PreOrder Lilacs and Vanilla

So Lilacs and Vanilla officially comes out on Oct 7th (my husband’s birthday) but we do have the links for pre-order. Pre-order is available for 99 cents early on. It’s a full length LGBT novel. I’m working on getting the paperback out so that will be out in a week or so. However, it for sure will be out on the 7th.

The other thing to mention is that Perfect Human is nearing completion. Cover for that is ready and I will have it finished by Oct 8th for the editor. I’m sure it will probably take a week or so to edit and I think I’ll probably release that towards the end of October. There will be a November release for The Nights After, The Reaper’s Apprentices prequels.

Anyway, that’s all I wanted to post. Get your copy of Lilacs and Vanilla today!

New books for fall

Hello and welcome back. Today is all about the new books for the fall. I just wrapped up Lilacs and Vanilla yesterday and sent it to my editor. It's a full length f/f novel and the first in a short series. The release date for this will most likely be October 11th. It may come out earlier though no earlier than Oct 7th (my husband's birthday). Yes, it will be available for preorder once I get the book formatted.

Now that this has wrapped up, I'm trying to wrap up Perfect Human #1: Project 99 and my TRA prequel, The Nights Before. PH will probably be out either late Oct or early Nov. The Nights Before will probably come late Nov or early December. That will be it for me this year along with some short stories. I still have no editor for The Summer Key right now. If I don't get one soon, I will plan something else regarding that.

2017's first book will either be Smoke and Ashes, Ghosts of Burning Inn #3, or TRA #4. It depends on how I feel at the moment. No idea when it will be released yet. I'm going to be working full time again so we'll see how things run.

I have to work on my September newsletter now and get that out before the month ends.
Much love,

The future and onwards

Hello and welcome to another update. This one won’t be a long update. I realize I am behind on updating my newsletter but we will have that one ready soon. This post is for updates on future works. Midnight Lessons is back to me for one last check and I plan to release that book on the 12th of September. The Summer Key is with my publisher and I’m waiting on an editor right now. I have also written quite a few short stories and a novella to come out in separate anthologies. I’m also going to put together my own little anthology that I want out by the New Year.

So currently for 2016, we have the following:

Midnight Lessons (novella, erotica) – Sept 2016

Keeper of Fate #2: The Summer Key (novel, fantasy) – I’m hoping sometime Oct but it’ll depend on how much editing I will have to do

The Girl With One Arm (short story, ghost) – for Solstice’s horror anthology to be out Oct 28th

White Glitter (short story, mystery) – a Portman’s mystery for Solstice’s winter anthology to be out Nov 28th

The Lovers of Vale (novella, paranormal/romance) – a Reaper’s Apprentices novella for the AITC II Christmas anthology out around Dec 2016

Perfect Humans #1 (novel, sci-fi) – maybe early October if I’m lucky. This is the project I’m zipping through right now.

Somewhere between this, I plan to finish Lilacs and Vanilla (want it out by late Oct/early Nov 2016) and an anthology of shorts (out by Dec 2016) . I also want to finish Ghosts of Burning Inn #3 this year but we’ll see how things pan out.

This is what’s planned for 2017:

Patterns & Parallels #4
Keepers of Fate #3: The Autumn Key
The Reaper’s Apprentices #4
Flavors of Love #4
Smoke and Ashes (the sequel to Sparks and Flames)
Winky’s first mystery for Portman’s Creamery
Operation: Genome #2
A Cirque Macabre short story for the Solstice love anthology for Feb 17

I haven’t put dates on some of these because I’m not sure what will finish first. If I don’t do Ghosts by end of the year, it will definitely be out first in 2017. Also the final part of the Black Paradise Circus arc will be done too. Needless to say, I have to make up for lost time because of the wedding this summer.

I’m definitely looking forward to writing for the fall. I’m sorry I didn’t really have a summer novel but I will make up for it.

Much love,

~C

September update and free books

Hello and welcome to September. Now that we've more or less settled down after the wedding, I'm back to writing. I haven't written anything huge or big but I've got a couple of short stories done as well as my novella for the AITC II anthology. I'm going to go over the edits tomorrow and send it in and we will be ready!

In the meantime, I have got some freebies up. Some are for a limited time only.
This short story is free all around.

The rest of these will stop being free after a certain time.

I apologize for the cover on the last one. It just didn't come out the way I wanted it to. But yeah, these are up for review so if you want to review something, come grab a copy while you can.

Now that most of these smaller works are out of the way, I'm going to get back to my bigger works. I hope to finish Lilacs and Vanilla before the year is over. There's also a new book called Perfect Humans that I may finish this year too. The Summer Key should be out before the year end as well. Everything else is still in the air. I know I didn't do much writing in July because of the wedding. Now I have more free time so I can get back to things. I have to get back into all these different worlds as well. Once I'm in there, we'll be good to go.

Hopefully, I'll get back to updating social media like normal too. Take care.
