Hope you’re having a great day wherever you may be. 🙂

  • Happy Frosty Friday Eve!


    Our release week fun is almost to an end. I’m sad because I’m having a BLAST with you guys. I know I’ve been through release week with Lynn before, since these books were released on Amazon over the last year, but now that they are everywhere (Nook, Kobo, iTunes, etc) and in print it just seems that much more surreal.

    Did you guys enter my little sleeper giveaway yesterday to get a print proof copy of Absolute Zero? If not, check that out, because the book in print…wow, that was just fun to see.

    And touch.

    Okay, if I’m honest, to smell, too. Yeah, I’m a book sniffer.

    For today’s post, I thought I’d share a little bit of NATE. We meet him in Book 2 and in book 3 we really get to know him. He’s got an amazing story and truly is an amazing guy.

    So here is a glimpse into Nate’s awesomeness:

    As long as I have breathwith retailers

    Told you!!

    Happy FRIDAY EVE, my friends. See you tomorrow!

  • Absolute Zero


    Absolute Zero with might do something stupid Final

    I thought I’d do something a little different today. Lynn mentioned she had a few extra print proofs, so I figured I’d give one away today! Since the books are about me, I get to do that, right?

    So…I snagged the print proof of ABSOLUTE ZERO!

    To enter, just leave a comment on this post telling me what is your favorite hot drink to warm you up when it is close to Absolute Zero outside. **ha**

    I know for me, it’s a steaming hot cup of coffee and a great big chocolate chip cookie.

    Have fun, and I’ll see you tomorrow!
