Where did the year go?

And some book money for you!

Mahalo,

I’m writing this edition of The Writer Gal Letter listening to Summer is For Falling In Love by Sara Kang and the rain patters relentlessly down my window. Did you know the sound the rain makes has a word? It’s called “pitter-patter”.

I’m in a strangely reflective mood as I look back over the year that’s gone. And, for the first time, I’m more grateful and happy about the things I’ve done than the things I haven’t. (PAPERBACKS, Aarti. PAPERBACKS!) It’s also a little weird writing a 15-min talk about me, myself, and I. My main concern is coming off either too humble-braggy or too grandiose.

But, either way, I know one thing for sure. Things are definitely going to shake up massively - with the books, with my past releases, with EVERYTHING in 2022 and beyond. I absolutely cannot wait to share it all with you, Postmate. For now, though:

The TEDx Talk and The Storytel Audiobook original. I’m also, I promise, thinking of the epilogue for Lena and Shane’s book AND Drake’s extra special epilogue.

Xander is Free!

So, for the first time in years, Alexander and Sasha’s explosive military royal romance is free! I have, once again, retitled this story because, of all my books, this series has been the hardest to pin down. It’s an action-adventure. It’s a love story. It’s a royal romance. It’s a military suspense thriller. It’s like my brain decided to do EVERYTHING with it and the result was 100K words of pure deliciously chaos.

Presenting Renegade - part of Those Dangerous Royals!

Speaking of Chaos, you’ll find a certain new release as #2 of this series, instead of the Bastard Billionaires. Because, well…Lena belongs with Xander and not with Anya.

Anyway, try Xander for free today if you’ve not yet read this series yet.

Writer Gal’s Writer Pals Present

In this edition, are many new releases by dear author friends as well as discount and for-nothing events! Check them all out or whatever grabs your fancy. Happy reading, as always, Postmate.

The first is an exclusive two day event where you get all the books for practically nothing! Click the shiny pink button and grab em ASAP.

One of my dearest author friends, Fiona Murphy, is hoping to hit the USA Today bestseller list with her new release. It’s only 99c to grab right now and I SO hope we help her reach the goal, Postmate. (Confession: I too would like to hit the USAT sometime in the next two years so helping my friend achieve this dream makes mine doable. Know what I mean? :))

Next up is Mika Lane’s cute Christmasy novel My Christmas Quarantine. I don’t know about you guys but I believe this looks like my Christmas wish come true!

Next up is Kristen Kelly’s Leading Him, also only for 99c. Who doesn’t want a sweet dancer with a gruff cowboy romance to brighten up the doom of winter, am I right?!

There are even more discounts and for-nothing events for you to check out. And find more awesome romance authors to hound and stalk and follow. Happy reading, Postmate!
