My shop is now open!

I update the 'Home' page with information regularly (rather than posting on social media). Be sure to check in if you're interested in what's going on with me/the books!

I am writing. <3

Sometimes, it doesn't have to be some massive plot, with seven thousand internal pages (inside my person) (*SLIGHT exaggeration) of lore on a new world. Sometimes, it can just be a love story. A reviewer said something similar on Where Water Meets the Sky before. That's how I'm feeling right now. I just want to write a nice freaking love story. Every time I think about writing on something else, with a big plot and big stakes, I feel this overwhelming sense of dread and misery. I just don't want to deal with bad guys and bad situations and horrible things happening. I just want to spend time in a nice place, with good people working through some stuff. Just a nice love story. (Yes, I know there technically should've been more commas up there. I also know that I'm overusing the word 'just' at the moment. Sometimes, you just want to write a nice love story, and sometimes you just want to write a sentence how it's spoken instead of what would make it technically correct. Sometimes, being honest, you just don't want to write or worry about words at all.)

Being transparent, that's where I'm at. (Still working on joy.)

A new cover for Virin is also in the works. I'm waiting to get the first design for the new direction. Really excited about that! I feel this is a good joy-builder. 

I'm going to say it again here, since I just moved it to the Updates page (linked below), where I'd said it before... 

MY SHOP IS OPEN.

Please know that any purchases you make of my books (or donations made in my shop) go straight back to book things.

Things on the agenda/that I'm working toward: 

• Hardcovers
• New covers for Carved Legacy
• Contemplating and having internal arguments about potentially releasing the rest of The Ten Kingdoms and Fifteen Right, which would mean covers for them

So, that is most likely what any purchases you make will be funding. Along with a big stack of ISBNs, which is expensive as all get-out and is needed. It's on the list! (That's kind of like one of those things on home renovation shows, where you need to get the HVAC done or rewire all the electrical. It's costly, and it's not a 'fun' expense, where you get the gratification of seeing a beautiful thing after.)

Anyway.

That's basically all (or essentially/mostly all) here!

Apart from just wanting to let you know that you can get discounts in my shop when you sign up for my newsletter! https://www.cmillerauthor.com/newsletter

Hoping that April is going well for everyone. I'll be enjoying the weather as much as possible. Hoping that you're all doing the same/are able to. (I'm also trying not to get swept away with basketball transfer portal news! ha!)
