My Own Love Story

I've read some other posts about how two lovebirds met, so I thought I'd join in. It's not as exciting as some stories might be, but it's obviously one of my favorites.
It was Monday, April 28, 2008, and I had just returned to a still-too-cold-for-flip-flops Rexburg, Idaho. It was the first Monday of the first week of the summer semester, and you know what that means. Ward Family Home Evening Get-To-Know-You Social!*Cue confetti, streamers, and balloon release.*
All kidding aside, I always did...

I hate group work.

Elementary school was great. I was privileged to go to a performing arts school that introduced me to a whole new world of culture, a world I try to live in still today.
Junior high? Not even going there.
High school rocked! I made great friends and received one of the best educations in the country. Excuse me while I brag on my high school. Just click here. Check out #32.

I'm tired of waiting. So. Ahem. Despite the vast amount of nerves bubbling inside me, I think I'm ready to release The Acquisition to the world.
It will be on sale sometime VERY soon.VERY soon = sometime in the next three days.

And Eleece? Giirrlllll. My life is SO much better because you're in it...

It's been a couple of weeks since I last posted. There's been a slight change of plans.
I'm not publishing an eBook anytime soon.
I have my reasons, and even though I'm not ready to share right now, I promise when the time is right, I will. All I can say is that there may be bigger and better things in store! My story will make its way to the public one day, but not today. Or tomorrow. Or the day after that. 
I've tweaked the first few pages a little. The story is the same, but I've d...

Preview!

I announced a couple of days ago that I wrote a book.
Shocker, right?
Well, I'm here to give a little preview.
The entire book will be available for purchase this week as an ebook. I'm still working out the details, but I will gladly post them as soon as I do.
The Acquisition tells the story of Emma Bauer, a young girl living in a dystopia America, who will soon be classified as either Endorsed or Sterile. The Endorsed are those pretty enough, smart enough, and strong enough to lead a privi...

BIG Announcement!

This isn't just the start of a new blog. It's the start of something much greater.
I hope.
I would like to introduce to you my baby. She's only about a year old, but she's ready to make her debut to the world.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you The Acquisition.

More details to come, but until then, feel free to jump up and down in anticipation.
