Hallo! I’m BACK. The break over Christmas turned into a three month hiatus (because writing and deadlines), but I’m pretty confident all will be forgiven because I return with a BOOK GIVEAWAY. To mark #ReadWomenSF’s 1st year anniversary, I’ll be giving away four titles from our current Reading List (which you can find here). Three are […]

Recently re-released with BEAUTIFUL new cover art by Yeti Lambregts, Kindred is a time-travelling historical novel set between 1970s California and pre-civil war Maryland. With this new edition, I’m sincerely hoping this book finds lots of new readers because, honestly, […]
