ALKU CHRONICLE JAN 2026

A fresh start…


Author’s Note:

It’s officially 2026, and time for a fresh start!

There’s a ton of cool stuff happening this year, but my absolute favorite planned item is that Marco’s book is scheduled for release in June! For those who don’t know, Marco is one of my absolute favorite characters, and while his book is…dark and painful and different from the others in the series so far, it’s my favorite book I’ve written to date. I cannot wait to share it with you.

Keeper’s Reign and Earth, Beast, Metal are both participating in multiple stuff your Kindle events throughout the year, and I’ll be continuing and expanding the in-person events I’m attending this year as well.

It’s only the first week of the year, but I’m already excited and ready for the coming fun.

*holds out hand* Come. Join us in the trees.

Single mom. Witch. Chaos magnet. Definitely not in love. (Probably.)
