As always, thank you so much for reading, and i'll see you next update!

Hey everyone! I know it has been a while since the last time I have written here. I have been having a lot of trouble with Meta letting me post links, so it's been really hard to do any promoting or share these blog posts. I just sort of gave up after a while of fighting.

But that's not really something I do, give up.

But onto the real topic of this blog post, audiobooks! I have been in the process of getting my books made into audiobooks for months now, and it is finally in a place where I can talk about it. I am working together with the wonderful narrator Avery Caris, which is the romance pseudonym for her award-winning name Stephanie Willing. She is very very talented and I am so excited to share my stories with her and now with all of you in audio form!

Audiobooks have always been close to my heart. Growing up, it was a lifeline for me to listen to books instead of struggling to read them. Also, I feel a story comes alive in a way it can't when it is heard audibly instead of just reading it.

I hope to get these books out to you by December, so keep an eye out for the audiobooks for a Christmas present!!!

Yours,

Allie

Hi everyone! I have been increibly busy and have had no time to write and update you guys on my blog. However, part of what I have been busy with, aside from college, is writing more of The Funeral Director's Vampire. I am very happy that I have been able to do some work on it over the past few weeks.

Yours,

Allie

Hi everyone! I have been super busy this past week, but I did have time to write up a short story about some of the characters in The Funeral Director's Vampire! As soon as I edit it, I plan on making it available for free on my website!

Aside from that, I am off to college tomorrow, so life is going to be super busy. I will hopefully be able to continue working on my books at a steady pace, but we will have to see what happens.

Thank you for reading this!

Hi everyone! I am incredibly excited becaue my birthday is in four days! Going to be turning 18!! Then like four days later I am headed to college. Life is going to be getting super crazy, but I am still going to be trying to write my book faithfully and keep up with my social media pages and this blog. Thank you to all of you who have supported me during my writing journey! I really appreciate all of you

Yours,

Hi everyone! I am saddened to admit that I have done no work on my book this week. However I do have good reason, I am working on getting my audiobooks done and so writing have been on the back burner a little bit.

It's funny how imposter syndrome can hit you at the most random of times. I was working on some last minute things, and then I suddenly felt like my writing wasn't good enough to be made into an audiobook. Like it was a waste of time and money to go about elevating my stories to that status. Of course, I don't feel that way at this moment anymore, but I still think its important to talk about. Everyone gets imposter syndrome sometimes, and everyone has moments of feeling unworthy.

So thank you to all of you who have read my books and told me how you love it. I truly do appreciate it.

Yours,

Allie
