Who’s ready for Orion’s bite?

SoV—EXPECTED PUBLICATION - August 3 2026—is the final book of the “Shadows of the Night” duet, and *might* ensure my one-way ticket to a straitjacket if my blöödy vamps have anything to say about it🦇🩸

SotN 2 is almost complete; the 4th and final act is underway😌

We’ve got spice, angst, anger, lust and love. Plus a dozen bloodied scenes where the vamps are just being vamps. I can’t wait to bring the final half of the SotN duet to you all!

Did someone say “writing updates”?

SotN 2🦇: If this is the first you’re learning about book two in the SotN Duet then, surprise!! If not, you’ll be happy to hear that beta reading is finished AND I’ve already started on the minor edits (major ones I work on last, saves me a bucket load of stress). The goal is to have it with my editor by April at the latest, if it’s earlier—AMAZING!

Project Envy🌿: The first act of “Envy” is complete and the second act’s vibes/ intent has been planned (chapter outlines will be drafted when SotN 2 is closer to heading to my editor). What can you expect? Think Divergent + Hunger Games meets Greek Mythology and powerful prophecies.

Project Lust🎸: I’m PUMPED for this one. It’s in the planning stages (vampiric guidelines are done and world-building is in progress) but it’s going to be one, HELL of a ride. If you thought SotN was dark…*this* will take the cake if all goes to plan. Think Mötley Crüe’s reputation combined with Def Leppard’s music AND pitch black vamps. The scene notes I have on my phone are…straight-jacket worthy🤭

some updates on the writing front (since I post on every other social media) :

-Bikes & Blood didn’t win any awards for the Watty’s apart from the recognition as being shortlisted. Which is better than what I saw coming for it anyways, considering I entered as a joke and that it’s a fan fiction😮‍💨

-Shadows of the Night aka SotN on the other hand (my work in progress) is three chapters away from being a completed second draft. (Meaning it’s gone through it’s second round of edits.) It’s still a GIANT project of over 169k words…

-SotN is also with beta-readers at the moment, who are reading the second draft version from a readers POV to point out things I’ll need to alter BEFORE an editor (which I’m hoping to have SotN with by either January or February)

-Book two of SotN duet has been drafted, each act structured and planned out. Notes have been taken for scene ideas. And let’s just say that shit WILL be hitting the fan…my personal favourite part of being a writer😉

So, that’s what’s been going on in the world of Celacali. Some would say it’s a waste of time, a lot of effort to put into something I can’t guarantee anyone will read. But, if Nyx has taught me anything since I’ve been writing SotN; it’s that you can’t give up on something just because people tell you it’s scary.

A risk. A pointless endeavour.

And, in the words of Orion Tyrie: “A piece of you dies when you enter Celacali, Nyx. It’s just whether they can save you before you flatline that counts.”

So, chase the impossible, if not for someone else, but for yourself. And…give ‘em hell <33
