  • SHADOW DEMONS, Chapter Two: Then Who?

    It’s Friday again, and I have another teaser chapter of SHADOW DEMONS to give to you! Like I mentioned last week, this isn’t by any means the final edit of the chapter, but it’s very close to what you’ll find in the book once it is published. I am already more than halfway through this round of edits and feeling good about the direction of this book. I’m definitely getting closer and closer to a release date, so stay tuned for more news! If you haven’t read chapter one, you can find it here. Then Who? Mary Anne led us…

  • 21 Days to Vegas

    My husband and I are going to Las Vegas in exactly 21 days! I am so excited I can barely see straight. The only other time I have been to Vegas was for our wedding in December of 2009. We had been hoping to go back for our 1 year anniversary, but between family obligations and my new career getting started, we weren’t able to make it. Instead, we decided to go for G’s bday. Right now, I am working hours and hours a day to make sure SHADOW DEMONS comes out before we leave. I have no doubt that…

  • Self-Publishing Resources

    On Saturday, I gave a talk on self-publishing at my local Romance Writers of America meeting. Our local chapter is the Heart of Carolina Romance Writers, and I have been a member of the group since 2007. If you are a writer in the Raleigh/Durham area, I highly recommend joining or at least coming for a visit. I had such a great time talking about my experiences so far as an Indie author. For the talk, I decided to put together a series of handouts and walk-throughs people could refer to if they were interested in learning more about self-publishing….

  • SHADOW DEMONS, Chapter One: Vengeance

    As I announced earlier this week, I have decided to release one chapter a week until the release of SHADOW DEMONS, Book 4 of the Peachville High Demons series. Most of you who read my books already know that my chapters are pretty short, but hopefully this little teaser about the start of the book will give you some insight into the path this story is going to take. I’m excited to release Chapter One: Vengeance today on my blog! NOTE: This isn’t the absolute, final edited version of the chapter. It’s just what I have right now as I’m…

  • Best-seller Sandwich

    This morning I was happily checking my Amazon page to see if I had any new reviews and to check my sales rank. It’s part of my morning routine and it always makes me happy just to see my book online and realize that one of my greatest dreams in life has come true. I’m an author! But this morning held a sweet little surprise of chance. When I checked the sales ranking for BEAUTIFUL DEMONS, I saw that I was back in the top 1000 ebooks on Kindle. Usually when that happens, my book goes into the Top 100…

  • Shadow Demons Update

    I know there are a lot of people waiting for updates on Book 4 of the Peachville High Demons series. Last night, I met with my critique group. They critiqued the first half of the book and reassured me that the story is on the right track. I have some revisions to work on after talking to them last night, but more importantly, I am still working on edits for the second half of the book. I hate to announce another delay. I don’t want anyone to think that I am flaking out or not reliable in any way. On…
