Happy to Report | "Just Stay" is Now Live
Happy to Report | The Chosen Cover
Happy to Report | We're Almost There!
Writing Status Update: #34243243243242343243t4354253 😂😂😂 Whatever. After working my day job all week, then spending most of the weekend working on my side business, cleaning, sorting, running errands, my brain farted and there was no more.
I could not sit down at the desk any more to focus on cover creation and book formatting. BUT, at least the story, writing, edits, cover pick, and title pick are DONE. Now, it's just a matter of wrapping up the pretty package and releasing it into the wild. It's pretty crazy to think about, that after 5 years I'll be published again. It almost doesn't seem real. && then to focus on the Hunter and Scarlett tale...because..yeah, that one.
Happy to Report | Stuck on Titles
I am STILL sitting on these f.cking titles and it's driving me insane. Dylan and Cambrie desperately need a title so I can get this book off my desk and published. Wanna help? Cool... so here are the ones we are sitting with right now. Got any ideas? I am sending out an SOS.
Stay
I See You
Passport
Abroad
Awaken
Awakening
Hunted
one suggested Destination Unknown, which I love, but it is also the name of an Agatha Christie novel and while majority of book titles are not copyrighted like that, I'm not really interested in using a title of hers.
If I can work around it somehow, like use the words mixed with some others, I am open to that idea.
Seriously, NEVER had this much trouble with a book title.
Happy to Report | It's Coming
Worked my way through all of the current beta readers' suggestions and edits yesterday. 😲 Still, a few minor details to wrap up and settle on a cover. I'm not sold on the title so I will have to brainstorm there. It's coming you guys, it's coming.
Prose | For Every
For every beast,
there is beauty.
For every wolf,
there is red.
For every light,
there is dark.
The wolf howls, the beast roars,
the petals fall to the floor.
One by one
until they're no longer, forevermore. ~ Erin Rose She Writes Things

Typed | Devour

“There won’t ever be another you. That smile. That swagger. The way you carry yourself to the public only to be transformed by night. The way we match on the things that matter and don’t know what doesn’t. You growl, I bite back. You never tried to tame me or change me. You accepted your fate and kept going. It’s the way you look at me- like I’m your absolute best friend and yet your hunted prey ready to be devoured at a moments notice knowing I’m going to devour you, too.” - Erin Rose
Happy to Report | the Cambrie and Dylan tale
Writing Status Update: Final run-through of Cambrie and Dylan's story -- DONE.
Just sent the Cambrie/Dylan story off to the beta readers... can we do an anxiety check? 'Cause..I had it...bad... So, while those guys are reading away.... I'll work on this other story... 
'Cause the Hunter/Scarlett tale needs to be hammered out.

Happy to Report : Writing Status Update -- Dylan and Cambrie
Writing Status Update: Hopeful to have the last of the revisions of the Cambrie and Dylan tale done this week --- then off to the beta readers / checkers.
Typed | That Green Dot
‘I hate that fucking green dot.’ she thought to herself. ‘The dot that glares at me, tells me you are online. The one that once upon a time meant hours of conversations. Hours of smiles and laughs. A bright spot on a cloudy day. Now, it just means nothing more than silence.’
Sometimes she could ignore that green light. She tried. Every day she tried.
Tonight was hard as she sat there, staring at that little green light for hours in the darkness. She wanted to reach out. But she knew the end result of that. She knew it would be nothing more than politeness. Honestly, that was worse than the silence.
So, she watched that green dot. ‘I really miss him,’ she thought. ‘Maybe one day I won’t.
But tonight, tonight it surrounds me with darkness and takes my breath away.’

Work in process.....
Typed | In Another Life
She closed that door thinking she’d never hear from him again.
Oh, but how very wrong she was.
“We’ll meet again. In another life. Another time. Maybe.” the voicemail chimed.
Happy to Report | Things are Coming Along
As my brain tries to wrap around the last few big edits before handing the Cambrie and Dylan international love tale over to the beta reading editors - I've re-read the story I abandoned to crank out that one.
Pretty sure it's turned itself into a polyamory tale without even trying. I think Scarlett and Hunter will appreciate more prey.
Happy to Report | 2nd Writing Status Update for 2021
Writing Status Update: I can officially say all the he/she pronouns have been changed to the character's name where necessary.
I do not ever recommend writing a novella without having character names in place first.
I'm still flip-flopping over the title and there are a couple of places I want to do some rewriting. But that annoying task is over at least.
Happy to Report : First Writing Update for 2021
Currently staring at the draft thinking about how I need to finish changing the pronouns to their actual names since those have been decided.
What am I doing instead?
Wondering if I'm actually good enough to continue.
