Okay. How funny is it that the day I'm ready to update the blog...it is a year after the last post?? Gosh.
First...apologies for the silence. I have a million (valid) excuses, but I don't want to list them all. So let's just jump right into the updates...
July 19th...

About Seraphina Grey & the Carnival of Nightmares taken from the Newsletter...
"This story...was a long time coming. And I'm so very sorry it's taken me so long to get it to you. But honestly, I could not be happier with how it turned out. It's weird to say but I'm so proud of it. I don't usually come out and say those kind of things (at least it feels like I don't hah!) but...I feel like I needed to acknowledge that. Like with Blood Farm, I tried not to be so obvious with the Carnival of Nightmares. We tend to think of nightmares as simply things that scare us...but I truly believe our real fears are rooted in an avoidance of truth. They need to be contemplated so that they can be conquered. And I think this book hit all the notes.
I hope you love it as much as I do ✨💛✨
Recommended reading order...immediately following Blood Farm 😉
If you sneak a peek at the first page you'll see what I mean..."

August 16th...

Seraphina Grey Summons a Demon hit #1 Best Seller in YA Monster Fiction & #2 Best Seller in YA Coming of Age Fantasy on Amazon. It was an amazing experience, and I'm so grateful for all the love everyone has shown the series.
September 24th...

And then Dark Reflections earned two #1 Best Seller tags on Amazon. YA Ghost Stories and Monster Fiction which was completely unexpected and such a happy day.
And then March 29th...

I finished the final draft of book four of the Grey Sisters Saga... Phoenix Grey Forges a Blade 💛
Completing this book... It was the most incredible experience of my writing career.
It is crazy to say that because you'd think all the best seller Amazon tags would've been better...
But, no.
Finishing Blade tops everything thus far.
It was literally my favorite book to write. I love everything about it. Absolutely everything. This book...gah.
I just love it.
It is with the editor now, and I'm hoping for a late April release 🥰
Newsletter Update...
At the end of the summer, I will not be renewing my service provider so...although I will still be sending out newsletter emails...it will be directly from my email and not through the service.
This means, no more automated sign-ups for new subscribers and the emails won't be as fancy. I apologize for that. But hopefully you'll still enjoy them.
And...yeah. I think that's it.
A lot of personal stuff going on...but I'll save that for the next newsletter email...which should be sent out sometime this week.
Now...back to drafting book five!! 😱🥰💛
