May I interest you in some...new Starfig covers?!
May 30, 2022 7:31 am
Hi Dear Readers!
I hope you're all well and enjoying the last day of May! It's been a busy month here both personally and professionally and I've found balancing the two elements to be a bit of a challenge. We've had visits from family, birthday parties, too many school activities to count, and a research trip to Baltimore. It's a wonder I've written a single word. Sheesh. Here's to hoping June is a little more manageable. *crosses fingers*
In this edition, we have NEW STARFIG COVERS (🔥🔥🔥), another round of If Fantasy Creatures Could Text, and a chance to win some gift cards/audiobook bundles from some of your favorite authors. Read on for details.

Have you seen the Follow Me BookBub with lots of prizes up for grabs? Check out all those authors and me over on BookBub! For each author you follow, one entry will be submitted for the drawings. The more authors you follow, the more chances you have to win. And today, yes, TODAY is the last day to enter. I've provided the Rafflecopter link below so you can follow away.

HUGE NEWS: Look at Twig & Quinn!
Ta-da! I'm really digging these more romancy takes on Twig & Quinn. These covers are obviously a very different style for me and are purposely completely different from the original fantasy-focused covers. I'm hoping that readers who are maybe a little iffy about trying a fantasy romance (*gasps*) will be drawn in by the more romancy aspect of the new covers. My lovely cover artist, Alex Corza, may have had to hold my hand through the process and probably wanted to strangle me more than once. 🤣 But I'm so happy with them. The cover for book 4 is not quite in final form, but it was close enough and I had Alex's permission to add it to the banner to show you. I love that Twig now has his blue hair and tattoo-like scales. I adore that we found a blonde who is much closer to how I picture Quinn (though he obviously hasn't taken the time to shave today 😜). Finding models who haven't been overused was a challenge but I'm happy with our results. Also, I wish I could share Bill's cover with you all, but we're not quite there yet and that book is going to take some time to finish -- that demon knows how to bring the drama.
I'll be replacing the old covers over the next couple of weeks. Please pray to the 'Zon gods for me that they don't mess this up! For those of you who are going to GRL, I'll have the new covers available there and will put out a preorder form sometime in the fall.
If Fantasy Creatures Could Text...
If there's one creature Twig Starfig would love to avoid texting, you know it's his scheming, irritating father. Maybe that's why he has Auric in his contacts under PITA. And as with everything in their relationship, nothing is ever simple.
Preorder Reminders
Just a reminder that I have two preorders up: One set in Verona (A Demon's Dilemma, Az's story) and one set in Baltimore (Cat's Chance in Hell, Carter's story). Once I have blurbs, I'll share them with you all.
I've been working on Cat's Chance in Hell, but I often switch mid-stream depending on my flighty muse. I will say that I'm loving the dynamic between Carter and Bengal and there are a lot of foul deeds afoot in Baltimore . . .
Thanks so much for reading! I'll be in touch. Also, if you're around Facebook, come join my reader group: Maslow's Mischief, Magic, and Murder and hang out with me and my fantastic readers! We'd love to have you.
Happy reading!
