What I've been working on

I'll be doing a post on the moon signs in the near future. I’ve been hard at work getting my next book, The Child of Aokigahara, ready to come out. It takes place five years after The Girl With the Collywobbles, and includes yokai, yurei, and telepathy. 
My husband is designing the cover and so he wants me to come up with a synopsis. I find this to be the hardest part about writing (well, aside from marketing) but this is a rough draft I came up with somewhere around my third drink last night:
The second book in the series, The Child of Aokigahara marks the beginning of a new arc. It’s five years after the end of The Girl with the Collywobbles and Aletheia is on a reality tv show in Japan, chasing yokai. One day, she and Edgar have a romantic afternoon in Suicide Forest, resulting in her unexpected pregnancy. From that point on, she starts having nightmares and telepathically spying on Edgar’s most humiliating secrets while yokai torment him on all of their shoots. As the paranormal phenomena escalate, Edgar begins to suspect something is deeply wrong. He realizes that their only hope is to leave Japan, preferably enlisting the help of an old occultist friend in New Orleans, but Aletheia is afraid to leave and time is running out. Whether you’re new to The Collywobbles Chronicles or a returning fan, this darkly humorous tale will both haunt and entertain you in equal measure.
If all goes well, I hope to have it out on Createspace by this time next month.
