The furthest I've been (from home) was Japan, for a two-week school trip. Otherwise, I've popped in and out of the United States. Since I'm also an army brat, I've lived in various provinces. Want to learn more about me? Ask away. #LearnAboutMe #QnA

I found this wooden decoration at Michaels Craft Store, brought it home and coloured it. Best part? It lights up! I don't know if I'll have room on my table at events to display it, but I'll bring it along anyway.

This or That? Multiple POV is my favourite, I like reading the point of view from each of the two main characters. #ThisOrThat

No changes, but I'm working on it. I only have three months left and six tiles to fill this card.

Don't know what my books are about? Have a quick peek at the main trope. You'll find that opposites attract is my go-to romance trope (not intentional).

Between work and sleep, I'm trying to get all the words rolling around my head onto paper. There are so many stories I want to write. I'm nearing the end of Reaper Undercover, book 2 in my Reaper trilogy. All I really need is the cover, and then I can start announcing its release date. #WIP

Exactly one month from now, I'll be in Kanata for the annual Can-Con. This isn't my usual book event, but I'm still excited to attend. I'll have all my usual stuff: books, puzzles, stickers, and of course, all the free swag. #ottawa #convention #ottawaconvention #cancon #bookevent

Only one event is planned to finish off my 2026 year. 2027 is starting to grow. I'm waiting on approval or denial for a few submission forms to help build my calendar. So far, I'm super excited for where next year will take me. #bookevent

Now out: Witch Troubles Blurb: A witch and a vampire working together? It’s unprecedented. The two beings falling in love is even rarer. For centuries they’ve been attracted to one another. When her past resurfaces and causes chaos around them, their young love will be put to the ultimate test.

This or That? Tough choice. I think I prefer a book as a TV show, like Bridgerton or Netflix's version of City of Bones #ThisOrThat

There have been some unforeseen circumstances creep up with the creators of All Things Bookish and Fantasy Forum in September and November respectively. Unfortunately, both these events have been cancelled. Can-Con in October is still a go. Stay tuned. I'm building my 2027 event calendar too.

This or This? Hmm, tough call. A cliffhanger could indicate that there's a next book. While a HEA satisfies something deep inside. #ThisOrThat

After this workshop, you will leave with a clearer sense of which tools and techniques are most likely to serve you, and why the best marketing strategy is always the one you will actually sustain. www.eventbrite.ca/e/finding-th...
