News: Cover and Release Dates

3/13/13

• I have a brand new cover to show off and release dates to announce!  I waited months and months for any word on my story for LT3's Rocking Hard Anthology and I watched (and envied) as volume one came out on serial.  Now, I finally know where and when My Truest Love will appear. 
  
  Check out the cover below!  And be ready on July 3, 2013 for My Truest Love to hit LT3's serial section!  That's a tentative date, subject to change, but still something concrete.  The ebook will be available February 12, 2014! 

• I have started writing my vampire story for LT3's Proud to be a Vampire Anthology.  It's called Memories of Blood and I'm liking it a lot so far.  I've actually got two stories in my head right now that would work for this collection.  If there's still time when I finish Memories I may write the second story too and let LT3 decide which one they want.  You can follow my progress in my current projects section! 



• Paint, Guns, Money, & Love is almost complete.  I'm currently writing the buildup to the final action scene.  I hope to get the story close to 40k words, which means I still have 10k more to write.  It's an exciting challenge for a very exciting book!

• I have a new website!  I finally got fed up enough with google sites that I dumped them and moved to weebly.  Check it out! 
  
• The Oracle's Flame has been submitted to LT3's If You're Reading This Anthology.  I'll let you know if they accept it or not, but I'm not worried.  The story has pirates and twins!  How could they not love it?!? 
  
• I'm working hard on the edits for Melting the Ice Witch.  It's the final story in the series so I really want it to go well.  Keep an eye out for it in June!

• My blog tour and giveaway was a huge success!  I really enjoyed visiting other blogs and the giveaway had a great response.  Thank you to everyone who participated! 
  
• I am so close to finishing my submission to LT3's If You're Reading This anthology, The Oracle's Flame.  I have a final scene to write and the editing to do.  Can I finish it by the deadline in eight days?  Well, I'm certainly going to try really hard! 
  
• The edits for Melting the Ice Witch are sitting in my inbox right now!  I've made an executive decision to finish The Oracle's Flame first before I tackle this next big project, but they're sitting there taunting me. 
  
• You can now follow me on Facebook!  Please stop by!

• Stealing the Dragon is in the publisher's hands.  LT3 will have it ready for pre-order very soon!  I will be going on a blog tour to promote Stealing and the rest of the Dragon's Hoard Series starting in February.  More info to follow so stay tuned! 
  
• I've been working with LT3 to get the print version of my submission to Kiss Me at Midnight, Hadash Aviv, ready for publishing.  I expect it to come out sometime in early February, but those dates are subject to change.  I can't wait to see it, because I know it will be excellent! 

News for the New Year

Here's the great news for the New Year!

• As of 1/9/13, LT3's Kiss Me at Midnight anthology part 1 is out!!!  Please check out my submission: Hadash Aviv

  New beginnings come in many different forms.
Aviv's started with a bomb in Gaza and a friendly
American soldier who turned his life around. But
pomegranate trees only bloom in the spring and
aviv is a long way off. Can a chance meeting at a
new year's party finally bring Aviv's new beginning
into flower?

• On 2/6/13, book three of my Dragon's Hoard Series, Stealing the Dragon, will be out

  Stealing from a dragon's hoard is never a bright idea,
 but stealing from a baby dragon's hoard can lead to tears,
 sniffles,and smoke in the middle of a busy marketplace.

   Jerney, a witch who does work for a well-known thieves'
 guild,knows exactly who's to blame for the brazen theft.
 With no other choice in the matter, he quickly becomes
 entangled in trying to help the baby dragon. What he doesn't
 expect is that his own heart might get stolen in the process.

• I also have three more books hanging around LT3's editing boards:  My submission to their Rocking Hard Anthology, My Truest Love.  The fourth, and final, book in the Dragon's Hoard, Melting the Ice Witch is set to arrive in stores 6/4/13.  And, my newest book, Road to Revenge, has been accepted by LT3 as well!  Check out my Coming Soon section on my website for more info!  I'm hoping all three will be out this year.

• My final piece of news is that I have the cover for the print addition of The Dragon's Hoard.  This paperback book will be all four stories in the Dragon's Hoard series bound together into one delicious volume.  I have no idea when it will be out, only that it will be sometime after Melting the Ice Witch.  Isn't the cover beautiful!!

• In just a few days my contribution to LT3's Kiss Me at Midnight story, Hadash Aviv, will be out.  It is currently available for pre-order.  Please check it out! 
  
• I am currently working on the final round of edits for Stealing the Dragon, book three of my Dragon's Hoard Series.  It's still my favorite book of the series and I'm actually having a difficult time with the edits because there is an entire wonderful scene I need to delete to maintain continuity.  It's hard to cut out something I love!  Check back here a few days after StD is out for a deleted scene!

• Happy Hanukkah! 
  
• I submitted Road to Revenge and LT3 accepted it!  I don't know yet if it will run as an e-book or a serial, but it'll be awesome.  I'll keep everyone updated on the story's progress!
  
• I'm still waiting for round two of edits for Stealing the Dragon, Dragon's Hoard book three.  This is my favorite book in the series, so I'm very excited to finish working on it. 
  
• Right now I'm trying to decide which story to work on next.  I have a fairytale, another series, or one of LT3's open anthology calls.  I have great ideas for all of them, but I have to settle down with one and I don't know which!  I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually...

• I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving! 
  
• I'm still working on Road to Revenge.  I really did think it would be finished by now, but that's how writing goes.  I've gotten past the major final hump.  It's just tying everything together and the final scene left.  There's no way I won't have it ready by the end of the year! 
  
• There's finally a release date and a cover for my Kiss Me At Midnight story, Hadash Aviv!  January 9, 2013.

• The edits for the Jack-O'-Lantern's Grin are complete!  It's all ready for publishing and will be available in stores in just a few weeks!  Keep an eye out at LT3! 
  
• I have also finished the first round of edits for Stealing the Dragon, book three of my Dragon's Hoard Series.  The manuscript has gone back to the editor for another round, but so far it's turning out wonderfully.  I think this one might be the best book in the series!  It's also running way ahead of schedule.  I didn't expect to get any edits until December.  I'll keep everyone informed if the release date gets moved up to compensate! 
  
• I think I've lost a bit of control over Road to Revenge.  It was only supposed to be 35K, but it's heading to 40K and beyond.  I seriously thought I'd be finished writing it by now so I could start editing and preparing for submission to LT3.  Instead I haven't even reached the big action scene at the end.  I've a ways to go still, but my goal is to have it submitted before Thanksgiving. 

News

I have three new books arriving in stores this fall!

• The first book came out on Oct. 3rd (yesterday).  The second book in my Dragon's Hoard Series, Breaking the Shackles is another fun read with quirky dragons and some werewolves

  Separated and abused by the magi, twins Laine and Baine each swore to do whatever it took to break free and save the other. But when Baine arrives at the werewolf village prepared to rescue Laine and return home triumphant, he soon learns that any plan involving a dragon and a werewolf is bound to go awry.

• The next book is part of LT3's Halloween Rentboy Serial.  My contribution is titled The Jack O' Lantern's Grin and it will for sale on Oct. 31st.

  When Lex, Neero's brother and alpha, orders him to whore himself out to earn some money, Neero agrees. The needed cash will help their struggling pack. It's just sex, after all, and it's only for one night. But, once he meets the man he's supposed to be keeping company for an evening, Neero starts to think that maybe his night won't be so bad after all ...

• The third book I have coming out this fall is also a serial story.  Part of LT3's The Bestiary, Cleanly Wrong will is my fun and lighthearted contribution

  Rung is a half-breed orphan brownie who can't do anything right, much to the worry of his cleanliness teachers. When he runs away, Rung decides that he can resist the need to clean. Only, there is that one office that so desperately needs help...


There is the possibility of another story I've written coming out over New Years, but until I get an actual release date you'll have to remain in suspense!  Thanks for reading!
