Teasers and new changes



I did say that this year is going to be the year of standalones and that hasn’t changed yet. Taming the Thief comes out February 9th and Last Dance of the Roses will probably come shortly after that. I’ve decided that the latter will probably be a novella. It’s so close to being wrapped up that I can’t squeeze more out of it.
Party on the 26th! Join in!

Here’s an updated list of books to come this year:
Cirque Macabre #2 (released Jan 12th)
Ghosts of Burning Inn #2 (releasing Feb 1st/2nd)
Taming the Thief (releasing Feb 9th)
Last Dance of the Roses (releasing Feb 25th or so. Depends on the editing)

Don’t forget about my new audiobooks that are out!
The Dangers of Art (A Becca Miyamoto Mystery)
The Reaper’s Apprentices #1: Awakened

Once Last Dance wraps up, I plan to finish up Patterns & Parallels #3. It shouldn’t take me much longer to wrap that up. That will be out in the spring most likely. Maybe I will also finish The Roses Were Pink as well. Snow days make me write way too much to be honest.
Anyway, I’ll see you around soon!

Parties and updates!

First thing’s first: we will be having a Taming the Thief cover reveal party on the 26th! That’s this Tuesday, everyone! We will have takovers and giveaways and lots of stuff. It starts around 10 AM UTC.
Secondly, there will be a release party for the book on February 10th. There will be more fun to be had and it will be going on for about six hours. More fun to be had over here!

I also wrapped up Ghosts of Burning Inn #2 and have gotten the cover for it. It looks sick! This book will most likely come out either late February or early March.

Updates on current works:
Last Dance of the Roses: 28K
The Roses Were Pink: 20K
Sparks and Flames: 7K
Perfume Party Murders #1: 13K

Yes, I still have sequels in work too but I’m slowing down on them right now. Once I can get a cover for Operation: Genome #2, that will come out in the summer. I also plan to wrap up TRA #3 this year (though whether it comes out this year or not remains to be seen).
More updates to come soon.
Much love,
~C

A slight update

I promise not to bombard this post with as many links this time around. I have other things to talk about as well so don’t worry!
First, my audiobooks for The Dangers of Art and Awakened are now available on Audible.
Second, I’ve got a few new things coming up for the future. Here’s an idea of what is coming in 2016 and what is out.
Cirque Macabre #2      http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AH3MWNW?*Version*=1&*entries*=0
Taming the Thief         http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AIAK1G4?*Version*=1&*entries*=0
Ghosts of Burning Inn #2
Last Dance of the Roses
The Roses Were Pink
Arsenic and Diamonds (Perfume Party Murders #1)
The Sugar Mountain Murders
The Reaper’s Apprentices #3
Operation: Genome #2
Sparks and Flames

Now this doens’t mean everything will be published in this year. Things can change and they often do. This is just what I want. It doesn’t mean it will happen. After Ghosts #2, I’m not sure what book will literally be next. Last Dance of the Roses is possible as is The Sugar Mountain Murders (which is technically done. I just need to get the cover).
I have been writing during slow times at my job but last Friday our system went down and I had to leave the work I did for Sparks and Flames and Ghosts #3 behind. I’ll send it over when I go back on Tuesday.
That’s it for now!

Lots of new things

Be warned there will be a lot of links coming here. It's been a while since my last post.

First off, Cirque Macabre #2 is now live on Amazon and Smashwords! I wanted it up by tomorrow, which is my birthday but it's up a little early. Oh well! Here are the links:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AH3MWNW?*Version*=1&*entries*=0

http://www.inktera.com/store/title/aa1bdc16-863f-44dd-a4cb-48e8a2437de9

It took three years but hey, I got it out at long last!

Second, my audiobook for The Dangers of Art is also up on Audible! I'm waiting on my free codes to come in as well. Not only that but Awakened's audiobook is now headed for retail!

http://www.audible.com/pd/Mysteries-Thrillers/The-Dangers-of-Art-Audiobook/B01AATQSFQ/ref=a_search_c4_1_4_srTtl?qid=1452553657&sr=1-4

Third, Taming the Thief will be having a cover reveal party. It will be on January 26th. The book will be out on pre-order hopefully by tomorrow or Wednesday.

Fourth, here's the current list of projects and when they will come;

Cirque Macabre #2 - January 12th
Taming the Thief - February 9th
Ghosts of Burning Inn #2 - March 2nd

Other projects include:

Last Dance of the Roses (standalone)
The Sugar Mountain Murders (Portman's Creamery #4)
The Roses Were Pink (standalone)
The Perfume Party Murders (another PC spinoff)
Patterns & Parallels #3: Heart of Metalia
Operation: Genome #2: The Anti-Genome Group

When these will be out, it's hard to say. I can't estimate when they will be up but The Sugar Mountain Murders might be out in May. Everything else is up in the air.

I also have lots of art to share too but I will do that another time.

With love,

~C

Happy New Year!

I’m a little late on this but Happy New Year to everyone! We’re only two days into it yet I have made some changes regarding my writing. We have some newer projects coming out for one. The first big one will be Taming the Thief. I finally got around to finishing it on New Years Eve. I have the cover and some art for it. I just need to get it edited and formatted and we’re in business! The same thing goes for Cirque Macabre #2. I will probably release CM #2 in late Jan and TtT around early February.
My plan to release Ghosts of Burning Inn #2 is still April 2016 and I still have plan to release the new book, Last Dance of the Roses, in July 2016. If I finish it earlier, it will come out sooner. I still want to release Sugar Mountain Murders (Mary Beth’s mystery) in May 2016. However, we have two more books coming out.
First, it’s the beginning of new PC arc mystery. These are different in the sense that they are darker and longer. This one is known as The Perfume Party Murders and will be a two parter. I’m unsure when this will actually be out but it may be taking place of Sugar Mountain Murders (don’t worry, that one will still come. Just later).
Second is an f/f romance known as The Roses Were Pink. I just started that one today and haven’t gone far on it yet. We’ll see how things go with it.
Patterns & Parallels #3 is at 40K now and nearing an end. I am moving it to the end pile though  because it’s not a heavy focus. I’m also moving TRA #4 to the not a huge focus pile too. This year does feel like a year for standalones.
More news coming soon!
