BK, where are you?

 The short answer? Around. 
The longer answer? Eh. 

I am alive, and well, and often writing. I think those are the most important things to get out of the way because they probably answer a lot of worries, if there are any. 

Are you still working on - yes, I'm three and a half books deep into a project I really, really, really want to be finished before I hand it over in any part. The time I've taken on this project has allowed me the ability to sit it down, walk away after I poured 380, 000 words into it, and come back and cut 100, 000 out of the first three so it really can be the best it can be. The time has also allowed me to get all but one of the covers done, so when it is finally ready, I'm mere clicks and an upload away from giving you hard dates and a live link for something. 

Did you delete all your author-related social medias? I did, yeah. I no longer have a desire to be in traditional reader/author spaces and don't particularly see the need professionally beyond marketing which i'm not trying to do. I don't really want to be a face or personality online selling books. Writing is no longer my full-time job, and for that, I am more grateful than I can explain. I forgot to live and actually have a life when telling the next family, and the next, and the next became my everyday life. I love to write, when the desire and inspiration strikes me and very little else interests me except the act of writing; I want to do it. I also have to want to want to do it. If there are readers who care to read what I write, I will find a way to get it to you. I do have a X-slash-Twitter account - duskri123 - that I've had since sometime in 2025 as an account to creep on because I can, but only began tweeting on it in the last couple of months as a public diary where any- and everything is fair game. I'm also not on there, trying to sell books. Be warned. 

I can't think of any other immediate questions, but I trust if someone has one, they will let me know. If the website looks different or you can't find something, that's because there is nothing to find except the WORLDS page which will eventually be updated to something penname/catalog friendly. There's also a BOOKS page under construction because it's hard to cleanly compile a digital library as big as mine sometimes. I want to work on a website even less than I want to be on social media, but I'll eventually get around to it. I've done this much so far. 

There's also this blog. Which I may or may not use frequently, to update or link drop, and yeah. That's about it. Some of my Commission World books are changing covers because of various reasons - expiring contracts for some, bad memories for others - so if you see a different looking BK book out in the internet or RL wild, that may be why. A limited number of the original covers exist, with the majority being stocked in my closet for reference. 

Anyway, I have a goal for October and depending on how my progress looks you'll have something definitive on what's coming next. 

For now I'll leave you with the paperback wrap of book 1, done by Lee Ching at Undercover Designs, a blurb, and chapter 3 - the prodigal problem...

Until next time!

XO,
​BK

I can’t wait for the first book I finish all year to be Made In Love and Blood - sincerely someone in the worst slump ever and happy that their fave author is back.
Glad to hear you’ve been doing good too <3

Can't guarantee it'll be released this year but I'm trying very hard to make it happen for at least half the series and/or the first 4 books.

Trying...again. 😉

And thank you. I've spent the last year privately writing and enjoying it. I think it shows in these books.

Xo,
BK
