Humorous fantasy author. Mom. Pie and coffee enthusiast. Not necessarily in that order. I write about a snarky demon & inept human hero bound together on a quest to save the world.

I think Lev Grossman's The Magicians is the only series I've ever read where I wanted to DNF the first book, but by the end of book 3 started calling it, "one of my favorite fantasy series of all time."
Have you ever had someone urge you to keep reading a series and found that they were right?

My books are...light. Fun. A bit silly. But never have I made myself laugh the way I did in the first few chapters of book two of this series. I don't know if it comes across to you as a reader--but at one moment I laughed myself almost to tears. 😆

It's been 500 years since a hero summoned a demon to the self-proclaimed "Glorious Land of Widdershins."
But...WHY would a hero summon a demon? And what happens when they do?

This quote is from one of my favorite scenes in the series. It takes place in the Underworld and let's just say it takes the fellas some getting used to and NEITHER of them are happy about it. 😉

Let the reread begin!
Actually, I started the reread over the weekend but will not be done in time for Ravenguard--one of my most anticipated fall releases--to come out tomorrow. Which is fine, because that way the end of the series will come a little later.
Do you get sad when a series ends?

🏆 AWARD WINNING NONSENSE! 🏆
A couple of years ago the first book in the series won a Pencraft Award and I have been MILKING IT ever since. 😆
Seriously--if you enjoy magic, adventure, & nonsense, Widdershins is a great place to visit.

It's perfectly gloomy and only 64 degrees today. I have my Fiction Bath Co. "Salem" perfume on. Feels like fall.
How's the weather by you? Turning crisp and overcast yet?

My books are about a snarky demon and an inept human hero who get bound (literally) on a quest.
These books are for adults, but if you don't like bad words, this is not for you. The demon swears.

Oh, Reg. Ever the peacemaker. 😆
Love funny fantasy? (Or as the lovely bookseller Amy Poirier calls it, "funtasy?") You can get Mal & Reg's (mis)adventure on KU, Amazon, or order it through your local bookshop.

GOSH Alix really draws you in, doesn't she?
(No, it did not occur to me that this was a Beauty and the Beast retelling until I looked the book up after I read it. 😆)
Read anything lately that took you by surprise in a good way?

Totally change the vibe of a book or movie by adding “pants” to the title. I’ll go first…

Author friends—why does time do us dirty like that? 😆
I'm slowly plugging away at something right now that I don't really want to talk about until I have a completed first draft, but it's coming in fits and starts.
What do you do that has to be put on the back-burner sometimes?

Haaaaaave you met Mal?
This is the origin story of how the main characters of my Widdershins stories actually met and kicked off their (mis)adventure together. Currently it can only be read in the Rebel Diaries Anthology, or by signing up for my newsletter. <wink, wink>

Hi, everyone! Sorry that I've been inexplicably absent from the socials. Topping the annoying-o-meter for the past 10 months has been mystery dysphasia.
But MAN do I miss you all. And I miss talking books and nonsense.
