I am a writer, a mother and a wife. Not necessarily in that order.

Newsletter stuff

Hey gang. So lots of stuff was revealed in the last newsletter. I will be writing a short story soon that is exclusive to the newsletter people so you might want to get signed up. Also, I revealed that I have fan fiction posted at fanfiction.net and wattpad under the user name invisame if you want to check that out. I encouraged people to check out my writing related Pinterest boards and last but not least I revealed the cover for the final Realm Walker book. I am madly in love with it. Check it out.

Pre-order

I’ve been busy. Becoming Mrs. Kendrick is now available for pre-order on Amazon. May 15, 2017 is the official release date. Yay. Preorder here

BecomingMrsKendrick

The time has come for Juliana Norris to say ‘I do’. Marrying Thomas Kendrick shouldn’t be that complicated. After all, they love each other and all they want is a simple ceremony. But once they throw in a former demi-goddess of love, the dark fae god of death and a plethora of other supernatural beings, things get chaotic.

 To make matters worse, Juliana finds herself the temporary guardian of a baby yeti that needs to be returned to its pod. Another task made more complicated than it should be when she discovers yetis have white signatures, making them almost impossible to track in the snow. Juliana’s niece Rachel wants to keep the fluffball, Thomas wants to kill it, and Juliana just wants all this over with.

 

Sacrificed

So I might have neglected to mention that I had a new project. Fact of the matter is, while I had written since the stroke, I still wasn’t confident in my ability. I heard about the Kindle Worlds over on Amazon and decided to write a book in the world of the Vampire Diaries just to make sure I remembered what I was doing. (and I had a great idea) I did and I wrote a book. The first in a trilogy actually. It was accepted and went live today so I have an unexpected new release to share with you.

And I have it on good authority it is easy to follow even if you’ve never seen the show.

2015-256-Kathleen Collins Sacrificed

One person can change everything, including a hybrid’s heart.

Cassidy Grimes was just a simple witch until the day her parents died in a car accident. She was saved for a purpose–to help the Original hybrid, Niklaus Mikaelson, break his curse. Cassidy spends the next seven years learning everything there is to know about the Original family and the curse.

When she finally finds Niklaus and his brother Elijah–or rather, they find her–she discovers the task is more difficult than she imagined. The Originals have been around for a thousand years and Niklaus trusts no one, not even his own family. But Cassidy will do whatever she needs to see the curse broken, even if it means she must be sacrificed.

Unfinished Muse by R.L. Naquin

I am blessed in my life to have some very good friends who are also incredible writers. One of them is this lady. Her books are original and funny. Definitely take the time to check them out. This is from the first book in her Mt. Olympus Employment Agency series.

I’d owned that potted philodendron for two years without it ever uttering a word–so naturally, I ignored it when it finally spoke up.

Love it!

Beauty by Robin McKinley

I love a good fairytale retelling and this is one of my faves.

I was the youngest of three daughters. Our literal-minded mother named us Grace, Hope and Honour, but few people except perhaps the minister who had baptized all three of us remembered my given name.

Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite fairytales and this is a beautiful rendition of it.

Realm Walker by Me

I would hope most of you have read this book. If not, go get it. Seriously, I’ll wait. First line from first book. Still love it as much as I did when I wrote it the first time.

Juliana didn’t want to die in the cold Canadian snow. Of course, she hadn’t wanted to die on the rain-slicked streets of Bern, the sheets of her freshly made bed or the backwoods of Alabama either, but that hadn’t stopped it from happening just the same.

Realm Walker, Kathleen Collins

That was the line that began it all.
