Jumping in, two feet forward

I feel as though I'm completely jumping into part of the market world. I've signed and paid for my first ad to be placed (no, I'm not saying where or how much--maybe if it works or does work, there will be another post on that). I've been doing a lot of giveaways with eBooks and …

A day for the future…

Today is one of those days that I will forever remember. December 1, 2013 marks so many milestones in my life that to put one above the other is completely impossible. There are two very important ones that I want to talk about. Family is something extremely important to me. Most people don’t know, and …

WIPpet Wednesday!! November 20, 2013

Sorry about missing last week. I couldn't drag myself to the computer to do this (even though I skipped class and didn't even have that to contend with). NaNoWriMo is going incredibly slow for me. Meaning, I'm not really writing lately. I need to fix that if I want to even hit 0,000 words this …

Crashing into the atmosphere!

Tomorrow marks the first day of my blog tour for Dying Embers. There will be interviews, excerpts posted and spotlights all over the internet! Well, at least a small portion of the internet. I can't tell you how excited I am for this book to come out (in both senses of that term). Dying Embers …

Tiaras, crowns and the royal throne!

I thought that I should give you all an update on what's going on book-wise. I've been posting excerpts for awhile now, but I think a succinct post on them all might be helpful. To bring it all down to the basics, I've been editing a lot lately and not writing. This has got to …

Dying Embers RELEASE

Hello everyone, I'm writing this post today because I got some news. The official release date for Dying Embers is December 1, 2013. I really want to do a blog tour for my release, and that's where you come in. If you're available and would like to help me out, I will forever be grateful …

WIPpet Wednesday!! September 4, 2013

Good morning and welcome to the land of the living. I absolutely almost forgot that today was Wednesday. *hides* but I remembered!! In time, of course. It's been a crazy week, but this morning I was filled with reading about Zombis in Haiti (they're real there), and witches who are high on drugs and use …

Interview with Aaron Speca & Cover Reveal for “Dying Embers”

Hey y'all (I can say that since I live in Texas). I was interviewed by Aaron Speca, an amazing, amazing person. The interview went live today. I have to say, this is was the funnest interview I have done so far. He did a great job on it. ALSO!!!!! On a more exciting note, there's …

The wonderful world of writing!

I received an email from my publisher this morning with my final final edits to Dying Embers. That means, I have one more round and it's done and ready for print. YAY! She also said that she wanted to bump up my release date. Now, it's looking like Dying Embers will be released in December. …

Ashes Fall and the end of the James Matthew’s Trilogy

Today is a day to be remembered! But isn't every day? =P I spent about six hours writing today and completed the novel "Ashes Fall" in almost record time. If you only count the days that I wrote during NaNo, it probably is. However, I started writing this novel in February.  It was slow going; …

WIPpet Wednesday: June 5th, 2013

Good morning! Guess what! Tomorrow is my birthday, so you're getting something extra special today. I'm currently editing the prequel to my novel that's out...this one is called DYING EMBERS. It's so exciting. I should have it done by the end of this week (in theory). Today you will get two scenes, the first is …

Goals for June

Each month I have a writers group meeting in Arlington, TX where we discuss what our monthly goals are. I think I might be a little overambitious this month, but I need to get it done. This group hasn't met since March, so it was great to finally get together again, with someone new AND …

Dying Embers: Take Two

I can't tell you how nervous I still get when emailing my publisher (or the fact that half the time I'm still in wonder about having a publisher!). I'm not kidding. My first book, FOREVER BURN, has been out since March 1, coming up on three months now, and it seems to be doing fairly …

February Goals!

February is fast and coming. AKA THAT'S TOMORROW! Yikes! I have two goals for Feb.  I'm changing it up from my original goals because I need the help. So I have two goals, aside from my general school studies and actually being up-to-date with my readings. 1. Write my super secret project 2. Edit "Dying …
