How Not to Court Your Human Captive – She’s Here!

Check out the prologue for Court at the end of this post!

When a human’s fury meets a demon’s fire, hatred isn’t the only thing to ignite.

The first in the Falling for Demons series is here, and so far its reception has been more than I could possibly ask for! ARC readers have loved it, and of course I love it too, and I can’t wait for you to be immersed in the monstrously cozy world Laura Winter and I have created. You can read the content warnings here.

The second Falling for Dem...

2025 Mid-Year Update

Well, we’re halfway through the year and it’s arguably been one of the worst ones for the US in a while. We’re utterly falling apart, treating our fellow humans like animals, and being “oligar-culled” as I’ve just started saying meaning a few really wealthy assholes are gleefully wishing many of us to our deaths so they can hoard a few more bucks and enslave the rest of us when the time comes.

Sorry, that was really gloomy, but it’s just the state of things. Please call your representatives a...

2025 First Quarter Update

I haven’t blogged in SO LONG, but I’ve had some ideas lately, and I want to use this space more in the upcoming year (and I need to completely overhaul my website!), so I figured I would start with a gigantic update most of which already came out in my newsletter.

Taming Wyverns on Hiatus and Other Bad News

So, bad news to end the year on, but Taming Wyverns & Other Wild Beasts is on indefinite hiatus. Some of you may remember that I originally planned to release this standalone on December 1st, 2024 and then I pushed that back to February 1st, 2025. The reason then, the book just wasn’t ready, is the same now, but more, and it’s extended to me: I’m just not ready. In fact, I’ve become the opposite of ready—unready, or rather more colloquially, burnt out.

It’s not writing’s fault. I love writing...

Fall 2024 Update

It’s been quite some time since I’ve posted much about me, so I’m just going to dump here along with some bookish updates because screaming into the void of my blog used to help immensely long ago when I had no one to talk to, so let’s see if it does the trick again!

The Bound to Fall Audiobook is Here!

And it’s just as sweet as I’d hoped! Ellen Quay and Seth Podowitz do an amazing job bringing Celeste, Reeve, and all the other inhabitants of Briarwyck to life in the first of Villains &...

Foes to Flames has a cover! We enlisted the artistry of Fox and Raven Studio to illustrate our enemies to lovers anthology, and I must say, it’s remarkable!
