Just a heads up: I won't be reading or answering DMs here. If you want to ask me questions about my books you can either pop it up publicly and I will be happy to answer or you can ask on Goodreads. It takes me a bit longer to answer on Goodreads because I only check it about once every two weeks.
Hi, everyone! Just a heads up, M.D. Gregory and I are Pausing billing on our Patreon for a month and might potentially extend it through the holiday season. We have a lot of projects we're juggling right now, so we thought that was best. Thanks!

I've been absent from social media recently. I have been adjusting my sleep schedule. I haven't been right since LAST fall. I finally took a week to be a zombie, and now I feel really human again. It's been weird realizing lack of sleep made me an anxious mess. But I am back to my old self now!

Thank you for reading our books! Here is something fun for you, since you're so awesome. <3

So, surprise! We're doing a murderous holiday book! 💕If you want to pre-order, the book will stay at $4.99 until I upload the final manuscript. I can't guarantee that I will remember to tell you before I do in probably a month, so I'm telling you now. 😅

What else am I working on this week? Well, Meg and I are finalizing an outtake story for The Love Obsession, so if you wanted to see more of Zayn and Keaton, you will! <3

I have said many times that I no longer "scroll" social media. And I don't. But sometimes something so egregious occurs it reaches me by other means. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy. Suicide is not ever a happy ending. Please don't do this. Especially not to romance readers in MM/Gay Romance.

Did you see the collaboration Meg and I are going to be in? I'm excited for it because it's right up our alley.

It's all very mysterious right now, but further announcements are on the horizon!

Update on the audio for The Apprentice: Keval Shah has my "pickups" (industry term for requested corrections from our fantastic narrator), and when he's finished with them, we'll be getting that audio book out for you! I'm very excited. Meg wrote it, and I produced her audiobook. 💕

This is a reminder that I absolutely *do not scroll* on Bsky or ANY social media. If there is something you want me to know directly, you need to let me know it. I am not paying attention to anything at all right now other than getting my books finished. Well, and the news. But I read the papers.

The book we *just finished*, Flirting with the Felon, is currently with our amazing crew of early readers.

It's going on Smashwords. It has a lot of sizzling sexy goodness in it, and it also involves Kismet Leawood sleeping with his half-brother's father. We didn't want to temp fate on the 'Zon. 🤣

What am I working on this weekend? Well, thank you for asking! I'm *finally* getting to the Newsletter Book that Meg and I finished back in February. My summer has been bonkers because I had to move, which I think a lot of you know.

I love our new place! It's cozy. 💕

Broken Promises is the title.

Here is a heads-up about the X-ray system on the Zon and Too Dear for Deer:

The system has been really wonky. I don't know what else to say about it. I've been trying since last Sunday to set it up with no joy. I will keep trying. The glossary is in the back of the book and totally useful! <3

I miss *every single person* I used to talk to on social media, but taking this big break has been wonderful for my mental health and helped me gain a new understanding of my ADHD symptoms. Sadly (or happily?), my days of scrolling are done. I am reachable at our website, though. So drop me a line!

I am so happy to be done with the editing for Too Dear for Deer! Now I'm moving on to other projects in the New Gothenburg world! Finishing a book is always bittersweet, but I'm pretty sure we'll see Scott and Deer again sometime.
