I’ve been reading over The Rise of Renegade X, so I can read it back to back with The Trials of Renegade X, something I’ve never done so far, at least not since Trials was actually finished. Â Besides reading them for fun (because, OMG, I have a series, or at least if two books counts […]
When a Book Goes out of Print
So, as some of you have noticed, you can no longer buy new copies of The Rise of Renegade X.  You can get used hardbacks, but new ones haven’t been available in months.  (I even got confirmation that there just aren’t any left.)  The print run ran out and that’s that. Except it’s not.  This might […]
Pre-order The Trials of Renegade X!
I’ve been working on this for a while and am super excited to announce that you can now pre-order The Trials of Renegade X on Kickstarter! Â Not only that, but you can get it a whole MONTH before everyone else! You can also read a sample chapter of the sequel! Â And, besides getting to read […]
Back from Everfree NW!
Back from the pony convention! Â Not that I was really gone, since I live here, but whatever. For those of you who don’t know, Everfree NW is the local My Little Pony convention. Â I used to watch the original My Little Pony back in the early 80s, though I find that one doesn’t really hold […]
Renegade X Sequel = DONE!
Wow, it’s been a while since I posted (guess I was in the writer cave longer than I thought). Â I looked at my last post, where I had 19,000 words in the sequel. HA. Â Now I have 115,000 and it’s DONE! Â That’s right–this book is going to exist. Â It’s going to come out this September. […]
Harper Madigan is Free This Weekend Plus Some Good News
To celebrate Harper Madigan: Junior High Private Eye’s one year anniversary, the Kindle version is free all weekend–Friday, Saturday, and Sunday–over at Amazon. Â And if you don’t have a kindle, you can still download it and convert it to a different file type, if you’re into that kind of thing. AND my good news about […]
The Trials of Renegade X – The Blurb!
Newsletter subscribers got a sneak peek at this last week, and now, as promised, I am proud to present the description for The Trials of Renegade X:  Can a half villain ever be a full hero? Damien Locke didn’t choose for his supervillain mom to disown him—just because he sort of defied her and ruined […]
Approaching the Finish Line
Am almost done with WIP.  Disclaimer, it is not Trials, which I know is what everyone is waiting for right now.  (Understandable!)  But it’s still a book that’s very important to me.  It’s much darker than my other work–sort of a dark fantasy YA version of Dexter–and I am, like, 8 scenes away from being done […]
Self-publishing and Harper Madigan
So, I don’t think I ever mentioned why I chose to self-publish Harper Madigan: Junior High Private Eye.  For those of you who don’t know, it’s a noir detective story.  It’s also MG, so self-publishing it isn’t the most obvious path to get it into the hands of readers.  A lot of people have misconceptions about […]
Trip to the EMP and ALA
Went to the EMP/Sci-fi Museum here in Seattle this week. Â The sci-fi museum is probably my favorite museum ever because, well, to be perfectly honest, because it has things from TV. Â And I love things from TV! Â I mean, just look at that Dalek! Â I got to see that in real life and it was […]
