I've been missing for the past couple of weeks because I've been reflecting on this bad ass journey we call life, and how my career fits into it. Lately I've been dealing with an overwhelming sense of dread when it comes to putting books out, and it took me a while to realize what it was that was stopping me from putting out my normal amount of books.

I've signed on for projects that I simply didn't want to write, in interest of my readers. I'd chosen projects that you would all like, with disregard for my creative process.

Don't get me wrong, I love you all so so so much! And I know I'm the one who set the preorder in the first place, but after a lot of reflection I've noticed some things.

1.) Setting pre-orders gives me anxiety and doesn't allow me to go with the flow of life. The preorders themselves give me the anxiety that keeps me from writing words.

2.) I've set preorders for some awesome books, that I know readers would love, but my brain and heart just don't want to write.

Those two things have set me up for inconsistency in my career, as well as led to dissapointment on both sides.

And from this point forward the only preorders I'm setting are for series continuations, and they'll be set at the maximum amount they can be ahead and simply moved forward when the book is completed.

All standalones and new projects will only be put up for preorder when the book is completely finished, or be live released both to help with my mental health, but to also be transparent with you all about what I'm capable of.

Life on this floating rock in the middle of space is a trippy enough experience, and I've made a vow to stop making it harder for myself.

From here on out, I promise to be nothing but the most authentic version of myself.

I appreciate all of you so so much.
