Finding the Path

It's been really hard to focus the past month (year? years? decade?). So much is undecided, and I've been between projects for most of 2024, waiting for certain things to happen and dealing with people health and cat health. But by New Year's Eve, I had come to a number of decisions, giving me a clear path forward for 2025.

You're hearing it here first, folks: I'll be going the indie route and self-publishing my first romance trilogy this year! The first book will come out in the last quarter of 2025, and the rest will be published in 2026. The date is still soft, since I'm hiring professionals for all the stuff I can't professionally do myself, and their timeline is my timeline. I'm very excited and have a ton of stuff planned, from revamping my website, linking it to my new, pen-name website, getting real author photos, submitting my books for review, etc. I can't wait to share the titles and covers in a few months.

Most exciting is that these books will be available at YOUR local bookstores and libraries! All you have to do is ask those bookstores and libraries to get you a copy! It's like magic!

So this is the main focus of my work right now, getting this first romance trilogy all together. But once I'm mostly finished with the final edits, my time is just large chunks of waiting for other people to finish their parts. And those large chunks of waiting are perfect for...

Starting to write my next romance series! I've hammered out a theme and I think I can get at least eight books out of it, which is wild to me, someone who always wrote but never thought they'd actually finish any novels.

Communication from me may be spotty, as you have probably surmised. I promise I'll keep you updated every time there's something exciting, or something you can help me with. In the meantime, send me good vibes, and maybe a tip via Ko-Fi to keep me well-rewarded with the little treats that get me through the day.
