I’m so happy to know I’ve written this series. Five books it total!! When it all started, I knew the main storyline and approximately how many books it would take to write it, but I had NO idea of the time and dedication it would require.

This month my guests seem to mostly have murder on their minds. Well it is spooky season after all. I didn't ask for spooky or murdery books it just kind of went that way.

Berkano is a supernatural thriller about a young woman, George, whose ordinary, if frustrating, life is turned upside down when a family secret unlocks an ancient, terrifying power in her blood. Suddenly, she’s being hunted by the undead and chased across time to a sanctuary in the past just to catch her breath. But that’s not even the most stressful bit because she’s also basically a walking neon billboard for ancient evil entities that want to feed on those very same spirit

My guest this month is Jas Phoenix. Her debut novel Berkano has been recently published by Tepris Press.

My two most recent books, Letters from Shadow Oaks and A Carousel for Shade Tree, are both contemporary fictions. They don’t include any magic or fantasy elements.

Tell me about your books The Transcendent Series is about a girl (woman really, she’s 18/19 in the first book) who randomly, and rather inconveniently, body jumps into her past lives. The first book in the series, Transcendent, came out July 1st this year!

Tell me about your book The Boy with the Heart of Sea Glass is boy meets boy, but it’s much more than that. It’s about the healing power of love and found family. And how the relationships we choose, and those we don’t, impact us.

For this month’s list I had help from a number of humans. My thanks to Heather Lynn, Alexandra Peel, Cheryl Burman, Fi Phillips, and Ann Littler In each case the person making the recommendation is named in brackets after the title.

Since I last interviewed you, The Maddox Verdict has gone out into the world. How does it feel to have written a whole series? Lily, I don’t know yet. When I started all this almost ten years ago, I had no intention of writing a series. I wrote Adam’s Witness to basically save my sanity. Then people asked, “When is the next book coming out?” And I said, “Sorry . . . what?” Did I have another book in me? Well, I decided to give it a go. I suppose after the second one, I had be

When I last interviewed you in 2023 you had published three books, now it’s six. Can you update me on your books? Since 2023, I’ve written my Lightbody Mystery duology, telling the story of the fictional Martha Lightbody, a woman subjected to ‘trial by drowning’ in 1645. Before being thrown in the lake, Martha curses the men responsible. Her body is never found.
