Editor Victoria Jane and I meet up to talk about Canadianisms, how Nine-Tenths survived the query trenches, and the whys and hows of why I decided to self-publish the book.
Happy New Year, everyone!
Welcome to 2026. I feel like it’s been an age since I’ve sent out an email. Probably because the initial frantic marketing push around Nine-Tenths has died down, and I have been chained to my computer finishing the revisions for my next novel with W by Wattpad Books.
The manuscript is now done, and I handed it in to my editing team a couple of weeks ago. Now we wait…
In the meantime, I’m already four chapters into my next project, and looking forward to getting carried away in it. I have been approaching it slowly but steadily to avoid post-manuscript exhaustion and burn out, but making sure that I keep up a daily habit of creation so that when I’m ready to really crank this one out, my brain and my creativity are raring to go.
Until then, I’ve decided to spend January in bear-mode: sleeping lots, reading every spare moment, resting a bunch, and getting fat on cheese and wine. 🧸
