Out with the old, in with the new. Times change, and so can covers.

That's right, ReBirth+ is getting a fresh new look.

More info to come! Including a cover reveal date for all 4 new covers and ARCs

Watch this space.

In the coming months a few things will be happening, including the release of my second Twisted Retelling: Death Like Sleep at the beginning of 2026.

Something exciting is coming for ReBirth.

One more, one last time

I'm dragging myself out of hiatus to say that my funny, smutty, romcom romantasy That Time I Was Kidnapped by the Fae King is part of the #naratessindiesale

Social Media hasn't been very... helpful lately. I know I should be marketing Kidnapped, or talking about my next retelling, but it's been hard to focus on anything other than nothing. I'm hoping this project will help me find my voice and joy for writing again.

Excuse me while I start a new, secret project.

Do readers like the idea of a Bounty hunter falling for their mark who happens to be a fallen angel? Demons may also be involved.

41-year-old Mom of 3 and author looking to be adopted by a group of like-minded ladies.

Writes smut
Encourages the use of cl*t
Loves tea and books

Needs accountability for putting words on page.

On Wednesdays we wear full snippets. But on Saturdays we want you to share one line you wrote this week you're proud of. If you're between books or poems, pick from your last work or from the last time you wrote!

In That Time I Was Kidnapped by the Fae King, Bryn is the MC. It's her story. And she lives every Book Girly's dream of taking a Fae deal and having him take her away from the life she once knew. All while rescuing him from himself.
Happy Friday, friends! We made it through the week 😌 On Fridays, we're going to ask a question about books. Sometime it'll be for writers, sometimes for readers, sometimes both!

Today's #WritingQ: WHY is your MC the MC? What is their motivation to play that role? Did something happen to them?
July 18, 2025 at 10:35 PM
This goes well with yesterday's prompt too, which i totally flaked on.

From That Time I Was Kidnapped by the Fae King

Today I wanted to write. But instead my 15 year old sat next to me and word vomited all his knowledge of PCs, PC parts, and computer world drama.

I listened. Because I want him to know he can talk to me, even if it means I can't do what I wanted to do in the first place.
July 10, 2025 at 5:53 PM
What if I said a Fae shifter was reunited with his p*nis? Would that intrigue you?
July 9, 2025 at 6:35 PM
"one more, one last time"

no really. I try to sneak this phrase in at least once a book, IYKYK
What’s something you try to include in everything you write? #WritingPrompt

My kids (15m, 11m, and 9f) are watching the OG Jurassic Park with me:

Some highlights:

All 3 were shocked when the lawyer was eaten off the toilet, 11 laughed.

Its been a while since I've talked about my WIPs

Well here's an update:

Death Like Sleep is "done" and resting. Its with a few betas atm. But mostly ready for edits.

The Drowned Prince is only 11k. And going slow. Motivation is low, but we're plugging away at it.
June 30, 2025 at 6:09 PM
It's too damn hot.
June 28, 2025 at 10:48 PM
Drowned Prince has been interesting to work on because the antagonist isn't who readers think it is.
Do you have any antagonists that aren’t necessarily the main villain of your story? #WritingPrompt
June 26, 2025 at 2:53 PM
I can do this. I can write again.
June 26, 2025 at 2:53 PM
Trying to write in the state of the world (and a 15 year old who needs to constantly talk) is really hard.
