Celebrate! Celebrate! Dance to the music!
Hello followers!
Inkshares launched a new contest today, in conjunction with Nerdist, for Science Fiction books! I decided to enter Mutants: Uprising into the contest. This is a short, two month sprint for preorders, and the top three will be published by Inkshares, with at least one picked by Nerdist to be part of their publishing imprint!
Please click through and check out my story samples. The book is written in SECOND PERSON, which I hope you’ll enjoy. Highlight what you like, recommend, or even review it! And, of course, your preorders are desired! Mutants: Uprising already exists as a complete first draft of over 100k words. (If you haven’t already, check out my already-funded book Fae Child!)
Thank you for your time!

Dear supporters,
The first draft of Fae Child is nearly finished. I have been a bit blocked/busy, but I’m eking out what I can, when I can. However, Abbie’s story arc is completed! I am writing her father Dan’s chapters to catch him up with her. It’s a bit of a switch mentally, but once I get going I think it will wrap up quickly.
Quill books ahead of me in the queue are starting to get editors assigned! They are still looking at a production schedule of 6 or so months before they are published, but there is finally some movement. This is great news for those authors, and for Fae Child as well.
Now, I have a favor to ask: Inkshares has started a new Science Fiction contest, sponsored by Nerdist. I have a story already written that just needs editing, and I have decided to enter the contest! Am I crazy? Probably. Please click the picture below and follow Mutants: Uprising. Once it goes live, I would be so appreciative if you preordered. In the meantime, if you could read the sample chapters/excerpts, and recommend or review it on the site.
It’s hard to be the ’good guy’ when you lead the local cell of the League, a terrorist organization. Gang warfare turns out to be the least of your worries when shadowy organizations start targeting your friends.
Mutants: Uprising is written in SECOND PERSON, and I hope you enjoy it! Just following the project is all I ask. Thank you!
Have a great Tuesday!

Hello Friends!
Great News! I was recently able to send in my manuscript to the people at inkshares! This was a big relief for me--at 33 weeks pregnant, I was anxious to get my product into the hands of the professionals before the baby arrives. BTW- thanks to everyone who gave me input on which of these baby poems to include in the final draft! (note: I picked the Stork and Baby Rose.)

At the same time, I got to write a bunch of book jacket information (Author Bio, short synopsis, etc..) This felt SUPER AWKWARD, but I got through it, and feel pretty pleased with the final product.
