Firebird 5 (the title of which was decided on Friday) is now in the hands of the beta readers and my editor. It’s left me a bit at loose ends as I decide what I should do next. The first couple weeks after a book is finished and no longer on my plate is usually…
For those of you who didn’t see the Facebook post last week, I finished the second draft of Firebird 5 last Wednesday. Just in time for the Husband and I to fly to St. Lucia the next day for a vacation we’d been planning since February. Having the draft done in time was one of…
On Friday afternoon I discovered the cats had fleas. That morning I’d gotten up and noticed black dirt like stuff where Loki had been sleeping at the end of the bed. I thought it was strange and made a mental note to check her over later to see if she’d gotten into anything. It wasn’t…
The last two weeks have been a whirlwind. I am utterly and totally exhausted. We went from Dragon Con directly to Florida for vacation. I still haven’t decided if that was a good way to do things or not. On one hand, vacation. Yay. On the other, I feel so behind and am trying not…
We’re getting close to Dragon Con so it’s probably about time that I post the schedule. I’ll be in booth 1320-1322 with Tairen’s Lair and Author’s Lair. Since several author’s are sharing the booth we’re taking turns in it. Below is when I will be present. Friday: 12-2:30 PM and 4:30-7 PM Saturday: 12-1 PM,…
Dragon Con is fast approaching, and I am quickly running out of time for everything. Here is the current plan as I understand it. This is subject to change and I will be announcing further details as we get closer so if you’re attending please make sure to check here or the Facebook page. I’m…
I did a thing a few weeks back. I commissioned artwork for the Firebird Series. Part of it was because I wanted to create giveaways for Dragon Con later this year. A conversation I saw on the book community made me realize that the covers for the Firebird Series aren’t an accurate representation of Kira…
When I was completing my final read through of Nightfall’s Prophet, I pulled out all these tiny excerpts to share with you. The original plan was to do the photos with powerful quotes like I’ve done in the past. Well, that didn’t happen because I ran out of time. I don’t know if it’s because…
What a week. I’ve completed the final readthrough for Nightfall’s Prophet. The manuscript has been formatted and a copy uploaded to Amazon. It’s also available for those in the ARC group. Before anyone asks, yes, there will be an audio version. And a print one. Both are in production. No ETA on when they will…
Friday did not go as planned. It started well enough. I got up, attended my Orange Theory workout class before returning and getting cleaned up. From there, I packed up my computer, headed to the coffee shop and dug 1200 words out of my brain. It was a pretty good pre lunch effort. I drove…
