A Tale of Two Kitties...and Fluffy is now available!

Greetings, friends!

I've slacked a little with website updates and social media posts because I was GRINDING to get A Tale of Two Kitties...and Fluffy published in time for a vacation that I had scheduled to leave for on July 31st. GOAL ACHIEVED! However, I literally had no time after the initial publication to make any announcements...until now.

But that's okay!

Because I have more exciting announcements:

1) Jelly Bracelets and Peanut Shells has been re-released with an updated cover design, updated interior design, and four new illustrations.

2) Book # 3, Peanut and Miss Perfect, has officially been announced here on the site. I'm targeting a "holiday season" publication date, so...wish me luck! ;)

3) On the business end of things, my trademark on the series title has now been able to move forward. According to trademark law, a series title trademark can only move forward through the annals of government filing once the second book (you know...the one that makes a series a series?...) becomes available for sale. This has been a crazy ride! :)

It is my sincerest aspiration at this point in time to put more focus on marketing and audience connection. Please stay tuned here on the site blog, and visit the let's connect page for my social media links!

Happy Reading :)

Book #2 Announcement!

Hello everyone! A lot has been happening "behind the scenes" here in my Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich™ workshop ;) I've revamped my socials, updated this website, and... *drumroll please...*

Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich™ Book # 2, A Tale of Two Kitties...and Fluffy, will be available THIS JULY!

This book will be narrated in the first person by Fluffy Ferrz, who appeared as a minor character in Jelly Bracelets and Peanut Shells. I finally finished the illustrations over Memorial Day Weekend, and am currently working on the book's layout design. After that comes all the super exciting stuff like applying for a Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN), adding a bar code, plugging in ISBNs, submitting for a full copyright...you know, administrative stuff! Everybody loves administrative stuff. ;P

As I work toward this publication goal as fast as I am able, please stay tuned here on the blog, follow my Instagram, and sign up for the newsletter :) I am excited to build a community for all things Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich™, and to get to know you...my audience!

Social Media Updates!

Hello Friends!

Who else struggles when it comes to "putting yourself out there" in the world, and having the right amount of confidence to do so? Does anyone else find him/herself caught between the self-promotion and staying humble? I sure do!

If there's one thing I'm learning (and doing my best to embrace), it's the notion that we SHOULD be boasting our talents and achievements to the world. Why? Because no one else can BE YOU and have YOUR UNIQUE TALENT! I absolutely LOVE seeing my friends' wins in life, whether it's a career success, life milestone, or pursuit of a hobby. So...why should I shy away from sharing mine?

That being said, I took time today to set up and streamline my social media platforms for 2025. Here are all the places you can find me! :)
