Hi, everyone! Just a heads up, M.D. Gregory and I are Pausing billing on our Patreon for a month and might potentially extend it through the holiday season. We have a lot of projects we're juggling right now, so we thought that was best. Thanks!

If you're wondering what I've been up to recently, here is an update from me! 💕 www.patreon.com/posts/update...

I've been absent from social media recently. I have been adjusting my sleep schedule. I haven't been right since LAST fall. I finally took a week to be a zombie, and now I feel really human again. It's been weird realizing lack of sleep made me an anxious mess. But I am back to my old self now!

Thank you for reading our books! Here is something fun for you, since you're so awesome. <3 Link to Outtake Scene: dl.bookfunnel.com/v1m06a7d8b

Eddie accidentally becomes a serial killer. In the process, he ends up winning the heart of a man he never knew he could love with all of his. You can pre-order now! Link: www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQ6PCJ8D

So, surprise! We're doing a murderous holiday book! 💕If you want to pre-order, the book will stay at $4.99 until I upload the final manuscript. I can't guarantee that I will remember to tell you before I do in probably a month, so I'm telling you now. 😅 Link: www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQ6PCJ8D

What else am I working on this week? Well, Meg and I are finalizing an outtake story for The Love Obsession, so if you wanted to see more of Zayn and Keaton, you will! <3

What am I doing this week? Well, my delightful narrator, Keval Shah, is hard at work! While you wait, you can check out our backlist: www.audible.com/author/Ki-Br...

Hi, everyone! I forgot to come here and tell you that The Love Obsession is live! It's in Kindle Unlimited. Link: www.amazon.com/dp/B0FF5J7FD9

I've been busy getting The Love Obsession ready for release. Well, this morning I finished! I wanted to let you know that it's $4.99 on pre-order right now, but after I upload this book tomorrow morning it will lock to $5.99. Thanks!💕 The Love Obsession: www.amazon.com/Love-Obsessi...

I have said many times that I no longer "scroll" social media. And I don't. But sometimes something so egregious occurs it reaches me by other means. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy. Suicide is not ever a happy ending. Please don't do this. Especially not to romance readers in MM/Gay Romance.

Did you see the collaboration Meg and I are going to be in? I'm excited for it because it's right up our alley. It's all very mysterious right now, but further announcements are on the horizon! The Love Obsession: www.amazon.com/Love-Obsessi...

Update on the audio for The Apprentice: Keval Shah has my "pickups" (industry term for requested corrections from our fantastic narrator), and when he's finished with them, we'll be getting that audio book out for you! I'm very excited. Meg wrote it, and I produced her audiobook. 💕

This is a reminder that I absolutely *do not scroll* on Bsky or ANY social media. If there is something you want me to know directly, you need to let me know it. I am not paying attention to anything at all right now other than getting my books finished. Well, and the news. But I read the papers.

The book we *just finished*, Flirting with the Felon, is currently with our amazing crew of early readers. It's going on Smashwords. It has a lot of sizzling sexy goodness in it, and it also involves Kismet Leawood sleeping with his half-brother's father. We didn't want to temp fate on the 'Zon. 🤣

What am I working on this weekend? Well, thank you for asking! I'm *finally* getting to the Newsletter Book that Meg and I finished back in February. My summer has been bonkers because I had to move, which I think a lot of you know. I love our new place! It's cozy. 💕 Broken Promises is the title.

Here is an update from me! I've been quiet while we've been working on our books. 💕 www.patreon.com/posts/update...

Here is a heads-up about the X-ray system on the Zon and Too Dear for Deer: The system has been really wonky. I don't know what else to say about it. I've been trying since last Sunday to set it up with no joy. I will keep trying. The glossary is in the back of the book and totally useful! <3

I miss *every single person* I used to talk to on social media, but taking this big break has been wonderful for my mental health and helped me gain a new understanding of my ADHD symptoms. Sadly (or happily?), my days of scrolling are done. I am reachable at our website, though. So drop me a line!

I am so happy to be done with the editing for Too Dear for Deer! Now I'm moving on to other projects in the New Gothenburg world! Finishing a book is always bittersweet, but I'm pretty sure we'll see Scott and Deer again sometime. Here is the link for the book: www.amazon.com/Too-Dear-Dee...

Audiobook announcement!💕 Keval Shah will be narrating Too Dear for Deer!

Hello, everyone! I’m so happy to announce that Too Dear for Deer is ready for you! It’s available to purchase and in Kindle Unlimited. Here is the link: www.amazon.com/Too-Dear-Dee... Thanks so much for all your continued support!

Hello, everyone! If you’re looking for a book with pet play that isn’t the same ole puppy and kitten books, here it is! (Although, I still love those types of books, too!💕) Available for purchase and in Kindle Unlimited. Here is the link: www.amazon.com/Too-Dear-Dee...

I'm just working and living life. I miss all the friends I used to "see" every day on social media. The break has been very good for my mental health and I am extending it basically indefinitely. I will check in here from time to time, but I will never "scroll" on Bsky. I will just hang out here. 💕

All Eyes on Him: A collection of st^lker M/M romance (Blue Crescent Books Anthologies) A collection of short stories, I devoured one by one. Arc thnx to Ki Brightly 🔗 www.amazon.com/dp/B0DSJTFG7W/ #reader #booksky #booktokcommunity #bookworm #lgbtqia #book #out @kibrightly.bsky.social

My story, I Am Not Alone, is available in Kindle Unlimited in the anthology All Eyes on Him! www.amazon.com/All-Eyes-Him...

Hello! Unfortunately, Kraken Up and Loving It has been canceled. The story wasn't working out and you all deserve my best work. I have many other upcoming books that are still on track. Thank you for understanding! www.patreon.com/posts/cancel...

Today I am working on Too Dear for Deer and also will be writing a chapter for my upcoming anthology piece.

What else am I reading this weekend? Well, one of my book coaching lovelies met Grady Hendrix a couple of weekends ago and gushed about the experience, so I'm halfway through The Final Girl Support Group, which is fantastic, by the way. Very much a page turner.

What am I reading this weekend? I am still reading Dracula! It takes me a long time to read anything, honestly. I usually take breaks to think about things I have read, but with Dracula I find myself looking up references I don't know. I have learned some Latin and a lot of Briticisms.

Today I'm working on editing Too Dear for Dear and finishing a chapter for an anthology piece.

Everything happening in the world has been tweaking my anxiety, which is not good for a creative person for the most part. What have you been doing to combat "the horrors?" I have to admit part of why I have mostly abandoned social media is anxiety related. The rest is the time suck.

I mean, I think the people who like my books would rather have me writing more books than bullshit with me online, generally speaking. I will still pop in here and on Patreon at least once a week. #IAmAProfessionalWriterNotAProfessionalSocialMediaUser

This year I am not engaging in things online that aren't cultivating my mental well-being or creativity. I need a hard reset and this is it.

Okay, this year I am playing my writer's card: Get Out of Life Weird. I don't like Instagram any more than I like Facebook, so I deleted it. You can find me here. LOL Basically, this and Patreon are it.

Leaving FB was a big deal for me. I gathered a lot of contact info and already had a lot from people I have worked with or talked to often. If you're someone who I have worked with and want to get in touch with me, I will break the No DM rule for you. LOL At least to gather contact info.

This year my goal is to get 12 complete books out, which I've managed in prior years. Last year I got 6 out, I think. So, that's part of why I'm trimming down my social media and everything else. I want to weed out distractions and increase positive interactions with real people.

I had several people ask: No, I was not "banned" from FB. I deactivated it for a bit, then decided to totally break from it because my mental health has been so much better. I'm still here! I can be reached here for sure! I love everyone. <3

If anyone is wondering why I have been noticeably absent from social media, in part it is because I was sick for several weeks and am behind on all fronts, but also this: www.patreon.com/posts/social...

Today I'm working on editing Too Dear for Deer and writing an anthology piece. <3

Today I am writing a chapter for an anthology. ❤️

So, I haven't been on FB for about 3 days now, and I have had a big turn around in my mental health. My anxiety is down a good deal. I feel more alert. I feel like my writing is much crisper and better than anything I've turned out recently. I feel HAPPIER. I'm having better conversations. 💕

The Companion was amazing! I had such a great time! Eli and Patrick were the best. <3

One of my besties and I are going to see The Companion this evening. I LOVE supporting actors who are great to fans, so I immediately knew I wanted to see Harvey Guillen's new movie. It's still in theaters, so you have time to go check it out!

I'm still reading Dracula this week because I'm planning to write some vampires and want some *classic* inspiration! What is everyone else reading?

Meg and I have a brand-new complete story on Patreon right now. www.patreon.com/posts/broken...

Just a heads up: I won't be reading or answering DMs here. If you want to ask me questions about my books you can either pop it up publicly and I will be happy to answer or you can ask on Goodreads. It takes me a bit longer to answer on Goodreads because I only check it about once every two weeks.
