A Break in The Barrenmire Lights

I am adjusting the dates for my next releases.

As fellow author, Jenna Barwin, once said, “There’s a clown car of characters screaming to get released from my brain, and the one yelling loudest gets released.”

I was planning on releasing the entire Barrenmire Lights collection, one after the other. However, I have an idea that has been screaming at me—screaming to get out of my head—within these last few weeks, and it’s been so loud, if you know what I mean, that I have to write it. I have to. So, after I finish the next Barrenmire Lights book, Hollow, I will be writing this other book.

I will begin writing the final two Barrenmire Lights books after that, but this idea has begun to invade my dreams more frequently now, and it’s time to write it. It will be very therapeutic to write, so that’s exciting. And I get to see a very good friend of mine that I haven’t seen in a long time. I’ve also already completed the blurb for the book as well as part of the outline, and I think it is the best blurb I have written thus far. As a side note, just so I’m not tooting my own horn, I’m critical enough of myself that I don’t actually think my blurbs are ever that great, but this one really hits me.

Hollow is also going to be published sooner than my original expected release of June 6th, and now it will be released April 6th, 2025.

My Current Read

Currently trying to hit my reading goal for the year, but I’ve done so much writing that I don’t think that is going to happen. However, in order to try to reach my goal, I am reading Eva Ashwood, because I can’t resist an Eva Ashwood book.

I’m currently reading The Dark Elite trilogy series by Eva Ashwood. I just finished reading the first book, Vicious Kings, and started the second book, Ruthless Knights. And I just have to say… wow! I’m already halfway through the second book in just a few days, and the spice is extra spicy and there’s an amazing plot going!

This series is also going to be my reading recommendation for the week.

Recent Movies & TV Shows

As expected, the last season of Ink Master was awesome, and so was the first season of The Summit! They’ve also announced that there will be a second season of The Summit, but there is no date yet.

Also, I didn't think I'd be into the show Landman, but it's been really good. I can't say that I care to watch every single episode, but damn if there aren't certain events that really grab my attention.
