I don't have a pre-order link I can share just yet but I wanted to show you the cover (and title) of my next book: Magic, Tea, and Shifter Trickery! This new book will have a similar vibe to Managing the Vampire's Mansion since they are both Magiford cozy urban fantasy standalone stories. But this book will be based in the real life town of Mukwonago, Wisconsin so even though they have matching covers there won't be any overlap with the characters. If you're looking for spoil

I have an extra special gift I'm giving all my Champions this December! My team has collected all of the Magiford related short stories and stuffed them into one volume called: A Curia Cloister Compendium And yes, it really will have everything including my newsletter specific short stories!* It even has it's own pretty cover! You will be able to download it to your reading device via Bookfunnel, just like several of my other freebies. But it will only be available for you to

It's almost Halloween which means it's time to talk about one of my favorite short stories I’ve ever written: Trick Or Treat! Trick or Treat is a Magical Beings’ Rehabilitation Center sequel short story, so if you haven’t read about Morgan and her Chicago friends you’ll want to go finish that duology first! OR... Here are some reasons you should NOT read this series: If you liked the Magiford books but wished they had less humor then do NOT pick up this series - it has way mo

Exciting news for all my library loving Champions! All of the ebooks from my Magiford trilogies are now available to read on multiple library lending apps including Libby (aka Overdrive), Hoopla, Cloud Library, and Borrow Box. If you don't already read books using one of these apps then I recommend you stop in at your local library to find out which app they offer (some libraries offer more than one!) and to get help installing the app on your device. Each library decides whi

I'm back with some more cover news! I wasn't planning on getting new covers for my YA fantasy book, Princess Ahira, but I saw this cover by Fieriz and I just fell in love with it! Isn't it beautiful?!? It has the perfect cozy fantasy vibe to match the Princess Ahira story! I've already updated the ebook and audiobook covers but I wanted to let you know about the change before I switched the paperback cover (just in case you wanted to order a paperback with the old cover).

I’m excited to announce the return of my annual Reader Survey! Woohoo! It's been a few years since I last conducted one of these but to give you a quick overview, I ask my Champions to fill out this short survey (it's only 7 questions long) and once you submit your answers you are treated to a brand new never-before-seen Magiford themed short story! The questions help my team learn more about you Champions (such as your favorite book genres) and give us direction on what my t

It's pretty rare to find a fairy tale where the woman is the only one who can save the day but the original tale of The Wild Swans (AKA The Six Swans) is exactly that! In this classic story a group of brothers is turned into swans by their evil stepmother and it's up to their sister to save them by knitting shirts of stinging nettles for each of them. Since this fairy tale is lacking a Disney animated movie or other pop culture adaptation I recommend reading my sarcastic summ

The ultimate fairy tale for cat lovers, starring a character made well know by the Shrek franchise: Puss in Boots! In the original story the cat, Puss, was just as amazing as his Shrek version, but his owner is... useless. (If you don't believe me, click here to read my sarcastic summary of French tale told by Charles Perrault.) It's not as well knows as other fairy tales but but by working with the awesome readers who follow me on social media we managed to come up with a li

My team and have been working to come up with fun ways for you to spend more time with the Magiford main characters and one idea we had was to give you an insider glimpse of text message conversations between them. We decided to kick things off with a fun Noctus text message chain that could have taken place during the events of book 1, The King's Captive. To clarify, didn't actually happen in the events of the book (so it isn't considered "cannon") but it accurately captures

Over a year ago the Facebook Group Champions did their own challenge where they had to poorly describe a book plot in the style of a Reddit AITA post. Most of them picked a Magiford story and since I had so much fun reading these the first time I knew they would be perfect to share on my social media in the lead up to the release of Managing the Vampire's Mansion! But I know not everyone checks my social media so I decided to do this wrap up post sharing all of them for every
