June 2022

This month feels like it had absolutely flown by. And the weather here has been erratic. I will say, it not raining all the time like Oregon did, is definitely a nice change, but rain is welcome. I'm still in love with Kansas though. I saw my first bull snake last night and those suckers are aggressive!

This month has been packed full of camps for my kiddos. Teaghann had art camp at the beginning of the month. Then both kids did swim camp. No longer are they really good at drowning haha. They are level two swimmers. Braedyn passed his swim test so he can go off the diving board now. Braedyn had his final baseball game yesterday and lost. It was a good game from what I heard (I was at work). Now, for the rest of the summer, I am just going to let them live their days at the pool.

As far as books go, the final regency romance - Love Ever Lasting - is set to release on July 14. The paperback and hardback are available for purchase. Michelle is working on another book in the series. I backed out to work on my back log of books, ideas and utilize covers I completely forgotten about.

The Sci-Fi RH novel - Securing Freedom - is up for preorder and is now with my editor: Tiffany Purdon. This book contains a lot of sex, one group scene, and is just shy of being what is called an epic novel (over 100K words). Adele isn't as aggressive as my other females main characters tend to be. She is mellow, calm and level headed. The characters are all very different than my typical style. I hope ya'll like it. This is probably gonna be it for me in the sci-fi department for a while because I do have a set of contemporary covers I need to write books for. I will probably come back and do a spin-off of this sci-fi once I get my contemporary done.

Since my sci-fi is off with my fabulous editor, I am working on a new contemporary mafia romance series - Serendipity Café. I have no idea really what I am doing or where I am going with it. I had an outline for it, lost it, so now, I'm just flying by the seat of my pants. All I really know is Tiffany will be editing it, it's taking place in my current small town of Coldwater and it's gonna have cows in it. Bonus, is I already have covers for it (purchased from Keyminor Publishing) and I use the same company for the majority of my formatting too. They also made my amazing logo at the beginning of my website.

Well, that's my life in a nutshell. Between working, family, writing, it's been a lot. Hoping that I get more time home with my kiddos this next month. I am working days, so it would be 8am-8pm. It's not too bad, though I do love my days off to spend with them. The next time I get time off, I plan to take them to Woodward for some Chinese food. Last time we had Chinese was a year ago in Oregon. 

Take care and have a wonderful day.
