You know how I keep saying how much I love Anne McCaffrey’s stories? Well, when I closed out the two major series under my Celia Roman pen name, I thought, why not write some good, old-fashioned McCaffrey-style Science Fiction, but with some smexy times thrown in? I liked the idea so much, that I tweaked…Continue reading Cover Reveal for a Brand New Series!

Sweet Surrender, the follow up to my first Science Fiction Romance novel The Choosing, is now available for preorder [Amazon affiliate link]. Tyelu’s story has been a long, long time in the making.

Sunshine Walkingstick Series
As you probably already know, I write Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Mystery under the name Celia Roman. This year, I closed out my two major series written under that name, the Vanessa Kinley, Witch PI Series and the Sunshine Walkingstick Series [Amazon affiliate links]. While the Vanessa Kinley novels have been part of Amazon’s Kindle…Continue reading Sunshine Walkingstick Series
News Roundup
The blog posts hosted on my old Weebly site have now been completely moved to this one. Some irrelevant ones were deleted, a few carried over without their accompanying pictures, and I tried to update what URLs I could, to aid with navigation and SEO. Other than that, they were (largely) moved wholesale without any…Continue reading News Roundup

Note: Originally published in my newsletter on 18 May 2024. *** Tyelu af Alna’s story, the sequel to my first SciFi Romance The Choosing, is well underway.

The Right Cover at Last?
The Choosing (The Pruxnae, Book 1) has undergone so many cover changes, I’m almost afraid to introduce another one. Yet here we are with what I hope will be the right cover for this awesome Space Opera Romance. I know, I know. I said the last cover, a “man chest” cover created by Open World…Continue reading The Right Cover at Last?
When will the final Daughters of the People novel be available?
The question resting heavy in the minds of long-time fans of the Daughters of the People Series is: When will the final novel be available? I’ve been promising it for years now, but have hit snag after snag with it. I’d like to walk through a few of those snags today to give readers an…Continue reading When will the final Daughters of the People novel be available?
There’s a big WHOOPS in the latest newsletter. (My bad.)
I did a big whoopsie when I sent out the latest newsletter half an hour ago: the title was “Two characters that insisted on having their own stories.” And while I did include news on the $.99 Spring Break Sale for those two books, I completely forgot to include a discussion pertaining to the title.…Continue reading There’s a big WHOOPS in the latest newsletter. (My bad.)
Spring Break Sale
As a prelude to (finally!) writing War’s Last Refuge, I’m rereading select Daughters of the People novels. Recently, I reread Say Yes, a spinoff of Tempered, an interstitial novel in the Daughters of the People Series that was a finalist in the Georgia Romance Writer’s Maggie Award for Excellence in 2015 in the Paranormal Romance…Continue reading Spring Break Sale
Banana Split Landscapes?
I was rereading The Choosing the other day and ran across an interesting typo: near-dessert. My first thought was, “What kind? Banana splits? Brownies? Raspberry swirl cheesecake?” That would make for quite the alien landscape, eh? But, of course, what I meant was near-desert. The funniest thing about this isn’t the imagery of people living…Continue reading Banana Split Landscapes?
