It’s the Release Day for The Dream Hunt!
Today is the day! The Dream Hunt, book 2 in the Dreamscape series, is ready for you to read! I’m so excited for you to dive into this adventurous and thrilling book. When my family visited Peru, I was transported by the beauty, history, and people of this stunning country.
It was while we were exploring the catacombs under the Basilica and Convent of San Francisco in Lima, that my family was like, “You need to write a book set here!” And so I did! That experience inspired me to write a sequel to The Dream Heist.
So I invite you to relive that trip with me (okay, so we weren’t being chased by bad guys, entered nightmares, or survived explosions). As you take your adventure, feel free to use this tracker. The paperback is available on all book outlets and the e-book is available on Amazon and KU. Here are quick links for you:
Thank you for celebrating with me! Grab a virtual cupcake!

My Website Has a New Look
I’m in love with the brand new look of my website. Huge thanks to Biondo Studio for creating such a stunning website with a clean and fresh feel. In this site, I wanted to showcase my books and share with you all of the latest things I’ve been up to. I also had new author photos taken. Abby Liga is my photographer, and once again she created a series of stunning shots that I’ve placed on the site.
I’ve got some exciting things in the works that I can’t wait to share with you over the next few months. One of things I’m now offering is Coaching with Christina. Many of you have reached out for writing and publishing advice, which I love to give through my workshops. But now I’m offering one on one coaching for those of you who want to elevate your craft or need guidance in publishing. To find out all the details, go here and scroll to the bottom. I can’t wait to work with you!
Kindle Vella Workshop
Kindle Vella has been a big part of my life over the past year and a half. I joined the program when it first started with THE DREAM HEIST, which hit #3 of all stories on Kindle Vella and stayed in the top 25 for over a year! My agent then went on to sell audio rights to Blackstone Publishing, and we are looking at film next! I’m currently releasing a new story, THE IMMORTAL SECRET, on the platform. That story has been in a Top Faved story since it first launched in September. read more…
