Looks like I made the news…well, the local newsletter, but hey, I’ll take it! Grateful for the coverage and the opportunity!

I have a fun last post of 2025: You can now find Legend Has It at Wiki Wares & More in the Greendale Village! Plenty of hardcovers and paperbacks available.

Happy New Year everyone! Here's to all that's in store in 2026! #booksky

Tomorrow! Come wine and dine...oh wait, wrong marketing tagline. Hmm, not really a wine and dine event. There must be another way to use wine and pair it with book sales. Ah!

Sip and flip! Sip some wine and flip through the pages of Legend Has It. Hope to see you there! @rowanprosepub.bsky.social

New blog post on the website. This one looks at the parallels of getting a book published and finding a job in a tough market. #booksky @rowanprosepub.bsky.social

Uncanny Parallels: Book Publishing and an Unstable Job Market
Let’s get the obvious out of the way first. Getting a book published is hard. Like really, really hard. I could just say difficult, but really, really hard creates better emphasis.I used to think all ...

Gotta give one more shoutout to Nocturne Books for stocking Legend Has It. Yes, my friends, you can now get a copy in Canada!

While I didn’t take the top spot in the Shepherd Express’ Best of MKE contest, it’s still awesome to see my name amongst the other finalists. And in print too!

Thanks to everyone for their support along the way. We’ll give it a shot again next year! #authorsky #booksky @rowanprosepub.bsky.social

I know Hugh Jackman serving custard at Kopp’s was all the rage yesterday in Milwaukee, but there was once a time I stood behind those stainless steel countertops. I just need a little more clout and fanfare to do it Hugh Jackman style! 😂

Glad he was here! It looks like he had a great time!

My trips to the @mkepublicmuseum.bsky.social tend to remind me of a #story I wrote in middle school about an unexpected journey with #dinosaurs

The first bookstore I did a meet-and-greet at was Story Keepers Books in West Allis, WI. How fitting that I'll be returning to this wonderful location for its 1st anniversary celebration on the first weekend in December.

Before Legend Has It released, I was busy doing everything I could to make sure it reached as many readers as possible. One of those efforts was getting it in the Milwaukee Public Library's collection. It looks like they included it in more than one branch! @rowanprosepub.bsky.social

Special thanks to Greendale High School for having me talk about Legend Has It and my author journey. It was truly an honor.

When I was in elementary school, we had an author visit us and share her story. Now it’s me sharing mine.

A true full circle moment.

There's a new place where you can find Legend Has It. Check out Novel Bay Booksellers in Sturgeon Bay. I've always been fond of Door County, and now I have another reason to love it even more. 😀 @rowanprosepub.bsky.social #booksky #bookstore #novelsky #authorsky
