And the second book is out!

Yup, Red Sean’s Revenge is available! At the same time, the kindle version of A Caribbean Spell is on sale for 99 cents and the print is up on Amazon!

Gods, I’ve been busy. Set up some giveaway on Goodreads, and one on FreeBookFridays… And I’m still pushing to get the print version of The Pirate Circus out before the end of the month…

And contracting with my cover artist to work on the cover for book number three, The French Gambit. Doing first round edits on The French Gambit and pre-first round edits on book four, which I’ve decided to call Magic’s Hostage.

And somewhere in here, I want to start working on my Aliens Just Want Cats story…

You know, life was simpler when I had an agent and let her do all the work. Having editors give me assignments. A cover questionnaire…yet…this doing it myself is fun. I like having the final say on things. I like knowing whatever is out there is on me. I don’t like trying to figure out how to promote, what to spend money on, what to not spend money on.

Sometimes I’m wrong, sometimes I’m right. I have a feeling I’ll know in a few years.

Meanwhile…Red Sean! Dastardly man, evil to the core. No redeeming features. He lives for vengeance, born to it. He thrives on the blood of his victims painting the deck red. Oh, yeah. This guy is bad. And man, does he bring darkness to the world of Jake and Miranda.

But you know what they say, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. It also helps you see what is right in front of you…

This was the second full length book I wrote and I broke so many rules in it. Because I didn’t know there were rules. Life was easier when I didn’t know the rules. Writing rules are a PITA. I’m not talking about the grammarly things, or spelling things right or using the right sort of dialogue tags.

I’m talking about the other rules. Internal conflict. Outside conflict. Don’t kill the dog. Don’t go too far with what you do to your heroes. The black moment…the first act, the second, the third, the HEA… I reveled in breaking rules…ah, the days of running free and unfettered by the rules, some written, some simply understood…

Of all the rules, what would you love to break?
