Reboot of Self-Publishing Musts for Starting Out
November 21, 2013 by 1 Comment
I wrote this over two years ago when I was young and naive…. ahhhhh. The good-old days. But, since it still gets hits, I figured I should update it. A lot of things have changed (some for real, and some just my opinion) and so, here goes: The thing is, I’m still a newbie in most ways. I still work my day job about 60 hours a week and squeeze writing life in as much as I can. I’m not {Read More}

I’ve been noticing something lately. There have been some key writers who basically are continuously saying “Yeah, I’m awesome. My books rock” (that would be a direct quote said completely seriously by someone to me in a bar) and their own confidence is either: self-fulfilling; or completely justified But, it’s one of those things that has me thinking… Do I need to portray my confidence in my stories more?

I’d known I wanted to understand the self-publishing world since I believed we were moving more and more toward a publishing paradigm. And, I loved it.

I think BLF (Book Launch Fear) is something we don’t talk about out of the shadows. We talk about how excited we are to share a book and how happy we are with the finished product and how much we love our characters. But sometimes… sometimes… sometimes there’s a little fear in there too. My next book, Secret Life (RVHS Secrets #2) is the second in my series of standalones around teens at Ridge View High – there’s soccer gods {Read More}
SECRET LIFE – Cover Reveal & Excerpt
October 15, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Rachel Wells is a liar—big time. No one outside her family knows about the panic attacks or meds, the weekly therapy drive-bys or the “safe” outfit. If she could hide it all from her string of ex-boyfriends and her best friend Amy, then why should anything change? But, when the one guy as messed up as she is blackmails her into helping him, life goes from closely restrained to out of control. Sometimes choosing between sanity and {Read More}

October 3, 2013 by 9 Comments
Since her mom died, Amy Whalen’s been invisible—but not in the cool, superpower kind of way. Overlooked at school and ignored at home, Amy holds tight to her few constants: running, painting, and her long-held crush on soccer god, Chris Kent. But as senior year nears, Chris doesn’t just notice her, he needs her. Amy will agree to almost anything to be with him. Everything is great—sort of—until Luke Parker shows up for soccer tryouts and sees through every one {Read More}
