Hi all! I have an update about my novel The Bone Key. As of October 1st, the publishing rights are officially reverting back to me. What Does This Mean Now’s the time to grab a physical copy while remaining stock is available. One those are gone, this specific edition won’t be printed again. This also means the book will temporarily step back into the shadows, but the story of my owl witch coven is definitely not over!

Didn’t summer just start? How is it almost over? Okay…let’s be honest. I wish it was fall all year-round, so though I may lament the end of Dollar Drink Days (I know…), I’m ready for cooler temperatures! Still…there’s a lot going on. Now that I’ve completed all my courses for the Editorial Skills Certificate, I’m back writing. Here’s where things stand:

It’s July 7. Today was the date I’d set to finish the first draft of my novella. I haven’t worked on it for 10 days, and before that, I took a two-week break to edit the Reaper novel again. Which means…I’m a few weeks behind. I used to look at instances like this as a failure, even if the deadline is self-imposed.

I did it - I cut just over 10k from the Reaper book, so it’s back in the query trenches I go…even though I’m already in there with the 2nd owl witch book. I love this book so much! And I feel these revisions, even if they were only mostly for wordiness and style, made it better. So I need to keep hope alive that it will find a home somewhere.
