(Or…Welcome to the Karennaverse.) I was thinking about all the characters I’ve created for my werewolf books, and how many of them could spin off into their own stories. As of the last time I actually counted, I have somewhere around 400 *named* characters across all of my werewolf books. That includes a few who READ MORE

Where It All Started
16+ years ago, I was a member of a Yahoo group. Most of the other members were romance authors, along with a blogger and an editor or two. One day, one of the other members, in reference to a book she’d heard about, asked how a werewolf could be vegan. (The book, if I remember READ MORE
Welcome to the Karennaverse…
Sometimes I look at the universe I’ve created for my books and think, “Holy heck… *I* did that?” I started creating my paranormal romance universe, which I’m now calling the Karennaverse because it amuses me to do so, back in 2010, when an author friend’s question of “How could a werewolf be vegan” led to READ MORE
Real Werewolves Is Complete!
On Thursday, July 9, I released Figs till the End, book 10 of my Real Werewolves Don’t Eat Meat series. This is intended to be the final book of the series… though that’s what I thought back in 2014, when book 5, Tempeh for Two, was originally published. Obviously, as I started revising and updating READ MORE
Many Things Happening
And as often occurs, that’s led to me not keeping up with blogging, though I didn’t realize it had been an entire month since the last time I posted! So, what’s been going on with me… I finished the first draft of Virtually Guarded, book 1 of my new Virtual Haven Pack series. This book READ MORE
Overwhelmed
Sometimes life is just a lot. I live with depression and Complex PTSD, which can make even a little feel like a lot sometimes, but then there are stretches like the one I’m currently in, when I have a bunch of different things I need to do and can’t seem to organize my time and READ MORE
This is why I write…
I was just checking the Amazon reviews of Much Ado about Muesli (Real Werewolves Don’t Eat Meat 9), and reader N M Harvey said this: “I love it when authors write about what people who have PTSD go through. I live with extreme PTSD, so to be able to read about others who live through READ MORE
Much Ado about Muesli is live!
I haven’t blogged for a few weeks. Between the losses in my family and the holidays, it just…Well, I just didn’t blog. But I’m here today to say that Much Ado about Muesli (Real Werewolves Don’t Eat Meat 9) is now available! I released the book on Thursday, Jan. 8, and it’s already gotten a READ MORE
I Love My Universe
On Monday, I started a new book. Specifically, book 10 of my Real Werewolves Don’t Eat Meat series. This one’s a little bittersweet for me. Originally, back in 2011-2014, RWDEM grew to a 5-book series. Book 5 was intended to be the final book, had a distant-future epilogue, and so on. And that book, published READ MORE
I Want to Write a Christmas Story…
I want to write a Christmas story.Naturally, because I *want* to write, my brain is like, “Nah, that’s no fun, here, have a blue screen of doom instead.” Because that’s usually what happens when I try to write a story that isn’t a direct part of one of my series. (And sometimes even when I READ MORE
