Big Lilac News, and a new series!

So, remember how the last few days I've been teasing you guys about some new Lilac news? Well, I'm finally ready to share!

THERE'S A FOURTH LILAC STORY COMING OUT!


It’s been one year since Lilac Xia Jones defeated the goddess Allora and reclaimed the Sapphire Blade. And one year since the ghost of her great grandmother vanished without a trace.

The now seventeen year-old Lilac is beginning to wonder. About why the paranormal has always been drawn to the women of her family... About what could have made a spirit as strong as Jingfei vanish without a trace...

As Lilac attempts to distance herself from her increasingly complicated personal life by searching for Jingfei’s spirit, she begins to realize that she’s never been as safe in the world of the supernatural as she thought she was, and that a dark entity may be watching her every move. And now, unless Lilac can help it, the darkness might begin to claim the ones she loves, too.

Set in the year between the end of The Lilac Jones Adventures and the beginning of the spin-off series, A Darkness So Divine, How I Broke Us follows Lilac’s transition from the light-hearted sixteen year-old she was and into the hardened and haunted young woman we meet in The Diamond Society.

How I Broke us is set a year after the end of Curse of the Sword, and a year before the start of The Diamond Society...which is the first book in the spin-off series, A Darkness So Divine.

How I Broke us is the story that bridges the gap between the two series. Going forward, the Lilac stories will only be available in the Omnibus collection - they won't be published individually - because it's easier for me and for the readers to have them all in one place, easily accessible. And, what's more, they're going to be free! The omnibus is available on Wattpad right now, here:

So, the Lilac stories are basically a prequel to the A Darkness so Divine series, which you can learn more about by reading the bonus material in the omnibus, which you'll also find on the wattpad version. So in short, click the above link to read the entire series, free, along with getting more info about it's creation and the upcoming novella trilogy starring Lilac!

How Long It Took To Write Each Book + Wordcounts! (How Do You Write So Fast?)

Image
So today I thought it would be interesting to write about the books I've written and how long the process took for each one. Not all of these are published, and I'm only counting novellas, collections, and novels - not individual short stories. I have a fairly quick writing process; I take my initial spark or idea and come up with a few loose scenes, and usually the ending of the book. Then I create a character sheet with every character, a brief description of their looks and personality, and an outline for the book. Drafting itself takes around two or three days for a novella, and around fifteen to thirty days for a full-length novel. Editing can take days or months, depending on the manuscript. I attribute my fast writing to my detailed outlining strategies, which I developed after reading about how authors like Amanda Hocking and Rachel Aaron outline, and try to emulate the attitudes of writers like Jennifer L. Armentrout, who write for 6 to 8 hours a day when working o...

RETURN OF THE BLOG ZOMBIES

Obviously I've blogged more in the past couple days than I have in a long time, and that's going to keep happening, because I'm in a much more convenient position to write blog posts now. So, here's some stuff you can except to see me talking about in the next few weeks and months: 1) Spider-Man. This has happened and will happen again. 2) Video games in general. I've got Fallout 4 and inFamous First Light coming in the mail, and inFamous Second Son just arrived today. 3) The short stories I'm working on! 4) Pop music. Always pop music. Although right now I'm weirdly getting back into indie rock. 5) Dropping Like Flies. This is my next new full-length book and it's about a cannibal. Nuff said.

A Duke Won't Do by Jessie Clever (Book Review)

Image
"Let me make one thing perfectly clear," he growled right before his mouth came down on hers. The perfect cozy, wholesome romance read for all the Bridgerton vibes. I was actually charmed by Logan and Gwen. How sensible and not annoying they are, like most romance protagonists. How quickly I became invested in their entire relationship. "Welcome to Scarcroft Manor." Gwen and Logan are both damaged goods: she's got smallpox scars and self-esteem issues, he's terrified of letting anybody back in after his first wife was extremely emotionally abusive... She had spent a lifetime not being touched and now he had touched everything. But he needs help raising his child and running his household, and Gwen is determined to make the best of the situation, because she's always wanted to be a mother, and can't help falling for his daughter Felicity instantly. As Gwen takes control of the estate and takes stock of what needs doing, she's forced to push at all...
