This is going to be a fun entry to write! I'm so excited for the finalizing of the Hour of Dreams and cannot wait to hear what you think about it. I hope you like it as much as me, because it just feels like such a long- coming, appropriate ending to Sophie and Wes' journey.

Hi Shelena!! Currently reading the broken lake, borrowed by the latin books tour. It's so good I can't put it down! Thanks so much for donating it so we could have the chance to read it too!!
Lacey wrote: "Okay, I know I came into this series late and all but I thought both books were AMAZING! I just finished Broken Lake. I simply cannot wait for August!! Thanks so much for caring for your characters..."Thank you Lacey! I'm really happy you enjoyed them! And thank YOU for caring for the characters too. Your compliments and enthusiasm definitely motivate me to sit down for another writing session :D!
Okay, I know I came into this series late and all but I thought both books were AMAZING! I just finished Broken Lake. I simply cannot wait for August!! Thanks so much for caring for your characters and nurturing them in a way that only their creator can do!! Keep on writing, never let any obstacle get in your way!!
Woot! Can't wait!! Thanks Shelena. About Tina... she's sunshine and smiles... all.the.time! She's awesomesause. :D
Arlene wrote: "Do you know at this point if it's a 3, 4, 5+ book series? Good luck on the final edits! :)"
The conclusion will be book 4. I've had some requests for a prequel, so who knows, maybe one day!

Thanks! But I feel that my second draft will blow the first out of the water. lol. I'm changing up a lot, adding more premise to it, more characters, and trimming a good bit. Seemingly, I don't know how to write a book under 100k words. lol. It's VERY hard for me! lol.
Oh YEAH I'm splitting it up into two books! lol. The next one will be "Time With Seleste-Fate." It's an in all conclusion to the story, which I've worked my butt off working on a perfect ending. lol.
ANYWAYS, I got to ranting there. Sorries! lol :D
I do have faith in Wes! haha. He makes me drool, he's so yummy. haha.
And thanks! About my picture!
