Release Date for Bewitching the Vampire, Giveaway, and More!

Saturday, May 20, 2023

Paranormal and Contemporary Freebies, Last call for Giveaway, and more!

For my paranormal readers, there's a ton of freebies, including my vampire romances, Ironic Sacrifice and Unleashing Desire, each focusing on a different vampire twin hero over HERE!

For my contemporary romance readers, there's a ton of free contemporaries including my heavy metal romance, Rock God, over HERE!

GIVEAWAY STILL GOING!:

Some of you saw last week that I joined LitRing's Author Spring Fling giveaway, however there were apparently some technical difficulties, like some authors--including me--having the Amazon follow link not work. Thanks to your help, I was able to report this to LitRing and they fixed it. They did advise that you need to click "complete action" for your entries to go through, and if that's not working, clear your cache.

Anyway, they have two $30 Amazon giftcards up for grabs. This one doesn't require any newsletter signups, just Amazon follows. Go HERE to enter!

Status of my Audio Book fund.

Many of my readers have requested my books in audio, but I don't quite have the funds to hire a narrator. Why not ACX, or other royalty-share programs? Because with those, you don't get rights to your work for several years and I've been burned by that road before. Which book will I do first in audio? The top contenders are Wrenching Fate (Brides of Prophecy, Book 1) and Kissing Vicious (Hearts of Metal, book 1). However, His Final Girl, (B Mine, book 1) is another contender. I'll be surveying my supporters to see which one they want first!

Go HERE to support my goal!

Alternately, I have a store where I have signed paperbacks and ebooks up for grabs for lower prices than you'll see anywhere else. Some ebooks are even free with the option to tip.

SOUP FOR MY FAMILY!

This will probably be the last time I mention morel mushrooms for the year. We got most of our haul dehyrated, but there were still a bunch that didn't fit in the dehydrator, so I made concentrated soup. These six vaccuum-sealed bags will be frozen. And each should be able to make a gallon of soup! I will use some to use for sauce on cheese tortellini or in stroganoff too.

Weekend Plans:

I'm hopefully going to be doing a lot of writing. And should have a release date for Bewitching the Vampire next week. I will also be watching Fangoria's Chainsaw Awards (like the Oscars, but for Horror). It's gonna be on Shudder on Sunday.

Anyway, that's all for now and I hope you all have an amazing weekend!

Until next time,

Virtual Hugs!

Fun with mushrooms, giveaway, and my new favorite movie!

Not the trippy kind that some of my book characters like to indulge in, but morel mushrooms, which are also often mentioned in my books and grow in most forested areas in the northern hemisphere. They are weird-looking and like to hide, but they're delicious. Every spring we go up in the mountains to hunt them.

We ended up scoring three pounds of them this season!

Then we first make an epic stuffed leg of lamb. It's a two day process, but oh, so worth it.

Then we put some in the dehydrator to save to use throughout the year and use the rest to make a huge vat of cream of morel soup. We enjoy a bowl then vaccuum seal and freeze portions to have later as soup, or as sauce on pasta. Yum!

GIVEAWAY:

I joined LitRing's Author Spring Fling giveaway. They have two $30 Amazon giftcards up for grabs. This one doesn't require any newsletter signups, just Amazon follows. Go HERE to enter!

Freebies:

There's still a couple days left to grab free copies of a ton of enemies-to-lovers romances if you missed out.

Go HERE!

Also, with how different Heart Throb looks from the others, I am wondering if I should change the covers of my Hearts of Metal books. But that's something I'll worrry about when I catch up on other stuff.

Other news:

WTF, Amazon?!!

So aside from letting in a glut of AI content, I heard that Amazon jacked up the price of Kindle Unlimited.

I can guarantee that the authors won't see a penny of that increase. Especially since their revenue was cut recently.

But Kobo Plus just expanded to the US, so I recommend checking them out!

Movie Rec:

OMG, you guys, I am in LOVE with the movie, Renfield. Nic Cage is Dracula, Nicolas Hoult is Renfield, it's like a cross between a horror comedy and a superhero movie and it has a realistic portrayal of toxic relationships with an abuser.

I loved it so much that I had the movie theater reserve the poster for me and I preorderd the DVD/BluRay combo pack.

It's streaming on Vudu and a few other places, but if it's still in your local theater, I highly recommend it!

Anyway, I'm off to work more on Bewitching the Vampire, my horror short, and of course, The Graveyard Girls.

Until next time,

Virtual Hugs!
