May has been a very slow writing month for me. A VENOMOUS WOMAN has been cooking with my beloved beta readers, who also have a lot going on in their own lives.
As many writers know, when writing is your true passion in life—your lifeblood, your cause, etc. etc.—having to sneak in writing while working a full-time day job can be a vexing and emotionally taxing experience. Nevertheless, I will press on to make my vision for the rest of my life a reality.
This month, I also loosely plotted the next books I intend to pursue traditional publication with. They are a romantasy trilogy that will be only 50% as dark as AVW and I’m sure will also undoubtedly profit from my increased skillset at the time of drafting. All I can say about this now is that it involves vampires and is being codenamed BLOOD ETCHED.
Most importantly, I am on the cusp of growing my family! In July I will be picking up a Rottweiler puppy from Idaho. This is a long-held dream of mine to have a dog I can compete in dog sports with, and Orion and I will pursue that dream together. Here is a photo of one of the puppies from the litter to round out this post! <3
