Hi, beautiful people! School's back in, and I'm adjusting to life as a hardworking teacher with a family who also writes.
So, I am...
TIRED - Red-eye tired - Can't get enough sleep tired
But, that doesn't mean I've totally given up writing. In fact, I've recently finished a short story to be included in Winter Magic, a new anthology by Extasy Books releasing during the holidays.
My story?
It's Challenge the Sun. I bet you'd like to read the blurb right?
Nod. Nod.
Nod.
Okay...here goes!
5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1
Dimitri Akiyama arrives in Louisville, Kentucky with his brother and his brother’s mate to celebrate the Christmas holiday, and he’s not happy about it.
Little does he know he’s about to get his own Christmas gift in the form of a human hair consultant named Eric McAlary.
The problem?
Eric’s injury from a military past and Dimitri’s belief that a Tengu demon can’t have a mate who’s broken.
It will take a little intervention to help these two find a love so great, they will challenge the sun.
I loved writing this one and am beyond excited about its release.
What am I working on now?
Broken Promises, Kristoff's story. After that? Well, it's the next installment in the merman series. Then, the gargoyle book I've been waiting to get back to.
Unicorns...
Oh, and I've been playing with ideas of a unicorn. Any thoughts? Well, I keep running into them, and I think I have some ideas, some tantalizing, battle-worthy ideas. Let's make that happen.

Facebook blocked me from posting in groups for a few days. Now, the places I posted my book were book groups where I usually post, and it was the same post I'd been doing for a while. No more, no less. Facebook wants to make money, and they want me to buy advertising space. Well, I'm not making that type of money, so I've started looking elsewhere.
Namely, MeWe.
