Time to get writing! This summer was long, hot and fun—but writing time fell to the bottom of my priority list. The hubs opened up a new veterinary practice, my oldest son moved out of state for college, and my youngest son starts middle school tomorrow, so now it’s time for me to get back […]

As strong as possible. Red Hour is in the hands of three beta readers and I’m so excited! I reread it before I sent it off to add some specific questions at the end, and was glad to see that I still really love this story. I’m looking forward to the improvements I can make […]

Time to celebrate by editing it. Despite the curveballs this fall threw at my family, I am so happy to have completed a major 2024 writing goal. Red Hour is finally fully drafted. This story surprised me. Sam’s voice came through strongly, the world was grittier and the violence was a little rougher than my […]

And ready to wait. I’m querying agents for Seeds of Power and it’s exciting to be finally putting myself out there! I know it takes a long time to hear back (if at all) but I am ready to wait. I don’t need to see my book published right now and I believe a literary […]

I’m kind of on track! What I’ve done during the first three months of the year: BONDS OF MAGIC series: I did my last round of edits on SEEDS OF POWER! I’m consistently submitting LAND OF MONSTERS (the fully drafted sequel to SoP) to my writing group. I’m late but actively working on my agent […]
