“When’s That Book Coming?” Fall 2017 Edition

What’s New

Hauntings: Two Tales of the Paranormal released in ebook and print back in June.

Tiger’s Memory, a West prequel novella, launched at Patreon for the new West Is Best Club. It won’t be done until next year at the rate rewrites are pushing the wordcount up, but West fans are several chapters into it now.

 

What’s Upcoming

Ashford’s Ghost, originally in Hauntings, will be out next Tuesday as a single download (currently submitted for preorder a few places like Kobo, Kindle, iBooks, Nook, and Payhip, with others coming later in the week).

This is exactly the same novella that was in Hauntings. I owe some Patrons of Snark the final ebook, and I thought it would be fitting to release on Halloween.

It does have the first three chapters of the third Livi novel in the back, which is due out next year.

No, I do not have a release date yet. The (very, very) rough draft is done at 95K words. It needs heavy revision, which I’m hoping to start next month. It might need a few more passes after that, it’s seriously a mess. Best case scenario, it can release spring 2018, otherwise we’re looking at summer.

I’m sorry, I know that sucks. But I’d rather take the time to do some heavy revision and give you a book that’s the best I can make it than rush and publish something subpar. When I have a solid draft, I’ll have it up for preorder immediately and post the date on my upcoming page.

December 1 I’ll be posting a Livi Christmas short story for Patrons of Snark, and it’ll also be a 99c download at Payhip around then. It’s not a wild adventure, just Livi’s first Christmas in the villa. If you’re a Livi/West fan, you may dig it. (No, there is no kissing. There is just the Best Christmas Gift Ever.)

 

What I’m Working On

  • Livi #3 revision.
  • A really terrible gothic romance just for me.
  • Tiger’s Memory.
  • Some short stories that I am not telling you about in case I don’t get them done but if I do, they’ll release in time for Valentine’s Day.

When I get Livi #3 revised, I’m going to start another revision of #4 (I’m on the second draft–I held off polishing it up because I wasn’t sure what would need to change accommodating the new book), and then I’m going to dive into #5 which I am super looking forward to, as it deals with the aftermath of the fourth book and omg I loves me some angst.

Obligatory if you like the books, please leave a review and/or tell a friend, thank you, you’re awesome!
