Welcome to a new year filled with new books

I'm gearing up for a great big writing session in the Cursed Realms! This is Innocent Beauty, the continuation of Cursed Beauty, and I've already written a nice little chunk that I love. This series is one of the reasons I separated my regular romance name from this fantasy pen name. This series is still clean/no-spice, but it does have witches (based on the term everyone is familiar with though mine don't cast spells but have an inherent magic they're born with) and dragons that are not evil. If that's not your thing, I get it. I will be writing in different styles but this name will always be no spice fantasy/fairytales.
If you're interested in fancy editions, you can follow along with the Kickstarter and be notified when it goes live. Kickstarter backers get their books before the book is available anywhere else.
On the home front, we are on our last year of high school for our kids. It's hard to believe we're almost at the end. Our oldest has his first job and loves it, thank goodness! And the youngest just wants to be done with school. As a homeschooling mom, he's getting annoyed with me because I'm making him take graduation pictures. Poor kid!
This is what our cats think about the whole thing. They're just over it and ready to chill for hours and hours.
I can't blame him. It's tough being this cute.
I'll be keeping things short and sweet today, but I will probably send another update in the middle of the month. I'll be opening up my launch team and beta reader list soon and would like to give everyone plenty of time to join.
In the meantime, I have a bookfunnel promo and an author to share with you. You do have to sign up to these authors' newsletters to get the free book, but maybe you'll love their letters and books so much you don't mind.
