What I’ve been up to 😯

May 3, 2025

Hey, guess this is my monthly update. I can’t juggle everything at once so I’ve been putting my time into some serious writerly business. Unfortunately, things like posting on Instagram or on my blog aren’t happening as often as I’d like.

My plan at this point is to make one video a month and one blog post so I can keep everyone up to where I’m at, as well as give myself the opportunity to continue to express myself in my favorite way; through writing!

💖What have I been up to this month?

I’ve been putting myself out into the three dimensional world more, and now have a summer book tour before me. I’m really happy about this this and have been met with more support than I’d originally expected.

As it turns out, librarians are really cool people that lovingly support authors and make them feel welcome.

Who would have thought? 😋 LOL!

❤️‍🔥 I’m jumping into the world of audiobooks. My ever supportive husband is right now (literally as I write this) building me a recording booth where I can make my books come to life with my voice. 😯🥰🌟

💖I’m working on the final edits for Intertwined; Tangled Moon book two, and it will be available for purchase in e-book and paperback mid-June! Yes, that’s right, folks, it will be the third book I’ve published inside of a year.

Busy.

But it’s a good kind of busy and I’m happily buzzing along.

Hope this finds everyone out in Internet World well.

Love, Darcy

  1. A good friend and I built a soundbooth for my wife. It was a lot of work but it’s awesome and she loves it. Glad to hear about all your successes, Darcy! Keep on writing!🫶😜🕴

    Thank you so much! Yes, I think it’ll be great once it’s built and we can figure out how to use the equipment!

  3. That’s so cool! I could never do anything in person. It took me forever just to use my actual name. I hope it goes really well for you. You’ve worked so hard to get where you are.

    Thank you! You’re doing awesome too. I used to perform back in the day so I’m used to it but I’m still sticking closer to home for book events because it’s more comfortable for me. 😍

  5. Your dreams are valid and you chasing them gives hopes to other romance writers like me that we have a chance at making it big with a writing career

  6. I’m so glad you are charging forward with your writing! I can totally relate to wanting to do so much but being restricted by the time available. If we could just do this full time it would be a dream come true!

  14. Those extracurricular activites are a great way to gather content and enjoy yourself while you’re at it Darcy.

    It happened to me recently. After over a year of contemplating what genre fits me, I’ve finally found my niche. I met an old friend, (a girl, now a woman) who has been through several hardships in life. During the brief conversation we had I was magically inspired by her story. Her story combined with the other hardships and experiences that life has put me through deeply moved me.

    Returning home I decided to write something—Anything!
    After fine tuning the plot and adding additional content drawn from my life, I finally sat down to write three nights ago. Last night the words magically appeared on my screen. As always we writers tend to fall in love with our characters. This afternoon I awoke and instantly remembered the protagonist and spoke to her and her family in my silly head.
    Tonight I shall become her once again and continue to do so for many moons more.

    While the current trend greatly leans towards novellas I have created an elaborate plot that encompasses 24 chapters.

    I realise that this is typical of me. I am a free spirited writer and a rebellious soul too. A 400 page trade paperback will probably get stuck in some dusty cabinet and is destined to fail.

    Just like my chosen genre; Tragic Realism.
    That aside, at the end of the day I write for myself.

    I allow myself to live and breathe through the experiences of my characters, the plot, episodes and finale.

    I’m back to reading Louisa May Alcott, D.H. Lawrence and excerpts from your work too.

    Keep writing, meet the world, live life and have fun.

    From a friend across the globe in N.E India.

    ‘U nongbuh nongthaw un iai kyrkhu ia ka jingim bad ka long iing, long sem jong phi.’

    Translation from the austro-asiatic language, primarily Lau’

    May the creator bless your home family and life.
