If you've been around for a little while, you already know that I like to write my blurbs during my plotting process. I'm still on break for another couple of days, but as a New Year's day treat, I wanted to give you the blurb for Grind (Gymbos, 3)!

Happy New Year! I’m not going to say anything stupid like “2026 is going to be the best year yet”, but I am tiptoeing cautiously into the new year and sitting down quietly, hoping it won’t notice me lol. I’m on my holiday break for another few days, getting back to work on Monday the 5th, but I didn’t want to miss my first of the month updates anyway! So, here’s what I’ve got planned to start out the new year!

Good morning, Friends! I'm about to start my holiday break! I worked hard to get through my first round of edits and get Relentlessly Vengeful Ghost off to my editor last week and all that's left to do is to clean and organize my office this morning so I'll be able to come back to a cozy space after my break!
