New twist on "Croaked"
In my last blog post I mentioned I received a couple of two star ratings on goodreads, What I didn't mention was I have two five star ratings on amazon. I just had a best selling author tell me she thought that "Croaked" was hysterical and that she laughed out loud while she read it. "Croaked" is becoming one interesting literary roller coaster ride for me. Happy Reading!
Off to a rough start "Croaked"
My book "Croaked is off to a rough start. I've had some two star ratings. Personally I've had some people tell me that they really liked the book, but I've also had some rough reviews by others. It was my first Comedy-Thriller. Hopefully I'll soon receive more ratings and reviews for "Croaked" which will help me to better see where I stand with this book. I'm almost finished with a romantic-comedy called "A Woman Named Bagoo." I'm really interested in seeing how this book will rate with adult readers. My children's books have been received well, but at this point it's up in the air as to how my adult books will be accepted by readers. Everything's good! Happy Reading! As a note "Croaked" is a short story of around 7,600 words. It can easily be read in an hour or less.

Romantic-Comedy "A Woman Named Bagoo" coming soon!
My romantic-comedy is very close to being finished. My last daft went by fast. I'll have the book to my editor in less than a month. I'm currently in the middle of finishing the front cover image for the book. I drew the image and now it's being colored in with colored pencils. It's always exciting for me when a book is this close to being finished. I hope my sense of humor resonates with my readers. I've never read or watched a romantic-comedy that is similar to the one I wrote. It's going to be interesting to read the reviews. You need thick skin in this business of writing. One thing is for sure, I had a blast creating the story. Happy Reading!

Three new books coming soon!
There has been some changes in my book world. I've decided to keep "A Woman Named Bagoo" as a novella. It should be coming out fairly soon. I'm now putting my efforts into a middle grade novel that's close to being finished. It's a real fun book and should have a strong appeal to the elementary age children. It currently has a 31,000 word count. The book is long enough for children to be pulled into the story and held there for awhile. I'm hoping to have three new books out next year, which includes the third Fritz Fombie book. Happy reading!

"A Woman Named Bagoo" Romantic Comedy
The title of my romantic-comedy is "A Woman Named Bagoo." I'm starting to pull the story together, but there's still a lot of work yet to be done. Writing a novel is daunting task. I'm looking forward to submitting it to Kindle Scout. There's something empowering about creating worlds that don't exist. I really hope readers will be pulled into this romantic-comedy. I was smitten by the first sentence. I can only hope my readers will feel the same way. Happy Reading! T. E. Antonino

Romantic-Comedy
I've been working hard to finish up a romantic comedy that I started almost a year ago. I've been working on multiple book projects, but I have now devoted myself completely to this romantic-comedy. Plans are to finish in the next two months, then onto to the editor. This will be my first full length adult novel. I plan on submitting the Romantic-Comedy to amazon scout, where readers will be able to read 10% of the book. If you like the book you can vote for it. After a month amazon takes a look at the book and the votes. If they think the book has potential they may offer me a publishing contract. So wish me luck! I'll keep you informed about the this book project. I'm also doing the art work on the front cover. Check out my adult Comedy-Thriller titled "Croaked" a short story - enjoy. Take care.

Two Romantic Comedies Coming Soon
I'm getting close to being done with a romantic-comedy. The book will be a short story. I'm having a blast writing it. It has to do with a princess and a commoner around the 16th century. I let my imagination run wild, but I always do that anyway. Even though love stories with royalty are common this one is totally originally. I didn't base it off of anything other than my imagination. Hopefully it will be on the market in two or three months. I'm also writing a separate romantic-comedy that will be novel length. That one will be on the market in about six months. Take care and happy reading!
