Hey it’s time for the magical rambling schedule post I warned you all about! Enjoy a peek at the upcoming madness for this year! xD
1. Ready To Cash Out
As of this posting, I’m a few chapters into this WIP about Boss Cold’s half-brother. I had originally wanted this done by the end of last year but bahhh life, sickness, holidays, rawrghhh. I am planning to get it out asap so hopefully uh Feb/March-ish. Somewhere in there.
It depends on 1) how fast I finish, 2) how fast my beloved proofreader can proof, and then 3) up to my publisher to do their thing. Feb/March is probably a bit too early tbh with everything that has to happen, but that’s my tentative brain guess right now. Hopeful brain guess? Very hopeful. xD
2. Untitled – Boss Cold and Jimmy Book
YUP. ITS THE END. THE LAST BOOK /SOBSSSS! As soon as I finish Ready To Cash Out, I am jumping right into the final book for Boss Cold and Jimmy. This is it. It is time to say bye-bye to my very first boys and I’m sad but excited. I struggled a lot with finishing this series for a lot of reasons, some of them a bit too personal to get into soooo we won’t go there, but please know I never wanted to write anything for Jimmy and Cold until I knew I was actually ready. <333
I’m ready now and as bittersweet as it is, I’m really proud of what I’ve done. Hell, I can see how much my writing has improved since Cold Hard Cash, and the series seriously got better and better as I went. So, eee, that’ll be out March/April-ish? I am not sure. Depends on how fast I write the other book, this book, and dealing with whatever else the universe decides to throw at me. X_X
3. 13 Days of Monsters Making Love: Volume 2
Yeahhh! The sweet and steamy monsters are coming back for another round! Mozzarus Scout and I have already been hard at work brewing up another batch of sexy sweet monsters for you guys to enjoy! We’re hopinggg for a February 14th release date but eeeek! We’ll see if we can make it! If not, we’ll just roll it out as soon as we can. We’ll make up a new holiday. Official Monster Fucking Day or something idek. xD
4. La Famiglia Mostro
Once I leave the mafia land of Strassen Springs, I will be returning to Somerstown for another heaping dose of monster mobsters! Sariel is technically next unless I totally change my mind because I’m really torn about how to handle the outline for this series. If I do Brother/Side Character/Brother/Side etc with one final book for Lou and Neil, that’s NINE books. That would be another crazy ass long series like Sucker For Love. X_X
I considered splitting up the series into TWO–one for the brothers and then one for the side peeps, but I’m afraid that’s going to be confusing because the overall storyline affects all the characters. SO UHHHH it’s either gonna be Sariel or Mr. Heiss next and either one or two series. WE SHALL SEE WHAT HAPPENS! xD xD xD
4. Semi-Secret Daddy and Serial Killer Boy
This is a sexy ol’ book that Mozz and I wrote for fun and we think it’s pretty damn awesome. The only issue is that we never finished it. I wouldn’t say it’s much of a secret technically but is very near and dear to our wicked little hearts. Because of the length (even without the ending!), there is a chance that it may have to be released as a duology but we shall see! Once we finish up Monsters Making Love, I thinkkk this is gonna be our next project together.
Unless we get distracted by something shiny. ^^;;
A legit concern!
5. Super Secret Squirrel Mafia Series
A few of you already know about this because I am terrible at keeping secrets and I’m SO EXCITED. Also, I know I said earlier I didn’t want to start another series but uh I meant that I didn’t want to start another one ALONE! YEAH! HA! Me and my dear Mozz are going to start cooking up something wonderful and very naughty, and YES, it will be set in the Cold Hard Cash universe.
So, as I’ve discussed in other blog posts, we will see Boss Cold and Jimmy again. It will be as cameos in this new series, plus some other familiar faces from the CHC world. It’s never goodbye! Just a see ya later! <333
That’s all I can say for meow though, but that will be coming soooon. Summer-ish, I think. Yeah.
6. Super Secret Squirrel Collab Project
Shhh. It’s a secret. That’s all I can say. Oh! And it will be a monster romance coming out this fall. xD
7. Goddammit Robots
I have literally had the cover for I don’t even know how long, and the book is WRITTEN. It’s literally WRITTEN and I have been dragging ass on editing it for like three years because REASONS. Real talk is that I’ve grown a tonnn as an author since writing it and I’m really unhappy with it now. The plot, the character development, the smut, the everything. There is an insane part of me that really, really wants to start over completely from scratch but omfg who knows. I am super determined to get it done finally so the cover will stop taunting me.
Or it will just roll over… for another year. WE SHALL SEE! xD xD xD
8. Spooky Short Story Thingie
There. That’s it. Another secret surprise thingie that will most likely be a monster romance. xD
9. Spooky Short Story Thingie #2
This is going to be confusing, but just hear me out! I have two awesome ideas for a secret project spooky short story, but I can’t decide which one I want to use for what. So I am going to write BOTH! One will released as a free short for my newsletter later on this year and the other will be released as part of a secret anthology thingie. Confused? ITS OKAY ME TOO! I really love both ideas and not sure which one is gonna end up fitting better for the anthology thingie so uhhhh we’ll see! I may be just as surprised as you guys! xD xD xD
10. All That Glitters
This is an old short story I plan to release as a newsletter freebie! You can actually find it upon my Patreon right now, but the eventual plan is to spruce it up a bit, release it as a newsletter freebie, and then Shoulda Swiped Left will go out to the Amazon pasture as other newsletter shorts have before! The preorder is up meow so keep your eyeballs peeled for All That Glitters coming to youuuuu!
You’ll be able to read it on my blog or download it through my newsletter! <333
11. 8 Days of Monstrous Pride
June! You know what’s up. <333
The theme is going to be stories inspired by colors of the Monster Fucker pride flag. Now, there are several versions of this flag with various meanings, but I’m going to most likely use the one I first encountered on Tumblr! More on that later and what charity I’ll be raising money for later, darlings! <333
12. 13 Days of Monster F#cking: Volume 4
As always, this will be a sexy sexyyyy release for Halloween from me and Mozzie, and it will only available to preorder and purchase through my website.
13. Here Comes Santer Claus
This will also be available as a newsletter freebie as soon as the anthology comes out of KU (March? I think? I need to check on that oops). I plan to edit it and add slash expand upon it before releasing it as a little novella later this year for the holidays!
14. I’m Forgetting Something
Probably. xD
Also keep in mind that this list isn’t exactly chronological. I edit stuff, write my own stuff, and write stuff with Mozz at the same time, so there’s really no telling what’s actually going to get done when except for the things I can’t tell you.
Yes, that’s intentionally vague. Some projects have release dates, some do not, and I can’t say which is which yet. xD xD xD
15. Other Fun Stuff!
Mozzarus Scout and I have launched our very own Ream for super taboo content, there is a new special edition of one of my mafia books coming soon through the super awesome Brightside Candles, and uhhhh LOTS OF NEW STUFF! I will not be doing any cons this year due to my physical health and still feeling the strain of traveling so much last year agh! There is also a super cool and super sexy project that I will be announcing soon to celebrate the end of the Cold Hard Cash series so keep your eyeballs peeled for that toooo as soon as I have more info!
I’m super, SUPER excited for all the things and here’s hoping 2024 kicks a super megaton of booty!
As always, you can stalk me over at Patreon to see what I’m up to and all my socials! <333
