My friend and critique partner, Sadie Hart, is doing a little giveaway for one of her novellas, What The Heart Haunts, a sexy little paranormal romance that tells the story of Nalla, an ex-Hound of the Wild Hunt, exiled to live out the rest of her immortal days on the earth, never to run through the skies again…all because she did the forbidden: She fell in love.
Note that this is an adult romance, not YA.
But if you like it, I encourage you to spread the word! 
Happy reading!
I am officially down to five scenes remaining in the Big Boss Battle on my WIP, Souljacker. (Well, technically four remaining in the BBB, and one for story-wrapup, but still!) Whoot whoot! Kicking butt, I am. Of course, it’s all thanks to the lovely Sadie Hart, for using that cattleprod and…zapping me into submission and writing the end.
The end. Ominious, isn’t it? Ends are superbly hard for me. I don’t know if it’s the fact that I’ve been with these characters for 60k+ words, and know their book’s coming to a close and don’t want to give them up? Or if it’s the fact that I’m sick and tired of them and want it to be over (LOL!) that makes me halt around the 8-scenes-left line. I’ve done if for almost every book I’ve written. xD It’s just a Kodi-thing. But that’s okay!
The important thing is: I’m getting it done. I hope to have Souljacker completely written and a pass-over done by Monday, and out to betas the next day. Edits in April. And I still have hopes of a mid-May release date, but nothing’s set in stone.
BUT I do have a…dundundun…. Cover reveal
Souljacker:
Only one more year until she’s 18, then Lucifer Swift can start a new life, one not filled with loveless foster homes and whispered rumors—painful reminders of her past. She knows she’ll never outrun her Need, the monster inside of her that can suck the life force out of someone with just a touch, but she can sure as hell try. Nothing holds her here. She has no family, no friends, nothing.
Until she meets him.
Iofiel is a Cyberhound—a dark Faerie creation who can shift from man to canine and back again in the blink of an eye. Pack law denies him the right to love, but Iofiel can’t suppress his want. And he wants what he can’t have: A certain girl with haunted blue eyes, a girl with secrets darker than his…
I need to share this music with you 
I’m like super-obsessed with this guy right now; I plan on buying the CDs he has available on Amazon, but just haven’t had the chance. I especially love the songs where it’s just him and the piano…brilliant. Really wish this guy was bigger than he currently is :0 He’s got raw talent…compared to people like Ke$ha who are rich and famous…for no apparent reason (I’m not bashing her! She’s fun to dance to xD But if we’re being honest here, talented isn’t a word I’d use to describe her. My opinion 
)
As for me, I’m surviving. Fell off the ‘healthy’ lifestyle for a bit due to Evil Bronchitis, working my fitness level back up again now. I have noticed that while I was eating healthier/exercising daily, I had more energy and was more excitable and overall happy. So I want to get back to that level!
We had to have one of our elderly dogs put down earlier this month because she was doing really bad…worse than we realized after we took her in. Immy and I didn’t see eye to eye, so I’m not that broken by it…but the fact that my girl, Lily, my heartdog, is Immy’s littermate…and is gonna be eleven…kills. I wish I could breathe years back onto her life. I love her…but I hope she sticks around a long while Doxies can live to be 15+ so here’s to hoping!
Writing wise, kind of all over the place, lol! TRYING to finish Souljacker (which totally has a summary now, go look ! ;D) but I’m just feeling rather…unsettled with it. Still hoping to finish up those 8 scenes in the next week or so! Still hoping for a May release
And in good news, my WIP from last year, Hunger, is telling me its a trilogy and the last book sounds totally badass in my head! Unfortunately, I probably won’t get to that book until mid-2013. Too many ideas, too little time.

This novel has come a long way from being completely pantsed one fateful NaNoWriMo when I’d been through three dead-end drafts of books I’ll never go back to and couldn’t figure out what to write. I sat down, ready to start one project…and then Spellbound ran away with me. I had my main character’s name and the fact she was a dragon. The rest? Pfft. Who needs to know?
Of course, me being me, after about half the book spent floundering, going “What happens next?!” I decided to plot it. Well, about halfway. Then I hit 50k, shelved it, deciding I’d go back to it later. Two years later, I dusted it off, polished it up, plotted the end, and wrote the rest of it. It turned out to be slightly darker than I’d intended, but I love it.
Today, I’m happy to announce that Spellbound is now available for sale at Amazon, Amazon.co.uk Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords ($2.99). I will update Spellbound‘s page as more venues become available.
Until then:
Wylde Debraux is 16; sassy, fiercely independent—and the Wyvern princess of the desert tribe of Kiir’vanan. When her father demands she choose a suitor within a fortnight to become her mate, Wylde rebels…and finds herself face to face with her enemies.
Born without power, Kascien Trump is a slave to the Magi. He’s as trapped as the bio-engineered dragonhounds he breeds and fights for his master. Then Wylde blazes into his life, offering him the possibility of freedom, and he knows she’s probably his only ticket out of there. Alive, anyway.
But when Wylde’s captured, the spellbound slave and the fiery dragon-shifter have to put aside their differences and work together to outwit the Magi and escape the clutches of Kascien’s corrupt master…or lose themselves trying.
Happy reading! I hope you enjoy!
Hey all! I’m busy kicking bronchitis’s butt right about now, but I have something to share!
A few months ago, my friend sent me a link to this blog post about Wattpad’s Writer Partnership Program. Already a member of Wattpad, I’d found so many good stories through the site already (I loveee their Android app and I’ve bought several books after finding them on WP) that this just seemed to be the right choice for me, a way to build a fan base and share with readers who love books like Wolfsong.
Today, Wolfsong went Featured on Wattpad and was also their Friday Find I’m so beyond excited for this turn of events.
So what’re you waiting for? Go read it If you read it and like it, why not share the love? Comment or vote? FB/Tweet it to the world? Thanks guys, ILU <3
(Working on making Spellbound the best than it can be! Still planning on a March release )
