Chotiner: You've made the claim that no one has ever fed you in your life.
My Cat: Maow.
Chotiner: Yet there's food in your dish right now.
My Cat: Maow.
Chotiner: Let's change the subject to the ripped-open bag of sandwich bread on the floor.
My Cat: Maow.
Chotiner: I have read different things.

Sweden in general is a really tough place for me in the winter, unfortunately. But this year I made sure I had no deadlines during the darker months, and that really helped.
I hope you're basking in the sunshine we've been having, Mikaela! ♥

Me in December: I'm lazy and my brain doesn't work anymore and IDK if I'll ever be able to write again
Me in February: Huh, I can do stuff now
Me in March: [writing feverishly] I guess it was just my seasonal depression before. I'll remember that!

I'm just more middle-aged, Robin, so it had to be 40 instead of 30. 😂

I'm sorry, Kieran. ♥♥♥ If it's any consolation, I cried at various points while writing the story too?
I hope they were good tears in the end, and thank you for reading my book!

It's true! WORLD'S OKAYEST ORACLE (RELUCTANTLY) SEEKS DEMON is on NetGalley--and I'd provide a link, but I can't, because I've blocked the site for myself! 😅
(Otherwise, I'd torture myself by reading the reviews, and then I wouldn't be able to write.**)

I don't have any further books in the series under contract right now? But I'm not against setting another story there--I'd love to explore Lise's happy ending in particular. :-)
Thank you for loving Harlot's Bay as much as I do, Matdredalia!

My publisher hasn't indicated that it will be on KU? They did put my Spoiler Alert series on KU, but only after it was complete, so...I'm not sure what they'll decide to do about the Harlot's Bay series, or when they'll decide. I'm sorry!
