November Author Update

'Tis the season for exciting announcements!

If you want a Christmas gift idea, here are two you can get before the holidays!

And don’t forget, the All for Mage and Melody Kickstarter is in prelaunch right now. Check out the campaign to keep updated with all the exciting news headed your way! I have an almost-final draft of the cover, and there’s only so long I can keep a secret…but for now, it’s exclusively for me to stare at at least seventy times a day.

The Author Stats…

I SIGNED BOOKS AT BARNES AND NOBLE THIS MONTH!!

Honestly, that’s it. That’s the author stat. One Barnes and Noble signing, please and thank you. And I began reworking All for Mage and Melody to send to my editor in January!

I also started playing the in-world card game I’ll include in the top tiers of the Kickstarter, and it’s SO FUN!! So I’ll be obsessing over that for the foreseeable future.

Quotes To Enjoy

Here’s the All for Mage and Melody blurb for our quotes this month. This isn’t final, but it’s a start!

Taliesin Reid has had enough of fighting monsters. After an intense disease leaves him reliant on an ostomy bag, all he wants to do is fit in when he returns to school.

Befriending Melody Auden, the beloved daughter of the richest family in town, isn’t part of the plan.

Melody’s been told her whole life that she is the chosen one. Her grandfather and his business partner have fostered underground magical oppression that’s spanned decades, but she will be the one to set things right. That’s her destiny.

Protecting someone who needs her help—like Taliesin Reid—is part of what it means to be the chosen one. And anyway…he might be useful.

As Melody’s plans spiral and Tali gets swept up in her confidence, both must ask themselves: what does it take to be a hero…and what are they willing to lose?
