Want to Be Demon King Draco's First Love? *3/25/22 Update: Entries Are Now Closed*

3/23/2022

Do you want to be Demon King Draco's first love?

If you've ever wished a book character could be named after you, here's your chance! 

Now through 11:59am CST on March 25th 2022, I am accepting nominations for the name of Demon King Draco's first love. 

This character already has their own unique role in Draco's tragic backstory before he meets Angel Princess Seracuse in Angel's Abdication, but they are the first person that awoke the Human side--both bad and good-- within the Demon's soul.

If you're a fan of dark, enemies-to-lovers, redemptive villain book boyfriends, Draco may be the man for you! 
The winning name will be drawn at random on March 25th, 2022.

The name will be revealed only in my upcoming novella, Angel's Abdication (pre-order before its April 9th release HERE), and in an announcement to my newsletter subscribers (sign up HERE). 

**Entries are now CLOSED. The winning name will be e-mailed to my e-mail list and written in Angel's Abdication​.**
​
*All eligible names will be placed into a randomizer and a winner chosen at random on March 25th 2022. I do not discriminate based on age, race, religion, or gender orientation; all names are welcome (spam "names" - such as profanity submitted in the name box - and trademarked names will be the only ones ineligible for consideration). 

No purchase is necessary to enter or win. Pre-ordering a copy of Angel's Abdication will not increase your odds of being selected in any way.

Non-English names must be written in the English alphabet, as KDP does not support printing in all symbols at this time. 

The selected name will be use fictionally, in a work of fiction, and as that character's thoughts/actions are solely based on my imagination, no royalties or rights may be assigned by the person nominating the character name. Any resemblance to the actual character is entirely coincidental.

3 Weeks 'Til Angel's Abdication Comes Out!

It is now less than 3 weeks 'til Angel's Abdication comes out!

This is my very first Dark Fantasy Romance EVER, and it kicks off a duology of long novellas about Demon King Draco's relationship with Angel Princess Seracuse. 

The second volume of the duology (Angel's Ascendance) is coming out August 9th 2022.

The duology leads right into my full-length dark fantasy romance novel Splitting Dawn, which will be available exclusively in the Realm of Darkness box set (October 4th 2022), and in which Draco will be a prominent character. 

If you haven't pre-ordered your copy of Angel's Abdication yet, there's still time to be one of the first people to own a copy by pre-ordering HERE.
Angel Princesses are not supposed to be forced into marriages with Devils. 

Especially not the Crown Princess of The Heavens to The Devil Himself...


When Seracuse, the Angel crown princess, discovers her hand has been pledged to Lucef, the Devil himself, she must fall from The Heavens to avoid a life at his mercy.

Abdicating the Angel throne is not an easy feat, though--not with the forces of both The Heavens and The Lower World on her trail.

Stumbling into The Human World, the wounded fallen Angel is rescued from would-be poachers by a charming, enigmatic Demon who takes her in and nurses her back to health.

The spark between them is undeniable and instant--and the bond she finds herself forging with her rescuer is the strongest and purest one she's had with another person in centuries.

If only he wasn't the Demon King, Draco.

And the Devil's brother.

(Pre-Order HERE for the April 9th 2022 release)

As a thank-you for stepping up in support, I will also be giving out some FREE books to those who donate before 11:59pm CST on March 21st 2022.

Bekah is a pillar of the Indie Author Community.

Her battle has been an inspiration, and today she is working through treatment at the Spero Clinic in order to regain a life with less pain.

One of the big goals of her treatment is regaining the ability to write without pain. Bekah supports others' written worlds, and it's our turn to support hers.

With that being said, I am offering THREE free book offers to anyone who donates to Bekah's GoFundMe HERE:

-Donate $5 US to Bekah's GoFundMe for a free Amazon US e-book copy of both Down Falls The Queen AND Down Falls The King; my duology about Tengu Warrior Princess Rei.

-Donate $10 US to Bekah's GoFundMe for a free Amazon US e-book copy of The Vow That Twisted Fate, my Amazon bestselling novel

-Donate $20 US to Bekah's GoFundMe for a free Amazon US e-book copy of both Angel's Abdication AND Angel's Ascendance, my dark fantasy romance duology about Demon King Draco and Angel Princess Seracuse, on release day (April 9th and August 9th 2022).

**This giveaway has now closed. Thank you for your support!**

What is The Slayer Queen?  Perhaps the better question is who is The Slayer Queen?

Allow me to introduce Vampire Queen Alara Coronaldy, the heroine of the novel you (my amazing readers) voted to be my free summer 2022 release!

While you can read an overview of The Slayer Queen HERE, I am excited to share some bonus details and other information for you about my newest work in progress below:

-The Slayer Queen is a Grimdark, Vampire Apocalyptic Fantasy
-It follows a strong, independent female main character
-There will be slight romantic sub-plots involving the aftermath of 'forbidden love', but no steam 
-Both vampires and warlocks make an appearance alongside the humans in the book
-It is a NA (New Adult) novel, but older YA readers may enjoy it as well
-This is a grimdark fantasy set in our world. Readers who would like to see the trigger warnings should scroll to the end of this blog post. 

The Slayer Queen will be released as a free novel this summer (2022), exclusively for my e-mail list subscribers.Current subscribers will receive the book TWO WEEKS before it goes live for anyone else.

Not on my e-mail list yet? Sign up HERE to be in the first group to receive a copy of The Slayer Queen. I'll even send you a novella ( Splitting Dusk: A Splitting Worlds Novella ) to start reading now while you wait for The Slayer Queen.

Dates of release are still pending, so stay tuned for details! Currently, the release looks like it will be in May 2022. 

**Trigger Warnings Below**
War, death, genocide, blood and gore, torture, death of a loved one, murder/death of minor children under age 18, parental abandonment, racism and sexism (which are called out/addressed by the main character).

A New Chapter In My Writing Journey Is Here

3/2/2022

1 Comment

 
Now that my second year as an indie author is officially rolling, a new chapter in my writing journey is here. 

When I began this journey in October 2020, my mentorship with Lindsey Teske from Of Ink and Pearls Publishing set me on my path and gave me the tools to make it where I am today. To say Lindsey's advice was invaluable is a gross understatement. I truly believe that without her foundations, I would not have had the success I did as a debut Epic Fantasy author.

Once The Vow That Twisted Fate launched, though, and Lindsey and I parted ways, I found myself riding the waves that are the highs of a book release and the lows of imposter syndrome. 

Self-publishing isn't necessarily easy.

Who am I kidding? It's downright challenging.

But it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done as an author.

With that being said, after 7 months of trying to find my place in the indie author scene, of writing multiple novellas and participating in interviews, live chats, and more, I am ready to move into a new chapter in my writing journey. 

I have signed an Elite Mentorship contract with Dragon Realm Press!

One of the most important lessons I've learned as an indie author has been to be humble and teachable. There are always new things to learn, always ways to improve, and being open and eager to learn from those who have achieved what I myself wish to achieve is the key to growth.

How does this affect my book/publishing schedule?

For already-scheduled books, it doesn't affect the schedule.

-The Slayer Queen is still in the works to be included in an anthology this summer
-Angel's Abdication (April 9th) and Angel's Ascendance (August 9th) are both still on schedule for release as planned
-Splitting Dawn is still a part of the Realm of Darkness box set, which comes out in October

What this new chapter does mean, though, is that I will be learning how to better share my work with the world, and how to make the most of the non-writing time I have. I am ready to be more intentional with my time, and move beyond 'coasting'. 

I am excited for this new step into potentially becoming a full-time author in the future! My hope is that this means I will have more books for you without the long waits, and that those books will find homes on new shelves, too. 

Thank you for joining me on my writing journey!

If you're an aspiring author or indie author who'd like to hear about some tools/tips that have helped me make it this far, check out my YouTube series (the March schedule can be seen HERE ).
