Musings & more….
I’ve been greedily holding on to this pretty, pretty video from Gene Mollica Studios but have decided that this rainy weekend is the perfect time to officially reveal it in all its glory (admittedly the Facebook fan group got a sneak peek).

The Amplifier Protocol (Amplifier 0) and the novelette, Close to Home (Amplifier 0.5) have been officially released into the wilds of all the online retailers for one week today! Paperback version coming very soon!
Thank you to everyone who has read and reviewed, or tagged me with an encouraging note on social media. You all seem to be enjoying the Amplifier offshoot of the Adept Universe so far! YAY!
Here are a few spoiler-free review snippets for any of you who might not had a chance to read the new book yet:

I’ve been getting bunch of questions about the Amplifier Series (how/where/when to get/read the various books) and I thought I should try to answer those questions concisely all in one place.
I will also be sending an email to my new release list on Tuesday, March 26 when The Amplifier Protocol (Amplifier 0) officially releases on all retailers. After that, I hope everything will be a lot clearer.
So, to the point:
The Amplifier Protocol (Amplifier 0) releases on all retailers on March 26, 2019. The preorder is now available. This is the SAME NOVELLA that I released here on my blog for free. It is set seven years before the events in the main series.
Close to Home (Amplifier 0.5) will be made available in two ways. The novelette (16k) is bundled with The Amplifier Protocol as a bonus story – for those who waited to read the prequel or those who wish to purchase the prequel to re-read. Close to Home will also be available as a preorder giveaway for Demons and DNA (Amplifier 1).
Preorder giveaway – I will officially launch the preorder giveaway for Demons and DNA (Amplifier 1) on Tuesday, March 26. But! It only really applies if you choose to NOT purchase Amplifier 0. I wanted everyone who read the prequel on my blog to still be able to get A0.5 (without forcing them to buy a book that they might have no intention of rereading). I hope that makes sense.
Demons and DNA (Amplifier 1) releases on all retailers on April 30, 2019. The preorder is now available.
So to sum up, here is the reading order:

Chapter One, Part One releases on January 8, 2019
They called me an amplifier. And they had bred me, raised me, and trained me to be a killer with preternatural precision. I was capable of taking, holding, and transferring power that wasn’t my own with a simple touch. Skin-to-skin contact. Along with four others of my generation, I could infiltrate any magical organization, extracting whoever or whatever I’d been ordered to extricate. Then I could destroy all evidence of our passing presence.
They had made me. They directed me. Controlled me.
Then they tried to kill me.

This short novel (40k) will be shared with readers through the blog every Tuesday and Thursday starting Tuesday, January 8, 2019. Subscribe to the blog so you don’t miss a single post!! The book will then be released on all retailers.
Synopsis: Two more elves were at large in Vancouver, but thankfully they’d been keeping a low profile while I faced the most daunting task of my twenty-seven years — planning and executing my wedding. I was dealing with a disgruntled grandmother with an extensive guest wish list of the magically inclined, all of whom didn’t particularly like each other. Plus a fiance whose concept of time was altered whenever he stepped into a dimensional pocket, and a best friend who’d spent months planning what was certain to be an insane bachelorette party. How was I supposed to find time to worry about possible invasions, or the motley crew of magical misfits who had unrepentantly upended my peaceful existence?
Not that I was complaining.
Who didn’t love wielding deadly weapons, opening a bakery, and marrying their soul mate in the same week? Or was that just my sort of thing?

Sorry, as you might have noticed already, there is no newsletter from me in your inbox this morning. I was planning to ‘launch’ the new T-shirt designs from Dowser 7 but the final test prints haven’t even shipped (three weeks and counting) so apparently whatever annoying curse I have going with T-shirts is still holding strong. Oh, well. It will eventually sort itself out.
Anyway, I didn’t want to clutter your inboxes without any new or exclusive content, so I’ve decided to skip the February newsletter. I’ll try to get my act together in March … with something that doesn’t hinge on T-shirts being available. Promise.
To make it up to you I’ll be posting a paperback giveaway for Dowser 7 later on today. Yay!

Coming January 18, 2018
Synopsis:
I had everything I’d ever wanted — a successful business with a second bakery in the works, a sexy fiance who I adored, and good friends who loved to laugh almost as much as I did.
So of course it couldn’t possibly last.
Unfortunately, this time the trouble was homegrown in Vancouver, threatening my own backyard and those who were under my protection — whether they wanted to be or not.
I was, after all, the wielder of the instruments of assassination.
Apparently, cutesy cupcakes and being nice only stretched so far.

If you have any friends or family that you think might be interested, please share. Just warn them about stocking up on chocolate before they dive in … it’s like the opposite of waiting an hour after you eat to go swimming. 😀
FYI: Dowser 1, 2, and 3 are also books 1, 2, and 3 of the Adept Universe. Click here to find the full reading order.
