Both are on the desk for Layout and publishing. They are both written. I will do a post with the link when I get it.
That being said…
Which one of the options here do you think I should go with next?

Podcasts and the thoughts they provoke
So, I was on Owl Light’s Unprinted Pages…They will be uploading the video to the channel soon…We did it live and then the replay gets uploaded…that is the way this works. It got my brain jumping. I have been writing since. I will be posting links when the review period is done…Lunatic Asylum Screams – my second memoir is now due out Aug 4. (I still need to get that up on paperback and other various sites….just started that process.) and Serena’s Blood Red Rain is now less than 15 poems away from being done writing…and I don’t think I am done writing tonight. So…Check out Owl Light’s channel…seriously they are inspiring…
oh also…I will be posting a link later when it’s live…I did a nifty little journal with my art on the cover. maybe I might do more…
Progress on Poetry
I chose to copy some of this from the previous post…and add to it.
Xactly Poetic is currently up to 47/70 poems
Queer Verbiage is up to 26/70 poems
On my way home is up to 54/70
Fighting Ignorance is up to 23/70
Dream Drips is at 6/70
Serena’s Blood Red Rain is at 48/70
Occult Madness is at 3/70
Ocular Dystopia is at 2/70
As you can see… I am making progress… but I’m not sure if I am going to be done with any of them soon… that being said… I am setting a September release date tentatively for Xactly Poetic. I think that I can do that deadline. I say tentatively as I don’t have it finished and I don’t want to promise something that I can’t do.
It feels so strange to me to have so many volumes in progress. But many of them have a theme… which means that I am limited to what goes into them.
Xactly Poetic is all about the form. I am a free verse poet – so writing to the form is a challenge for me and my writing skills.
Queer Verbage is all about being a non-binary pansexual and the rainbow magic in my life.
On my way home is not themed, really…but like many of my volumes it is picking up a slight theme of the journey and what home is to me. Though I am not doing it on purpose.
Fighting ignorance is political poetry… and my opinions there are strong.
Dream Drips is about addiction.
Occult Madness is about pagan ideas, and religious thought.
Ocular Dystopia is all Visual Poetry.
And of course Serena is dark poetry.

Monday Poetry
It has been a while since I posted Serena’s poetry… so here’s 2 from her current Wip.
Monday Poetry
Writing is so weird.
Every writer will tell you that writing is not the easiest thing to do. The characters will refuse to be written if you have any thing off, such as the title or maybe the idea of who are writing. Serena has been struggling with the second book in her zombie series. She was trying to keep the name similar to the first one. The first book – Rust, Gore, and the Junkyard Zombie – was named appropriately. It worked for the book. She was also struggling with the cover. Nothing I was designing fit what she was wanting.
Through experiments and discussion I believe that we have found the right title and series title. (I will have to adjust RGatJZ later to add the subtitle).
Book 2 will be The Art of Zombie.
The series Title is going to be the World Gone Wrong.
She is back to work…writing more undeath. I have a cover design that she is happy with. (reveal will be closer to the release date)
Saturday Funday Party
Hello, My Lovelies! This is my Saturday Tea Today I am drinking a peach cold tea.
Tomorrow (Well tomorrow when this releases…lol) is my 47th birthday. Due to a lot of stress, I really have been hit or miss posting. I spent nearly two weeks fighting a stress migraine that I would never want to face again. I am going to try to get back onto a semi-normal schedule, but I have a lot going on. Most of it is for Fae Corps.
We are doing a poetry contest this year… And we are as busy as one-armed paperhangers otherwise.
If you missed it Ashira Datya released her second book in the Magik Saga – Evil resists on the 10th.
Raz T. Slasher is releasing Book two in his Riverside Chronicles – Silence is Crimson Homecoming on April 20th. I don’t have the link for that yet…
Gathering Teardrops is done being written – But my schedule is crazy…so I will be releasing it May 6th.
My Next Volume will be split between Handprints on my soul and Fighting Ignorance. This is because with the state of the world I am writing more political poetry than I ever expected myself to…But I am not writing only politics. Handprints will be everything else. Fighting Ignorance may take longer than a usual volume…
In April I will be releasing the next Pip the Pup story. I chose the release date because it is my mommy’s birthday. I felt like it was appropriate.
Fae Corps Has two anthologies releasing June 1st. One was my project from the beginning. Grandmother’s Wisdom. It is a gorgeous book. I love how it came together. I am going to be meeting with representatives from No Kid Hungry next week to find out how to give away half of the proceeds from that anthology. (I reached out because I want to do it the right way, and they are going to help me to do the work to make it shine.)
The other anthology, Seeking Stories, is in the edit stage. So I am working on that. It is filled with fun adventures.
That leaves me very busy when you add in life, writing, and other responsibilities. I have done half decently considering. 47…Yeah I never expected to make it to 30, so each year just brings more surprises.
I am going to post my random if ya wanna’s not because I am asking for anything…but in case anyone is interested..

I find that the thing I would love most for my birthday if I am honest is someone to review my books, or tell me what they liked or disliked about what I have wrote. It means so much to know what I am doing matters.
Saturday Funday Party
Hello, My Lovelies! This is my first Saturday Tea Party. I am sitting here drinking Mocha coffee and thinking that is a funny thing for a tea party…maybe I will make some green tea next just to feel less strange about it.
I will be getting an interview on Friday with the Library in the Blue Box in April. It will be a video interview.
I will be releasing the Next Pip book (Pip and Friends) in April on the 29th.
Serena’s Poetry volume – Death Becomes Her – will release on June 1st.
My next poetry volume (Gathering Teardrops) is probably going to release in May but until I am certain it will be done I have been reluctant to set the release date.
Fae Corps has been putting the release dates and submission deadlines on google calendar. This is public and allows the readers to know when things are scheduled.
I am working on getting art I have done inked and layout done for a coloring book from my art. It will be titled Color My Art.
This is the upcoming announcements for the next year…subject to updates of course 😉
I am still trying to get back into the habit of updating the blog. I may still miss here and there. I will do my best not to though.
