Reminder that this is a ‘older’ first draft that was actually written before Kandy’s three prequel shorts, so there might be some continuity issues. I think I’m finding and patching most of them as I work through these early sections, but some might slip through until I really dig back into the writing full time. […]
Sorry no newsletter today, and no Misfit 2 excerpt. I’ve pushed hard on writing new words this week, so little else has been done. And now I’m calling it. Conduit 4. First Draft. 80, 034 words. Done!! ✅ I have no idea – other than my pain has been ‘a lot’ this year – why […]
The fog across the water was delightfully thick and the ferry heavy on the horn as it crossed back and forth between islands this morning. I threw on a light jacket for our morning walk and revelled in it almost being fall! Being an October Libra, autumn is my fav time of year. Breakfast smoothies […]
Note: I can’t commit to posting this weekly yet, but you all enjoyed the first chunk so much that – once I get Conduit 4 into second draft stage – I might be able to work on this book a little bit more. No promises! FYI: Any text in brackets just needs to be double […]
[Sorry. On reread, this is a bit of a ramble but I’m posting anyway!] One of the most difficult aspects of creating for me to wrap my head around (STILL!) is that a lot of what makes a book really good – really juicy, or really buttery, or rich, or whatever your preferred descriptor – […]
I added 2500+ words to the first draft of Conduit 4 (current total: 62, 783 words) this morning. (FYI. The first book is Awry). And I’m now sitting in the living room with my laptop and staring at my far too long ‘admin’ to-do list. And really resisting doing any of it. I’ve been tracking […]

Zaya and Rought on the couch …
aka the slight NSFW art that caused Mailchimp to suspend my newsletter account last Thursday. Enjoy! [I freaking adore this perfect rendering!!] KEEP SCROLLING (AND SCROLLING)FOR THE SLIGHTLY NSFW VERSION OKAY! READY? SLIGHTLY NOT SAFE FOR WORK ART AND FULLY NOT SAFE FOR WORK EXCERPT (THAT INSPIRED THE ART) BELOW Content Note: explicit language and […]
Not so randomly on a Sunday …
I’m working today, even though is a perfect overcast day and I’d love to be curled up on the couch with a book, because MailChimp suspended my newsletter account on Thursday. Their ‘bot’ flagged my newsletter with the new slightly NSFW Conduit Series art that I’ve been teasing for way too long. Though that’s just […]
