If anybody has been monitoring my reading, you'll find that it has been taking me forever to finish a book.

That's because I'm ADDICTED to writing. Additionally, when I can't find a certain book I'm looking for, I end up putting one together.

That being said, I wanted to announce the book deals I've done recently.

I signed with several publishing companies in the past few months. I didn't want to announce anything until the contracts were all signed. Here are the book deals with release dates coming out this summer, fall, and spring with the titles, genre, and publishers.

FYI, if you find yourself wanting to be a Beta Reader for any of these series, let me know in the comments below. Note: I like my betas to be snippy little a-holes that are critical about stories. If you can't be mean to me, then don't volunteer. lol.

I'm happy to introduce you to a pretty awesome-looking book today. I look forward to reading it myself! From what I hear, A Surefire Way, by J.T. Bock, delivers the following:

• a kick-butt, rookie agent with daddy issues who doesn't follow the rules
• a quick-tempered boss annoyed with his rookie agent for not following the rules
• a flawed, yet incredibly attractive, hero afraid of bugs
• a...

Along The Space Between release tour, we’re sharing behind-the-scenes tidbits about the book, the characters and more. Things that fall “between the lines” of the story’s prose. So here’s Micah, one of the main characters, sharing a few (sort of) unknown facts about herself.



“A completely unique story with a paranormal twist . . . the perfect blend of romance and mystery with a phenomenal plot that will keep you guessing.”  ~ Jessica, Confessions of a Bookaholic

ECHO BLOG TOUR

hosted by
Xpresso Book Tours &
Good Choice Reading Blog Tours
Today is the kick-off for the virtual tour featuring my novel Echo, a young adult science fiction adventure. Click on the above image to see the Goodreads page.

Over the next two weeks, Echo will be featured on 50-70 different blogs. Each tour stop will feature a guest blog post written by me, review (not written by me), interview, excerpt, teaser, character highlight, or character interview. It should be a lot of fun...

 
I'm not even going to lie to you. Writing the third book was fun!! It's probably my favorite one out of the series so far, because the characters' powers have evolved and. . .I'm continuing to grow as a writer. 

Writing has become a second skin for me now, and walking through the Santeria Habitat is like visiting home.

Check out the cover, blurb, and enter the giveaway to win a $30 Amazon Gift Card!
