NIGHTBIRDS: Let's Talk Spoilers

It's FYREBIRDS month on The Exploress! To celebrate the release of my second novel, and the conclusion of the NIGHTBIRDS series, I'm sharing an episode of my other podcast, Pub Dates, where I've been taking listeners behind the scenes on this series' creation. In this episode, I'm going to answer reader's burning questions about NIGHTBIRDS. Warning: there will be spoilers in here, so save this one for later if you haven't read the book yet.

My second novel, FYREBIRDS, is hitting shelves on August 27th, and it would mean a huge amount if you'd pick up a copy. If you do, I'll send you some very special prizes, including a signed bookplate and some NIGHTBIRDS-inspired art. You can claim them right here, or go to my author website to find out more. If you'd like a recap of NIGHTBIRDS before the sequel arrives, go and listen to my four-part recap series over on Pub Dates.
