Today I’m pulling back the curtain and giving you a peak at what goes on behind the scenes. Specifically, I want to share some data supporting why I decided to stop writing books in the Sunshine Walkingstick Series. Before I get into that, here’s some background. Sunny’s first novel, Greenwood Cove, was a side project…Continue reading Why Vampire Alley will (probably) be Sunny’s final novel

What I’m Working on Now
Remember last year when I told you that I was headed in a new direction? How one of the things I wanted to focus on was writing the books I want to have written before I died? Well. About that… I spent the remainder of last year, from August through December, trying to focus on…Continue reading What I’m Working on Now
Sunshine Walkingstick Series is now in Kindle Unlimited!
The Sunshine Walkingstick Series is now available in Kindle Unlimited. When I originally pulled Sunny’s stories out of Amazon’s exclusive reader subscription program a few years ago, I swore I wouldn’t put them back in. At the time, they sold better when they were more widely available, so it made sense to keep them that…Continue reading Sunshine Walkingstick Series is now in Kindle Unlimited!
Time Off, Starting a New Series, and General Updates
After the release of Vampire Alley, the sixth Sunshine Walkingstick novel, at the end of June, I took a month off. That time off was completely unplanned. I had intended to jump right into outlining the first book of the newest series, but for whatever reason, one day passed and then another, and before I…Continue reading Time Off, Starting a New Series, and General Updates

I’ve discussed this elsewhere (somewhere!), but Sunny first walked into my life in September 2014, as a fully drawn character,…Continue reading Just ten more days!
Crossville Supernaturals: Power Dynamics
Note: This post first appeared in my newsletter on 1 April 2023. *** Writing Black Witch Rising has led me down some interesting pathways. The interactions between Puck Aefre and Nessa, for example, have been incredibly illuminating. While writing a particular scene in which Puck demonstrates some powerful magic, I realized that Nessa had no true, consistent role model for…Continue reading Crossville Supernaturals: Power Dynamics
