What I’m Watching

I’m watching Lockwood & Co. Absolutely loving it so far! I read the books a few years ago and devoured them from start to finish, so I was thrilled about the TV series but I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Netflix often is a hit or miss, but for me, so far, this is a definite hit!

What I’m Crafting

Before my baby, Seraphyn (who is now four months old….time flies!) was born, I had bought a kit to craft a nightlight featuring the Disney Princess Cinderella with string art as decoration. The kit is supposedly for kids but either I’m a complete idiot, but this was a lot tougher than it seemed to be. The instructions were also really unclear. Quite frankly, I don’t recommend it for kids at all. Even for adults, it’s a struggle.

Luckily, I didn’t pay that much for it – like 1 EUR or something. But online, you can purchase it as well and it’s a lot more expensive, about 15 EUR. I definitely don’t recommend doing that. The material is cheap, you don’t even get a nice frame for around it, and it just isn’t worth that price. I’m not even sure I’ll display it in Seraphyn’s room (like I initially intended when buying it) although for the amoutn of work I’ve had trying to piece it together, I might as well…

You can read a more detailed post about this kit on my author blog.

What I’m Writing

This week I didn’t write anything because I’ve been too focused on my new release. Yaaaaaay!

The updated, much longer (600 plus pages in paperback…yikes) version of See All Evil is now available on Amazon!

Title: See All Evil (Academy for the Wicked #1)

Genre: New Adult, Reverse Harem, Paranormal Romance

Purchase: Amazon

On my eighteenth birthday, my demon-possessed mother told me I was invited to join the Academy for the Wicked.

Hours later, the diner I worked at was overrun by creatures that shouldn’t exist. Alec, a warlock, who appeared out of thin air and made a glass levitate – which is probably the least of his powers. A demon named Christian, the culprit behind my mother’s zombie-like episode this morning. Damian, a vampire who promptly killed my manager; Tristan, a fearsome necromancer; and the most mysterious one of them all, a mesmer called Ronan.

All of them swore they would protect me from the nightmare that has haunted me for years: the red room, the throne of blood, the Queen of Maggots, especially now the Queen of Maggots is no longer confined to the world of dreams…

With five gorgeous guys eager to protect me, I should feel safe, but the Academy is a deadly trap. The teachers and students are all keeping secrets, and I’m not sure if I belong here.

To survive my first semester at the Academy of the Wicked, I will need to figure out who and what I truly am, and why the Queen of Maggots wants me dead…

 

What I’m Playing

No board games this week, but I’m playing the Sims 4 again, thanks to this nifty new expansion (well, new… it’s been out for a few months, but thanks to the birth of my sweet baby girl, Seraphyn, I didn’t really have time to play videogames anymore).

This expansion is perfect for the Sims 4 story I started writing last year (and then put on a hiatus after episode 18… but I’m working on reviving it): Josie, The Vampire Slayer. Since a lot of scenes from this story take place in high school, during school hours, I had to use Mods and what-not to take suitable pictures, but with this new expansion, I don’t need to do all that anymore, which makes it soooo much easier.

What have you been up to this week?

What I’m Watching

My boyfriend and I had a movie night and we watched Palm Springs. It’s a little reminiscent of Groundhog Day, in that it’s about a day that is endlessly on repeat. Hilarity ensues. The movie wasn’t bad; it was quite entertaining, but nothing shocking or too surprising. Just a fun little comedy.

What I’m Crafting

Last week, I finished crafting a small gnome with an oversized hat.

You can read a more detailed post about how I crafted this gnome on my author blog.

What I’m Writing

Title: Hear All Evil (Academy for the Wicked #2)
Genre: New Adult, Reverse Harem, Paranormal Romance
Status: Drafting

I’ve finally discovered what I really am. A Nightmare.

The revelation hasn’t exactly made my life easier, though. The Nightmare King is determined to hunt me down. The Grim Reaper, death itself, has put a target on my back. Can I trust the Queen of Maggots–the monster that has tormented my dreams for years?

All I know is that without the guys’ protection, I would already be dead. Five guys who swore to keep me safe, no matter what.

There’s Damian, an ancient vampire with a penchant for reading and brooding.

Christian, a demon prince who prefers to soothe my pain rather than cause me pain.

Alec, the most powerful warlock at the Academy for the Wicked, who likes to inflict pain – but the kind of pain that is rather enjoyable.

Ronan, the mesmer who can influence people’s thoughts and who seems to hold more secrets than I can count.

And then there’s Tristan. The necromancer who betrayed me.

Despite their oath, I’m not sure if I can trust them. After all, the Academy for the Wicked is filled with monsters…

… And now I’m truly one of them.

Wordcount first draft

10,000 / 125,000 words. 8% done!

 

What I’m Playing

This week, we played Escape Room The Game – Prison Island & Mad House. In this game, you have to escape from a certain situation within 60 minutes’ time!

You can read my review of this game on my author blog.
