It’s been a while, y’all. I’m still here and I’m still writing, but I was waylaid by an unusually long and difficult project under my other pen name (Piper Scott) that has totally thrown off my schedule. Wild One (Masters of Romance Book 3) is still on the agenda, but I have no idea when I might be able to resume work on it. Hopefully in early 2024 if all goes well, but after the unexpected amount of time it took to complete my Piper project, I am hesitant to promise any hard dates. We’ll have to wait and see.
If you would like to support me in the interim, I launched a Patreon this month and have been posting content to it daily. Never heard of Patreon before? It’s a platform where people (Patrons) can monetarily support their favorite creatives. As a thank-you for the support, the creative will often offer perks and rewards to their Patrons, which in my case means access to chapters as I write them, and depending on your chosen tier could include…
access to a library of exclusive bonus content
the ability to vote on which bonus stories I write next
guaranteed advanced reader copies (ARCs)
signed paperbacks
audio codes
exclusive character artwork
inclusion of your name (or a name of your choosing) at the front of each new book
entry into my VIP Discord community, where you can chat directly with me
yearly curated book boxes featuring special edition books with handwritten annotations throughout, giving you a behind the scenes look at my creative process and unique insight into the story, its characters, and how it ties into stories still to come… (extremely limited quantities available; 11 remain at the time of posting)Â
and more…
If you’d like to support me above and beyond reading, reviewing, and recommending my books, please consider joining us! We’ve been having a lot of fun so far, and with a busy release schedule planned for Piper this November and December, it’s only going to get more fun from here.
Curious about which Emma titles will be available?
When I resume work on Wild One (Masters of Romance Book 3), chapters will be appearing for all tiers to read as they become available. I also have the following Emma titles slated for publication in the bonus content library:
The Asshole Next Door (a standalone novella)
Red Hot (A Tough Stuff Auto Body Prequel)
The Dream Machine (a Small Town Hearts story, originally published in the Heart2Heart 3 charity anthology)
Untitled WIP (a standalone, super high heat, taboo-ish short story with the following premise: Notoriously unforgiving professor gives low marks to a student that only joined the class to stalk said professor, for better or worse)
Plus plenty of Piper content I won’t mention here.
As excited as I am by all of this, I know Patreon is not everyone’s cup of tea, which is why I want to take the time to reassure you that nothing about how I am publishing my books is changing. You will still be able to read Wild One (and all my other full-length books) on Amazon as usual, and I have a strict spoiler policy I am serious about enforcing to make sure I protect the enjoyment of non-Patron readers. For more information, you can check out my publicly accessible Patreon FAQ here.
You can also rest assured you will never need to join my Patreon in order to fully enjoy my published books. I will not hide epilogues or vital worldbuilding behind paywalls. All Patreon exclusive bonus content will be exactly that—bonus content—and it is my intention to continue to produce free newsletter-exclusive bonus content as a thank-you to newsletter subscribers as well.
