Author Update ~ Autumn 2021 #amwriting #pnr

If you've been keeping up with my newsletter or my blog, then you probably know that I've been a busy little author for the last several months. I've really ramped up my writing and excitement about publishing.

And the hard work has paid off!

In August, one of the collections I was in hit the USA Today Bestseller list. I'm still over the moon about that one! In addition, I became an internationally bestselling author in the process. A dream come true!

Because of these multi-author projects, I'm flexing my writing muscles and reaching more readers. Two of the things I've been wanting to do for quite some time.

Now that summer is over (where did the time go?) and we're heading into autumn, I'm taking a look at what's ahead.

I have a paranormal romance scheduled for release on October 16 called The Ghost of Morley Manor. I'm a sucker for a good ghost story. Adding a love story to the mix is a wonderful bonus. Gothic romance has always been my first true love in fiction, so my novella this month is a reflection of this.

I'm giving my sci-fi aliens a rest this month and focusing on my paranormal romances. It is Halloween season after all, so that seems appropriate.

For October, I'm going to share several excerpts of my previously published paranormal romances with you. And maybe a few true story ghostly tales. 

I've had some eerie experiences with the unexplained. But I don't think I've really delved into those for my blog readers. So expect to see that sometime this month. In the meantime, I'd love to hear ghost stories from you! Share in the comments!

And I may make a list of my favorite spooky movies or books to read during this spectacular season. Would you be interested in that? I can put it on my ever-growing to-do-list. :)

If I have time, I might have another surprise for you. I've been working on a long-time project. It's a paranormal romance that's really different from anything else I've written to date. I'm looking into possibly publishing it on Kindle's new platform, Vella, as it seems it might fit there nicely. It's another way to flex those writing muscles! 

That's all for now. But I do have upcoming books to watch out for this winter! I'll keep you posted! Until then, if you haven't already, please check out my most recent releases!

Happy Reading!

Favorite Things About Autumn #LongandShortReviews #BlogChallenge

 

Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge hosted by Long and Short Reviews.

This week's topic: Favorite things to do in the autumn

I love when the trees start to turn colors and the air cools enough for me to turn off the air conditioners and open the windows to let the fresh breeze back into my house. With the heat of summer gone, I can go about my day in either long jeans or shorts depending on how I feel. 

Then we have the flavors of everything pumpkin. I drool at the thought of pumpkin muffins. Seriously, those should be around all year long. I know some people can get crazy with pumpkin flavors, but I do draw the line with some things. I tried pumpkin ice cream and that is just not my thing!

Hot apple cider is a must-have treat in my household. Years ago, I learned how to make it from some workers at a cafe near the bookstore where I worked. Since the cafe is closed now, I'm fortunate to be able to make this delicious drink for myself and my kids. 

Autumn = Halloween.

For me, that is. Anyone who knows me understands I have a passion for the otherworldly and supernatural. I've been obsessed with ghosts since growing up in my grandmother's haunted house. Tales of cryptids intrigue me. Stories of vampires, witches and werewolves thrill me. I considered quite seriously as a teenager of becoming a parapsychologist or ghost hunter, but I was afraid that wouldn't pay my mortgage when I grew up. Although, I still keep that open as an option for a hobby.

Haunted hayrides and corn mazes are fun things to do with the kids. I take my children to as many free festivals as I can find where they can pick their own pumpkins and paint them. We usually get at least two large pumpkins at home where we carve them into jack-o-lanterns.

Because of my ghostly passion, my kids and I have already visited every haunted site in the county where we live, but during the month of October, we re-visit some places. Last year, I took some of my teenager's friends with us on an excursion to a haunted road nearby where it's said a woman appears who is searching for her killer. We didn't see anything, but it was fun telling the kids ghost stories while driving along an eerie forest road. 

When I was a teenager, most television shows about the supernatural would air during October. I'm fortunate to live in a world where the supernatural is a hot topic for discussion. There are countless movies, documentaries and reality TV shows available to view all year long! But, in October, we always make more of an effort to watch the spooky specials and the ghost hunting shows. We have a lot of fun with it.
