So it isn't really a happy time for me, but I'm working on making it a better time but celebrating al

Blog postComicConAfrica 2018Thank you to everyone who made the first ever Comic Con Africa a roaring success. It was amazing to see so many people in person that I have met through my books and welcome to all our new fans.

Blog postHello Nightmares! We are nine days away from the official release of #TheCullingThis has been a rollercoaster ride of note! It's the first time I delayed a release so that I can do full blown marketing all on my own!

This time around the bank holidays were Friday and Tuesday and my gracious and lovely boss gave us the Monday off for good measure so I had five days off of happiness.The WeekendWell, not comple

Blog postHey Nightmares,Writing a book is the easy part, it's marketing that gets you.That's what all my author friends have said to me over the last few months and I have to say, I firmly agree. It's not easy planning take overs, cover reveals, scheduling blogs and making the newsletter but I do it, in and around my day job and normal life. It's days like today that make it worth it. Today is short and sweet for me because all I want to do is share with you the BEAUTIFUL cover and blurb of my new book:

Blog postHello Nightmares!It has been an absolutely FANTASTIC week in the writing world. This week I managed to get out 15 000 words of The Culling, my new story that will be coming out soon, and I only have 4000 words to go before I can begin the editing process!

Well I personally thought I was dying but it turned out I just had Listeriosis, nothing major.... NOT! I was MAN down and I really thought that this was it, this was how I was going to die. I didn't die, but unfortunately I also couldn't do much else because it sapped all the strength from me. Luckily I have survived and am bouncing back bigger a

Blog postWell, this has certainly been an exciting weekend! Toni and I, the Alternative Authors, attended "A Viking Thing" that was hosted by AlterEgos Events at La Vue Guest Lodge in Muldersdrift. It was a misty morning when the Alternative Authors docked their long boats at La Vue Guest Lodge. Situated between breakfast and dessert, we prepared ourselves for a feast to rival all feasts, a festival that would be spoken about for ages to come. We, the wise women who scribe tomes, would be a par

Blog postThis week has been a long and busy week in my life. Not only did I have a ton of day job things to get through, I also had a ton of author things to do as well. Hit that up with not feeling like myself this week, saying goodbye to a good friend (and good luck in South Korea) and trying to figure out what my next step is... well I'm pooped.A lot of exciting things have happened this last week in terms of other authors work! I'm super glad to be able to share my thoughts through this newsletter be

Blog postThe threat is still there but Maia is too lost in her own pain to even begin to comprehend what is going on around her. The person she isn't meant to love, but does, is nowhere to be seen. The person she considers a friend but is in deep love with her is doing everything to win her affection. An unlikely person becomes her friend, and she falls in love with him. Oh, did I mention that there is a vampyre army about to attack Grildor and the Elves who live there? Not to mention Midnight is about t

Blog postThis week has been a hard week because I was pushing to get Kallista's first draft done! It's so exciting to finish a book but at the same time it's nerve wrecking. I always get end of story blues and this one was no different. Those last three chapters had to be wrenched out of me because I have lived Kallista for so long now I'm not sure what to live now.The Culling.Before I get onto The Culling I need to wrap up Kallista. Are you waiting for your copy? I'm looking to release February the 15th

Blog postIt's 2018 peoples! Happy New years! Yes I know this is a little late but I will beg some pardon here, I was out in the middle of the bush with no signal enjoying some me time with my #AuthorBestie Toni Cox, her family and my family. It was a great retreat but I am ready to be back in the hustle and bustle of the big city and to dive right back into writing. Okay, I dove right back in yesterday and pumped out over 13k words for Kallista. This beauty is coming out soon! And I have a feeling it's g

Blog postThere is a lot to be said about the year passing by quickly, because it has passed by quickly. It is the 21st of November which means there is nine days left of November and 40 days left of the year. Where did the time go? And what a busy year it has been for me!
