Double the word count that is. 😉 I’ve got a lot done this week, even though I didn’t feel like I did because I hadn’t sat down to actually process what I’d done. Now that I have, for this newsletter... It feels a bit unreal.

      Another new book, because the last one stalled due to being worried about Matt, and this one is being perpetuated by Lilah, as it is about her favorite character.

      This is something I don’t like being when it requires me to be outside of the house more days than I’m home, but this week, I didn’t have a choice… Though everything went smoothly, right up until it didn’t…

      This time of year is an emotional roller coaster for me. There are a lot of different reasons, seasonal depression and “pre order depression” are two of them… But! I have good news! I got in an order of books *drum roll* for my first ever convention! Read on to get the details!

      It’s that time of year again, the time of year to celebrate your relationship status with your partner or your single friends… Why? Commercialism. Anyhow, I’m not doing anything…

      We’ve made it through the first full week of February! Tomorrow is the Super Bowl, but this week has been in one word: exhausting. Author's life is a bit rambly, but that's normal for the lack of sleep I've been dealing with this week. 

      It’s the last Friday of January, and I’m going to do something different. The last Friday of every month, I’m going to write more of a summary or “wrap up” for the month.

        It’s been a whacky and not so great week, and I’m unsure what fresh hell I’ve ended up in, but my body is not happy with me and I'm blaming the weather for part of it. Gaming, reading, and writing have been my escape from this mess.

      Chaotic is the word for this week. I’ve been following my Muse, and letting her jump around Works in Progresses this week, had some doubts about one, rewrote a section, and did a lot of “Office Work” to get this years releases ready to go, plus my body isn’t happy again… It’s been a week.

      We’ve made it through week 1 of 2026! This week has been rather good to me, and I’m happy to say that there were no major issues, relaxing and recouping from vacation has been the theme for the week. I also started a brand-new book, which wasn’t planned.

This book is meant for an adult audience (17 years and older) due to graphic violence, vulgar language, drinking, smoking, consensual relations between adults (Fade to Black), past trauma such as gaslighting, emotional manipulation, death of friends, drugging, self-harm, and familial abuse.

We're back home again and happy to say the return trip was smooth, though we could’ve done without the snow when waiting for us… Also, WE GOT THE CAR BACK TUESDAY!
