D'Vaire in 2023

Last week, Grymmie’s tale finally went live, and Lich Reaper’s Lament was the second longest book in the series. There was a ton more planned in the outline, but if I’d included everything, I would probably still be writing it! One thing I wanted to assure everyone is that although we learned little about enchanters, that won’t be the case for long. Since Lich Reaper’s Lament, I wrote two different books featuring Devlin’s race, and you’ll learn plenty about their people next year.

If you’ve finished Lich Reaper’s Lament, I’m sure you’re already wondering what’s next. Book thirty-four features a character who first entered the series in Imperial Twist. His race is small, and he calls Las Vegas home. As for his mate, he’s new to the D’Vaire world and so is his race. In my reader’s group tomorrow, I’ll share the first picture hint with the blurb following in a couple of weeks.

Since it’s the end of the year, let’s talk a little more about what to expect from the D’Vaires in 2023. I wrote seven full-length novels and I’m working on a short story right now for next December, which will again bring the holidays to Aleksander and Rafe’s mansion. It has a twist that I think is really fun, and although I’ve already re-written a chapter and still have a ton of work to do, it’s been enjoyable. 

I’m taking my time with it, and I have a long list of editing and other tasks that I have to complete, but I've finished writing novels for the year. Although I love my job, my creative batteries need a recharge and I’m working on giving myself more space in 2023 to breathe so I can let my imagination run wild. Don’t worry though, I have not scaled my projects, just re-worked my schedule. I spend the first few months of the year working at a snail’s pace, then by mid-summer I’m wondering why the hell I don’t have more finished.

In January, I’ll go back to work on crafting plots and haranguing reluctant guys in the D’Vaire universe so we can finally read their happily ever afters. I’ve put together a short list again this year of books I want to write, so please keep your fingers crossed everyone cooperates with me. As 2022 draws to a close, I’m still in disbelief that there are thirty-three published D’Vaire novels.

 I’m incredibly grateful to have such wonderful readers, and I love that I can bring the D’Vaire world to you. Thank you for every D’Vaire book you’ve read, and each guy in the universe you’ve cared for and loved. I wish you and yours the happiest of holidays, and may 2023 bring everyone good health and happiness.

Twists and turns

Shadowy Illusions was a fun, but emotional project, and I'm thrilled that Amaury was so insistent on telling his story. He definitely deserves a happily ever after, and so do his mates. After spending a few months hanging out with the Gennevioses, I enjoyed them, but I was ready to move on.  I’ve spoken several times now in my Facebook group about how many of the books this year contain characters that came into my head long before the D’Vaire series planted its roots in my brain. I'm not sure why they chose now to demand things, but I was happy to oblige. The next book is the last of those…at least for now, because I have a ton of old stories, and I certainly can’t predict who is going to jump in and request a story next.  Unlike Matebond Dance and Deliciously Enchanted , where the stories paralleled their original tales, the couple coming next barely resemble their foundational characters. Their story has edged its way near the top of the list of books I love most. It featu...

Origins

As I look ahead to the release of Dra’Kaedan’s Coven, my thoughts are drawn back to how it all started. There have always been characters in my head, but it wasn’t until I was a teenager that I understood they were stories that needed to be told. I have created many and for years I worked on a series of books that I still have yet to write. There are notebooks of plot outlines and timelines but nothing more than a collection of a few chapters. They are all contemporary stories and they started as M/F. My first gay character started as a secondary one, but I kept getting drawn back to him. Once I started reading M/M his story wouldn’t go away. Suddenly, it wasn’t just his story in my head but there were other couples as well. Since I have always been a gamer, its difficult for me to escape fantasy and some of these new people wanted powers. It was time to create a new series. At the start, I was going to do a mixed series. One book M/F and the next M/M. They were going to be mostly s...
