Hey folks.It's been a while since I sent out one of these, my life has been pretty busy these last couple of months, with changing jobs, taking a bus driving test, my father visiting (and staying), getting covid (again), my mother dying - and under all of that, I canceled the contract for the Sadeiest with Darkstroke books.Darkstroke was a good fit for me in the early days of The Sadeiest, I learned a lot about publishing, formatting, cover design, and promotion, but I also learned that they weren't the best model for me and for where the series was going - I'm pure Horror. I wanted a press behind me that was known for that. Darkstroke are trending towards more crime thriller, and YA and the amount of Horror they produce has dwindled. We have parted ways amicably.Presently, the Sadeiest is out of print, I've decided to self-publish because the next book, the Masocheist, is a monster. It's vast and requires the reader to have read the first book. Going self-published seems logical, as I've gained more publicity and a market niche through my interaction with other authors by reviewing their books. After two years of doing that, It's my turn!With all that said, I'm massively proud to be able to give you folks the Wrap-around cover reveal of the new edition of the Sadeiest!
