I should point out that my current work in progress, Gallowglass, is a sequel to Transfiguration. But I had earlier posted here that I was putting that sequel up on Kindle Vella, chapter by chapter, with the title of Transfiguration 2: Blood Magic. But Vella is no more.

Consider this one:Continue reading “Perplexity AI Knows Me!”

I kind of took a break, after writing twelve trans novels in two and half years. But with the horrifying election results, something clicked inside of me. So now I’ll be working overtime. First up, finishing up my sequel to Transfiguration, my novel about a trans teen witch. And I also will start my nextContinue reading “I’m Back…”

I’ve been MIA, I know, as far as new books for a while. A combination of heavy workload and some health issues have kept me sidelined, but I promise that is about to change. I also wanted to offer heartfelt thanks for a wonderful reader review of my second Patsy Conroy novel, Shadowland. Here isContinue reading “Updates & A Wonderful Review of Shadowland”
