Unexpected

I have a novel that I'd basically given up on that is free to read on Kindle, I self-published it there in 2015 after no agents would take it (it's good, they said, but they can't sell it because, at the time, Vampire Romance was absolutely glutted). It's called Once Bitten.  It's a vampire novel. It was supposed to have 2-4 sequels, but it performed so poorly, I didn't bother. I uploaded it to a platform called Inkitt. I have 300-400 readers now. It's offered for free, which is completely fine by me. It's 10 years old, after all, and was a colossal flop. But... um... now I have 300-400 readers. Some as far away as Australia. Some as unique as Malaysia. I am... floored. Honored. Floored. Yeah. M.

Dream Mate Series

 Yes! The news you have all been waiting for (or at least I have)! Dream Weaver is getting a little brother, Dream Reader. I was so excited to find out tonight, I screamed out loud. What could possibly be next? A book cover for Dream Weaver ...? 😲 Love to all. M.

One Down!

Dream Weaver is finished. Just need to go over some edits with my editor and get a book cover, and then all is done. Dream Reader and Dream Catcher have been submitted for outline approval. I will probably only do one of the two, and incorporate the other into the next novel, but we'll see. I'm hoping it will be a series, but I have to see what the editors in charge think of the idea. I have other ideas in the hopper that do not have to do with what I am calling the Dream Mate  series. I also anticipate being given more ghost writing work for eGlobal. I have started shadowing other editors at eGlobal. Training "officially" starts on Monday, but you know me. Have to be ahead of the game. Love and light to everybody. I couldn't do this without you.

Editor!

 Hello all! I am so excited to tell you that I am now an editor at eGlobal! Of course, I have to go through the training before I get any writers to help, but I am just over the moon, seriously. And no, that wasn't a reference to my werewolf story "Dream Weaver." Or is it?  "Dream Weaver" should be going up on media platforms fairly soon. I'm expecting to see my cover by the end of the week (rough estimate, don't want to overwhelm our poor cover artist). I'm 31 chapters into 50 in two weeks and I am STOKED. Chapters start going up after I have 10-30 finished. I anticipate being finished within the next 1-2 weeks, with the story going up somewhere in that timeframe. Will keep you all posted! I finished my chapters for the collaborative work, and feel very proud of myself. This doesn't happen often (the proud of myself part), so I'm riding the high. Thank you all for being there with me through the years. You all make it worth the journey, rock

It's Raining Werewolves!

Halleluiah! I just got offered a 2nd serialized novel contract today, and I am VERY excited about it. This one will be ghosting, and co-authoring, and the project isn't done yet, so I won't go into details, but the ink is dry enough on Dream Weaver  that I can now start gushing about it! Dream Weaver is a werewolf romance set in Minnesota and Wisconsin, two of my favorite states. It's got RenFest, lake life, downtown Minneapolis flair - all kinds of goodies. And, you know, werewolves and romance. I should be getting cover art for it back in a week. Hopefully it's something I'll be able to share with all of you! Thanks for listening to my gushfest. M.

Back in the Saddle Again

Hello Friends, Family, and Fans! I am pleased to tell you that I am working on a new Werewolf Paranormal Romance for eGlobal, and I am loving every minute of it! Once it is published, it will be available to read in serialized form on apps such as Dreame. For those of you keeping track (or maybe just me), it's been seven years since I published a full-length work. Life has been busy, busy, busy! I have two beautiful nephews. I've had several "real" customer service jobs. I sold my house. I lost a dog and got a dog (miss you, Joe-Joe - love you, Domino). I've edited THREE books for my prolific and talented Uncle Mick (who writes very sensitively and honestly about his journey of faith and depression). I've been back to Guatemala. Changes and opportunities abound! Serialized online fiction is new for me. Well, serialized online anything is new for me (is it okay to already feel old when you're not yet 40?). I'm learning some new tips and tricks and I'
