I’m working hard at finding awesomeness in each day because while there are sad and challenging things going on in my personal life, there are awesome things too. And it all centers around creativity. I encourage you to create every day and embrace the awesomeness.

Check out April’s fantastic Spotlight interview packed full of insight and advice for indie authors.

Meet Paranormal / Urban Romance author Naomi Valkyrie. Naomi packed this Spotlight with a wealth of insight and experience as an indie author. Reap the benefits as I have.

Get your romance on with the Romance Book Blast FREE e-book event April 28. Here are few selections in the Paranormal Romance section.

This event and many crafty ones are filling my calendar. Here are a few just for fun:

  • The Modern Folk Embroidery’s April 30-day Quick Quaker Challenge
  • Fox and Rabbit’s 2026 Mystery Sampler Stitch Along
  • Lola Crow’s 2026 Mystery Stitch Along, Museum After Midnight

D. L. Lewellyn’s passion for writing began in 2020, following a summer of voracious, lockdown-induced reading in her favorite genre, paranormal romance. Besides her self-published books, her stories have appeared in anthologies, and more novels are on the horizon. Not surprising. Anyone who knows her will tell you she’s a dedicated multi-crafter. A peek inside her colorful, cluttered studio also gives you an idea. She enjoys blogging, chatting with indie authors on her Spotlight, and watching classic movies with her husband—a bowl of popcorn on her lap and her rescued fur babies at her feet.

“I cried, I laughed, and I was angry. The ride was so worth it! This series was my introduction to reading this genre. I have found this to be some of the best writing, story telling and follow through on all character paths of any prior reading of any genre.”
