Ah, my spreadsheets… I have a lot of them, and I’m very attached to them. Once I realized my little contemporary drama was going to be not-so-little, I started a spreadsheet to track a few things, and in retrospect I’m so glad I did. It’s far easier to work on timelines and lists as youContinue reading “My Spreadsheets”

Caleb’s House Rules
There are lots of missing rules because I’m not sure even Caleb can come up with 213+ of these things. And while the numbers are allegedly arbitrary within the household, I kept track because – as you can imagine – Wynter kept track. So, here they are – all the rules mentioned in the booksContinue reading “Caleb’s House Rules”
The Shed
Probably the most bizarre little art project I’ve ever done… It’s the shed! You know, the shed. It’s mentioned in every book of the Wynter Wild series, and The Beat Goes On (book 10) there are several flashbacks to the ashram and to this sanctuary where Wynter, Xay and Roman used to meet at night,Continue reading “The Shed”
Broken Strings (Wynter Wild Book 9) is OUT NOW in paperback
Broken Strings is book 9 of the Wynter Wild series, and it’s OUT NOW in paperback. Given the downfall of one of my (five) favorite characters, this was perhaps the hardest book to write so far. The quote on the image there is from Patricia, who senses something isn’t quite right in the Fairn householdContinue reading “Broken Strings (Wynter Wild Book 9) is OUT NOW in paperback”
Minor Key (Wynter Wild Book 8) is OUT NOW in paperback
Minor Key is book 8 of the Wynter Wild series, and it’s out today in paperback! If you’ve been collecting the paperbacks and want a matching set, grab this one quick. In a few months I’ll be relaunching the series with new covers. It’s been well over a year since I finished this book, andContinue reading “Minor Key (Wynter Wild Book 8) is OUT NOW in paperback”
Duet (Wynter Wild Book 7) is OUT NOW in paperback
New paperback out today! Duet is the seventh book in the series and introduces a new POV character Xay. We’ve already heard a bit about him in the previous books, of course. Getting into his head was a refreshing change from the other four characters. He has a positive optimistic outlook on life, making theContinue reading “Duet (Wynter Wild Book 7) is OUT NOW in paperback”
Natural Harmonics (Book 6) is OUT NOW in paperback
I’m slowly converting my ebooks to paperbacks, and the newest release is Natural Harmonics (Wynter Wild Book 6). This is one of my personal favorites in the series because I finally got to write about the family out and about in Seattle playing their music. Wynter and her brothers are ready to rock venues allContinue reading “Natural Harmonics (Book 6) is OUT NOW in paperback”
Broken Strings (Book 9) is Out Now!
This was probably the hardest book to write in the series so far, for two reasons. Firstly, because it was the first book where I was starting from scratch. While I wrote half a million stream-of-consciousness words a few years ago that became the basis for all ten books, once I put the scenes inContinue reading “Broken Strings (Book 9) is Out Now!”
The Ashram at Touchstone Pass
Do you get a visual image of the layout of a place when you read about it? I have a very firm impression in my mind of the ashram in the Wynter Wild books, but I’ve never actually drawn a map. Now that I’m writing flashbacks for book 10 (The Beat Goes On), where weContinue reading “The Ashram at Touchstone Pass”
Xay’s Playlist
It’s not really a spoiler to say that in the forthcoming and final book of the Wynter Wild series (The Beat Goes On), Xay Morant is going to launch his singing career. He’s a rockstar through and through (or will be, he hopes!) – and I’ve put together this playlist to give you an ideaContinue reading “Xay’s Playlist”
