Blitzes, Reviews, and Release Date Announcement

Today, Widow of Papina has a blitz going on, so I'm being tweeted links to blogs like crazy! I'm glad to see it getting some noise around it, and I hope it picks up a bit of momentum.

The blitz for Quest for a Popstar is on January 16th, which is also it's release date! It's coming up so fast. If you want to join the blitz, sign up HERE.


Both books are available for review. I'd love to see some reviews up on the day of QfaP's release, and I'd love to see some reviews on Amazon and Goodreads for WoP. You can request Quest for a Popstar HERE and Widow of Papina HERE.

Quest for a Popstar is also available for pre-order which you can find on Amazon

Curiosity Quills has ARCs available for Dwarves of Calcus (Fairytale Galaxy #3) Here are the details to request a copy:

I'm still waiting for a cover for this one, but the insides are all ready to go for what I believe is going to be a MARCH 6TH release. 

In other news, I am now back in college! I intend to earn my degree to become a Secondary English Teacher! So excited. I'm currently working at an Elementary school as an Interventionist, so I'm getting some real world skills while studying. But, because of work and school, my releases will likely slow down for a while. I'll work on keeping the series current, but new projects won't be in the works for a while. The studying should help improve my writing skills though, which, in the long run will be beneficial for my readers! Yay!


That's it! Update complete.

RELEASE DAY for Widow of Papina!

I am so excited for this release! Originally titled "Papina", Widow of Papina was a novel I trialed as a self-published book. But, I felt like going down that road wasn't giving it the attention it deserved, so I pulled it, and signed a contract for it with Soul Mate Publishing, who have previously published three of my other works.(Branded, Dancing in the Athenian Rain, and Brownlow Baby)

And now, today I am launching back into the world with a new cover, fresh editing, and ready to to amaze! (I hope for that last part at least) So grab your copy today!

Cover Reveal for My Novel: Widow of Papina

As you may, or may not know, I am re-releasing one of my previously self-published titles through Soul Mate Publishing. The self-publish route wasn't doing what I'd hoped for, so I took the manuscript to SMP who I have previously published the novels; Branded, Dancing in the Athenian Rain, and Brownlow Baby. With that comes new packaging and some wonderful editing to really make the novel sparkle. Papina, now titled Widow of Papina will release on...

Dec 13th 2017.

Yeah, it's CRAZY close! You can pre-order Here.

For now, here is the brand new cover! Enjoy!

Until one day, Forrest doesn't come home.

Scandal spreads when one of the teenagers is found missing, too. But Braydon refuses to believe her husband would leave her. When the teen is found, she isn't talking—literally.

He’s smitten by Ali, and when she refuses to submit to his whims, he brands her for death. In a wild act of defiance, she snatches the branding rod and sears the mark onto his face. Marking not only him but also sealing her fate. Ali manages to escape and flees into the bush once more where she finds a group in hiding.
