Over the past few weeks, I’ve been pondering what stories I may want to write when the Sunshine Walkingstick and Vanessa Kinley, Witch PI Series are completed. As I’ve mentioned elsewhere, it takes a while to build a solid story world; if I want to pick up a new series when these two are finished,…Continue reading Intentionality and World Building

Everybody Needs a Little Sunshine
This week, I started developing Vampire Alley, the sixth Sunshine Walkingstick novel, in earnest. So far, I have a strong beginning and a strong ending, but the middle part is still a bit fuzzy. It will come, eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later as this is one of the books I want to get out…Continue reading Everybody Needs a Little Sunshine
New Cover for the Sunny Omnibus!
I’m super excited to present a brand new cover for the Sunshine Walkingstick omnibus containing the first three books in the series.

Runes alone are not enough. The magic is activated by special marks (called incantation lines or marks) drawn in certain key points along the rune. Accuracy is…Continue reading The Speed of Rune Magic
Shadow Magic: A Limited Edition Folkloric Romance Anthology
Sometime last year (or possibly the year before), I signed up to contribute a story to a limited edition, multi-author anthology called Shadow Magic, which will be published by Aurelia Leo. For me, the cover was the draw. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to write an Old Mother story for…Continue reading Shadow Magic: A Limited Edition Folkloric Romance Anthology
