Changes Coming in 2026 Swipe to read (Whether I like it or not)

At this stage in my publishing career, I knew I wanted to make some changes anyway to prioritize book related in-person events.

The past few months have been difficult, to say the least. As a result, I may need to cut back on in-person events for 2026.

After my next follow up with my doctor, we will likely do more tests / experiments. The side effects from this past round have been very tough on my body. I do not know what side effects (if any) I’ll be dealing with in the new year.

Also, I am STILL waiting on a CT scan (yay...)

I'll be making some changes to which in-person events I attend. Some are good & I've been planning them for a while. Some are not so good & outside of my control. All I can do is take 2026 as it comes & hope for the best!

Tomorrow! There'll be some fantastic authors there & I'll also have plenty of Blind Date Purge bundles so there'll be something for everyone. It's a great chance to get yourself a gift or do some Xmas shopping for the book lover in your life.
