Book Excerpt from The Fall of the Codex

Since I’ve been hard at work getting the edits done on The Fall of the Codex, I thought I’d share a fun *unedited* book excerpt! There are SO MANY SUPERPOWERS in this book, y’all, which was so fun to write. This excerpt gives you a little taste of that — plus, you get to see my OG couple, Grady and Kayla, do their thing again. Which is always good, right?

(Spoiler alert: If you haven't read The Secret of the Codex yet, there are a few light spoilers here, but nothing that will ruin the story. Just wanted you to be aware. 😉)

Enjoy!

Thanksgiving Excerpt (The Prophecy of the Codex)

Did you know that The Prophecy of the Codex takes place over Thanksgiving?

So to celebrate the holiday, I thought I’d drop in an excerpt that references it!

Enjoy!

The Prophecy of the Codex Book Excerpt

Kayla and the rest of the Four, along with Na-um and Holun, met an hour later in the mess tent, early enough that the lunch crowd hadn’t shown up yet. Though there wouldn’t be much of a “crowd” anyway—staffing for the dig was light this late in the fall semester. Most had already gone home for Thanksgiving, which was only a few days away.

A Book Excerpt to Celebrate Two Weeks Until Launch!

That’s right! We’re only two weeks away from the launch of The Prophecy of the Codex, book 2 in the Codex series.

So to celebrate, I thought I’d give you a really fun excerpt. It’s a bit lengthy, but it’s about Holun (who you met in book 1, The Secret of the Codex) and Yatzil (who we meet in book 2). And it’s SO FUN. I love these two so much.

Enjoy!

Book Excerpt from The Prophecy of the Codex

Today I thought I’d do something I haven’t done here in a while: Share a book excerpt! It’s been too long.

And since I’m starting the edits for The Prophecy of the Codex really soon (c’mon Melissa!), I thought I’d share a scene from that book! (I’m planning for a release later this year. 😱)

First, here’s an inspo pic to help you try to picture the *unedited* scene, which is near the beginning of the book.

Also, while you’re reading this scene, play this song. You’ll thank me later.

I Quit My Job Today

I quit my job today.

Today’s not the day I drafted up a letter, asked to meet with my boss, and handed in my resignation. I did that weeks ago. No, today’s the day I’m done.

My last day at my day job.

As I write this way too early in the morning, since it’s becoming apparent that on the days of my big life events I can’t seem to stay asleep, I’m filled with a mix of emotions. I have a knot in my stomach, but kind of in a good way, you know? My body is thrumming, buzzing, my nervous system keyed up for what I know is coming today. And yes, there will probably be tears.

I’m nervous, excited, anxious, happy, nostalgic, ready, TERRIFIED.

What if I fail? What if I succeed? What if I can’t make the entrepreneur life work? What if I’m not cut out for this?

But what if I am?
