In case it isn’t obvious, I’ve been out of the office for the holidays, so if I’m quiet on here, this is why. They’ve been holding out on me with these vacation properties. Apparently they each have one on this side of the bridge.

Swipe for evidence of them fleeing-slash-leading me to their respective castles. This is a picture of my kids running away from me after I tried to get them to smile for a picture. Big hugs, happy reading, and happy new year! Buuuuut, I’m still gonna try to be more present online! Because besides my own updates, I have a million book recs I want to gush about, and I want to share more teasers and host more giveaways and have live chats with you all, so I hope you’ll hang out with me and maybe hold my hand if I’m a little rusty at this. Oh, and my posts are usually speckled with errors. I’m terrible at all of it-I suck at taking pictures, I get even more squeamish about selfies, and I always panic at the last minute because I feel like I have nothing worth sharing. Last year I just couldn’t swing social media, but this is a new year and I’m excited to change that. Oh, and I’m going to really, truly try to be on here more.

I don’t know if I’ll be doing any signings around Bewitched’s release, but I will definitely try to set a couple up in California.

As far as author events go, I will be attending Book Bonanza in June. I’ve seen some of the artwork already and it is so stunning. What else is going on? Well, I have some plans with a couple different book boxes, one of which is my Fallen World series. It will release before book two in the series, which is set to come out spring of 2024. I’m tentatively planning on that novella to be released fall/winter of this year, though that is a guestimate. I’m now working on the second book in my Bewitched series, along with the novella that will come between books one and two. But I am excited to be able to release the e-book, print book, and the audiobook all on the same day, so hurrah to that! And Bewitched will be in Kindle Unlimited, for those of you who are members. To be honest, these are totally new waters I’m navigating-to have a traditional publisher handle the print books. This book is already complete-at the moment I believe copies of it are getting printed for its spring release. It feels like ages since I’ve sat down at my desk, but I’m finally back! And, as promised, here’s a bit about what’s going on this year: I’ll be releasing Bewitched, the first book in a new paranormal romance series, on April 18, 2023.
