First Review and Nerves

I gave a couple of people ARC of LARK and today I read my first review! This review made my day! It's a very exciting thing to know that there are people out there who love your story.

It's a scary thing letting people read something so personal. I've spent the last year working on LARK and I love it of course, if I didn't I wouldn't have written it, but now that I'm putting it out there for the world to see (read), it makes me feel extremely vulnerable.  I'm a huge bundle of nerves thes...

Lark: Sneak Peek # 2

I woke up this morning and checked Facebook over breakfast and guess what?! 200 "likes"!
It's time for another sneak peek!
This scene is actually part of the dream I had that inspired me to write LARK.
 I'm so absorbed in my own thoughts that I take the next corner too quickly and lose control of my car. Suddenly, we are swerving wildly and sliding all over the steep hill. I hear screaming and realize a moment later that the frantic cries are my own. I struggle with the wheel, desperately...

Lark: Sneak Peek #1

100 "Likes" on my facebook author page! Wahoo!!! Thank you so very much!
To show my appreciation, here is one of my absolute favorite scenes from Lark:

              When I come to, I realize that I am now laying down on the lavish bed, under a thick downy comforter that smells like honeysuckle and cinnamon. Which is a very weird, but oddly pleasant, combination. As I lay there for a moment, inhaling the sweet and spicy scent...

Lark: Cover Reveal

*Squeal*! I have been dying to share my beautiful cover! And today's the day!





The last time she checked, Mia Carrington was pretty sure that she was a normal girl with a completely ordinary life.She goes to high school, has a crush on the gorgeous and mysterious new boy in town, and has strange dreams that she can’t help but feel are real somehow.

Okay, so maybe she’s not all that normal after all. A freak accident changes Mia’s life forever when she is thrown into another world and left to d...

Let's start at the very beginning

Because, after all, it's a very good place to start!

Here I am, on the verge of publishing my first ever novel and I am FrEaKiNg OuT (just a little bit)!

So I decided I better get busy promoting my little book-baby.

It's kind of crazy to think that last February I was woken up from a vivid dream, the kind of dream that makes you think "that would be a good book". I have dreams like this all the time but I usually just roll over and go back to sleep. But not that night. I laid in bed and I c...
