[Monthly Ollie] A big update month!

Some secret and not-so-secret publishing news.

Published June 16, 2026 by Oleander Craw in Newsletter Share

Summer is officially here for me, which means I'm scrambling to juggle all my gardening projects while also trying to dedicate time to writing and my full time job (As an aside, my big dream is to be able to quit said full time job and write full time....someday, maybe. Fingers crossed!).

Basically, I'm busy as shit at the moment. Absolutely swamped.

In today's monthly newsletter, I'm going to be talking about the following:

I Have An Agent!
Writing Updates: Devouring Fortune Kickstarter & What's Next
A Shiny Internet Thing: Super Mega SFF Story Ideator
What I Read: Moonflow by Bitter Karella
Asshole of the Month: Morrigan
