So if you or someone you know has wanted to read the series but has been unable to, that’s about to change! Now that Bloom owns the series, it will be available on all platforms–including Nook and Apple (links below). But I mean, if you *want* to, who am I to stop you? Hehe. I will be taking down The Bargainer omnibus in the near future as well, so this is your official notice! I’ve had a few people ask how different the books will be now that they’ve been edited, and though I’ve made a lot of tweaks to the writing, the series will read nearly the same, so if you’ve read it before, you won’t need to read it again. I’ll post more soon on my 2023 schedule and all things book related, but until then, have a great rest of your year!Ĭover re-reveal day! I’m beyond excited to get to share the new covers for my Bargainer series! Fangirlish has exclusively revealed the new covers for the entire series and you can see them here: īloom’s new covers will replace the old ones over the next few months.

That all being said, I can’t wait for all the excitement (and books!) the next year will bring. Which-and this won’t come as a shock to those of you who’ve been doing this for a while-is freaking HARD work. Actually, overall this year has been me taking agency in my own personal growth. And for me, taking agency has meant not letting someone else’s bad mood become mine, not playing the victim to avoid accountability, and not being a doormat or a martyr for the sake of politeness, peer pressure, or some societal construct. But, this year brought me so much personal growth, the biggest of which is realizing I have agency over everything in my life, which, no duh, but *knowing* that is different from *living* that. 🤷🏼‍♀️ It happens, and I’m a people pleasure, so it’s a hard habit to break.

I think this year I was overstimulated, overdrawn, and a little too emotionally vulnerable to the opinions of strangers. 2022 taught me that sometimes you have to make your circle small when it comes to what you can accomplish. The older I get, and the longer I’m in this career, the more I realize I need times like these to turn off my writer brain and just exist in the moment for a bit.Īnd now for that grand old wrap up. In case it isn’t obvious, I’ve been out of the office for the holidays, so if I’m quiet on here, this is why. They’ve been holding out on me with these vacation properties. Apparently they each have one on this side of the bridge. Swipe for evidence of them fleeing-slash-leading me to their respective castles. This is a picture of my kids running away from me after I tried to get them to smile for a picture.
