Burned Out and Bled Dry is a murder mystery that follows Tyler, a stressed out, workaholic young associate at a large law firm whose career goals come into jeopardy when she discovers her boss Kevin's corpse in the trunk of her car and becomes involved in the subsequent murder investigation. After discovering Kevin's body, Tyler worries that reporting her discovery and fielding police questions would take too much time away from her work, not to mention that being involved in her boss' murder investigation would unquestionably damage her reputation at the firm. While trying to convince herself to do the right thing and report the body to the police, Tyler overdrinks and decides to delay her call until she sobers up. The next morning she discovers there is nothing to report: the body is gone. In short order, Kevin's body turns up in the firm's garage and Tyler's omission is uncovered by the police. Shamed by her selfish knee-jerk reaction to prioritize work over reporting a murder, Tyler begins to investigate Kevin's murder. While investigating, she contends with Kevin's hostile replacement, the pressure to perform at a high level and avoid being ejected from the nose hair wax defense team, and her growing suspicion that the murderer is one of her coworkers. Will Tyler solve Kevin's murder before being killed-or worse, fired?

* WINNER OF THE GOLDEN WIZARD BOOK PRIZE - 2024 * Blu's path in life seemed to be engraved by his ancestors. Generations of Easter rabbits claimed his father's side of the family tree. How could he disappoint his family? His friends? The whole town? Blu Hoppington was right on schedule to be the next, Easter Bunny. His classes were due to begin, along with his apprenticeship, and everyone was delighted. Except for Blu. He had absolutely no desire to attend Bakers Dozen University. Coursework teeming with egg coloring, weaving those baskets...nothing but glorified buckets...plus, hoards of dreadful hens...all the things of nightmares. He simply didn't want the job. No, Sir. No, thank you. So what's a rabbit to do when he's expected to spend the rest of his life fraternizing with chickens who hate him? Sometimes, a forbidden run through the forest is just the kick in the trousers a rabbit needs to gain a little perspective. Such activities can also result in a life-altering kinship. Exploring an old, dusty attic could even prove to be all the confirmation a rabbit fellow needs to follow his own dreams, making his own path. But, going against the grain isn't always easy. It takes heart and determination. It takes the help of a few good friends. It takes just the right pair of pants and maybe a little touch of magic.
