Hey!This will be a short newsletter today. I'll get right to it!FIRST, in book news, I just finished writing a new book called How To Get A Date With An Evil Tyrant Overlord. (You may have heard me mention it in past newsletters.) And while I can't g...
Hey!I CANNOT tell you how excited I am to reveal this cover to you today! This is the book I've been working on since December of 2023 when I came back from South Korea. (I actually had planned to write this book on the plane home but I ended up gett...

It’s a funny feeling, being this close to having my first book officially launched and out in the world. I’m pretty giddy. And I do weird things when I’m giddy, like making odd faces even when I don’t know it. My mind has gone to another place–I’m ba...
Well, friends, it’s happening. I’ve dragged myself through parts of this process, and I’ve skipped like a giddy schoolgirl through other parts, but I’m so close to having everything ready that I can practically taste all the wintery flavours I’ve jam...

Not every book I write has the fundamentals of my faith interwoven into the fabric of the story. In fact, most of the novels I write are just cool stories. For my debut, however, I wanted to choose one that hit a little closer to home. Yes, I’m going...
Straight up, I have a lot of books. That shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to many of you. At Christmas, most of my presents are fresh printer-and-ink-smelling rectangles in tacky Christmas wrap, simply because I make it easy for my husband to gue...
