The end. Finis. Caput. Happily ever after. I finally finished the second draft of my second novel. And by second draft, I mean first draft written a second time from a completely different perspective. A rewrite. One novel born of two.
I’m never doing that again. Well. Until I do that again.
Ever since I decided to self-publish this novel, I made the decision to be transparent during the process....

“Resentment has the potential to consume many who appear to be otherwise blameless. Unresolved caged resentment that one day breaks free and kills all of the delicate innocence in the yard. Acidic, rancorous resentment has gears for teeth that are perfectly oiled by bitterness and possess a judgment unable to discern the corrupted from the good.”
― Kenn Bivins, Pious

“Secrets. Everyone has them. The light of day and truth reveal some secrets to be nagging obsessions or habits, while other secrets may be as incriminating as a literal decaying skeleton in one’s closet.”

My name is Kenn Bivins. And if you'd like to try something NEW and exciting, my first novel Pious is for you. But be warned – it's explosive – a perilous package that, if opened, seems innocuous at first. An assuring caress is, without warning, followed by a concussive punch.Carpious Mightson is an esteemed and respected man in his community who is confronted with a desperate secret about his past when a registered sex-offender moves into his neighborhood.
Pious promises to be an addictive tale that is full of twists and turns, with a cinematic telling. It’s currently available at Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com and PiousBook.com. Get ready to be drawn in, intrigued and then left smoldering with introspection long after the final chapter has been read.
Hey, nice to be connected. My husband is also an advertising guy; and it lurks somewhere in my past, too. New to this; but promise to catch up with recommendations and reviews.
Hi, Kenn...thanks for the invite into your circle of friends...CONGRATS on your book...and best of luck to you with any/all future writings...looking forward to sharing chats, reviews and any/all recommendations...have a blessed weekend...and Happy Reading & Writing :-)
I look forward to reading with you all.
