Happy October!

Hello, my darlings!
We're into my absolute favorite time of year now, and I'm throwing myself into all things autumnal—cooking fall recipes and baking fall treats, decorating, pulling out the sweaters, waiting impatiently for the leaves to change color... I'm still dealing with lingering fatigue from my bout of covid, but I hope I'll manage to get lots of good fall walks in.
Rainbow Space Magic Con was so much fun. There were lots of great panels and readings. If you weren't able to attend the virtual conference, you can find the recordings of the panels and readings (including the reading I did from To Love the Dragon King and the marketing panel I was a part of) on RSM's YouTube channel. Next up is GRL. If you're going to be there, you can check out where to find me below.
On the writing front, I'm working on the second book in the Dragons of Ivria series, tentatively titled To Trust a Dragon Spy. Dragon Spy will be Felix's book—I loved writing him in Dragon King, and I'm enjoying getting into his head in this one. I'm also still playing around with planning (for as much planning as someone who is not a planner does...) the first book in the witch series I mentioned last month. I'm planning a four book series of cozy witchy romances, and this first will be set in autumn, so I'm enjoying all the autumn vibes. I'm so I'm excited about both projects, and I'm hoping to publish them both in 2024 but no promises at this point. It's early days for both!

I hope to see you there!

I adore this cozy, witchy book and the whole series it begins! It's one of my favorite autumn rereads.
