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.

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

The series returns to the D'Vaire mansion soon!

Caution: If you haven't read Blaze of Eternity yet, there are spoilers ahead! Resurrection of the Fallen was a book that, despite its length, I completed in less than three weeks. As fast as Conley drives, it’s not much of a surprise that he had to make sure his story was told swiftly. I worked from morning until night, and that book remains one of my favorite stories. The only slow day was the day I had to write the death scene. It took me a few hours to brace myself to write it, but it was otherwise a wonderful experience. One thing I love is the format, but I didn’t want to replicate unless the right project demanded it. While historical romances are something I adore and getting to play in around in the past is always fun for me, I figured Resurrection would be completely unique in that way. I know some readers don’t enjoy reading the historical content, but I started this series for me, and I will continue to write characters and stories that move me and make me want to read

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 featur
