So, as you may recall, 2019 got off to a real, real fucking rocky start for me. I&#8217;m still not 100% recovered from my breakdown, so rather than push myself into another one, I decided to step back and accept that yup, I&#8217;ll probably have to put off\u00a0<em>Where We Land<\/em>, which had been slated for March. And now I&#8217;m accepting the fact that yup, I have to tell everyone that&#8217;s what&#8217;s happening. Which sucks. But yes, for now,\u00a0<em>Where We Land<\/em> is being pushed back. To when? I don&#8217;t know. Probably May. Maybe earlier. It&#8217;s all going to depend on my healing, how well I can function, and how much I can expend my energy. I very much downplayed the severity of what was going on, but as I&#8217;m still not\u00a0<em>quite<\/em> myself, I don&#8217;t want to rush a book, have everyone hate it because it&#8217;s rushed, and then fall back into the pit of, &#8220;You were never supposed to do this, you&#8217;re a mistake, you don&#8217;t belong in the world,&#8221; which is the really dark place my imposter syndrome takes me.<\/p>\n<p>HOWEVER.<\/p>\n<p>This doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m not writing.\u00a0<em>Nightmare Born<\/em> is still updating every Tuesday on the Radish app. A new chapter becomes free every Tuesday, too, so if you&#8217;re patient enough, it can be a\u00a0<em>free<\/em> read!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also very pleased to announce that I&#8217;ve started writing for SyFy Fangrrls. They asked me to watch a movie called\u00a0<em>I Bought A Vampire Motorcycle<\/em> and write about it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vampire-motorcycle.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-12463\" src=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vampire-motorcycle-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"A promotional image for I Bought A Vampire Motorcycle, featuring comic-style drawings of the cast and the demonic motorbike with the words &quot;most motorcycles run on petrol...the one runs on blood!&quot;\" width=\"591\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vampire-motorcycle-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vampire-motorcycle-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vampire-motorcycle-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 591px) 100vw, 591px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, it&#8217;s a real movie. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.syfy.com\/syfywire\/67-thoughts-we-had-while-watching-i-bought-a-vampire-motorcycle\">You can read &#8220;67 thoughts we had while watching I Bought A Vampire Motorcycle&#8221; here.\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Look for more from me at SyFy Fangrrls\u00a0coming soon, including articles about\u00a0<em>The Good Place<\/em> and how fucking mad I am at the way we treat teenage girls in the fantasy genre.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s talk about books. I&#8217;ve already mentioned that\u00a0<em>Where We Land<\/em> is probably going to come out in May. But there will still be books in March and April. I&#8217;m working on re-releasing some of my Abigail Barnette titles that I&#8217;ve received the rights back on.\u00a0<em>Awakening Delilah<\/em> will be available again in March, as part of the\u00a0<em>Northern Circle<\/em> series that will feature books by me, Bronwyn Green, Jessica Jarman, and Kris Norris. All the books in the\u00a0<em>Northern Circle<\/em> series will be paranormal romances set in Michigan&#8217;s Upper Peninsula, making the deer, fox, and bat shifters in\u00a0<em>Awakening Delilah<\/em> a perfect fit.<\/p>\n<p>April brings us baseball (well, technically, March brings us baseball this year), so my\u00a0<em>Hardball<\/em> series, previously released as three novellas <em>(Long Relief, Double Header,<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Triple Play)<\/em><em>,<\/em> will be re-released as an anthology.<\/p>\n<p>Now, if you already own those books, you don&#8217;t have to re-buy any of them. Any changes will be extremely insignificant, as I&#8217;m pretty happy with them.<\/p>\n<p>Then, coming up in the fall, yes, there will be another book about Sophie Scaife and the men she loves.\u00a0<em>The Stepmother<\/em> is going to pick up very close to where\u00a0<em>The Boyfriend<\/em> ended. And it&#8217;s going to be a\u00a0<em>ride.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So, that&#8217;s the news I have for 2019, writing-wise. So far. I mean, anything can happen, right? Maybe tomorrow I&#8217;ll get offered a three book contract to write about marmalade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey there everybody!
