Hey everyone! I've had a lot of good writing done this week, we are making a lot of progress with The Funeral Director's Vampire, which is super exciting.

I think you all are going to really enjoy The Funeral Director's Vampire. It's cute and funny, and the graphic novel version has the most gorgeous art ever. Hope everyone has a great week!

Hi everyone! I am so happy with the progress I have been making with this book. I am on chapter five right now in both the novel version and the graphic novel verson, and its so good. I am genuienly so excited with how this is coming along. Some people have told me that they wished I was working on The Rising Heiress book three, but I think I needed this break. Now when I get back to writing it I can see it with fresh new eyes. I posted teaser art on my pages, so go look at them!!

Hi everyone! I am finally back from vacation! Since I've been on vacation, I have gotten no writing done, but that's okay. PSA to all authors out there, taking a break from writing does not make you a bad writer :).  I could have worked on it yesterday if I am being honest, but I instead spent 5 hours learning Bella's Lullaby from Twilight LOL. On a side note, I have been really excited about my webtoon that I'm doing with a friend. She is such a talented artist, so this is going to be so great!!! I am also thinking about doing a fan art contest, let me know what you think about that idea in the comments! Love all of you!! Allie <3

Hi everyone! I have some fun projects to announce! I have officially gotten the ball rolling for an Audiobook version of my books! I am very excited about this. I have always dreamed of having my books in audiobook version. Another exciting update, I have been working with a very talented artist towards making a webtoon! Right now its title is "The Funeral Director's Vampire" but that is subject to possible change. I'm super excited about it though! Finally, a small reminder about my book signing that is happening on Saturday!!! I hope you come!!! Thank you all of tuning in! Allie

Hi everyone!! I have been making a lot of progress on the webtoon I've been working on with my friend, which is super exciting. This week, I had my first book signing, and I am so happy to announce that that when very well!! It was a ton of fun seeing everyone, and the people at We Be Book'N were so nice. Thank you to everyone who came!! Allie

Exciting stuff in the works May 29, 2024 Hi everyone!!! I've been working on book 3 some this week, so that has been pretty exciting. I have also been looking at people to possibly do an audiobook version of my books, so make sure to stay tuned about that as well! I'm super hyped about how well An Exile's Tale has been selling, y'all are so so so amazing!!! I hope to see y'all at my signing on June 8th at We Be Book'N. It's gonna be awesome! Thanks!!! Allie

IT'S WEDNESDAY MY DUDES!!! May 22, 2024 Hey y'all!!! Welcome back to another Wednesday LOL. Gonna be perfectly honest, I did no writing on Book 3 (Which I still haven't been able to decide a title for) this week. But I did find like two small grammar mistakes in An Exile's Tale with the help of my grandma, and fixed those, so that is fun. I am enjoying my summer, and I should have plenty of free time to write and hang out with friends now that school and other such things have fallen off the plate. I am hoping to maybe release some free short stories about the characters in An Exile's Tale and in The Elven Princess, so let me know who you'd want to read more about!!! Much love, Allie

Hi everyone! I'm super excited to remind you about the signing event I am holding on June 8th from 11-1 at We Be Book'N in Monroe Wa! I recently went to a Sadie Jean Concert, and I saw how happy she was every time a fan told her they loved her songs, or gave her a gift, or did something that demonstrated they knew her music. That's such a crazy thing, because she told us how she dreamed at 16 that one day this would happen to her, and now she is on her first headlining tour at only 21. I hope that one day, even if this book signing gets two people attending (my mom and dad), that I'll have a successful event like she did. After her show she had everyone in the venue lining up to take photos and get her signature. Maybe one day I'll get to experience that too. I'm in the writing business for the love of writing of course. I love my stories, and I wrote them down so other people can experience them as well. But there's something special about seeing that other people enjoy them as much as you hoped they would. So whether I get 100 of you attending my signing or only my parents, I have a dream to look forward too. Whether one day I get a fandom with their own little cute name like the Swifties or Potterheads, or I stay a small author forever, I am forever grateful for everyone who has participated in my writing. Sales of An Exile's Tale have been booming, and I am so overjoyed by it. A really hard thing happened in my life a few days ago, but seeing all the good things God has blessed me with in this season has helped to take an edge off the grief. I love you all!!! Allie
