To My Readers: Elemental Update!

Hello Everyone!

I hope you are gearing up to enjoy time with your loved ones this holiday season! I've been working hard to get Tainted (Netherworld Book II) finished and ready for my January release . . . keeping my fingers crossed it will all work out, lol.

For those of you wondering about the state of my Elemental series, I wanted to let you know what my plans are for the world and the characters. Since finishing Elemental Enmity, I've had plans to expand the world and the focus of the Elemental world. The story is by no means over. I loved telling Elemental Enmity from Rayla's point of view. I loved being in her head and experiencing her life along with her.

As I've thought about how to move the story forward, a few things have become clear to me: First, I can't go forward with just Rayla's point of view. You would miss too much of the story if I did. And second, there are so many characters involved, I'm probably going to be writing the new series in third person. I'm not a lover of third person narrative, but this story is demanding it. I'll have to jump all over the place, which would get crazy if I switched narrators throughout.

Rayla's story gave us a window's view into this complex world of the Order and the Fae. Going forward, we will have a full open door into the world, the characters, and I hope this will be a pleasant change for all of you. I've only just started the first installment of the new series, so it will be summer before I'll complete it.

The new series is called Elemental Legacy. I haven't picked out a name for the first installment, but I have already started the first stages of the cover design. I'm so excited for this one, and I hope you all are too! Thank you so much for stopping by and for caring about this world as much as I do! You are all so wonderful, and I appreciate you so very much!

Happy Holidays. I hope you get some reading in. For me, it will be editing and writing, lol.

Much love,

Christie

    1. Thank you, Leslie! I'm so humbled and honored that you love my books! I am working on the third installment of my Netherworld series. Then, I will tackle #2 of Elemental Legacy. I love these characters and how the story is unfolding. Even I am surprised quite a bit, which keeps me engaged in discovering the hidden depths. I so appreciate your kind words. You have made my day! Thanks!
