Hello, my darlings,
Here in the US everything is...well...*waves hands at everything* and it's horrifying and scary and I'm angry and anxious, but I'm trying to do what I can and stay hopeful. Signs of spring are helping, and so is following the Artemis II mission. I've been watching the live stream a lot and staring at the photos as they're released, and it all renews my belief that we can still do good, amazing things.
As for book news, if you missed it, my backlist books are all out in ebook again. And by now (finally), they are available at all retailers. You can find them at the links below. For anyone who has read these books, nothing has changed, so you don't have to purchase again. (I was tempted to edit, especially with books like The Prince's Consort that I wrote over ten years ago because my writing has improved and changed so much since then, but if I started revising, I probably wouldn't have stopped!) If you have read them already, can I ask you to please leave a review wherever you bought? My old reviews have all disappeared, so it would be so helpful if you could when you have a minute.
A Dance of Water and Air will be $1.99 in the big spring Narratess indie sale this coming weekend. I'll send out a quick reminder newsletter when the sale starts Saturday with the link. The big sale ends Monday, but I'm keeping Dance at $1.99 through the week so you have a chance to grab it.
Also next Saturday, I will be at CycloneCon at Centenary University with books to sign and sell. It's a big college-run event celebrating sci-fi/fantasy, gaming, anime, cosplay, and lots of fun stuff. There will be panels and workshops and stuff for kids. I will be among the exhibitors with what paperbacks I have of my books at the moment—these are the NSP editions that I have from the last time I ordered Tournai and Elemental Magicae books, but like I said, covers and content haven't changed. The link to buy tickets is below—I hope to see you there!
I'm working hard on getting To Know a Dragon Spy ready to publish. I had to slow down some to get my backlist back out in the world, but with that done, I can concentrate on this again. The major revisions are done, and now it's just more minor edits and proofing. The usual things are all below.

To Love the Dragon King
Once upon a time, before the hunts, dragons were plentiful in the world. Now they exist only in legend…except in the land of Ivria.
Currently Reading
Still not a ton of time to read and reading slowly when I do have time, but I've had this one on the TBR for ages, so....
Monthly Book Rec
If you're looking for some fantasy romance that's cozy and heartwarming (with miniature dragons and sentient plants...) because of the state of the world, this is a lovely one.
