I’M GETTING PUBLISHED!

I got the news last night that I can officially tell everyone: I’m getting a novella published!!

Psychedelic Horror Press are aiming for a July 26th release date for ‘Bonespin Slipspace.’

First of all, thanks to everyone who has supported me thus far. I never would’ve gotten this far without you: I mean it. While first I thought I would skyrocket to fame within a week, lately I’d begun to think agents/publishers only said no. Thanks for keeping me writing: it has to be one of the best gifts you can give a stranger.

I am also a bit terrified. But what would really help me go ahead with this with confidence is if you could let me know if you’d be interested in reading it. There will be an advanced review copy (ARC) available in the coming months, and reviews always, ALWAYS help me secure
new readers, so please get in touch with me or spread the word in any way you can, and I’ll do the same!

Two more things, just for me, below:

1.       I really think all my books are of equal quality, so I can now provide you, reader, with the confidence to read anything of mine knowing that it kinda
sorta has a stamp of approval by proxy (I’m stretching it, yes: I’m excited.)

2.       Now (finally, finally!) when I get asked daily how my Norwegian is, I can say I was too busy working towards becoming a published author. Tbh I shoulda had the confidence to talk about how important writing was to me before, but, well, I didn’t! #AdulthoodEqualsBeOkayAtTwoSkills

Thanks again!! Chat soon!

Fantastic! I'll put you down for one :) And I have no idea what it'll look like- a graphic designer buddy has signed on to do illustrations! :D

Thanks so much! Can't wait to have it ready for you! I really appreciate your support and I'm glad you could share the joy!! :)

Chris Harrison That's great. I can incorporate it into the questions. Later on in July we can do a repeat blog post to catch up on the novella and give it another bit of exposure.

Sounds like an awesome idea! I'm excited to see what you come up with and looking forward to our back-and-forth musings exchange :D :D

Thanks for getting in touch, Kiara, and I'm glad I could pass on the excitement! One of the best things this has done already is remind me how warm and encouraging the Goodreads community can be, so thank you for being a part of it!

I'll put your name down for an ARC and I'll be in touch in about a month's time or so!
