Hello, friends and fellow Super lovers!
Kim here. Hugh and Kat are off hunting Rogues, Dale's stuck in a portal somewhere, and heaven knows where the others are, so you get me instead.
How are there only 6 weeks left in this year? It's certainly been a crazy one, but there's so much to be thankful for, including you. Without you, dear reader, I wouldn't be coming home to write full-time, which I finally did this week! It took longer than expected, but I now have 8 glorious hours a day back. That'll be quickly gobbled up by other things (har--Thanksgiving humor!) but it means more time for family and for BLACK KAT BOOKS!
I'm still getting into new routines and working on the next Black Kat book. Not all the Supers (and Rogues!) are talking to me yet for that one, so I'm unsure of the final release date. But I've got you covered. I recently dusted off Wynter Fae, a fantasy story I wrote while stranded at home a while back during a blizzard. For some reason, the Supers weren't talking to me. Instead, the Fae were!
Inspiration for Wynter Fae
Wait, what? Where do all these people come from? And why do they keep bothering me in the shower? The next thing you know, I'll be writing about mermaids! (Shhhh. That's only when I'm in the bathtub but don't give them any more ideas!)
Anyhow, Wynter Fae has all the things I love- exotic locations, humor, and quirky characters with powers. They might be pretty, too. And eternally young and thin. (Hey, we can dream...) You can grab the first three episodes free on Vella. Note: only one is up at the moment. These appear every Magical Monday.
I like this format, and had originally planned to write Black Kat as a serial, but didn't know how when I started Unlucky Charm five years ago. I may do a spin-off Black Kat serial some day, but thought I'd try first with something I've already written while finishing up Kat-A-Strophic. Let me know what you think!

Unlucky Charm: Free for a Limited Time
It's been free for the past year at all major online stores, but at some point, it'll be going back up to $2.99. It's also been recently updated (August 2021), so get it while it's hot and tell a friend!
And don't forget to leave a review at your favorite retailer. It makes a huge difference!

Amazon Gift Card Giveaway
I'm doing an Amazon giveaway this month! Since I'm a wide author (literally- I found some pounds this year!) I'll do some giveaways for the other platforms, including Kobo, Apple, Barnes & Noble, and Google. Stay tuned!

Newly appointed by the Magical Council as the (entirely fake) Duke of Winchester, Armand LeRoy already has his hands full reluctantly learning how to fit in with the wealthy and famous.

But when they reach the Queen Mary, the luxurious former ocean liner now turned into an impressive hotel and museum, they find that the stories of out-of-control ghosts haven’t gone far enough.

It seems the spirits are tired of being overlooked--and this time they’re going to have their say...in blood.

Can Forecaster free herself from the lie that’s her life and live the forecast she always dreamed would be her future? Or will she succumb to the man who haunts her dreams and leave an innocent girl to her dreadful fate?
