GOODREADS PROFILE UPDATE
I have made sure that all books are properly marked to include: UNPUBLISHED, NOT PUBLISHING, ADULT 18+, YA 15+, CHILDREN/FAMILY 7+, and AUDIO ONLY.
I want to make sure since there is no real way to organize or delete books for readers to find.
If you have any questions let me know.

Book Changes
You might notice in the descriptions of some of my books: NO LONGER AVAILABLE, NO LONGER BEING PUBLISHED, OR AUDIO ONLY. These are the books I either took off the market or scrapped writing due to the new phase in my writing.
ON HOLD means it's not totally canned but could be awhile, and anything tagged with 2017 means 2017 or 2018
I will be adding my family friendly fantasy series shortly to be added to your TBR. I am awaiting an email from Goodreads about a different account for that series, since my books are 18+ I do not want to chance someone looking for the family series and stumbling onto adult stuff when they shouldn't.
I know of course that is still possible and I am trying to be as transparent as possible with readers and parents.

Hitting Back Hard
1/18/2016
The last couple of years, this year especially has opened my eyes. After lots of hard hitting reviews I realized I wasn't really providing my readers with all I wanted to provide them with.
I have loyal readers and I have found several new readers with each release. It wasn't enough because I knew something was missing. More then anything I want readers to feel. I want readers to be emotionally involved in my stories and some of the hardest hitting reviews showed me I wasn't doing that to the fullest.
The Wind Trilogy I hope is a statement to my readers that I care about you and your opinions. If I have ever disappointed you I am terribly sorry. I want you to know that everything has changed for me. Not just writing in first person instead of third but also my whole editing process in hopes there are fewer mistakes I am actually hoping there are no mistakes but I am realistic to know that humans are prone to errors escaping them.
I say this to any reader that might have been disappointed in a book of mine please give me a chance to correct it. I am confident I can. I am always open to honest critique I want to be better for the readers that has always been most important me. I also want to stay true to me as an artist and I believe I finally have found the right balance between them.
Happy 2016! Here's to what I hope will be a GREAT YEAR!
Love Always,
Amanda Kay

I'm Back!
So I'm back on goodreads and I have a few updates.
1. I am working on getting my book list cleaned up so everything is in order the way it should be.
2. I have unpublished Faith and Trust, & Finding Salem. Both will be available again but not till later.
3. I have put some book on hold, but in their place I promise some other great ones.
4. This is for you all. I know a lot of readers use this as a way to keep track of their books as well as their favorite authors. I want to be involved in all that I can so that my readers continue to know what is going on.
Love you all
Amanda Kay
