Hello and Happy New Year!
(Is it still okay to wish a HNY or has that window passed? What’s the etiquette threshold for HNY tidings? Jan 7th? Jan 30th? May 13th of the same year?)
Anyway, HI! It's so great to have you here, particularly since I'll be providing a crucial Silver Blood update at the end of this email, as well as some super fun news about an Inked group read-along! (Oh, and the whole Butt 🧈Butter thing too 😳)
But FIRST comes the important business of REVENGE.
As ALL of you should know by now, I'm smack-dab in the middle of a massive public feud with author Annette Marie. You can see the progression of our fight here:
Exhibit A: https://tinyurl.com/RevengeExhibitA
Exhibit B: https://tinyurl.com/RevengeExhibitB
Exhibit C: https://tinyurl.com/RevengeExhibitC
Over 175k people have watched Exhibit "C" on Facebook, and those heathens actually think her TINY ANT BOOKSHELF is funny!!!! 😤😡🐜
THERE IS NOTHING FUNNY ABOUT A LACK OF BOOKSHELVES AND A DWINDLING BANK ACCOUNT DUE TO YOUR PERPETUALLY GOOD BOOKS, ANNETTE.
Sheesh, write something mediocre for once, would you?
ANYWAY. This brings me to the next chapter in this salacious saga of revenge:
"EXHIBIT D"
😈🔥☠️
Now, I have embedded the video here for your convenience, for I am a compassionate and thoughtful machinist of chaos, but I do respectfully and evilly ask that you also watch it on Facebook / TikTok so you may like and comment and share my ULTIMATE REVENGE with the masses.
NOW FLY, [my brilliant, amazing, unparalleledly awesome] MONKEYS, FLY!!!
Ahem.
Now that the important business of vengeance has been thoroughly covered, I do have some actual important news! 😅😂
Silver Blood is 97% done, with the first half already off to the editor!! This book is CHONKY, coming in at an anticipated 10k words longer than Synced, the prior record-holder for having highest number of words in the Gilded Blood series. I know it can sometimes be tough to switch POVs when reading a series, but believe me when I say, Gilded Blood fans are going to LOVE Zayn's story. It's not just a rehashing of Inked. It's what happens in the two years before Inked, focusing on Zayn's secrets, struggles, and his all-consuming desire for the one woman he's vowed never to touch - his new tattoo apprentice, Talia.
And when I tell you it smolders, I. Mean. It. 🔥Smolders.🔥 Zayn falls HARD for Talia, and you'll get to witness that first-hand. You'll also be seeing a lot of familiar faces, like Biscuit er, Hibiscus, Sol, Dee Dee (more hearing rather than seeing to be fair 😅), Calus, Salen, Saxen, Soren, and.... Simon?!?!?
Did any of you know Sol had a fourth insufferable shithead er, child?
Most excitingly, even though Silver Blood was previously set to release in March, it's currently on-track for an early release - NEXT MONTH!!!
For those of you already asking about a special edition and whether it will match the Gilded Blood SE omnibus, a little bird told me you might find a VERY special announcement about that in the back of Silver Blood, so if you haven't yet preordered your copy, what are you waiting for?? <3
Pssssst.
SILVER BLOOD ARC APPLICATIONS WILL BE GOING OUT LATER THIS MONTH, SO BE SURE TO KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR INBOX!
In order to prepare for the new release, we're hosting a group read/re-read of Inked over in my reader group, Rachel's Renergades! So if you've been meaning to read Inked or want to experience the story all over again with bookish buddies, now's a great time! (Especially because the end of Silver Blood DIRECTLY overlaps with the events of Inked, and I suspect you'll enjoy seeing those events from Zayn's POV!)
Come join us here!
Okay, last but not least.... Butt Butter. 🧈
My lawyers have advised me not to get into the lurid details, lest I be reported to the Federal Bureau of "That Is NOT Appropriate To Put In A Newsletter", but suffice it to say that my team and I spent an inappropriate chunk of our Monday Meeting discussing this totally unhinged and NSFW Reddit post that I inadvertently stumbled upon the night before and then couldn't get out of my head.
What I'm desperate to know, and furious that there isn't an update about, is: WHAT EXACTLY WAS HE DOING IN THE BATHROOM WITH THAT BUTTER?! AND DID IT INVOLVE ONE STEP OR MULTIPLE STEPS? I guarantee it had to do with his butt, but is that it, or was there more to the ritual?!
If anyone knows the answer - not a guess (believe me, I've already imagined all possibilities 😰) but the actual answer from the OP - please tell me. As much as I really don't want to know, I also desperately need closure 😭🍑🧈
Okay, back to doing actual writing stuff. Have a buttery Thursday, my friends! 😂
Cheers!❤️
