Holy crap! Happy New Year!

 

Good Lord. I can't believe I haven't posted since December...

How is that? I know! I was busy doing a hundred stories!

*sighs*

Not literally, but it was a bunch. As I look back on my last post, I talked about the success with Breakable Faith for Michael Mandrake, doing the follow-up, and his book Taken and Crowned. I also talk about BL's book Nerds Like Us.

Well, all 3 were successful. Taken didn't have as many sales, but it did well in Kindle Unlimited. My follow-up to Breakable didn't do as great, but still good by my standards.

Enter the new year.

Hello 2019!

I started with a re-release for SMOKE which wasn't the big hit as I had hoped. However, I was still getting sales from Breakable so I didn't worry. February came and I was ready for vacation. I went to New Orleans for three weeks, saw Duran Duran, and didn't want to return.

Writing wise, Renewed Faith, Breakable's follow-up was released. I finished Michael's sexually charged thriller Love Kills for another collaboration I joined, and then burnout officially took hold Feb going into March. Even when I got back, I didn't feel like writing as much. The Love Kills book actually ruined me. The scenes were dark and intense and it drained me mentally.

In all honestly, I am just now getting back into writing. Other than edits on my next release, The Resignation, which is a vampire story I wrote for an anthology, I haven't done much writing at all. 

As we speak, I'm doing a short freebie for my newsletter for the characters in Nerds Like Us. Then, I'll shift gears and re-write Sex Type Thing, do the follow-up to Nerds called Fools Like Us, and an MF for Veronica entitled Purple Haze. I'm also finishing Bend because I dropped it while working on Love Kills. 

Once I'm done with one, I plan on starting Death's Angel, by Michael Mandrake. Then onto the next books in the Vale Vale collab, then another MF.

My next releases as follows:

March - The Resignation - Michael
April - Sex Type Thing - BL, Purple Haze - Veronica
May - Love Kills - Michael, Fools Like Us BL
June - Death's Angel, Love Voodoo - BL
July - Unforgettable Faith - Michael, FREEBIE for VV - Brooklyn aka BL 

Long list! And in looking at the rest of the year, sleeping seems near to impossible unless I start writing faster. *laughs* 

Ugh. Here's to 2019!
