CW: Suicidal ideation *** SPOILERS BELOW *** It’s strange to think that this book is finally finished. It feels like forever ago that I started writing The Album…probably because it was. I definitely thought that writing Gabriel’s version would be...

I’m…having a moment. When I published The Album in March, I was astounded that there was no category for rock star romance on Amazon. I mean, it’s a huge niche. But it had no actual category, which was crazy to me. As you all know, I went right ahead...

So, I had an interesting experience this week. It was a discussion in an author group about homemade vs. professional covers for books. I shared my experience with The Album’s cover, and I thought it might be fun to write a blog and show the whole process. The...

So, I rewrote The Album…again. 🙈 It’s so much better, though. Like, it was so bad that after going through it, I’m astounded it has a 4-star rating on Amazon. How was I not being reamed out for all the grammatical errors? Let alone, the horrendous storytelling!...

Kind of. Over 15,000 words were written back in 2008, when I initially had the idea for the story. So, I decided on the 1st of September that I was going to write and submit Dreams for the Wattys. With a deadline for submission of the 30th of September, that...

Okay, so…wow, I have things to say. First, let’s do fun stuff! The cover of The Baby was revealed on Instagram! I sliced the picture into twelve posts and posted four a day over three days to end up with the full cover showing in the connected pictures....

See, I really should update this blog more often than once a month! I’ll try and post all of the latest newsletters this weekend, so you can use them to catch up. I can’t believe that my last blog was before I finished The Baby, so I have a lot to tell...

It’s been a long time since we’ve talked. Okay, this is silly, I know you guys aren’t my diary. I realised that I haven’t updated this blog in…well…approximately a million years. If I was taking a guess. Let me peer back to see...

The Wedding comes out tomorrow. That’s so insane. If you had told me back in February, when I was preparing to release The Album, that I would be releasing The Wedding on the 6th of June 2020, I would have told you that you were insane. I also would never have...
