Hi everyone,

Well, unfortunately, my entire moving plan went up in smoke. I got the call on Friday morning after being locked out of everything on my computer letting me know I was laid off from my full-time job. I'll still be moving but to NJ instead of Massachusetts and back into the situation that resulted in me getting covid once...almost twice. But in semi-good news, I might have some more time for writing very soon. Today, I'm doing a group birthday celebration with some friends since we all happen to have birthdays within a few weeks of each other so that'll keep my mind on happier news for a little bit.

And due to the loss of income, I've decided to open up my Ko-fi shop for you. I've added only a couple of tiers and 1 product option with a pay-what-you-can model so far. You can check it out here. I've included both digital and physical rewards to try to include as many people as possible.

When it comes to publishing, I've started editing Dusk's Rebellion (tentative name) for the Gemstone Massacre series. Once I'm settled in NJ, I'm hoping to buckle down and write, write, write.

What else would you like to see as rewards on my Ko-fi?

I was thinking of maybe some pronoun and pride buttons that are gemstone themed for the next Gemstone Massacre book release or maybe some cool mugs.

That's all for now.

Have a great day and stay safe!

Sincerely,

Julia (they/he)
