Gang, meet Stark. He barks & bites. He's also got a wolfish appetite. 😌

✨️trad pub transparency update✨️

2nd royalty check for THE POISONS WE DRINK (for January 2025-June 2025): $2.2K

To go from a $12K royalty check to a $2K royalty check is an adjustment, I'll admit. It changes a few plans I had in mind for 2026 as an indie author.

1/6
✨TRANSPARENCY TIME✨

Buckle up!

Finally got paid for my IP gig. So, officially, I no longer have trad pub work. So, I'll break down my trad pub career from 2020-2025 ($ before agent fees):

MONEY STUFF:
Wrote 3 books (PB, MG, YA)
The PB and MG were IP.
YA had a $15K advance.
MG had $15K.

I bold the font, make it bright red, and highlight it yellow. I don't have time for the foolishness.

🐺🚨sneak peek alert🚨🐺

the first nine chapters are now live and waiting to be devoured! just head to the url and grab your copy in pdf, epub, or both (whatever satisfies your appetite). read, and if you’re into it, share the feast (show your friends the middle-aged sluts too).

🚨ANNOUNCEMENT🚨

As I prep THE BEAST YOU MADE OF ME for release, I realized it’s not quite where I want it. I’m pushing the date to Nov 30, 2025 (if Amazon cooperates). I just need a little more time to get it right. Thanks for your patience & support! 💙

QUICK QUESTION: If I put in a book: "He wanted to push her granny panties to the side and grandfather her in..."

On a scale of 1 to 10, what is the livelihood of you returning the book & blocking me on all social media accts, gang? I'm trying to weigh the risks vs the rewards.
