Yes I am still around.
But why haven't I posted? In THREE YEARS
Because real life took center stage. I had to put my writing on slow (not really hold, but my output was lowered)

Basically, this is what happened;

I switched jobs.Worked mainly overnight which screwed up my health.That job was stressful, but worked at it for almost 2 years. Let go.Got another job. Daylight hours, but broke my foot.That job stopped when the location closed.Moved.New job, new career. Decided this time to find a job where it would be easier to write.So far working out.I moved from retail to becoming a baker. That's been a great move.
And my writing?Finally getting back on track.I did need to find a new editor. But now I have Surgeon (the last of the Coiree Guardians novel), a fantasy novel, two other novels related to the Coiree Guardians, and a rural horror novel all waiting in line to be edited. So I haven't been lazy. I didn't have the time in the last three years to stay on top of all of it.
Will I be back?Hopefully, sooner than later.
