In the mood for a cozy romance? I've dropped the price on these two books: one a cozy contemporary with a reluctant royal and the other a cozy paranormal with later in life characters. You can pick them up here: tinyurl.com/CassidyCarso...

We’re preparing for another book event tomorrow and just tested our pop-up canopy for the first time. We’ll try to get video in the morning because I’m sure it will be hilarious! 😄

The mass enjoyment of K-Pop Demon Hunters and Taylor Swift's new album are wonderful! I'm really enjoying this pop culture moment myself. I'd love to see something similar, even on small scale, happen to an indie author (like myself or my husband). Wouldn't that be amazing?

Happy Monday friends! Hope you're all having a great start to the week. I'm not feeling great so I've given myself permission to relax after recording another episode of "The Nevada Author Network" podcast with @jthume.bsky.social. Sometimes, we just need to rest.
