In case you missed my recent post in my reader group on Facebook, C. J.’s Coterie, I’ve got quite a few updates to share with you guys. You may have noticed that it’s been quite a while since I posted a Deadly Destiny installment, and I apologize for that. It’s temporarily on hiatus while I get Coven of Lies updated for its expanded second edition release and while I write Coven of Shadows, which will release later this year.

There was a time where I could easily juggle everything and work on 5+ projects at a time, but now is not that time. I am dealing with several chronic mental and physical health issues that drain me energetically and creatively. Those issues include ADHD (which is the bane of my existence), PCOS, migraines, two severe vitamin deficiencies, extreme obstructive sleep apnea, and an as-yet unidentified autoimmune issue.

Anuclear antibodies and high levels of c-reactive protein showed up in my recent bloodwork. Along with my butterfly rash, joint pain, fatigue, brain fog, anxiety/depression, and near-constant stomach issues, that seems to indicate an autoimmune problem of some kind, but I won’t know more until I see the rheumatologist I’ve been referred to.

I’m hoping my doctor(s) and I can put together a plan where I can actually function and get fully caught up.

I love you guys, and I’ve got more stories coming at you ASAP.
