Xenagogue – and more!

Well, we did it, it’s March! As the date says in a few days, March forth and buy books!

At the university where I work, students are, mostly, in the swing of things. Exams, homework, excuses, the works. I have my pattern of getting things done as well. I’m trying to stay on top of my work so I can write my new series. No one said any of this was easy, but it is fun!

Anyway, I sent the ARCs out for Xenagogue. If you signed up, please check your email. It will have come from bookfunnel, not me. That’s the site I can send eBooks out from. So far, the few people who’ve read it have given the story good reviews!

Xenagogue - book Book 1 of Pebble Stone Chronicles

Veiled Phoenix is part of an online book fair. This event goes on for over a month, and you can win prizes. You should go and check it out! Get discount and free books! What a deal.

check it out here: https://clcannon.net/bookfair/

Speaking of Veiled Phoenix, I’m pretty sure Battle Phoenix will be out in audio hopefully this week!

Let me know if you want me to email out the first chapter of the new book. It won’t be edited, but it could be fun!

Books and More Books

Hi my friends! I wanted to send this out last night, but it was Monday.

Let’s start at the beginning and work through all the fun and exciting news. First of all, I am about half way through editing Xenagogue! Yep, that means the editor got the manuscript back to me and I’m slogging through all their notes. Book 1 of Pebble is a reality!

Pre-Order Xenagogue
Xenagogue – Available April 11, 2025

Now, if you wanted to be an ARC reader, and just never signed up, here is your last chance. I’ll take applicants through February 27th. My goal is to send out the eBooks on March 1st, or maybe the 28th if I’m really on top of the ball! Sign up here.

Now, why might I NOT be on the ball, you ask? Teaching? Grading? Classes? Nope. I started a whole new series. A dystopian fantasy. Maybe I’ll send out the first chapter, what d’ya think?

As for our favorite phoenix, Ember, well her final story, Battle Phoenix, is out. You all knew this. The audiobook is in review. It’s been there since Friday. It takes up to ten days, so I expect, if you love audiobooks as much as I do, you’ll be able to listen to the story, soon!

Mid-Summer Books! 😍📚🎧

Hi my friends. As many of you know, Veiled Phoenix is out in the world! My mom, who had read the first three Jade books, read it. She said she wanted to wait for Moonstone Phoenix before reading the remainder of the Jade series. So … I guess she liked it! 🤣 That said, I’m hoping to get her to finish Jade’s college years.

When I was in Paris last summer, Andrea Kummer contacted me, saying she was interested in narrating the Jade Stone Chronicles. Getting books narrated is scary, but exciting … and very expensive.

Just over a month ago, I was in Kenosha, at a book fair, and I met Kassandr Novell. She is an up and coming narrator from Wisconsin. She sent me a book she’s worked on. Then, as things go, we got to talking and it turned out, she loved Veiled Phoenix. As of now, she has six chapters left to narrate. I can’t see it taking her more then a few days to get them done. Then ACX has to double check everything.

Yes, it’s true. The audiobook for the Ember Savita Chronicles will not wait for the full trilogy to be out!

Tomorrow I will be part of a facebook book party. A group of authors are congratulating an author whose book is coming out soon. If you’ve never been to one of these parties, I can’t suggest them highly enough.

For several hours, every thirty minutes a new author tells you about themselves, what they write, and offers something for free. All you have to do is interact with the posts and you can win signed books, or eBooks, or all sorts of things. I’ve won a ton of things in the past. They are fun, and always worth it.

When: Tomorrow, July 15, noon to 9pm Easter Standard Time, US. twelve hundred to twenty-one hundred…

Where? The Queens Library on Facebook.

Other fun news. I am part of an anthology. Paw and Pen International have put together their second anthology of cat short stories. The book comes out tomorrow. Both the first and second book are on sale right now for $2.99, but will increase to $4.99 very soon. You should go and check these books out. A lot of great authors have contributed.

If you read book 7 of Jade: Pack Presents, and wondered where those cats came from, the short story is in the second of these two books: Meowgical Tails

The first book, PurrAnormal Tails is also full of great stories.

You should get out and check them BOTH out right away. All the profits go to cat rescue, not the authors or anyone else. It is such a great organization!

Anyway, hope your July is going great!

It’s 2024!

Hi my friends! I am beyond excited for the new year. The end of 2023 was a bit rough. That said, I can’t believe the last of the Jade Stone Chronicles came out!

Did any of you read the short story? What did you think? I’d love to hear back from you.

I’m about to start writing the last of the phoenix books. It will be a trilogy. I don’t know that I’ll write more in that world, but at the start, Wolf Healer was a stand alone, so, we’ll see.

BIG NEWS!!!

Today, January 1st, for one day only, there is a HUGE FREE EBOOK EVENT. You may know of the free romance event, but this is different, it’s fantasy book. Moreover, you do NOT need to join a newsletter to get the books. All these books have been set to free on TODAY! Check it out!

Most of you have read Wolf Healer, but that’s the book I’ve submitted. That said, there are many other books you can find!

As a reminder, if you want to come meet me and maybe check out some of my other books, get something signed, in a couple of weeks I’ll be at Studio Moonfall in Kenosha, Wisconsin. It is an absolutely lovely bookstore everyone should check out. Not only does it have great books and book stuff, it supports so many authors and author events!

Lastly, if you want to join the ARC (advanced reader copy) team for Veiled Phoenix, the first of the phoenix shifter series, sign up here. I don’t think I’ll be ready to publish for a few months, but of course, y’all will be the first to know!

Surviving September

September, for only having 30 days, was a hard month for me. I am hoping in my heart of hearts, it was a wonderful month for you! I just seemed to have more thing to do than I had minutes in the day. That said, it is the end of the month.

Jade, and the six main books are out. Woot! I am so excited to be able to say that. The books are written, edited, they have covers, and they are published. The first book is out as an audiobook.

Here is where I have a BIG FAVOR to ask of you. Can you go to your local library and request the audiobook of Wolf Healer? You don’t even have to listen to it, though Andrea Kummer has done a fantastic job bringing the characters to life. I’d love for you to buy the audiobook, but requesting it at the library works, too.

Speaking of Andrea, she’s finished recording all the tracks for Epsilon, it just needs to go through processing, and book 2 will be available to purchase as well. That means, if you do listen to book 1, you can probably, immediately request book 2 and listen to it!

In other news, the Christmas Novella, Pack Present is up on Amazon and ready for it’s pre-order. I’ll be bringing you more about that in the next newsletter.

In other news, on October 6th, I’m part of a group that’s offering over 130 FREE fantasy books.

I’ll send the link out to you on the 6th so you can download all the free books your heart desires!!
