READ THIS! Author Q&A THIS Thursday, Kickstarters, New Book, & More!

I'm Home! I know, if I didn't tell you I was going on a trip, did I even leave? Well, I did leave, all stealth-like, but I'm home now, from a wedding, and getting ready to go to a military graduation next week.  So, family fun for me abounds this month, but other fun things abound, too, like the READ THIS! Author Q&A THIS Thursday that's going to be both spooky and fun. Plus there's more stuff, too, so let's get to it, shall we? We shall!

It's Alive! Double the Kitty. Double the Fun...and Mayhem. Issues with Australia need to be straightened out, so the White House sends the Vice President and his wife, aka Jeff and Kitty Katt-Martini, over to handle the situation, but before Kitty can make things worse, she's suddenly in another world -- one where she's been married to Charles Reynolds for years and aliens don't exist. Kitty's not the only one confused, because the Kitty from that world has taken her place in this one. Can they both save their respective days before it's too late to go home to the universes they belong to, or will one Kitty decide to keep the other's life...forever?

Last Hours of Kickstarter!   The Kickstarter for Unidentified Funny Objects 10 is almost over. There are still some cool rewards, but all my tuckerizations have sold (yay!). But you know you want to read "The Cat Lady Cometh," so don't miss out and race over to get in on the fun before it's too late!

Kickstarter's Still Going...Don't Miss Out! Disruptive Intent, where all the stories are going to be in-series and about fighting the power, has just launched! I'm not 100% sure, but, if we fund, it's looking like I'll be doing a Missy the Were-Pomeranian story. And you know you want another one of those, so head over and help support it today! PLUS, I'm offering 2 tuckerizations in the story, so if you've ever wanted to hang (or oppose) Beth and Missy, now's your chance!

A Reminder About Bookie Wookies... All of these are available now from Ginger Blue Publishing and available at your preferred retailer. If you haven't grabbed these yet, now's the time!

Double the Kitty. Double the Fun...and Mayhem. Kitty, and Nightcrawler, and Prince. Oh My!

Watch as it all gets real... What's the worth of one life?

You're invited to a party to die for! Welcome to the Belt...proceed with caution

The Jumping Game is on! Come for the scandal, stay for the explosions.

Welcome to Washington, check your Poofs at the door... The future looks utopian...until you look just a bit closer...

And baby makes...the bad guys rue the day they made Mama Kitty angry... Love, engagement, Poofs...and intergalactic war. What happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas...

More Kitty, and don't miss the gators! The Book That Started It All is alive again! Meet Kitty...all over again!

My first book of movie and TV reviews, and, as I may have mentioned a few times, it's an Amazon #1 bestseller, too! (Hey, a girl likes to share the coolness when she can!) The re-release of the first book in The Martian Alliance Chronicles. Things aren't what they seem when Princess Olivia of Andromeda jumps aboard a spaceship to escape a loveless marriage.

A group of mystery-solving grandmothers, a daring granddaughter, a surf bum, homeless men, and a mysterious stranger all involved in a series of brutal murders in a sleepy seaside town... The re-release of my first humor collection, now with bonus funny! Despite what you may have heard or believe, all the stories are true...well, almost all...

The story of the Old West's most notorious female outlaw, the infamous Belladonna. Available in Hardback, trade paperback, and ebook. Read the story that started it all... Stacey Weir didn't mean to become an amateur sleuth. But when her adoptive father's accused of murder, there was only one thing for her to do...

Friends to lovers romantic suspense set in and around New Orleans, now with an (extended) epilogue! (Re-release.) Mosaic post-apocalyptic novel set in the far future that's reverted to Old West ways, where love, friends, and family are what get you through.

A collection of paranormal tales, with new bonus stories and an introduction from the author of BITE CLUB. (Re-release.) A collection of all my humorous SF/F/P (non-Alien series) stories, together in one place for the first time!

A Big-Little FYI... Due to all the things happening with the Alien Series and other things, Deck the Falls is going to be a little late. Sadly it's more than a little late now, but the end is near and I'm hoping for an October release. Book 3 (Cruise the Falls) should be right back on schedule for March 2026 but may be moved to a first half of the year release, depending on what the publisher thinks. And, as soon as Deck the Falls is finalized, all y'all will, as always, be the first to know!
