Announcement: Siren's Mark & Siren's Fall are Coming to Paperback!

I have some very big news! After years of work and a few heartbreaks, I'm finally self-publishing my books! Siren's Mark & Siren's Fall are scheduled for release in paperback this year on October 7th.

I've been pulling together a lot behind the scenes to make this book happen—covers, internal formatting, editing, eBook design, and a lot of other dreadfully boring nonsense like ISBNs and metadata keywords. But the result is that I officially have a release date for my books and they will be coming to you soon!

Both books have been edited and updated. Don't worry, the heart of the story is still the same—just stronger, cleaner, and (in my humble opinion) even better. Think of it as the ultimate director's cut, but still very much the story you fell in love with.

If you're not into physical copies or aren't in a position to buy one right now, both books will also be available in eBook form on Kindle Unlimited. Unfortunately, that means that I will have to remove them from Wattpad later this year. That said, my other books will still remain on Wattpad.

So what now? Well, if you want to buy the books, sign up for my newsletter, where I'll be sending more details on that in the coming weeks. I will also be sending info on how to sign up to get an ARC copy for review.

Over on my Instagram, I'll be revealing the covers soon. They were designed by a very talented designer, Lisa aka Little Forest Cat. (You can click here to check out her Instagram.)

Thank you, truly, for sticking with me. I can't wait to share these books with you!

The Journey to Print (aka My Super Frustrating Year)

Hey, everyone!

If you’ve been wondering about the future of the Siren’s series in print (and where I’ve disappeared to lately), I owe you an update. Behind the scenes, I’ve been working on something that felt like a dream come true: a chance to see Siren’s Mark and Siren’s Fall in print! Yes, real-life physical books. I was over the moon about the opportunity and signed a contract with a publisher, imagining the thrill of holding my stories in my hands—and knowing you could too.

But sometimes, life throws a plot twist you don’t see coming. The publisher had to make internal cuts and decided to cancel my contract at the very last minute. I was absolutely heartbroken. It felt like watching a dream slip through my fingers after getting so freaking close. UGGH!

So, what now? After some time to regroup (and a lot of drowning my sorrows in desserts), I’ve decided to take matters into my own hands. Self-publishing is really freaking hard, but it’s the one option where I get to call the shots—and finally give you the print copies you’ve been asking for!

Over the next few months, I’ll be prepping Siren’s Mark and Siren’s Fall for publication (again). I'm tweaking a couple of minor things to make the stories even smoother, but don’t worry—nothing major is changing. I plan to release them in 2025, though I can’t give you an exact date just yet. Newsletter subscribers will get the inside scoop on my progress, and I’ll be sharing updates on Instagram too.

For now, the books will stay on Wattpad. That might change depending on how the publishing process goes, but I’ll keep you in the loop.

I know not everyone will be able to afford the print versions, and I’ll do my best to make them as affordable and widely available as possible. Even if a purchase isn’t in the cards for you, your support—whether it’s a like, a share, or a kind word—means the world to me.

I’m still sad about the lost opportunity and honestly totally scared about going solo. But I’m hopeful too. Because at the end of the day, I write for you. Your love for these stories has carried me through this rollercoaster, and I can’t wait to share this next chapter with you.

Thank you for being here.

Love always,

Lux

Oh and P.S., during all this I’ll be posting a new book on Wattpad too—specifically that Morgan spin off you’ve all been asking for!

Interview with Lux: How I Start a Novel

I recently sat down with the YouTube channel Film Courage to discuss my writing process. Here's what I had to say about my process for starting a new book.

So, guess what? I recently ventured into the wild world of on-camera interviews with the YouTube channel Film Courage! They asked me to come chat with them about my writing process, and despite my serious allergy to being in front of a camera, I managed to survived the experience. I mean, sure, there might have been a moment or two where I questioned my life choices, but hey, that's just part of the fun, right?

In the interview, I talked on my writing process, from inspiration to creating an outline. And yeah, I might have gone down the rabbit hole of fanfiction, Harry Styles, and Anna Todd's After series.

Now, full disclosure: I haven't actually watched it myself because, let's face it, watching yourself on video is a cringe-inducing nightmare. But hey, my friends and family swear I didn't make a complete fool of myself, so there's that. So if you're into writing or even just want some insight into my process, you can check it out:
