Today I released the ninth Firmament book, Intoxication, and with this release I have reached two important milestones: 1. I’ve made it to the halfway point of my eighteen-book series, and 2. I’ve released two Firmament books in a single calendar year, which I’ve been intending to do for over a decade but have never managed until now. Both are…
Another month, another fun giveaway event! I’ve been having so much fun doing these promotional events with my friends and fellow authors, and I’m particularly excited about this one. This time, instead of giving away the books themselves, we are going to be featuring books in a particular category and giving away a basket full of bookish goodies! What are…
Hello readers! Or should I say “listeners”? I’ve written before about why audiobooks count as real books, and now I’m here to let y’all know about a giveaway of four audiobook codes, including one for my book Firmament: Radialloy! And while I haven’t yet read the other three books, I have read some of all three authors’ other works and…
In case you didn’t notice the WIP progress bar on the sidebar over there, I FINISHED the first draft of Intoxication (Firmament Book 9) today! I’m really proud of my consistency in getting it done, and while it definitely needs work, I’m overall happy with how it turned out. In honor of this momentous occasion, I found an excerpt that…
If you’ve been listening to my podcast, you know that I finished the first draft of book eight in the Firmament series recently; a book called Humanoid. Now that Firmament: Eleftheria is complete on Kindle Vella, I’m ready to start thinking about revisions on Humanoid. I think it’s actually one of my better first drafts. The ending definitely needs work,…
For a very long time, Firmament: Eleftheria, book seven in the Firmament series, was sitting at somewhere around fifty percent on the “WIP progress bar” on the side of this website. In fact, I started writing it in 2017 as my NaNoWriMo project for the year. I didn’t win NaNo that year, and I didn’t finish the book then or…

God’s Grace and the Homosexual Next Door: Reaching the Heart of the Gay Men and Women in Your World by Alan Chambers I bought this book many years…
I’m finally going over what I wrote of the next Firmament book, Eleftheria, and wanted to share an excerpt with you! It takes place in the first chapter of the book, after Olive (the nurse, and wife to the Surveyor‘s first engineer) has teased Andi about a boy that she thinks Andi might like. Andi is not amused, and the…
Hello, friends! Anybody else enjoying the fall weather? This pregnant mama is so grateful for the cooler weather — plus my daughter is obsessed with leaves, so this is quickly becoming her favorite season! I had a bunch of things I wanted to show you all, so I thought I would do one big linky post to get it all…
So my latest book, Firmament: No Man released last week. Things, of course, did not go smoothly, although certain aspects did, and I’m grateful. But here are just a few of the things that went wrong: 1. Worst and foremost, the Firmament series website is down, and has been for about a year now. We have investigated and tried to…
