• A New Pup, A Tickle Kink, Some Tentacles…and More Coming Soon!

    I thought I’d share a bit with you guys about what’s coming up this fall…because somehow it’s already October. I’m demanding to know where September went, but so far, I’ve been ignored. I want my money back on September because it didn’t last as long as it should have. But since someone stole at least part of September from me, I’m slightly behind (not a surprise to anyone) and that’s going to adjust what I thought October would look like. So here’s the timeline for fall releases so far… (Some are firm and some are maybes) I’ve also got some shorts and fun stuff to sprinkle in there. Austin wants to set up a primal play space and the littles […]

    Writing New Kinks, What’s Coming Soon, and Your Input!

    I love getting a chance to write about new kinks and fun things that I hadn’t realized could be erotic. Sometimes I look at a kink and I’m like “oh, I get it” and other times I’m like “tell me more…I’m not sure I understand” and sometimes my characters get chatty and explain all about why it’s fabulous. Sometimes they just shrug and say, “I don’t know but it turns me on.” I like it when they can explain, but it can be interesting to write even when they don’t get it. That’s when we both get to figure it out as we put their story down on paper. Writing another lactation kink book has been so much fun (Taking […]

    Summer 2024 Plans

    You have no idea how many times I’ve rewritten my release plans for the next couple of months. Over and over and over isn’t even enough of an explanation.

    Part of the problem was I let myself get too worn out in the first couple of months of the year. Family drama and overscheduling myself and my kids were super distracting (no surprise there to anyone with kiddos no matter how old they are). The end result was just a tired author who wasn’t sure what she wanted to do.

    So I rewrote plans at least five different times but Sage would probably tell you it was a lot more than that.

    Coming Soon: Website Early Access eBooks! – Answering Your Questions

    If you’re in other author groups or following social media, you might have seen a lot of people leaving KU in the last year or so. I don’t plan to take my books out of KU completely at this time (because I really understand how important it is to a lot of readers) but I do want to start experimenting with other ways for readers to access my books that don’t make me beholden to Amazon and their payment practices (and general shenanigans lol) So Sage (best PA ever) and I brainstormed a lot last year, and after going back and forth over ideas and schedules, we decided to try doing early access on my website first. This will start […]

    What’s Coming in 2024?

    I love that you guys have started messaging me and finding the cutest ways to ask about what’s coming up next year. It makes me smile and it makes the crazy number of hours I’ve spent pouring over the calendar the past month worth it. So thank you. And as part of my thanks, I wanted to give you a look at what should be coming out in the first quarter of next year and what I’m hoping to get done later in the year. –Starting in January, we’re going to have a story about the L and L pups, Ender’s Curiosity. It’s the beginning of a series of standalone stories about the pups at Leashes and Lace, and it […]

    2023 Personal Year Wrap Up

    This year has had some ups and downs, but the major thing that sticks out to me is that both of my kids are now at college. It’s been just the three of us for so long that it was weird at first, but not in a bad way, necessarily. Except for the times my ex was deployed—he was Army—this has been the only point where I’ve ever lived on my own for any length of time. I have to laugh because even during those deployments I had a dog at the very least…so I still wasn’t alone. I know everyone sees change differently and I know that for a lot of people having kids going off to college is […]
