Heads up that I'm embarking on the Great Western Road Trip at the end of this week—right when temperatures are set to crest far beyond 100°F [40°C]. 🥵

If you happen to reply to any of my newsletters within the next few weeks, rest assured that I'll read & respond as soon as I can, assuming I don't melt. I might even drop a couple photos to anyone who checks up on me.

But who's going to send these newsletters if I'm not around to do it? 🤔

Keep reading to find out who I've asked to step in while I'm on vacation!

Major Box Set Milestone

Last week I promised to share some numbers related to the eBook box set I've got on the market. It's a bundled collection of the first 3 books in Swanie's dark fantasy romance saga, and if you haven't gotten it yet, you can do that here:

I ran the box set at a 99¢ price point for the month of May and rattled your chains every week in an effort to drum up sales. 😜 The results?

132 Sales 🥳

Nearly $50 in royalties! 💰

We achieved this incredible milestone together—over 100 sales without paid promo! You are SO awesome, and I truly appreciate your help. 💖

Nightfall Offers His Thanks

My oldest panther would like to extend his gratitude to each of you, from those who bought his mommy's box set to those who've left reviews on his mommy's latest book [Numinous Fortune]. He'd like to know whether any of you have panthers of your own—those who do are top-of-the-line humans, in his opinion.

Newsletters While I'm Away

So I recently rattled a few chains that belong to the side characters in my His Name Was Augustin series. I've asked 7 of them to take up the pen and introduce each of the 6 books & 1 novella in my now-complete series. Some of them were a bit hesitant, while others leaped at the opportunity.

Get ready to meet one of Swanie's modern-day girlfriends next week, when she stops in to tell you all about my full-length freebie: Arcane Gateway.

🦄 WILD Book Fair 🦄

Got another awesome book fair for everyone, particularly readers hungry for paranormal romance or urban fantasy. There's an anthology lingering in this book fair that I happen to have a stake in. Also, I see a permafree that I read and enjoyed a few months ago—Night Revelations by Godiva Glenn.

✨ Wild Books! ✨

👒 Giveaway Time! 👒

I'm doing some market research before I start working on the next series in my Teutonic Fantasy Realm. Are there specific tropes or themes you LOVE to read about in paranormal romance and fantasy? Are there any you'd prefer to never read again? What sort of app or e-reader do you use?

If you'd like to put your name in the hat for a $10 gift card to the eBook retailer of your choice (doesn't have to be Amazon!), just fill out the survey! I'm collecting emails of respondents and plan to randomly choose a winner once my husband and I get back from our Great Western Road Trip.
