New website design up, being tweaked a bit
Hello readers. As you can see, the new website design is up and running. There are some tweaks to complete and things to add, but for the most part, she’s done! I hope you like it.
My ap0logies if you received a few posts by email that are old news. Apparently it’s one of those glitches we still need to correct. I’m sure by the middle of this coming week, all will be fine again.

I’m on a roll
Since I’m in the mood to share some mind blowing music with those who share my taste in music, allow me to present to you another most awesome video and melody that just takes me away to another place. CAUTION: if you fear clowns, watch with the lights ON.
STEREOPHONICS. SERIOUS BADASSES OF MUSIC.

This video is freaking me out! In a good way!
I heard this song on the radio yesterday on my way to the beach, and I thought for sure it was Sting. But no! It wasn’t! It was Gotye in a duet with Kimbra — I have no idea who this person Gotye is, but I will certainly spend way too much time finding out. The lyrics were amazing. They totally spoke to me in a way lyrics don’t often do. I know I am probably the last person on Earth who hasn’t heard of him, since my kids tell me his song was covered by two recent contestants in American Idol, but hey! That’s okay. I’m fine with being the last one to the party. I’m too busy writing books to stay current anyway.
AND, the best part is, if you were to imagine this guy in his late teens, he would almost have the Spike teeth that I speak about in War of the Fae – if only they were a little pointier in places (insert evil grin here). Ooof, stick a fork in me, baby, cuz I’m done.

New Design, coming soon-soon
I announced this before to get some feedback (thanks to those who contributed). The new website design is done and will be uploaded maybe Monday or Tuesday, I hope, I think. So if the site looks a little wonky for a few days, pardon my dust while we work out the kinks. I look forward to revealing the final design to you. I love it!

Book 4, First Draft, DONE!
Phew. I’m so glad to get this one done. Talk about stress. It sure took me for a ride. I have another couple days of editing on my own and then off to at least two more editors for their work. So excited!

March sales: You guys blow me away!
When I say “you guys” I mean my readers. You guys are amazing! I published my first book in January this year and sold less than 100 copies of it. February was about the same, but with two titles. Then came March…
And boy, did March come in like a lion! Hopefully, April and May and the rest of the summer will roll on by without going out like the proverbial lamb.
In March, I sold over 2,000 copies of my 5 titles. Woof. And so far this month, through April 14th, I’ve sold over 1,400 copies, so on track to do better than last month (fingers crossed, knock wood, rain dance, salt over the shoulder, etc.)
I just wanted to say, thank you, thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your reading, support, and sharing. Words cannot adequately express my gratitude.
xoxo Elle
