November 2021 Newsletter & Giveaway

Happy…er, November?

Wow, how did we get here so quickly? I hope you’ve all been keeping well.

November is National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo. Or NaNo. Writers all around the world have committed themselves to writing 50,000 words over the next 30 days. I almost said nah to NaNo this year, but there’s a particular paranormal project I need to finish, so I’m joining in with the aim of writing at least 20,000 words. I’ll have to cut down my daily rowing sessions, but it’ll be worth it. Are you participating? Good luck to you! You can do it!


Thank you to everyone who entered last month’s Ghost Giveaway! L.C. of Canada won an e-copy of THIS IS YOUR AFTERLIFE 👻 and an UNDER THE MILKY WAY 👽 paperback. Congrats, L.C!


Who’s ready for another giveaway? Make sure you’re following me on Instagram, because I’ll be running a flash giveaway there between November 2 and November 5 (EST). Up for grabs is a print copy of Eric Smith’s new YA release, YOU CAN GO YOUR OWN WAY. International entrants are very welcome. There’s huge buzz for this book. I can’t stop humming the song. Here’s the blurb:



It’s been incredible to hear from readers about how much they enjoyed UNDER THE MILKY WAY. And the 5-star reviews on Amazon and elsewhere, including the one below, keep me motivated to write every day. They really mean a lot. Thanks so much!

Until next time, take good care of yourselves, and happy reading and/or writing!
