I've spent the last few days hard at work on my next book, which I hope to have published on KU by the end of January.

I'm excited about this upcoming book series, and can't wait to share the cover with you soon!

Our Christmas plans with extended family have fallen through due to the frigid weather we're having here in Indiana, where my WTForecast app currently states that it is "stupid cold out." They're right.

That's improved from yesterday's which said "It's as cold as my heart outside" or the day before that, which informed me that it was "so cold out, you can see people fart". That just paints a picture, doesn't it, LOL?

I'm using the extra time at home to continue writing on my next book. I'm excited for this one to kick off an MC series, with 4-5 books planned at this point. I'm on the fence about a book possibly planned for one of the characters. We'll see how I feel when it's his turn to be featured.

If you are celebrating this holiday season, I hope it's a joyous one for you. For anyone reading this, take care and be kind to yourself.

I actually got over 4,000 words written yesterday on Jagger's story, and cleaned up the first few chapters a bit, so I'm happy with that progress. His brother, Rome, actually stayed pretty quiet yesterday, although I did make a few notes for his story along the way.

I took a writing break last night and read for a while. I'd found a great book shown on TikTok and downloaded it, all excited for a dark, twisty, possessive Mafia read, only to open the download on my Kindle to find the dreaded "100%" showing, instead of page 1. I'd already read this one...bummer. I'm so bad about remembering titles and book covers. Since I didn't really remember reading it, I decided it must not have been that great after all, so I picked something else instead.

The last two months have been filled with highs and lows, joy and heartbreak, and stress...lots and lots of stress. I published my first book on Oct. 29th, followed by my second on Nov. 18th. The happiness I felt was tempered by the heartbreak of losing my dad. My father passed away in early November after years of ill-health. I'd thought I was ready. He'd been in hospice care at home for months, and dementia had essentially taken him from us long before that. So, I'd thought I was prepared. I was wrong. It's hard knowing that the first man who ever loved me, the man I've spent my entire life loving, is no longer here.

In the midst of all this, I'm trying to work on my third book, which will kick off a new series. The men of the 5th Circle Guardians MC will be coming to Kindle Unlimited in January, if I can get the characters in the first book to cooperate. Jagger and Molly aren't the problem. It's Jagger's brother Rome who keeps causing the distraction. He's the hero of the second book, and he keeps popping into my head every time I try to work on Jagger's story. The books are interconnected, in a sense, so Jagger has to come first. Sorry, Rome, you're just going to have to wait your turn.

If you celebrate this holiday season, I hope it's filled with love, laughter, family, and friends. Stay safe, and make sure you find time to take care of yourself. Find a quiet corner and a good book. A little chocolate might help, too.
