You know that feeling when you get off a roller coaster(assuming you're not amazingly terrified of heights or of sudden death drops)? That feeling of nausea, elation and pride in yourself for not throwing up on the dude in front of you? Then, there's that feeling of accomplishment; you looked death in the eye and laughed... all the way down that twenty-foot drop!

Well, that is the feeling I think most authors get when their dream of putting a book out into the world.

I've already had the immense pleasure of seeing my name in print with my story in the Clever Fiction Anthology: Clever Beginnings, and as much as I love the other authors and their stories, holding a book with my name stamped on the front... wow!

TOUCHING SMOKE (Touch Series Book One) is all but good to go! Thanks to TreasureLine Publishing, it's only a matter of time before TOUCHING SMOKE will hit Amazon. (More on dates soon!). But I am just so excited! I have to share and tell everyone that it's finally happening!

*deep breath*

But keep an eye out for it. I'll be giving away copies, both ebook and paperback as well as other little treats that shall remain a surprise!!


TOUCHING SMOKE:

“He will never stop!”

For sixteen-year-old FALLON BRAEDEN, being haunted was just another day in the life of a gypsy, like being on the run had always been a closely guarded secret, a secret her mother would have happily taken to the grave…

If Isaiah hadn’t caught up with them.

But when Fallon is stalked by fire throwing demons, nearly killed by rebel mutants and finds a soul mate she can never have, even her normally unusual life is thrown into a tangled web of lies, love and betrayal.

As worlds collide, secrets unfold and blood is spilt, Fallon comes to several unsettling revelations: she’s not entirely human, her creator wants her dead, and the only one who can save her is the one person she has to keep at arm’s length or die.

It took about 6hrs, but I created my very first video! Look for giveaways and reviews of TOUCHING SMOKE this summer! Add it to your reading list now!

I am so honored and excited to present everyone with the first novel of the TOUCHING SERIES... TOUCHING SMOKE.

Sept 06, 2011 Fallon and Isaiah walked into my life. Nearly a year later, they are leaving the security of my hard drive to venture into the world. It's a daunting sensation. I still can't believe it when I log into Amazon and see my baby just sitting there for the world to see. (If you're wondering, YES, I am getting all choked up and emotional. lol) but I am so very excited. The support I've been getting has been exhilarating! It is incredible how many are willing to share the link, tweet about the book and just spread the love. I turn into an emotional wreck when I see that and count my blessings for having so many amazing friends willing to do that for me. There are just not enough thank yous in the world to make up for their constant support.
 
But after months of shamelessly advertising Touching Smoke, shoving it into the hands of anyone who would look twice at it and going through several changes, editing and lots of tears and blood shed, it is finally here!! It is finally official!
 
Isn't it beautiful? I could just sit and stroke it all day. I really could. It's just truly so amazing.
 
So, thank you EVERYONE who took the time to help share my links, my quotes, my book! Thank you for spreading the word and passing it all along to your friends. Everything you've done has meant the world and a half to me. I am truly blessed to have you in my life. Thank you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! <3
 
 
 
Cherish you all,
