Greetings!

Enjoying your summer?

This will be a busy one for me: I’m preparing Shadows & Ash for publication! That’s right—the second book of the Shadowless vampire series is nearly here!

Thank you, readers, for your continued support and patience.

Here’s what I will be working on these coming weeks:

• Final line editing (ensuring clear, consistent, captivating prose)

• Final proofreading (checking for tpyos — oops!)

• Typesetting

• Book cover — that’s an important one

• Writing copy for the back cover

• Putting all the above together

• Marketing. I’m still bewildered by this. Can’t it just be enough to have finished the book?

I’m aiming for an October release. And in the next issue of The Scrapple I will share the opening scene.

Enjoy your summer!
