Hi friends! I’m so excited to announce my upcoming book launch party. For those of you in the area, please join us! It will be held at the Atholville Library on September 26th at 6:30pm. There will be snacks, cake and of course, BOOKS!

So it’s here; the Blood and Champagne cover art! I cannot tell you all how excited this makes me. Blood and Champagne has taken quite some time to come to be (a year and a half, to be precise) however life has a funny way of getting in the way, what with having babies and all.

I’m also working in collaboration with Nancy Power and the Atholville Library to host a book launch coming this september which should be a fun evening filled with tasty snacks and book signing! I hope to see many local faces there

So without further ado, here is the cover for the upcoming Blood and Champagne!

So here it is; the Blood and Champagne Book Blurb! (For those of you wondering, a book blurb is the short description found on the back of a book.)

Forced to come to terms with the truth behind her existence, Alexis struggles between what she wants and what is right.

However being a hellhound is only part of the problem; with dead students popping up around every street corner and increasing gaps in her memory, Alexis begins to put her own innocence into question.

A rift with Lucas only complicates matters further and Alexis finds herself forging new alliances that could change her destiny in more ways than one.

So I’m elated to announce that the second instalment of the Bloodlines Series, Blood and Champagne, is officially COMPLETE! This has been a long time in the making and I appreciate everyones patience and understanding more than you will ever know. I now begin the (many) run throughs as well as the tedious task of proof reading.

Again, thank you to all the fans that have stuck by me. I hope you all like it

Cheers!

Today is a fine day. Blood and Champagne has officially reached 40 000 words, which means it’s that much closer to being finito. Since my novels tend to run short, under 60 000 words generally speaking, this is fantastic news considering my deadling is April 1st.

Yay me!

Today, Chapter 30 was typed to life. It’s getting close, people. Real close.

I’m happy to report the second instalment of the Bloodlines Series is finally nearing an end seeing as many of you have been waiting for so long.

Until then, I hope fans will continue to be patient with me. I promise, the sequel is worth the wait!

So between running after a soon-to-be four year old and changing the baby’s diapers, I have been trying my hardest to complete the upcoming sequel Blood and Champagne. So far, we’re about 3/4 of the way in, with me typing out up to 10 Chapters a week. The second installement of the Bloodlines Series is a transitional piece and I hope fans enjoy the ride. Soon will be the cover shoot, and as soon as I can get my butt in gear, hopefully the promotional shoot as well.

Ok, so life happened, I had a baby, and I didn’t write much for a few months. Then, I forgot my user ID… which meant I couldn’t log into the blog! It took FOREVER, but at long last I have returned! And better yet, Blood and Champagne should be ready for editing by April!

So a few weeks ago I went back to my high school to talk to some lovely senior students about Silver and Stone and the Bloodlines series. It was so cool to get feedback from these kids, and I had a blast answering all of their in depth questions (there were many)
