2019: More D'Vaire on the way!

So, I can’t remember what information I’ve offered as far as what to expect from me in 2019 so I thought I would get you up to date. At this point here’s what's ahead:
  • Becoming D’Vaire – This is High Arcanist Delaney (the Dark) D’Vaire’s story. We’re editing it right now and I have to tell you I can’t wait for you to read this one. I love all the guys I’ve created but some of them are higher up on my list of favorites and these two are right there at the top. Their book was the first time I finished one and was horribly sad that I had to stop. It was a hangover that I think has taken me the full year since I finished it to get over. I plan to release it in March.
  • The next guy up is Emperor Chrysander Draconis. As you can imagine, his story needed to be rather epic as he’s the one who leads the dragons as well as the Council of Sorcery and Shifters, so he has two books. Unlike the nasty cliffhanger between Alaric and Chander’s two books, I promise you I didn’t leave you cursing either of our heroes’ names. The titles of His Majesty’s books are No Ordinary Drakeling and Eminently Elf. They do tell you a bit about what to expect of the man who will help Chrysander lead the Council in the future.
  • The fifth novel expected out in 2019 is from two characters still waiting to meet you. Costas will appear first in No Ordinary Drakeling and so will his mate but for now I’m going to keep the little mystery thing of who he is because I can't stop being mean.
  • Last on the list is something different for me. It’s the first short I’ve done at only around 25,000 words and it’s not even a romance, but it is loads of goofy fun. Have you wondered what happens when the whole D’Vaire clan decides to host a big holiday get-together? Well, if you have then you’ll get your answer later this year when Letters to Aleksanta becomes available. It’s told mostly from Aleksander’s point and I enjoyed stepping into his shoes for more than a single chapter at a time. I hope you will get a kick out of their hijinks.
There’s one more book that is completed and that is Dravyn’s story which you will likely see in 2020. I haven’t gotten this one scheduled yet, but I’ll let you know once I’ve moved forward with it. Since I’m apparently in a sharing mood, my current project is Imperial Duke Damian’s tale. I hit the halfway mark yesterday and it’s both pleasing me as well as frustrating me. I love him and I’m crazy about his other half, but my brain can’t stop fast forwarding. I want to tackle the next couple and keep going and going. I haven’t added any new stories however, my husband reminded me last night that I do have another pair that actually predates the creation of the D’Vaire series that I have yet to squeeze in. Which means I have tons to do so I need to get to it!

This one is a bit short...

Five weeks ago, I sprained my finger and unfortunately, the tears in my collateral ligaments are still healing. I’m back at the orthopedist at the end of the month to check on it and with some luck, I’ll get to stop wearing the straps anchoring it soon. As you can imagine, it’s limiting my time on the computer. But I'm squeezing in as much writing and editing as I can. It was great to finally return to the D’Vaire household with Scales and Stone, and we’ll be there again for the next edition to the series, which is a holiday story. In my Facebook group, I’ll reveal the first hint about what to expect from the D’Vaires and their loved ones tomorrow morning. Although I’d hoped to be finished with a book by now, I’m still plugging away at it. The characters are being patient with me, which I appreciate. Like Scales and Stone, it takes place at the D’Vaire mansion, and it’s been fun to hang out with some of my favorite people. At this point, I’m still paranoid about whether these...

Schereding in a new warlock book

Scheredin’s story wasn’t one I ever thought would come to fruition. As I created the D’Vaire universe, I put Noirin and Scheredin in there because they’re a vital part of my life and it was fun to add my gaming personas into my fantasy world. However, while Noirin’s path was chartered quickly thanks to Rafe and how his romance with Aleksander worked out, Scheredin didn’t cooperate in the slightest. His personality emerged as I poked and prodded at him, and he was full of surprises. I tried to pair him with multiple partners, and although I was pretty sure about his magic, I wasn’t positive he wanted to be a dark warlock until I wrote The Dragon Masquerade . But from the start I wanted Scheredin’s partner to have something to do with his gaming. For me, that was a neat way to honor the true Scheredin who exists virtually. Thankfully, Scheredin and Kieran liked the idea too, and when they were ready, the details spilled out in a rush. Their book wound up being one of those that was relat...

Two elves, a centaur, and an enviable collection of toys...

Unpredictable Fate was an interesting journey. When I started Disregarding Fate , I had an idea of what Evlithar’s life was like and why he made the decisions that he did. Evlithar wasn’t perfect and he wasn’t always right, but when I neared the end, I found myself altering aspects I thought long ago decided. The birth of Kalthekor’s child sent him reeling and he changed drastically. By the time I completed Evlithar and Cadlyr’s journey I was feeling rather sorry for Kalthekor. But I set it aside. He had a mate and unfortunately, she did not make him happy. When we got to the editing stage of Disregarding Fate , Hope (one of my editors) mentioned how bad she felt for him too and was there something that could be done to help him. Although I could understand and appreciate her point of view, Fate’s choice had been made. I moved on but it festered in my brain. Out of nowhere a centaur charged in and nothing would ever be the same. I grew excited about the idea of giving Kalthe...
