We Got Hurricanes In Author-Land 🌀
Oct 01, 2024 8:00 pm
Sending a quick authorly update in case you wondered if I'd been blown into the mountains with Hurricane Helene. Thankfully that did NOT happen. But my power & wifi is currently absent, so I'm here at Firehouse Subs typing out a newsletter to you, my trusted reader friend! 😉
(And yes, it is NOT lost on me that this hurricane is named "Helene." And the star of my forthcoming Teutonic fantasy saga is named "Helena.")
Like...really dudes? 🥴
Thankfully my husband and I are safe, and our property is undamaged. But we likely won't have power until the end of this week, so my social media will remain deafeningly silent for now. If you haven't taken a dive into my Teutonic Fantasy Realm quite yet and think now's a good time to do it, you can find eBooks of my two complete series here at my book shop:
And here's my Books2Read author page where you can find retailer links:

As of right now, it looks like Amazon has price-matched Gift of Snow to free on their US store and their UK store. So if you haven't grabbed Nelke's love story yet, it's free for the taking in the US and UK markets! Here's a universal link for Gift of Snow so you can (hopefully!) grab it and dive in:

**Remember that Gift of Snow will not be set to free on my shop. It's free on most retailers, just like Veiled Magic is free on most retailers. 🙂
Books & Book Fairs
Sadly I don't have any "devastation" photos to share, since no power means no phone pictures. But I do have a couple compelling fantasy books by other authors that might awaken your interest, so be sure to check out each one. Then take a peek at the Halloween-themed book fairs happening this month.
Would he be my savior or my enemy?
When I woke up, I found myself utterly alone in a new and unknown world full of danger and magic. Then I met him: the most dangerous man I had ever laid eyes on. The mer king.
He called me his people's savior. Heart of the realm, the long awaited queen of all merfolk and the only person who could return the magic.
All I'd have to do was to participate in a simple rite to reverse the overlay of the worlds. Only, he didn't tell me everything. Because magic like this always had a price....
Accused of treason. Hunted by my kind. Fleeing into a forest where magic runs wild and secrets lurk in the shadows.
I’m Lila, a woman with sharp wit and sharper magical skills.
Branded as a traitor, I escape into the depths of Blackwood Forest.
There, I collide with Ryker—a shifter with angelic allure and a cloak of hidden truths.
He sees me as an enemy, but our destinies are entwined by the whispering trees and ancient magic.
Enemies by fate, allies by necessity, we must navigate a labyrinth of enchanted creatures and buried secrets.
Together, we stumble upon a relic that could redeem us both or shackle our souls forever.
Now I'd better skip out so I can finish putting out all the "business fires" that popped up during my internet absence. Plus all the standard personal fires. 😉 If Helene hit your area, please let me know you're okay! Have you gotten power back? Did you get flooded? Have you sat in line for 1 hour trying to fill your gas tank? Have you gotten a hash brown bowl from Waffle House?
Will catch you again next week, hopefully back in wifi-land by then. In the meantime, stay weird and wonderful! 💖
Talk to you soon,
