Wordly Warfare

I'm stuck in editing hell again. I keep coming back here despite my best intentions to never write again, because it drives me up a tree, even when I feel like I'm having fun. Right now I'm polishing up the first chapters of Break This Gilded Cage (the first installment in my new vampire serial, I Am Your Fate) before I write the last three.

In non-writing related news, I've honestly just been watching zombie shows on Netflix and napping. I'm so exciting, huh?

I spent my Halloween night drinking spiked coffee and listening to Spotify, so nothing too special is happening. I think I may put out a new chapter of Fascination on Wattpad tonight, though. So, slowly, the ball is moving forward on a few different projects. I just put Shadows of Ourselves on Pronoun for free, so once it's live maybe Amazon will finally price match?

It's been a hell of a time trying to get them to do that--Shadows is on InstaFreebie and Wattpad, but Amazon doesn't really care about that. RoAnna Sylver said they finally price matched her book once she put it up on Pronoun though, so maybe it will work for me too. I hope so. Shadows needs the love, and I think if it goes permafree on Amazon it will start to get the hype it deserves.

I'll probably make Break This Gilded Cage free, too. Every other installment of the serial will be 99 cents, since each one is only 15 to 20 chapters.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. I'll have a better, less pointless blog post tomorrow or maybe even later tonight. Until then, here's some good music.

I Haven't Forgotten

I haven't forgotten about this blog. I mean, how could I? I have a long history of writing embarrassing, mortifying personal details on here because I like to pretend that nobody reads it. When I'm not pretending that everybody reads it, I mean.

I've just been really busy doing things like writing, putting off writing, hating myself for putting off writing, and more along those lines...

I've also been watching a shit-ton of American Horror Story and Riverdale, but you all probably have been, too, so you can't fault me for that. That's just how it is. Anyway, I haven't got much to say tonight; I'm listening to it rain cats and dogs outside, and our actual cats and dogs (including Roxy, the stray we took in) are all inside, safe and dry. I'm about to start drafting more on Dreamsinger, the sequel to Dreamseeker.

In case you missed the new edition of Dreamseeker, it looks like this;


The cover for Dreamsinger is even better. And it has a hot shirtless boy on it, just for bonus points.

In other news, Netgalley -or the St. Martins intern with their companies' Netgalley password, blessings to whichever- decided to treat me like the prince I am, and send me an arc of her new Valkyrie fantasy, which I've been waiting for for just about forever. I'll probably start reading that tonight and...well, I'll probably finish it tonight, too, because who are we kidding here. I just finished rereading The Selection, too, and now I'm gonna reread The Elite. I need good old comforting rereads right now.

I'l leave you with this: I just created a Medium account and you should definitely follow me there for articles and advice about publishing, book promotion, and my wild ranting about pop culture. Kind of like this blog. But better. And hosted on a more popular site. (I think.)

[Another reminder, Shadows of Ourselves is free on Instafreebie, and this is the newest edition with the best editing, so it's a sweet deal. Get it here.]

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

"Let me make one thing perfectly clear," he growled right before his mouth came down on hers. The perfect cozy, wholesome romance ...
