Witchy Ebook Deals!!!

Hi everyone! Well, first of all, I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to all my loyal fans who commented and sent such sweet messages to me. It means the world to me that I can come to you and tell you what’s going on and you will understand and cheer me on. You have no idea how much it has helped. I’ve been able to rest a couple of days and tonight will go back to the story with fresh eyes for the final read-through and the last edits. I am not ready to announce a date yet, but I promise it...

Delay in Demons Forever

I know this news is going to be very disappointing for many of my fans. I know that many of you have been waiting since January for this final book in the Peachville High Demons series and were very much looking forward to tomorrow’s release. Unfortunately, I have to delay the release.


I avoided posting this until today, because I honestly thought maybe I could still get it out on time. I have been working non-stop around the clock to finish the final edits and rewrites, but today as I read th...

Demons Forever in One Week!!

Hi everyone!! I’m sorry I haven’t been around much, but I’ve been working so incredibly hard on Demons Forever. I want every little detail to be perfect. Plus, I’m not one of these writers who has the book completed and ready a month or two ahead of time and sends it out to editors, etc. I am a last-minute kind of gal, LOL.


The truth is, I work very well under pressure. It can be incredibly stressful, but it’s also very fun. :) With each release in this series, I’ve ended up rewriting entire sec...

100,000 Books Sold!!!!!!!!!!

I literally could not put enough exclamation marks at the end of that title!! I am in shock. As of this week, I have officially sold 100,000 ebooks.


When I first made the decision to self-publish back in late August 2010, I never dreamed I would ever sell that many books. I was honestly scared to death that no one would like my books and that I would have nothing but one-star reviews, ha! Instead of self-publishing the book I’d just submitted to Kristin Nelson (and gotten rejected), I decided...

Myrtle Beach Write-A-Palooza!



This afternoon, I am heading to Myrtle Beach with my little family! It will be our first trip away with the baby, and I’m both nervous and excited. The reasons for our last minute get-away were three-fold.



I want to celebrate signing my graphic novel contract with Sea Lion Books!!
I am going to hit 100,000 all-time sales any day now. It would be fun to do that at the beach.
Most importantly, the beach always inspires me to write. With the deadline for DEMONS FOREVER coming up soon, I wanted to h...

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 b...

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...

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 Iever 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....
