Post 78

 


UPDATE: I have a new email list set up. I changed providers and lost my old list. Want to join my new email list and get a free short Urban fantasy story that's a twist on Red Riding Hood? Click here T. L.'s Grimoire  The short story will be replaced later this month with a UF novella to better give you a taste of my writing.

The third Friday and Saturday of this month is Hootin An Hollarin, a local craft festival here in Gainesville, MO. I'll have a table there with my books and a few things my muse has been working on instead of writing. If you're in the neighborhood stop on by and enjoy the craftmanship of many local artisans and crafts persons as well as the delicious food that will be available.

I've been working on the next Time-Lost book, Emergent. 2 more chapters/episodes and it should be done on Vella. Then I just need to wait the 30 days before I can publish. I want it out before the tenth of September so I can have it at TTMP in Hardenville in November. My muse is being her fickle self and working on a new Vella as well as other things, more so than the Emergent one. 

I'm still looking for events close to me to vend at but when you live in the middle of nowhere Missouri it's hard. Most events happen on the East or West coasts and the cost of travel would be prohibitive. But my dream is to go to JordanCon at least one year as a goer then as a vendor. Gotta have a dream right?!

And if you didn't know, you can get Bone Whisperer, A Playground of Bones in Kindle Vella or Kindle Unlimited.  Or for $2.99 as an ebook. It's also a paperback now.  If you want to check  out  Bone Whisperer Vella Bone or you can get it Here on Amazon. It has a new cover now. More towards murder mystery than horror like the old cover was. 

I'm also recovering the Ghostwolf series, the two books that are out. Book 3 is started and sitting in the queue next to Book 5 of Elemental Voice. I'm still looking for names for centuries-old vampires for Book 5 of Elemental Voice. Should your name(s) be picked, the name of course will be used and you will be mentioned in the author notes. .

My T.L. books(the two books Ghostwolf series, the two Fallborn books, and the one Time-Lost series book) are not in KU as they are out on Ingram Spark. Several AMZ accounts have been closed due to piracy and I don't want mine to be one. That way all my eggs are not in one basket, incase the basket gets snatched(terminated) I don't know if I want to put the rest of the series out on IS when I pub them. I may change things a bit. I will see. 

I will keep you posted on that. 

 As of right now there are two novellas, a 'companion' series to EV, Deadly Sands and Deadly Flames. Right now I have the ideas for just three novellas, two of which are published as stated, but with my muse being so fickle who knows if more may come. The third novella is started but it is way down the queue right now. Book 5 of EV is slated to at least be started next year though.

You can check out the 4 books and 2 novellas I have out. I have put them back in KU at least for now. Here is the link to these books if you have not already checked them out. UF Books

They are set in a world where psychics consult regularly with the police and vampires live next door. The FMC Sara reads the earth like a medium hears the dead and finds dead bodies for the local sheriff's office in the first book then works with her vampire FBI agent fiancee in the later books. There is to be five books in this series.  I may come back to this world and do a new series. Depends on my muse and time. I have soo many books in my writing queue.

I wrote a little drabble backstory of how Sara got her gift. Hope you enjoy it. Link: Drabble

 Have you checked out my website? Here is the link to the website: The Rook.  Check it out and tour a world where psychics work regularly with the police and vampires live next door, a world where werewolves hide among us and can manipulate energy(magic), two worlds with dragons, and a world where a Time-Lost tries to stop the past from repeating itself.

These older books are in what I call 'movie style' or pulp. Fast paced and action oriented with little description and a lot of dialog. They are also my first books, full of my inexperience but also full of my creativity. I have left them as is. Sentimentality. The rest of the books will be in the same style.


I'll try to update periodically. But this blog may get dusty. And repetitive.
