I had a great time setting up at Hello Again Books yesterday and managed to connect with some folks despite the heat advisory. I got a little time to chat with one of the owners about the Book Fest they sponsored back in April, and also about having a second go setting up in theirContinue reading “Many Thanks and a Look Ahead”

Cue the Jitters and Schedule the Cover Reveal
Well, my cover files for The Stolen landed in my inbox on Monday. It’s more gorgeous than I could possibly have hoped for. Not that The Illustrated Author Cover Designs ever disappoints. She has surely outdone herself with this one. Of course, I immediately wanted to share it with the world. But … I’m supposedContinue reading “Cue the Jitters and Schedule the Cover Reveal”
The Stolen Excerpt
Happiest of Wednesdays to you, friends! I’m sliding in today with an excerpt of my approaching release of The Stolen, the sequel to The Nameless in my Fae-Cursed Series. As the series name suggests, the story follows two brothers who are cursed by a Fae. I will admit that I’m not well-read or up-to-date onContinue reading “The Stolen Excerpt”
Excitement is Stirring
Happy Thursday, my friends! At least I hope it is. For me, it is. Guess who ordered a proof copy of an upcoming sequel release this morning? This girl. That’s right, my friends. I received my edits back for said sequel ahead of projected schedule, so I took some time out of editing (I didContinue reading “Excitement is Stirring”
On Raining and Pouring
I’m back, my friends, and with less … force than my last post. As the title suggests, it hasn’t just been raining, it has been pouring. Both literally and figuratively. Literally because yesterday we went from weather so dry my yard is crunchy to a true all-day rainy day. While we definitely needed it, thatContinue reading “On Raining and Pouring”
Trigger Warning
This is a rant. Buckle up. So yesterday I got a random follow on Instagram. There was a mutual so I figured why not play the social media game and I followed back. Last night, I got a message. “You are just such an attractive woman.” Someone come get your brother, for he is lost.Continue reading “Trigger Warning”
Thursday Thoughts
Happy Beltane, everyone! We’ve made another trip around the Maypole, for better or worse. Despite the overwhelming way things seem contrary, I think it’s better for me. How am I celebrating? I just raised the prices on all my ebooks. Why would I do that, one might ask. Well, here’s a very honest answer toContinue reading “Thursday Thoughts”
As the Dust Settles
The Black Feather Press crew has another event down and my head is still spinning a little. Not in a bad way. The Merritt Square Mall Con was certainly an experience. I’m extremely grateful for the attention we received and the connections we made. Sales weren’t as good as for the book fest but IContinue reading “As the Dust Settles”
When the Nerves Hit All at Once
I really thought I wasn’t going to get nervous about my second in-person book event. Wrong. So wrong. All the nerves hit me yesterday and persist today. I’m attempting to convert it into kinetic energy and make absolutely sure the Black Feather Press team is ready for the Merritt Square Mall Con tomorrow. I haveContinue reading “When the Nerves Hit All at Once”
Success and Gratitude
I woke up today still riding an almost indescribable high from my first in-person book event yesterday. I went into it not knowing what to expect and came out of it absolutely floored at the great response patrons had to my table. I made back the book fest registration fee in the first half-hour. EvenContinue reading “Success and Gratitude”
