The Phoenix

Revealed, book one of the Plume series by Ella Ardent

The books in the Phoenix series have been republished in new editions. The main difference from the older editions are the newsletter links and the website links.

You can find the Phoenix series here.

Revealed is free at some portals. Newsletter subscribers can download a copy of Revealed free as part of the welcome sequence – it’ll be in the February newsletter, too. You can sign up for my newsletter with this link. πŸ™‚

Book Updates

I’m working through my book list and making progress!

First, I had to change newsletter services, and replace that link in the endmatter of all books. If you were subscribed via MailChimp, don’t worry – I migrated you over to Mailerlite. The newsletter will be coming from a different email address, though, one from this website. I created a pop-up, too, and am pretty proud of that. πŸ™‚

Right now, The Plume, The Plume Collections, The Wedding and Euphoria are uploaded at the portals.

I republished the trade paperbacks of The Plume Collections and The Wedding at Amazon.

My books have been published at Google Play now, too, and I’ve added the links to the website. I’m not sure they were ever there before. (?)

Next up, Dangerous and The Phoenix.

I’ve also opened an account at BookFunnel and will participating in some multi-author promotions there. The first one will be on February 10, so stay tuned for that!

Radish

Radish is a reading app for serialized fiction. Since many of my books were serialized when they were first published, it seemed like a good fit for me so I’ve signed up.

I’m starting with The Plume there and it’s publishing now. The episodes are smaller at Radish, just 1000 to 2000 words, and there’s an episode posting per day. It’s going to take a while to unfurl there!

You can learn more about Radish on their website, right here.

The Plume Collections

The Plume Collections by Ella Ardent

The Plume Collections are republished at the major portals and the links are updated here on the site. Note that The Plume: The Complete Collection won’t be available at Amazon. (They don’t pay the full royalty on books priced over $9.99.)

There will be print editions (trade paperbacks) distributed from Amazon, but I’m waiting for the cover designer to add that hyphen into my website url on the back cover of each one.

Progress is made!

I’m going to write for a bit now. Reformatting Dangerous will be a bigger job and the Phoenix Series will take a while, too. I need to play with words instead of publishing. πŸ™‚

I’m Back!

I took a hiatus from writing and publishing when things became overwhelming, but I’m back. I’m writing again and having a wonderful time with itβ€”I hope to have some new stories for you to read soon.

I also have this shiny new website. Rebuilding it gave me a good excuse to update the design. I went with purples and blues since my newer covers are in those colours. My books had red and black covers once upon a time, but I love the purples and blues. That meant new covers for the nine Plume stories, too. I’ve set up the newsletter sign-up again, which was a little less easy but is done. (Phew.) Note that I have a slightly different domain name this time, so if you were reading my books and/or following me before, please update your bookmarks.

I’m going to steer clear of social media in the short term to keep my focus on writing. I’m always happy to hear from you, but you’ll need to comment here for me to see it.

Republishing my books is a big job, since (again) it’s a good chance to update the interiors and the descriptions. I’ve republished The Plume, The Wedding and Euphoria so far. I’ll post here when the books in each series are uploaded and will add links to the book pages when they’re live at the portals.

I’m writing a new story which reminds me a bit of The Plume, with a big cast of characters and lots of hot scenes. There’s a love triangle and many emotional complications to the participants expect to be simple pleasure. I’m really enjoying this story, and am going to write it all before publishing even the first bit (even though it will likely be serialized). Once that’s done and I feel like I’ve found my center again, I’ll have a look at the stories that need to be finished. The Phoenix has one more story left to be told (at least) and Euphoria has three more books outstanding – I even have the covers already! – so I’ll re-read everything and make a plan.

It feels really good to be writing again. I hope you missed me and my books a little bit πŸ™‚ and am looking forward to new fictional adventures.
