Hard Mated is scheduled to be out Monday, Aug 20 (yay!). It's being line-edited/proofread even as we speak. Because this short novel is indie pubbed,
it can't be preordered, but as soon as it's "live" I'll send out a newsletter blast announcing the fact (as well as posting it here, on Twitter, Facebook, and my website).

Because uploading books on the Amazon, B&N, Kobo, and other sites is not an exact science,
don't be alarmed if it doesn't show up on the stroke of midnight on the 20th. I will do my best to get it live, but once I upload the files, the timing is out of my hands. It's usually pretty quick, though (24-48 hours). For those in the UK and other countries, it does take 3-4 days to cycle through to those sites.
A
print edition of this book will also be released as soon as I can get the cover made and the print proofs back to me for checking. That takes about a week or two, depending on a couple of factors.
Now then: I am also working on
Nightwalker, which I had to set aside to get
Hard Mated out in time.
Nightwalker is in its second draft. Meanwhile, I have to go through
Elliot McBride one more time for my publisher, and because I want that book to rock, I have to drop
Nightwalker once more and finish that by late next week. On top of all this, I have to write a novella for my publisher to turn in Sept. 1 (for the anthology
Unbound out in March). I will be working on Nightwalker around that, hope to have it out sometime next month. And
then I have the next full-length Shifter novel to get to my publisher by Oct 1.
Someday, I'll get to breathe!
