Super hard to believe but a year ago, Ivy and Gabe’s story was released. And you know, I’m not sure you are supposed to have favourites, and this is funny considering the roller coaster I went through while writing this book, but I think that maybe, just maybe, Flame Again is my favourite book. I like that Ivy is independent and speaks her mind. That out there, she is intent on climbing the…

He wants to make her a gingerbread princess.

Hello everyone! I am here with too little coffee, way too little sleep and wind-burned cheeks from being at the ice rink yesterday. Not that I skated, I watched, and you know, I think I got the colder side of that deal. Super excited to be finalizing the outline for Book Five today, in the blocked-off-time-for-this-reason I made, and beta feedback is coming in on Flame True. I can’t wait to share…

Ah! Chasing Words. Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit! Happy November!

This week, I felt like I was in some kind of time warp with the weather! 20C in November? Yeah, I’ll take that. Last year my cubs were trick-or-treating in an ice storm. This year, they did it in sweaters. And maybe that’s why I’ve felt a little off, a little split-focused, chasing the words, getting the edits done on Flame True, to realize that I need to adjust to make something work for Book…

I went down a rabbit hole trying to answer the question, “how does your disability affect your writing?” First off, which one? *grins.* It’s almost an impossible question to ask because there is no separation between me and my disability. It’s just there; it makes certain things “harder” than my peers or for me to obtain society’s standards, but it’s not an easy thing to break down. However, for…

So this week, my household’s usual routine is thrown in the mixer as half of the members are away. I feel utterly exhausted at the moment and by the day, but it was fun and sound and a lot more quieter than I am used to. And somehow, I managed to get 15k down, which is fine but I feel like I have been on this chapter forever. Gardenia is about to tell Dax her past; it’s not the only secret she’s…

I’m still buzzing from the release of Flame Again. If you bought it, thank you so much! It means so much to me that readers are reading my stories. This morning, pre-coffee, I logged into ‘Zon and went to my KDP dashboard and got the message, “You have no books published.” What? Excuse me, mighty river, I just had a book out less than twenty-four hours ago! Where are my books? A few thousand deep…

Release Day for Flame Again!

I am so thrilled Flame Again is out in the world! I am excited to share Gabe & Ivy’s story and hope readers fall in love with them, as I did… eventually. Though this book was a  trial to write in the end, I am delighted with how it came out. Thanks so much to all my readers, ARC Readers, betas and cheerleaders. This indie author thing is a grind at times and all of the support keeps me going. The…

Not Beating the Heat

If you’re in a heatwave, especially in a place that doesn’t usually have high temps, I’m sorry. It’s awful. I hope you’re staying cool and getting through it and I wish I could send coll breezes through the internet. We have had a few days of high temps here 30C but we’re more prepared for it-ish and usually, the temps drop here at night. What makes it a heatwave here is that those temps didn’t…
