Programming Note
Use sun screen! I say that because I had a squamous cell skin cancer (the good kind) taken off one of the fingers of my left hand yesterday and it hurts like a wild...

Heroes and villains
The topic at hand this week is to do with heroes and villains, and what literary bad boys and girls we in the Fictionistas can’t do without. Before I get into that, yes, I...
Back in the Saddle
Catching up after a very busy week! I’ve been pulling couch duty working on my books for almost two years, and I kind of forgot what it was like to have to show up...
Awesome Con and BEA!
It’s a big week here at Alexander Industries! I’m off to BEA (that’s Book Expo America, you peasant) on Thursday to meet n greet n drink with my fellow Booktropians Kellie Sheridan (the boss...
And now a few words from my fish…
The Fictionistas are taking a break this week, and I am gearing up to share some news of my own. So while we all regroup, here’s my Wednesday post from a few weeks ago....
Wednesday is Fictionista Day
I’ve been making vlogs with four lovely and talented authors for five weeks. Someone explain to me why I haven’t been posting them here! You can find the series on You Tube, look for...
Release date and some repair work
June 16th! It’s my release date. My new release date- the earlier one was reconsidered. This was my initial reaction: WHY? WHY HAVE I BROUGHT SHAME TO THE VILLAGE? I HAVE TO GO BACK TO BEING...
Writing Rituals
This week the Fictionistas were supposed to be talking about the music we listen to while we write. I’ve already stated that unless it’s the soothing thrum of a jackhammer or the delicate polytonal...
It’s actually still a terrible word
My gang, The Fictionistas, are talking about editing fails this week – what trips us up, words we are (for some reason) in love with, things we can be counted on to get wrong....
The Demon Door Cover Reveal Day! Plus bonus secret knowledge!
I was going to get all misty-eyed and fancy about the work that went into this book, but let’s save that for my acceptance speech. (I see you, People’s Choice Awards.) Here is...
” A delightful urban fantasy with heart and humor! …Kim Alexander was also the narrator, and she did a perfect job! I am very impressed. She is as excellent at narrating her own book as Neil Gaiman and Bryan Cranston. Kim Alexander brings the story to life with vigor, humor, and great pacing.”

“A unicorn walks into a bar….”
That is not a joke.
Look, I’m a bartender. I have nothing to do with the xenos. I don’t care if it’s an elf or a vampire – as long as they don’t bother me, I steer clear. I have my reasons – you can see them in the scars on my neck.
I never wanted to get involved. But my life changed for the second time when I saved the life of a unicorn. I made an enemy of something old – old and evil, and whatever it was, it’ll be back for another try. I also made a friend when I decided to help March. He’s only been a human man for a day. I’m responsible for him now. He’s my friend…and maybe something more. Maybe a lot more.
It doesn’t matter to me that he isn’t magical anymore. I don’t care if he’s not Pure.
But he does.
From best-selling author Kim Alexander comes a modern fairy tale of magic, love, and redemption.
