"Did they ever find out who did it?"
"No."
"Did your father have any enemies? Any...

Back to the Books #bloghop


Do you smell that? School is in the air, and you know what that means. A return of homework and pop quizzes. It's not all bad news though! Back to school also means back to the books. Not the textbooks, but the other books. Your reading lists, and those new favorites tucked away on shelves in the school library, waiting for you to pick them up.

To celebrate the return of reading and the release of  my debut YA novel, Fade, on September 7th from Curiosity Quills Press, I'm giving away tw...

Six Sentences of Fade #sixsunday

Happy Sunday!

Every Tuesday, my phone buzzes to remind me to sign up for Six Sentence Sunday. And every week, I read the alert, fully intending to hop over and sign up when I get to the computer. And I never seem to remember when I do get there. Oy. Gotta love having no memory. But I remembered this week!

Since Fade releases in eleven days (holy crap!), I thought I'd give you another few sentences from the novel. I hope you enjoy this little teaser. :)
