Psst... if you've been thinking about trying my books, #Kobo has the first one available free for the next few days only! I have never done a free promo before, so grab it now...

https://www.kobo.com/ca/en/ebook/river-of-crows-1

(Link goes to the Canadian Kobo site, but I believe the promo is available in all regions, so if you change the link to your country, or just search for my name and then click on River of Crows, it should be free for everyone.)

I am currently working on fixing the documentation of my story that someone wrote in a way that doesn't make any sense, and I'm told they were fully awake, okay yes it was me...

Comic by CollegeHumor titled
"Write down ideas whenever they come to you!"

Writer sitting up in bed looking wozzy, clock shows 05:00.
"Just had such a good idea, gotta write this down..."
THE NEXT MORNING
A note that says "When the glove".
The writer holding the note looking unimpressed.

Remember that fancy Frenchie I kept posting for #WIPWednesday?

His #book is finally live on #Kickstarter ! THE POOCH SALUTE! is a cozy contemporary #fantasy with talking #dogs, Crock-Pot healing potions, and a Fourth of July parade no one’s ready for.

It's got warmth, wit, and second chances—for people and pups.

Boosts appreciated!

Cover of The Pooch Salute! A cheerful French bulldog in a red, white, and blue outfit strikes a confident pose beside a stylish older woman who wears a white blouse with a red bow and gestures dashingly at the title. Behind them is a festive Fourth of July backdrop with sparkles and celebration vibes. The title is bold and playful, with “Fashion Frenchies Book 2” as a subtitle. The overall tone is whimsical, heartwarming, and fun.

#ScribesAndMakers Apr 23: Do you have deadlines? External or self-imposed?

My deadlines are self-imposed, but I do try to meet them. My current main goal is getting book 2 of SECONDARY out the door by the end of the year. I'm pretty sure I'll hit that.

Trolls, boogeymen and witches, oh my!
Just another day for a young wizard.

It all starts here: https://books2read.com/b/TrollSong

The ad flyer for the series The Wizard's Scion.

(Background) View of a planet from space.

(Top Center) A black flying saucer surrounded by this text:
Trolls, boogeymen and witches, oh my!
Just another day for a young wizard.

(Top Left) The cover of Troll Song displays a woman in battered, muddy armor with her two swords crossed against the neck of a dwarf. The book has a red stamp in the lower right corner indicating the ebook is free.

(Lower Left) The cover of Forgotten Legends displays a child reading in bed as a black, smoky monster with red eyes peeks out from under the bed.

(Lower Center Left) The cover of The Third Wish displays a wizard on top of a mountain, looking to the sunset, over a city of sky scrapers that have plants growing on them. In his shadow is the red eyed creature from Forgotten Legends.

(Lower Center Right) The cover of Dark Moon displays a witch and wizard fighting back to back, holding pistols, while objects fall around them, with the moon behind their heads.

(Lower Right) The cover of The Inverted Glass displays a line art hourglass with a white figure in black sand at the bottom, with a black figure in white sand upside-down in the top. Balanced on a scale are a heart and a feather.

(Upper Right) The cover of The Wizard's Scion: The Complete Series displays several figures in silhouette representing the main characters, as they traverse a wormhole. Behind them is a red-eyed octopus.

Is it just me, or do other writers feel bad leaving their characters in a bad situation while they go make a coffee? Or worse—abandoning them for days, until the urge to hammer at the keyboard strikes again?
