I guess I'll keep writing and make dinner later. Cat law says I'm not allowed to move.

Brews & Books is a creepy quick read that was originally written for an anthology called Fireside: Modern Legends & Lore (Halloween 2022). I have always played with the idea of continuing her story in a novel. If that's something you'd be interested in reading, let me know!

The Big Ohio Book Con was an absolutely amazing event and, while I did find it overwhelming at times, I enjoyed meeting so many readers of my genre. I'm still in complete shock that I managed to sell out of my books, two of which on the first day. Thank you, everyone! ❤️
