It has been pointed out to me that as a writer/author, I should be posting an annual “what I released this year” blog entry. Since I didn’t do this for 2017 (or ever, yet), here’s my publishing round-up for 2017 a mere six weeks late.
Books
Urban Fantasy: Valhalla
- Raven Quest (January 2017)*
The fourth book in the Valhalla series.(*The entire Valhalla series is currently being rebranded as the Rune Witch series, and the first four volumes have been unpublished in preparation for their re-release later this month.)
Sci-Fi / Romance: MARS
I published my first-ever science fiction romance titles in 2017 as a trio of books in the Mars Adventure Romance Series.

MARS book 1 - Lovers and Lunatics (June 2017)
