2019 has been a creative whirlwind to say the least. Coming out of 2018, one of the darkest years of my entire life, I dug deep into my writing for therapy. Those writing sessions eventually birthed my latest and most personal poetry book to date, Eleven: Things We Never Said. Just before then, I had put the finishing touches on When the Cookie Crumbles (the final installment of my trilogy novel series – following Fortune Cookie and No Cream in the Middle).

Don’t ask me how I did it, but I managed to complete my first novella earlier this year as well. I can’t give away too much about the book yet, but I will say it’s about the dangers of online dating – something many people can relate to in today’s society. Look out for it in the Spring of 2020. But wait, there’s more. This November, I will be releasing a joint novel with the amazing author, Akela Renae. That book is definitely the most steamy piece of work I have ever been a part of. What better way to celebrate the release of my 10th book with a joint effort – my first time doing such a venture.

July 4th also marks 8 years since the launch of my website. As a small token of my gratitude for all of you supporting my blogs, writing, poetry, publishing and events, I am doing a special holiday sale! From now until July 4th at midnight, head on over to the Peauxetic Expressions Shop (CLICK HERE) to receive $4 off any book (with FREE shipping) and $5 off on T-shirts!
