Anyone else feel like we're in the BAD timeline? Let's hide from it with some books!

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I'd been busy with the process of moving, which still isn't done. I've also been dealing with a huge clusterf*ck that I can't speak about yet, but when it is time, I will unleash it ALL. There's also been some good stuff, which I'll share in the "Life News" portion at the bottom. But yeah, life sucks, we've all had terrible losses, and I know I'm not the only one who's over it all. So I'm sharing some book specials and news. Both my spicy books and my spooky books. (If you're here for the horror only, scroll down!) Firstly, I'm participating in the Spicy Curvy Romance Reads feature. These all feature plus sized heroines, so you will find all genres, though from what I see, the majority appear to be contemporaries. I naturally am featuring Bewitching the Vampire, my fun enemies to lovers romance between the Lord Vampire of New Orleans and the head of the local witch coven. This one is a good one to dip your toes into my Brides of Prophecy series. Or, if you were reading the early books and life came up and you're hesitant to get to the later books because you think you need a refresher on the earlier books, don't worry. This book has you because all the main characters are completely in the dark about the main series shenanigans. Chronologically, it takes place at the same time as books 6, 7, and 8.  But yeah, in addition to the standalone spinoffs, I try to write most of the main books in such a way that you don't have to reread the previous installments to know WTF is going on. Even though this one is just a feature, I decided to do a discount, so, for a limited time, Bewitching the Vampire is $2.99 I usually list all the retailers, but I'm late getting this out, so I have em listed on the book page of my site HERE. Also, I haven't had time to let everyone know about my latest audio release, aside from the big release day announcement, which totally sucks because that probably tanked it in the algorithm. ...I hate the algorithm.

My regency vampire romance, Bite at First Sight audiobook is here and turned out fantastic, thanks to my wonderful HUMAN voice actress, Claire Glover. She did voicework on One Piece, you guys! You can get it on Audible, but if you don't want to overpay, try these retailers: Ko-fi Itch.io Curios Kobo Google Play Apple Chirp Audiobooks.com Audiobook Store Libro FM You can even request it for your library because it's on Overdrive, which goes through the Libby app! Or on Hoopla! Prefer to borrow? You can help bring this book to your local community! Open your Libby app or log into Overdrive and search for Bite at First Sight. Tap "Recommend to Library" or "Notify Me" to request that your local library system purchase a digital copy! It'll be on Barnes & Noble soon too. And Spotify in....awhile. Spotify takes forever.  When I catch up on work and my horrific life circumstances, I'm going to figure out how to make an audiobook bundle of these 3 Scandals With Bite books.  I also hope I can raise or earn the money to get started on adapting the Brides of Prophecy books into audio.  Horror News: Massacre on the Mountain is coming this month! I ordered my books and will have art and swag too. Details are on my Appearances page! The organizer also finally put out this graphic with its list of attending authors.

More authors have been announced since. As well as vendors with some awesome stuff too. Tickets are only 20 bucks and there's some cool merch too! So definitely check out the Facebook group! Other horror news: My cover artist is also making great progress on the cover for the new edition of His Scream Queen!

In other news, Highway of Haunts is coming next month! I am so excited for this one. All the preorder links are on the editor's anthology page, HERE. And like the previous anthologies, there will be a limited edition. My stories in these anthologies have no romance arc, so they're under the Brooklyn Ann Butler pen name. LIFE NEWS:  My son and I had to switch temporary housing because the situation got really bad in ways that I can't talk about yet. But we found a better place, albeit a smaller one. Then there will be no resting because we gotta get my car ready to make the trip to Mt. Hood for Massacre on the Mountain, AND I gotta get my awesome swag together, which I can't wait to show off!  And in more solemn matters, our cats have some health concerns, so between that and the car stuff, I'm going to link to the Go Fund Me. (For those new to this newsletter, this gives most of the info of what's been going on with me.) Even though I've been offline a lot, I LOVE hearing from you all. Having readers is all that gets me out of bed some days. Bye-bye until next time, and big virtual hugs! -Brooklyn A.

Help Fight Voter Suppression by getting some goodies! Plus stick it to the Zon with these sales and freebies.

Romancing the Vote auction is going on! There's something for everyone, from handmade items like scarves, hats, shawls, blankets, and jewelry, and services for authors, artists, and screenwriters, and of course, tons of books. Best of all, not everything makes you have to bid a lot of money. There are lots of "buy it now" items for all price ranges. I donated a custom book formatting service, a bundle of out of print first editions of my horror romance series, and signed copies of Her Haunted Heart (sold out), and my #romantasy, To Wed a Warrior! Now, I don't know about you, but I am tired of Amazon having a monopoly. So here are some ways to score books for a better deal than Zon's!

I've been so hard at the grindstone that I forgot to share this sale over on itch.io. Did you know they sell books too?You can get my entire Brides of Prophecy series, my Scandals With Bite Series, and both Final Couples Horror Romance books for half off! Go HERE to check out the sale. It's also the only site that has the rare covers on the Brides of Prophecy books!

And then there's the biannual sale on Smashwords! My books are 25-75% off and my short stories are free! Go HERE to get the deals and freebies.

I'm also taking part in the Free Summer Reads with Kobo Plus promo. No AI was allowed in the promotion, but I also learned that Kobo rejected a ton of AI slop books in general. Yet another reason Kobo Plus is superior to Kindle Unlimited. I featured Leaving the Shadows, a very unique shifter romance. But ALL of my books are free to read on Kobo Plus. Including my 2, soon to be 3, audiobooks! As for the promo, this one is a lot smaller than the Yolo with Kobo ones I participate in, so you won't be as overwhelmed with too many choices. I'm going to try to be in more small promos this year and see how that goes.

Wrap-up As promised, here is the link to my deviled egg recipe: https://brooklynann.blogspot.c...  Next time I will have some awesome news on my next audiobook, a cool edition of one of my horror works to show off, and hopefully good news.
