I'm so excited to be a stop on the blog tour for my friend (and amazing talent) SC Langgle! Her debut novel, ALICE IN EVERVILLE, is such a fun read that I know you're all gonna enjoy. 

SC was kind enough to guest post on my blog today, telling you all about the mythical inspiration and the role of art in her novel. Enjoy, and be sure to check out the giveaway at the end.

Which Came First?: A Dose of Inspiration



Ah yes, it's that age-old question we've all asked/heard/pondered: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? 

It's also the question that, no matter one's stance, cannot honestly be answered. For none of us were around when the chicken came to be. (or the egg, depending on which side of the fence you fall.)

But perhaps if we change a couple of the words, an answer may be within reach. Hmm...how about if we replace "chicken" with "author" and "egg" with "book?" Let's see...

BLOOD AWAKENING Giveaway...and then some!

So if you happened to catch my Three Line Thursday post from yesterday, you probably noticed that the second book in the Blood Prophecy Trilogy, BLOOD AWAKENING, comes out in just two months. Two months! Seriously, I cannot believe that not only has another year gone by, but that I've also managed to complete a second novel. Becoming published is truly something I always hoped for but never thought I would achieve. And I couldn't have done it without the amazing readers and writers and blogge...
