Publishing Annversary--20 Years!

 Twenty years ago, my first book was published by Ellora's Cave. Since then, I’ve had 122 books published with a variety of publishers—Ellora’s Cave, Samhain Publishing, Carina Press, Beyond the Page Publishing, The Naughty Literati, Entangled Publishing, Evernight Publishing, and a variety of indie anthologies.


 



(Some original covers and some reprint covers. Not all books are currently available.)


What a strange and wonderful ride it’s been since that fateful day back in 2004. None of it would have been possible without the amazing publishers and editors I’ve had the privilege to work with. I’ve learned so much and continue to grow and learn with each book I write.

 

A heartfelt thanks to everyone who has every purchased and read one of my books. Because of you, it’s been possible for me to make a living as a writer. It’s been a gift to me. It’s impossible for you to know how much it’s meant and continues to mean to me.

 

Thank you to my fellow writers for your support, kindness, and encouragement and for helping me spread the word about my books. (I suck at promo, so I really appreciate it.)

 

This is not an easy profession. There have been countless ups and downs over the past two decades—triumphs and tragedies, frustration and satisfaction, laughter and tears. There have been days I’ve almost thrown in the towel and given up, but at the end of the day, I love writing too much, even when I’m struggling to find the words.

 

Thank you for 20 amazing years. I look forward to many more.
