Yes, it’s happening.
“I love it when a plan comes together!”
Finally, three (+) years after the date I signed up for my first Writer’s Digest Workshop (and received a crash course in craft) and three years after I first buckled down to attempt (and win) my first NaNoWriMo, I am ready to hit the big red button to launch this rickety old rusted and duct-taped contraption I like to call my “writing career” into the wild blue yonder.
I have read and researched and learned so much over the last three years I’ve sometimes felt my eyes were bleeding and my brain had melted full away. But I think I’ve now sopped up most of that mess and managed to wrestle it all into some kind of coherent and semi-informed plan, so here we go.
I self-published my very first thing in late October of this year, and having successfully wrangled Kindle Direct Publishing, I now feel confident enough to announce a mostly solid publication schedule for the rest of 2015 and into early 2016.
So here is what’s coming up, folks!
December 2015:
“The Transference”, Episode 1 of “Blackmarket Body”, science fiction.January 2016:
“Cluing for Words” (working title), a book of found poetry inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories.February 2016:
“Breakfast Time on the Farm”, children’s book.March 2016:
Episode 1 of “The Hound of God” (title to be determined), steampunk/paranormal.
And that’s as far as I’m willing to plan for the moment! This is, of course, subject to change with little notice, but I’m only announcing it because everything is lined up in accordance with this plan as of now, and this is the plan I plan on following (see what I did there?).
That being said, if you’d like to know exactly when these titles are released and be notified of any changes (or bonuses!), you can sign up to my mailing list here. That will make you privy to all the behind-the-scenes stuff I don’t take the time to announce on the blog. If you only want announcements on certain genres, feel free to let me know that as well via an email once you’re signed up and I’ll be sure you only get notified of stuff you’re actually interested in!
You can also volunteer to be an Advanced Copy Reader there, which will give you access to ALL my books early, and for free, and all you have to do in return is let Amazon know how you felt about it after you read it! 😀 Just check the “Reader” option in Manage Your Preferences and you’ll be set!
And with that, I’m off!

I heard a loud roar and whoosh about 5 hours ago, and saw a brilliant light streaking across the sky. Now I know the cause… the launch! I’m so happy to see your writing career take off! I’m looking forward to each publication! Citizens, be prepared to be entertained, enlightened, and enriched!
