I'm very excited to announce that I've finished my Contributor trilogy and that the final book is now available on Amazon!

Haven't started the trilogy yet? Contributor (book 1) and Infiltrator (book 2) are also both available on Amazon, as is Creators, a free prequel novella.
You can also sample the first six chapters of Contributor on my site, starting here.

(Psst: if you haven't read the previous two books yet, you may want to steer clear of this description as it does contain some spoilers.)

Instigator: The final book in the YA/NA dystopian and post-apocalyptic Contributor trilogy
Disillusioned and angry at the revelation of the Free Thinkers’ secret patron, Dara isn’t sure whether her decision to join them was the right choice. Guilt over Letizia’s loss plagues her, and she feels betrayed by one of the few people in whom she placed her trust.

Adjusting to life outside of the domes hasn’t been easy over the past six months, especially because the Free Thinkers’ progress is so frustratingly slow. Nothing has changed, and she doesn’t know how much longer she can deny her searing need for vengeance, or even whether she should place her faith in the Free Thinkers. The more the truth about both them and the Creators is revealed, the less certain she is that the two are all that different. What if she handed them the incriminating evidence they need to exploit to ensure a future that looks a lot like what the Creators envisioned?

Yet Dara has never been more certain of one thing: the Creators must pay—for what they did to her mother, for what they did to Letizia, and for what they’ve done to humanity.

Instigator is available on Amazon.

Updates - Forbidden, Instigator, and future projects

What happened to Forbidden, right? Well, basically, I've been so busy with that bad boy to your left that I haven't had as much time to update Forbidden as I would like. Couple that with a few other things--me going on a family vacation, me getting sick while on vacation with a sinus infection that's currently making its presence known big time--and you've got a recipe for my not being able to add new content.

The good news, though, is that Instigator is on track for its Monday, June 30th release. Once that's out, I'll take a little break from drafting anything new, which means I'll have more time to devote to Forbidden, which I'm happy about because I'm becoming quite fond of my new pet project.

Usually I try to rotate through my different genres, so I'm planning a new installment in the Fairytale Collection next, slated for a fall release. It's going to be a Cinderella reboot and I'm very excited about it. I've got lots of fun ideas for it, and I'm going to enjoy putting my own spin on yet another fairy tale. This won't be the last either, as I've got ideas for several other fairy tales.

After that, I'm not sure where I'll go. My goal is to release a total of four books this year: Starstruck, Instigator, the Fairytale Collection book, and one other to be determined. I have an idea for a young adult/new adult contemporary that I'd like to try writing, so it may be that one. I also have a fun idea for a new adult contemporary with some Jane Austen thrown in, and I might go with that one.

Further out,
I have tons of ideas for a fantasy series that I think will be about seven books. All of the books will be tied together by an overarching plot, but each book will focus on a different set of characters in a portion of the world, with the final book to bring them all together for the resolution. It's going to be a HUGE project that will require a lot of background work on my part, lots of world-building, setting up a magic system, establishing plant lore, etc. I'm looking forward to the challenge and to being able to spend all day long working once school's back in session.

That sums it up for me, but I'm always interested in hearing from readers. If you have thoughts about what you'd like to see me work on next, share them! You just might help me figure out what the heck I want to work on next.

Cover reveal: Instigator, the final book in the Contributor trilogy

After a lot of time, angst, writing, editing, and more writing and editing, the release date for the final book in the Contributor series is almost here. I don't have a firm date yet, but the book will be out by the end of June.

I thought I might feel sad about finishing, and I do feel some sadness. I'll miss these characters. I've spent more time with them than I have with any of my other characters. However, I'm excited too. Trying to finish the trilogy scared me for a long time because I was afraid of screwing it up, but I'm very happy with how the story turned out, and I hope readers will be too.

A word of caution: If you haven't read the first two books in the trilogy, you might not want to read the description for this book as it gives some plot elements away.
