Tis the season for planning for the new year! I love this time of the year because I'm a total planning nerd - I love seeing how other people plan and organize their lives and businesses for the next year. I'm obsessed with new year planning and goal setting videos on YouTube. I also just… Continue reading Planners for 2023

SLAE: Q & A
Hello hello! Sometimes Love Ain't Enough is almost a month old, and I wanted to celebrate by answering some questions about the book and my process writing it. Have you ever considered writing under a pseudonym, and why or why not? I thought this question was a good one to answer, because I did write SLAE… Continue reading SLAE: Q & A

Without any additional fanfare...dun dun dun...here it is: If this was love, love was some bullshit. In the era of blue eyeshadow, body glitter, and Axe, seventeen-year-old Sophia Salvatore starts her… Continue reading Cover Reveal: The Girls of Fall

Think You Couldn’t Possibly Lose Your Amazon Publishing Account? Think Again.
This is some scary stuff, but very important for indie authors to be aware of. While most of my sales come from Amazon, I chose not to enroll in KU, mainly because I didn’t want to put all my eggs in one basket!
There’s this indie author I know a little bit from the Kboards.com forum. Her name is Pauline Creeden, and she’s an ordinary midlister, like so many of us. I remember PMing her some time ago and gushing about how particularly beautiful one of her book covers is — the one for Chronicles of Steele: Raven.
Here, I’ll include an image. Gorgeous, eh?
Anyway, today I tuned in to Kboards and noticed that Pauline had started a thread. It contained what’s surely the worst news possible for an indie author: Amazon had closed her publishing account. All her ebooks had been taken off sale. Permanently. Here’s the email she got from Amazon:

Also -- and this is very exciting -- includes a… Continue reading Cover Reveal: Communion of the Damned
A Very Merry Bookiversary!
*peaks out from under rock* Oh, hai. Well, I’m not dead! Just been busy working, writing, worry about working, worrying about writing, struggling to make ends meet, making big life decisions – you know, all that adult-related nonsense we have to put up with. So I just stopped by to check in with y’all and… Continue reading A Very Merry Bookiversary!
#bookpartytime
This past Wednesday, we (me and my madre) threw a little shindig to celebrate the release of Stones. We danced, we kissed, we schmoozed, we carried on, we went home happy! Just kidding...unfortunately there was no dancing or kissing, but there was schmoozing and eating. And I went home pretty happy because my friends brought… Continue reading #bookpartytime
