Publishing News
For those of you who have asked "Where is the 2nd book in the Greylyn the Guardian Angel" series...my sincerest apologies. It should have been published by now. I hope to correct the situation in the next couple of months.
My publisher had economic woes during the past year and has decided to shut their doors. I wish them all the best with their new endeavors.
However, the question remains..."What happens to my series?"
With the return of rights to my story, I will re-release "Rekindled Prophecy" in the next 4-6 weeks with ARCs ready to roll out for the 2nd book, "Revelations." Shortly thereafter, "Revelations" will be ready for pre-order AND the third and final book in the series, "Redemption" will be ready for ARCs at that time.
By the holiday season, I hope to have a boxset with all three ready to roll out.
In the meantime, be on the lookout for a FREE short story, "Robin Hood: Thief of Hearts," featuring a supporting character from the Greylyn series -- a wolf shifter who you see in the first book, but officially meet in the second book. Adeline has her own story to tell and it is HOT!
Thanks for your patience. I promise the series, and the short story, will be worth the wait.

The Road to Rekindled Prophecy AND a Giveaway
My debut novel, Rekindled Prophecy (Book 1 of the Greylyn the Guardian Angel series), released last week (11/19/2019)! To say I was ecstatic would be an understatement.
The story bounced around in my head for years while I dealt with life (went to college, worked my @$$ off for years to make it in the corporate world, got married, had kids, raised and still raising kids, moved, etc, etc, etc…). Took about a year to write the first draft as I only had a couple hours here, few minutes there, weeks where I had no time to write, and sometimes just general procrastination and making up excuses. Writer’s block may have occurred from time to time, but mostly I got in my own way. A couple dozen draft revisions later and it was ready to leave my hands and get some honest feedback.
Writing is scary. For me, it’s like pouring out your soul onto paper. That part is fine, but then giving it over to someone else to read? That’s terrifying. But I finally did it! I joined a wonderful group online through Scribophile where authors critique each other’s work in exchange for critiques of their own work. I found an amazing community of authors/reviewers within Scribophile who I love and adore for their honesty, their knowledge, their friendship, and their support. If not for them I would never have gathered up the courage to take the next step…querying.
Querying agents and publishers is a mind and soul numbing experience. Well, eventually numbing. At first, terrifying and heartbreaking as rejection emails come in and no responses from others. Some asked for full manuscripts and then I’d wait weeks, months. There were even a couple agents I waited for over a year to hear back from. Heart-wrenching process. Thankfully, I had my author friends from Scrib to bolster my mood and confidence so I kept going.
***Seriously, if you are an author, get on Scribophile! http://www.scribophile.com***
Now, where as I? Oh yes, the process! While querying I remained busy. I drafted Books 2 and 3 of the series. I edited and proofread for other authors (and some high school seniors looking for help crafting their college application essays). During this time I was asked to join with other amazing romance authors for two short story anthologies. While my series is more of a PG-13 rating (some cussing, violence, and some romance but nothing explicit), there stories were definitely more for mature audiences. If you’d like (and your over 18 years of age), please check out the anthologies. One even introduces one of the characters from the Greylyn series, but we won’t truly meet her until Book 2.
Finally, I had just about decided to punch the Amazon publish button myself or archive the files for the series and walk away from it for awhile when I received the most blessed news. A publisher was interested and asked for the full manuscript. Next thing I know they called me (yes, an actual phone call, not email) and they wanted to publish my book! Thank you Zimbell House Publishing for believing in me and my story. (side note: The day after I signed with Zimbell, a literary agent I had queried several months back emailed me and was interested in signing me! After a desert of interest, all of a sudden…people wanted my story!)
Moral of the story — authors, keep on writing, keep on querying, keep on keeping on, and keep on believing!
That brings us to last Tuesday, 11/19/2019 when Rekindled Prophecy released in hard cover and ebook! To say it was one of the best days of my life, would be an understatement (I think I’m repeating myself now). It was also one of the scariest days of my life. For now, the story is no longer just mine. It belongs to the fantasy and paranormal reading world now! It belongs to you! It is my gift to you, as I believe every author who writes even one line gifts the world with their talent.
