I’m Going To The Tassie Indie Author Book Fair 2023!

Are you ready for some exciting news?

I am thrilled to announce that I will be attending the Tassie Indie Author Book Fair on Saturday May 13th! If you’re in the Hobart area, come down to Brooke St Pier from 10am-3pm to meet me and grab a signed copy of my paperbacks.

This event is a celebration of Tasmanian independent authors, and I am honoured to be a part of it. There will be many talented authors in attendance, each with their unique stories and experiences to share. It’s a fantastic opportunity to discover new books, make new friends, and support the independent publishing community!

But that’s not all! I am also giving away a special surprise for anyone who comes to see me at the book fair. I won’t spoil the surprise, but I promise it’s worth the trip!

If you’re a fan of action, romance, and strong female leads, then you won’t want to miss this event. Come down to Brooke St Pier and say hello. I can’t wait to meet you, sign your books, and talk about all things reading, writing, and publishing!

And don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter to stay up-to-date on all my latest book releases, giveaways, and events. As a special thank you, when you sign up, you’ll receive a free novella called Winter Wildling, the prequel to my current revere harem high fantasy series Winter Witch. It’s the perfect way to get a taste of my writing style and get to know the characters before diving into my full-length novels.

See you at the Tassie Indie Author Book Fair!

Paranormal Short Story Collections Free For 3 Days

A few weeks ago I began an experiment that is still ongoing.

I made my two Kindle Select books, paranormal short story collections The Archive of Lost Dreams and Storm Front, free on Amazon for two days.

But I didn’t tell anyone about it, because I wanted to see how the algorithm works without publicity and if they could be discovered organically.

I’m not into marketing my books, you see. I believe that if I make them available and keep them available, someone might find what they’re looking for.

However, to continue the experiment (and because I have three days leftover) I am making them free again from 15th April to 17th April.

This time I’m telling everyone.

You can find them on Amazon.com by clicking on the covers.

Lost Dreams Cover Change

One of the perks of being an indie author is the ability to change the cover art of your books whenever you feel like it.

I’ve never been 100% happy with the original cover for The Archive of Lost Dreams because the Smashwords version, which uploaded to Barnes and Noble, Kobo, Diesel and Sony among others, was always a little blurry no matter what I did.

So I’ve changed the cover ever so slightly. It’s still got the same feel to it and it’s very similar to the original cover. I like this one better, though.

New Cover:

As a side note, I’ve temporarily unpublished The Archive of Lost Dreams and Storm Front from the Smashwords store and affiliates. They’ve been available for free there for quite some time (thanks for the downloads!), but while I was doing that, I was unable to make them free on Amazon. This gives me a chance to enroll them in Kindle Select and make them free for five days in a 3 month period. Keep a look out for the free promotions on Amazon!

Storm of Blood is on Goodreads!

Storm of Blood is on Goodreads!

Add it here.

Add iiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!

I haven’t put the cover up yet because it’s not final. Also, I put the book on Goodreads because I have been tossing back and forth on whether or not I really want to publish it. Even after paying for custom cover art and editing. Why? Because I’m not sure I want to do this self-publishing thing anymore.

This way I HAVE to publish it. Because one of the things I hate is when self-published authors put their books on Goodreads then never publish them (for whatever reason ).

I will not be one of those people.

Storm of Blood is coming. Soon.
