Hi, friends! I know I've been off for a while. I'm still working full time at my adult job. I took and passed (phew!) a board exam in August for it, but it required me to take a six week hiatus from writing. When I came back from my hiatus I banged out the rest of the third draft of The Reaper's Curse and am currently 2/3rds of the way through revisions.
The Traveler's Gift is completed (though the urge to go back and make more changes is there and since that would require another round of professional edits, I'm resisting the urge). I have a friend that is going to take a crack at formatting and cover design, which I'm super excited about!
There will be a third book of Louis and Slater’s story, but the details of that novel are still in progress. I don't plan on trying to sort it out until this draft of The Reaper's Curse is done with revisions.
I've also been writing a story about queer werewolves with a friend. We have the intentions of trying to publish it, but haven't discussed it in-depth at this time. We're just having fun with it.
Now, onto my announcement:
I am looking for beta readers for The Reaper's Curse!!!
Genre: Dcience fiction, fantasy, LGBTQ+
Words: 86k(ish. I'm still revising, this is subject to change)
Warnings: Violence, death, mentions of suicide, anxiety, depression, drug abuse, smoking, alcohol, gore, blood.
After a failed murder attempt turns into near-death experience, Slater O’Brien has had enough of Rick O’Shea. With Louis Mahoney at his side, Slater is determined to dismantle Rick’s empire brick-by-brick. He’s spent years biding his time, gathering information about the mobster, and it’s finally time to make his move.
The problem? After being poisoned by Quench, his ability to blow things up with his mind is unreliable. Without his biggest weapon and its apathetic side-effects, Slater is left to deal not only with the monsters spawned from money and power, but also the inner-demons he’d been avoiding for years.
Slater knows secrets are dangerous, but he also knows that he and Louis can’t do it on their own. His powers gave him his reputation as The Reaper, without them, the chance of making allies is low. If word were to get out, he would not only make him a target for O’Shea and his men, but for every other criminal looking to collect the bounty on his head.
Hellbent on revenge and desperate for allies, Slater and Louis make friends with college students, members of an underground fighting ring, and O’Shea’s biggest rival, Yerik Korzhakov.

Also, writer friends, I miss you! What have you been working on? I can't wait to hear/see what you've been up to!
