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!
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?
Cover Reveal and Relaunch Announcement!
Happy Cover Reveal Wednesday!
Just wanted to drop in really quickly to reveal my new cover for my first book, The Secret of the Codex! It will be live November 12, 2019, with a new cover and new content (perhaps a snippet from book 2??). Barring any issues. 😊
Hope you love it!
Book Two Announcement: TITLE, UPDATE, and SYNOPSIS
It's time I caught you up on Book Two!
Codex Series Book Two TITLE!
Earlier this year, I finished the first draft of my second book in the Codex series! That's right — The Secret of the Codex has a sequel! Well, it has a second book in the series, which will definitely have a third and possibly a fourth. I'll have to see how the third one plays out...
BUT...
I thought it was time to get you all up to speed on the title of book 2! It's pretty evocative (in my humble opinion) so I just love it. Ready?

Author Interview #2 — Alyssa Markins (and Book Launch Pics!)
Guess what? I had the pleasure and honor of being interviewed a second time! (Check out my first author interview here!) This time, the fabulous Alyssa Markins conducted the interview and put it on her website — under the heading "Creativity and Coffee." Isn't that awesome?I had so much fun answering all these questions and letting others know about my book!
