Hello, my lovelies 🙂
A short note to let you know that my very first podcast is LIVE!!! Go have a listen to Personal Ghosts 🙂
Writer, Writing
Good morning!
I’m just sitting down for a writing session. A little later than I’d hoped to start this morning but I ran some errands (garage, groceries…etc) and I started my Guinness beef stew (slow cooker recipe), which smells delicious!
This weekend feels like a write-whatever-is-shouting-the-loudest-at-me, which means I’ll probably switch back and forth between manuscripts for a bit before settling into one. I do have one book that I’m revising for something special so that will be the evening writing session, but for the rest of the morning and afternoon it’s a free-for-all 😀
I do hope you’re all enjoying The Blood Queen! I do have the opening written for the first full-length Saint book so you will be seeing more of her 🙂
At this moment, I have fifteen Word files open. Out of that, two are books have been published and I’m just giving them a little freshen-up because the rights revert back to me this year and I plan on self-pubbing them. Another two are short stories, two novellas, and the rest are WIPs. I have countless files of stories that want to be written, but the open files are the ones that are the loudest and that I want to publish this year and next year so they take priority. I do have story out on submission to a publisher and one out to an agent.
What am I most excited about?
The werewolf book! That came out of nowhere!
The werewolf book is writing fast so I think I’ll have done and ready to submit by the middle of next month (must edit and revise before subbing 😉 ). I love werewolves and I know they seem to be everyone sometimes, but I’m excited and I hope you guys will be, too!
Now, I’m taking myself offline, making some tea, and starting my session. I have a timer that keeps me on task (I’m really impressed with it, actually) so I can schedule in breaks and such.
Have a wonderful day!
Oh! Hold on!
Just a reminder that over on my Tumblr page I’m taking prompts. I’m having a blast writing them, so keep them coming in! I have a list of prompts and what I write for, and you can sub through the Ask Me Anything link ❤ ❤ ❤ Now…
Have a fabulous day!

Become the witch you were born to be.
Harley Sinclair has had more than her share of heartbreak, and now she’s all alone once again, trying to hold her life together and move on from the tragedies and the losses of both the dead and the living.
However, she cannot indulge in grief over heartbreak nor death.
Bodies are being found all over London, and then one turns up in the Coven’s confines. Someone is hunting witches and wizards, and with the Coven leaderless, they are more vulnerable than ever.
In order to escape the memories haunting her, she agrees to fly to Chicago to find the source of the murders before everyone she knows is killed.
Discover the magic, mystery, and mischief in the final installment of the #1 bestselling Coven Series!
*** PLUS *** books 1-4 are 99c each!
EXCERPT:
The man yanked Harley up from her seat, still keeping the gun on her, and pulled her across the hall, kicking open the door
where Caelum was being held.
He was being held still by two men, while the one woman held a silver blade to his throat. The third man had a gun pulled on
him from the corner of the room. His wrists were bright red, as was the area of his neck where the blade touched. The silver
was burning him. They had figured out he was a shapeshifter.
“What are you waiting for? Kill him!” the man holding her commanded.
Everything after seemed to happen in slow motion. The woman dug the tip of the blade into his throat and moved it downward,
obviously to stab his heart and kill him. Caelum gasped and closed his eyes, absolutely helpless. He looked ready to swoon from
the pain.
Harley’s body began to tingle from head to toe as her magic blossomed within her, hot and angry and ready to strike as though it
was a living thing.
The man holding her let go abruptly, as her magic burnt him, eyes wide as he stared at her.
She paid him no mind, however. Her eyes, and her heart, were on Caelum.
“No!” she cried, and at her word, as though it was a command, her magic seemed to break free, uncontrolled and harsh. The cuffs
holding her snapped apart and fell to the ground with multiple clinks while her green magic flew out, attacking every single human
in the room. As if it were a wave, it dispersed, knocking all six humans into the walls. Now not held up by anyone, Caelum fell in
a heap to the ground, blood slowly dripping from his wounds.
No longer shaking and filled with brimming magic, Harley rushed forward, not checking on a single human. She kicked the knife
out of the way and felt for a pulse on Caelum. It was there, they hadn’t reached his heart yet when her magic had stopped them.
“Caelum,” she whispered, feeling her hand tremble as she held her palm over his wounds. “Plaga reparo,” she cast over and over,
until he was no longer leaking blood. Without saying a word, her magic went out on its own once more and shattered the handcuffs
so that he was no longer burning. Gingerly, she took his hands in hers and healed the round burn marks on his wrists.
People clattered behind her and she leapt up, ready to defend them both if need be. But to her surprise, she saw Director Mancini
and three other agents from the PID. Judging by the Dark energy, two of those agents were vampires.
“What happened here?” Mancini asked, looking around.
“We found the hunters’ lair,” Harley replied. “I will fill you in later; Caelum needs help. He fainted as they were trying to stab him
with a silver blade.”
Mancini went down by Caelum and said, “I believe he’s simply unconscious now, but we will take him back to the PID and get a
Medic to look at him. Are you all right?”
“Yes, sir,” Harley said.
“How the Hell did you knock them all out?” one of the other agents asked, nudging one of the hunters with her boot.
“I–” She wasn’t sure what to say. To admit that she didn’t have full control of her magic to the paranormal police was a bad idea.
“Never mind. Are they all alive?” Mancini asked.
“Not this one.” The other vampire agent pointed to the woman who had held the knife to Caelum’s throat. “Her skull’s been
shattered.”

RELEASE DAY: The Blood Queen
Happy Tuesday, my lovelies!
Today is the day 😀 The Blood Queen is LIVE~ grab your copy today!
BLURB:
A dark ghost is hunting young women along the east coast. Out of the fourteen linked to the spirit, only two have been found- their bodies tortured and drained of blood. The Paranormal Detectives and FBI agents working the case know two things for certain: the ghost is a woman, and she was smuggled into Boston from Eastern Europe.
Saint McGuinness hasn’t been to her hometown of Boston in several years, haunted by the nightmares of her past. But when a good friend comes to her door and asks for help hunting those responsible for smuggling the dark ghost into the city, she can’t say no. After witnessing the carnage that took place fifteen years prior, when the city was brought to its knees by the summoned Dark, Saint will do whatever she can to save her old stomping grounds from bleeding again.
Even if that means walking into the one place she never wants to see again- the Dark.
I hope you enjoy The Blood Queen! Happy Reading ❤ ❤ ❤
