Happy Holidays everyone! Farewell 2023 and a big, excited hello to 2024!
My New Year’s resolution is to try to find a way to get back into writing! Since the school year started, my writing time had pretty much dwindled away as we dealt with dealing with new routines with my kids’ new schools, family health issues, and managing kid extra-curricular activities and the volunteering that goes with them! My writing muse pretty much gave up, but I’m hoping to coax her to get back to work in 2024!
Unfortunately, the rest of my 2023 goals had pretty much halted after releasing my paranormal romance Soul Keeper. I was determined to get Mara and Rai’s story out, and I’m so glad I was able to do it! Doing that used up all my writing bandwidth, so I wasn’t able to work on my other stories, including by YA paranormal academy series. Originally, I was planning on having Liz’s duet out in Spring 2024, but now I’m anticipating Spring 2025.
As of now, I’m not anticipating any new releases for 2024 unless my writing and home life balance shifts back to writing. I keep saying I’ll update Jane and Gray’s covers, so I’m still keeping that as a 2024 goal along with getting some paperback companions to go along with my ebooks! I do hope I can work on some drafts and have complete first drafts for Liz and Ryken’s Duet and Rose and Blue’s novella so that I can release all three in 2025. I’m also hoping to have some rough drafts and outlines for at least four more books: two adult paranormal romances under Ellie Parin and two more in my young adult Andersen Grimm Academy of Elites.
I hope to have more of an update in the next few months after I have a few weeks to see how writing is going!
