On my way to investigate my aunt’s untimely death, I chance upon a teenager with purple eyes. Her destiny is so vibrant, so intertwined with the essence that fuels all our lives, that I cannot stand to see her caged and crushed. What I don’t know is that rescuing the teen isn’t chance or happenstance […]

Vampire Unicorns and I inked a licensing agreement a couple of months ago, and phase one of their freaking adorable designs is now live (and I desperately want one of each)! CLICK HERE TO SKIP AHEAD (AND SEE THE DESIGNS) What does ‘officially licensed’ mean? It means that Vampire Unicorns can legally sell merchandise using […]
Okay! Things you all might want to know/participate in and might miss because I’m terrible at repeating myself and the various social algos and email providers love to control what actually shows up in our feeds and inboxes. The reminders: The preorder for the limited-edition PAPERBACKS for [title to be revealed] (Conduit 1) will close […]
Audiobooks: Dowser 7, 8, and 9.
Updated November 29, 2023. The final trilogy of the Dowser Series, narrated by the freaking perfect Erin Moon, is now available in audiobook! Yay!

AND I WILL BE CLOSING THE POSTCARD/ART BUNDLE ON DECEMBER 8, 2023. 😁 Note: the ebook for Awry (Conduit 1) is now available to preorder on all retailers (this version will not have all the extras or all the art). The […]
info on the upcoming Conduit 1 preorder
I started this post over on Facebook but it grew, and grew, and grew, so now it is a blog post! 😂 Just to change the subject from packing Kickstarter boxes to packing Conduit boxes [though, if you don’t follow me on Facebook, you probably haven’t heard me whining 😂] I’m going to try to […]
Conduit 1: limited-editions?
ETA: Sept 28, at 9:27 a.m.: Okay, I think this project is a go! Obviously I’ll leave the interest form open a bit longer so I can get a good sense of the numbers (specifically for a paperback) b/c the price per unit lowers (obviously) the more I order. I’ll aim to have the preorder […]
Just me and 183,000 other writers.
The database* used to train many generative AI platforms has been made public, so authors/writers can now see whether pirated copies of our books were used in order to train the AIs. Spoiler alert. FOUR (4)❗️of my books were used. That’s easily three years of my life (+$ for art, editing, etc), not including all […]
Teaser Tuesday on Hiatus
In case you missed my other announcements, I’m deep into a social media/email break/embargo while I get Conduit 1 off to my editor (aka SFG) for story editing. The first (full) draft is finished – yay! And the book is currently 100,099 words. Which is a little insane because I’m only four chapters into a […]
To bookplate or not to bookplate
I just spent way, way too much time trying to post this poll over in my reader-run Facebook group, just to never have it show up. Sigh. Anyway! Reposting it here instead. – MCD *** Wow! MCD posting a poll?! How unusual??!! 😂 I’ve finally hired a new graphic designer/PA (Amanda from Eternal Geekery)(Whoot!) and the first […]
