I did it. I finished my third novel! Hey, Roomie! is officially done, polished, and prepped for release on May 5th—which means it’s time to bask in the glow of accomplishment, sip something celebratory, and… oh, wait. Because while I was supposed to be taking a much-needed break, my brain had other plans. Apparently, it didn’t get the memo about resting, recharging, or, you know, just chilling for a second. Nope. Instead, it decided to…

Let’s just get right to it. If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you already know that—in addition to being a published author, working on my third novel—I also have a full-time job. On top of that, I am also a small-business owner, having opened an online store in the Fall of 2021. As I occupy multiple creative spaces while still trying to maintain a daytime gig, and as I continue to grow and…
Obviously, I’ve been away for a while. I haven’t, however, been idle. The covers for both Duality and Vitae have been redone, and the e-book versions can be purchased via the Apple Store, Barnes & Noble, Scribd, and others. I am so thrilled! How did this happen? Well, if you’ve been paying attention, this shouldn’t come as a shock at all. I laid out my research and findings in previous posts, and also explained that…
The publication date for Vitae is fast approaching. No, I’m not quite ready to disclose when that’ll be. Trust me, though, you’ll know as soon as I’ve finalized the date. What I am willing to share with you right now, though, is the final cover. I’ve gone back and forth quite a bit with the design. Admittedly, most of the changes would likely only be noticed by me or by those who pay attention to…
It’s been a busy time for me as of late. In addition to hours increasing for peak season at my day job, I’ve also been hard at work with promos for Vitae and with solidifying some of the groundwork for the novel I plan to publish by the end of 2020. Speaking of Vitae…I am twenty days past when I initially hoped to have it published, and we are now looking into early 2020 before…
I am grateful and blessed to be able to share that DUALITY has been named a 2019 IAN Book of the Year Awards Finalist in the category of Fiction: Paranormal/Supernatural. The ability to coherently state how amazing an honor this is escapes me. DUALITY is my first novel and to have it (and me) recognized in such a way is a milestone I’ve longed dreamed to reach. Some of you may know that my intention…
Friday, November 8, 2019. That is the date the current edition of DUALITY will be removed from Amazon in both Kindle and paperback formats to make way for the updated second edition to be released on Sunday, November 10, 2019. The second edition will have a number of cosmetic/formatting changes on the outside and inside of the book; and, though I am hoping that VITAE will also be released on the same day, I am…
A couple of weeks ago, I posted the front cover for VITAE. Of course, it has since been tweaked a bit (as I said it would be), so here is a peek at both the front and back cover. I don’t think I’ll be fiddling with it anymore, but will be sure to let you know if I do. Also of note: My hope is to release VITAE on November 10th. However, if it is not…
Though there might be a few tweaks between now and the release date, here is the front cover for VITAE!
