I'm going to have a bit of a surprise for my readers of From Ashe, but I'm afraid it will be a while before you see it. I will say the work on it is completed, but it's something that can't be shared until after the series ends with Vol. 18. I hope you look forward to it. #oeln

From Ashe Vol. 6's cover holds an Easter Egg! On the PC behind Saraya is the actual ending to the series! Blow it up, you won't be able to read it! I've left clues throughout the books. Have you guessed what the true ending is?

I love getting DMs from AI bots telling me that they enjoyed reading my book "Girlfriend Who Delivered Shopping."

I guess that's book #36 now? I didn't even realize I had written that one! I must be getting good at this author thing.

Takumi and Lynn were one of my favorite couples to write. Takumi was always shy, polite, and reserved, while Lynn loved to show her affection by teasing him! Read about them in A.R. Dragonfly!

Her real name is Ciel West, her pen name is Arya Primrose. She's a writer alongside Ashe at Meteora Press and somewhat of a mentor. Sassy, sharp-tongued, but caring, you can meet Ciel in From Ashe.

12,185 words... that's for just one chapter of From Ashe Vol. 16... that's the most words I've ever written for any single chapter in the previous 34 books I wrote.
