Save the Date! I’ll be hosting an Amaranthine Saga & Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox Author Q&A, beginning on Friday, May 4, 2018. You may ask questions, fling speculations, and maybe even address yourselves directly to the cast and crew. Other festivities will coincide. Oh, this will be fun! ::twinkle::
I have permission from chunxing to share a series of sketches she created for Tsumiko, the title character in Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox. Isn’t it lovely when an artist can give us a range of expressions and mood, filling in several facets of a personality? Thank you, chunxing! Continue reading
Out of Stock. You haven’t received your pre-ordered book yet? You’re not alone.
If you have a print edition of Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox on order from Amazon (like me), you probably received an update this week with Continue reading
In the Amaranthine Saga, those who stand between the human and inhuman races are reavers. So naturally, some of main characters in Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox are members of the In-between. Like Sansa, whose designation is battler. Continue reading

Media Mail. Another stack of signed books went out this afternoon. If you were one of those who reserved a book earlier … or if you talked to me before this posting, your copy’s in the mail! Based on feedback from the last few batches, your package should arrive in one week. ::twinkle::
Available copies are going fast. I’m updating that status on this post >>
I’ve never been one to go into great detail over physical descriptions of my characters. Simply not my style. Other traits—personality, preferences, impulses, interaction—are more interesting to me. Yet here I am, hammering out descriptions and chasing down refs for FoxOfTwilight. May these portraits encourage your imaginations in a more definitive direction! ::twinkle:: Continue reading
A Box from the Printer! Once again, a small stack of books in this new batch are already spoken for, but I do have several copies of Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox available. If you’re interested…

I’ll let you know when we’re close to the bottom of the stack, but it’s first come, first served. And as always, I have signed and numbered bookplates available for those who’ve already purchased the book elsewhere. ::twinkle::

Finding the Words. Let’s do another challenge that will help create buzz for Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox. There’s already a Photo Challenge underway (ends 5/22), and I’m loving the entries that have already turned up. This time, let’s focus on reviews. They’re a practical necessity for any author and quite possibly the BEST way any reader can lend their support.
Guidelines. Let’s keep this as straightforward as possible. Review Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox, and you’ll be entered into a drawing. Continue reading
There’s been a small clamor for story art for Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox, so I’ve been working behind the scenes with FoxOfTwilight to create a series of cast portraits. We’ll start with the main characters, and over the weeks ahead, we’ll add to the collection. Beginning with the title character—Tsumiko Hajime.
Prepping Another Batch. I can hardly believe that nearly all the books I ordered from the printer (with my super-seekurt author powers) are already spoken for, but… they are. SO! If you’ve been considering purchasing a signed book from me, I have 3 copies 2 copies 1 copy still up for grabs. First come, first served you juuust missed this round, but you can hop onto a waiting list for the next batch. And you can of course still purchase personalized, numbered book plates for books ordered elsewhere. (Or for your scrapbook, as some have done!) ::twinkle::

Since they keep flying out of here, I do have more books on order. But I think (really, really hope) Amazon will fill outstanding orders before those arrive. (My poor, poor sales stats.) I will keep you posted.
The books I shipped out a week ago have begun arriving at their destinations, and that means snapshots for the Photo Challenge. Here’s Jelena’s entry!
Keep them coming! The challenge has been extended until 4/22, so you have plenty of time to enter. More details here >>
Quick Update: inquiries through proper channels have come up with a baffling response from my printer. The only reason for Amazon’s delay in fulfilling your pre-orders is… Amazon. We’re at their whim and mercy, I’m afraid. Thank you for your continued patience. Their delay has me rejigging my schedule for our fun and games. And I’m issuing an extension for the Photo Challenge.
More time to get creative! I’ve extended the Photo Challenge by another month, so you have until April 22, 2018 to take part. All the details here >>
