  • My Graphic Novel News!!!!!

    So you know that I’ve been keeping a secret from you, but I just signed my official contract yesterday and got the go-ahead to make the big announcement: The Peachville High Demons series is going to be turned into Graphic Novels by the amazing Sea Lion Books!!!! I cannot tell you how incredibly excited I am about this.

If you aren’t familiar with graphic novels, basically they are novels told through…

  • So Close To The Next Milestone!!

    September is going to be one of the most exciting in my publishing career so far!! As of the beginning of this month, I have sold 97,579 books! I am so incredibly close to the HUGE milestone of 100,000 paid sales, and I have no doubt I will hit it within the next couple of weeks. In fact, I’m still waiting for my August sales figures from the iTunes store, which could push me up as far as 99,000 or more. EEEEEEK!!!! I honestly can’t believe this is happening. And the fact that I’m this close before I’ve even hit…

  • Demons Forever Release Date!

    The number one question I’ve been asked in emails and on facebook and twitter over the past several months is: When is book 6 coming out? Trust me when I say that it’s a question I’ve been asking myself a lot too! Life with a new baby is not easy, as I’m sure many of you ladies know! I’m not meaning to make excuses, but I’ve had a rough time of it since Andrew was born. I won’t go into all of the details, but I’ve had three separate infections that have left me with fevers and exhaustion. That means…

  • Balance

    Life as a new mother is all about balance. I want to spend as much time as possible with my beautiful new baby. On the other hand, I also want to maintain some form of my life before baby. In those first few weeks, I had a lot of teary nights when I wondered, “Will I ever be ME again?” Those emotional moments were no doubt very hormone-filled, so I can’t entirely be blamed, haha. Still, there was some truth in that fear. I am a lot of things. Writer. Wife. Music-Lover. Horror-Film-Connoisseur. Reader. Now I just have to learn to…

  • Sweet Baby Andrew and Getting Back to Work

    Hi everyone!! I know it’s been a ridiculously long time since I posted, but I have been enjoying my maternity leave and settling into life as a new mother. As an update, my sweet little man was born June 12th at 6:04pm weighing 9lbs, 3oz. That means he just turned one month old, which is super hard to believe. Here are a couple of cutie cute pics of him (just because every proud mama needs to share pics of her baby!). Isn’t he the cutest?? I know I’m biased, but he really is a precious baby. (Oh, and please ignore…
