My new Vampire Diaries Book is available on Amazon!
I’m very excited to be part of Amazon’s new venture, and have published my story The Vampire Diaries: Tabula Rasa through the Kindle Worlds program. This lets authors “borrow” the characters from specific shows they’ve obtained permission from and spin their own realities. The authors retain ownership of any new characters they bring to the table, but we can build on each other’s worlds and the show could even decide to use our ideas if they like it enough.
I’m giving it a shot to see how it pans out, mostly to try and reach new readers, and also just because I love, love, love writing Damon in The Vampire Diaries. It’s a fun change to play in their world every now and again instead of my own, and with Tabula Rasa in particular, I had a lot of fun winking at established canon through my own eyes since it’s an amnesia story, the name inspired by one of my favorite episodes of Buffy.
Here is the blurb:
Tabula Rasa means blank slate, hence a perfect name for a fic about amnesia. The premise is this: Elena, Katherine, Caroline, Bonnie, Damon, Stefan, & Mason all wake to find themselves trapped in an abandoned warehouse with complete amnesia. Stripped of their past histories and all the baggage that comes with it, how will they interact with each other? Who can be trusted? And who has betrayal in their heart? Will we end up with canon pairings? Or will other true feelings be revealed? This story takes place after episode 2.5 Kill or be Killed, going completely AU after that.
Tell me what you want, what you really, really want
Hey Guys,
I’m waiting on my editing team to polish up the latest book, Miss Me When the Sun Goes Down, and editing Tabula Rasa, my Vampire Diaries fic for Kindle Worlds. This leaves approximately 35% of my brain available for thinking about the next book to work on. I’d planned to write the sequel to Pretty Witches All in a Row, but it occurred to me, I might want to ask folks to weigh in, see what you guys are wanting to read next. Do you want more of Nick and Annaliese or would you rather I get back to Mercy and the Fallen? Or what about some sexy demons? Or secret option number four? And since I love polls…

Miss Me When the Sun Goes Down Cover Reveal
Here is the cover for Miss Me When the Sun Goes Down that James has been working on. I love how lonely and gray it is, sort of fitting with Anja’s mood. And here is the blurb I’ve been working on for the fourth book in the Forged Bloodlines Series.
Little old me, Anja Evans – art college drop out, relative newbie in vampire society and newly single without Bishop by my side – the new Jarl of the Northwest? Great googly moogly… how did I get myself into these things?
There are new responsibilities for Anja to live up to as well as her growing entourage of friends crowding her out of house and home. With the news that Bishop is out of the picture, Jakob is back, his patience growing thin as he waits for Anja to put aside her petty distractions and take her place by his side. But Anja doesn’t want to spend her life as an ornament, she’s resolved to bring a sense of humanity back to the vampire community. With her newfound abilities (and a few well placed allies), the Order doesn’t stand a chance against Anja and her determination to provide Sanctuary to any vampire that needs it. But the dangers in Anja’s life might come from within the walls she’s built to keep herself safe.
