Hi everyone! Winter is finally here in California, or at least fall. It's not 100 degrees, and the leaves are falling. I love this time of year, but I still cannot get used to the time change. I still have two more books to release this year so no rest for the wicked LOL.
I'm going to make a fall themed blind date book just for fun. If you order from my Payhip store you can have any paperback wrapped as a blind date if you want. Just message me. I also have a few books in my TikTok shop. I had a TikToker open one of my blind date books on her page.That's a first for me. I was so worried I'd forgotten something LOL. Here's her link: https://www.tiktok.com/@justcallmebellevolkov/video/7435447619666726174?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7435453920010978846
