Made by MeghanGIVEAWAY CLOSED. WINNERS HAVE BEEN EMAILED. My second of four (okay, maybe five) giveaways to help celebrate the upcoming release of Gemstones, Elves, and Other Insidious Magic (Dowser 9) is for autographed paperbacks. But! This time instead of giving an entire set just to one winner, I thought I would split the series up into […]
GIVEAWAY CLOSED. WINNERS HAVE BEEN EMAILED. Over the next five days, as I count down to the release of Gemstones, Elves, and Other Insidious Magic (Dowser 9) on December 4, 2018, I’ll be launching a series of giveaways. Two giveaways, including this one, will be on my blog, one will be posted/run in the Facebook […]
Blitzen in a Cup is one of my most requested cupcake recipes, but when I first tried to make them – easily five or six years ago – Michael didn’t think they tasted like coffee or eggnog, just chocolate and butter, so I shelved the recipe. Move forward to the upcoming release of Gemstones, Elves, […]
I asked my beta readers to share favourite quotes (if they came upon any) from their read of Gemstones, Elves, and Other Insidious Magic (Dowser 9). This was one of Theresa’s from Chapter One. Dowser 9 releases on December 4, 2018. The preorder is now available. Make sure you’re signed up for the New Release […]
Mory jogged back into the room, sliding through the doorway and past Rochelle on the hardwood floor in her hand-knit striped socks. “I almost forgot,” she cried, thrusting her hand toward me. She was holding a chocolate bar. A dark-chocolate bar with pistachios and dried cranberries, to be exact. From the ever-delectable, soul-fueling Chocolate Arts, […]
Update: I’m now running a wait list for the swag boxes. Email me the info I requested below to be added to the list. First come, first served, if I have any extra boxes. Since I didn’t manage to make it to any signings or conferences in 2018, I floated an idea about a week […]
[Deleted long blog post. Then distilled it down to the important beats]. It is with joy in my heart but tears in my eyes that I share the cover for Gemstones, Elves, and Other Insidious Magic (Dowser 9). And yes, it is the last book – for the foreseeable future – in the Dowser Series. And the […]
Me (yesterday afternoon): the third draft of Dowser 9 is done! The muse (late last night): Hmm … what about [insert unresolved minor plot point]. Me: Now is not the time to worry about that. I’m trying to fall asleep. Scott (aka the editor) will flag it if it’s an issue. The muse: it is […]
I celebrated the one week anniversary for Graveyards, Visions, and Other Things that Byte (Dowser 8.5) by finishing the third draft of Dowser 9. Then I remembered I usually do so by sharing some early reviews, so I quickly popped around online and collected some pull quotes (see below). Thank you to everyone who has had […]
Living on the west coast of Canada means that I often wake up to find that a few voracious readers (in other timezones) have already consumed a new release while I slept, and Graveyards, Visions, and Other Things that Byte (Dowser 8.5) hasn’t been an exception. I’m so, so glad that so many of you […]
