Finally, some ACTION!

I did it!
I took the leap into self-publishing with my new Unconventional Princesses series, starting with JOLISSA - An Anti-Princess Story!
And for the month of April, I'm hosting a Giveaway for it, HERE!



Another exciting first - POP TRAVEL is now a screenplay and I've submitted it to some prestigious contests. Hope to hear from them in the coming months! (I also sent it to Chris Pratt's agent, you never know!)






Also coming up this quarter - THE THING THAT TURNED ME anthology will be Released MAY 31!

I'm doing a special post on my blog with teaser blurbs from all the authors and their stories on APRIL 18.

April ~ May ~ June





April - Blogging from A to Z Challenge!
We at THE REALLY REAL HOUSEWIVES are participating in the A to Z challenge this year. Our theme is A to Z Around the House, of course! We will share our domestic tips, advice, and silliness alphabetically!



Coming Soon!
I put off the publication of CRADLE ROCK in search of an agent to help reach more readers... so it will be released DECEMBER 2016. And I'm planning some SCHOOL VISITS this fall to spread the word!

Welcome to the forest.

Gabe the goblin and his girlfriend Ona the ogress are headed in opposite directions for Spring Break. Ona is taking an expedition to Camp Cradle Rock hoping to find evidence of humans, but Gabe thinks she's wasting her time so he's grudgingly giving her the space she wants.

Soon after arriving, Ona goes missing. Gabe and his friends race to find her and discover a village of trouble, igniting an age old war. Though his wilderness skills are lacking, Gabe won't give up. He will find a way to save his girl and possibly all beastkind. Humans, bah!



What I'm Reading...


What I'm Writing...
  • DISPOSAL - Pop Travel, Book Three - I'm up to 30k and fitting in more words as often as possible. I can't wait to give it to my CPs!
  • I put several of my short stories on WATTPAD.
  • I continue to submit short stories and poetry to online e-zines.
  • As for WHEN THE WIND BLOWS - Beast World, Book Three, outline is done and I hope to write up a rough draft this summer.

Where I'll be...
April
  • April 24 - OHIOANA in Columbus. My first and favorite event. We've been growing and getting more successful together each year!
May
  • May 7 - CONATRON in Somerset, KY. Still debating. I love CONS, but this one is new and the last time I did a newbie Con, I didn't fare so well... Books can go either way in a smaller CON. Will let you know...
June
  • June 10-12 - SCI FI VALLEY CON in Altoona, PA. This Con is established and I've wanted to go for a while. My son will come with me and we'll visit grandma who lives nearby. Very excited about it!
Yay for SPRING!
I always feel rejuvenated and ready to tackle new projects this time of year.
As nature starts blooming - so do the ideas!
