Welcome to my Blog! Here you'll find posts about my life, inspiration I find on the way, and of course, writing updates, excerpts, and cover reveals! I'll even be reviewing books I read & Movies I watch. Grab your tea (or coffee) and stay awhile!

Creativity At Long Last; Burning Willow Press

I have a lot to talk about in this post as it's been a long time since I've shared, I know.
For one, I'm fully moved into my new apartment, and more days at work aside, with classes wrapping up for the third week of December, I have decidedly more time to focus on my goals:

  • Getting The Two Swords to the editor by the end of December,
  • Receiving, and reviewing some fantasy submissions to my dear friend's new publishing company, Burning Willow Press, to which I am the fantasy acquisitions editor. (Call it a fun hobby if you will.) Please send some my way!
  • And lastly, writing to this blog more, sharing more of my writing exploits, and where possible the personal.

I know January is fast upon us, and thus will begin my year-long single-minded train on the advertisement of my first book, due out February 2016, by Permuted Press.

I've created a Spotify Playlist for The Dark World

Spotify Playlist for The Dark World

and The Immortal's Guide at the behest of my lovely boyfriend, and I'm quite pleased with the result, although I, myself, don't really base the music I listen to off what I'm writing at the time. I've stated before in this blog, I believe, that while the music is on, I'm lost in the story, and the music is merely background noise anyhow. I leave music on while doing homework, writing my books, playing the Sims 4,

The-Sims-4-release-date

or

Dragon Age: Inquisition

dainquisitionBoth games take up a good chunk of my time, well they did. I have been writing into the wee hours of the night, some great stuff as well, and I can't wait to have you guys read it.

Also, you guys can add me on Instagram to see what I'm up to as I'll more than likely post pictures and such about my life and the books. You can also access my instagram by looking over to the left of this post - my feed is right there. 🙂

Another thing, I'm attempting to be more active on Twitter, and would be more than welcome in talking to a few of you, be it readers or other authors. If you're so inclined you can follow me here.

With all of this, working, and transferring to a new school for January, I'm quite the busy bee...or...vampire-enthusiast, if you will. Ah well, nothing like work, and the comfort of home, and loved ones to see it all through.

Accurate depiction of my loved ones.

I hope you are all happy, and doing what you love.

Do keep your bite,

bite

and visit me at SCParris.com for all my little personal quips and tidbits that aren't really writing related.

Go on, I'll wait.

And do follow The Dark World Series's Tumblr Page. I believe it captures the theme of the whole series quite well.

Like this, for instance.

TTFN, you vampire-loving, blood-sucking, night-walking sons of you know what!

NEW Patreon Subs Get A Free EBook!
To make this quick, since Fanhouse has gone down, I’ve moved back to Patreon for sharing streaming, TTRPG, and selfie-related stuff I have going on in my life.
The Dark of Ancestry
I've been exploring the ancestry in the second book of SINNER SHARPE's story. However, this story explores Dagger's ancestry, whereas book one was solely focused on Sinner's (admittedly dark) ancestry.
The Dark World: Book 1 is Free — No More!
Jan 17th, 2023 - EDIT: THE DARK WORLD: BOOK 1 is no longer free but you can read snippet of the book on Amazon as well as pick up the ebook cheaper at my shop for only $1.99!
The New Year & A New Focus On My Vampires
I'm choosing, with this round of storytelling, to dive into 'harder topics,' and things I want to write about. I want to give my worlds more nuance, my characters more stakes, and hopefully more heart. I write for everyone but I cannot deny my experiences--Black experiences--are what have shaped me and should shape my writing. I'm adamant about this because of the erasure of my Black characters in THE DARK WORLD series by white readers.
