New Book Coming Soon!
So I plan to write book 3 of The Steam and Steel Chronicles during August (NaNoWriMo Summer Camp to be exact). But I have another book that was just about ready to go, in a different genre. I've decided to make a push to finish up some last-minute edits this week and release it ASAP. (I'm making an effort to finish projects this year, so anything I have that's within a couple weeks of being finished is getting fast-tracked.)
The book is Hold My Hand. It's women's fiction with a strong romantic storyline (I'm not calling it romance due to some very un-romance story elements), set in Virginia. I had the first chapter up here for quite some time, but took it down because it's not the most recent version.
I've already got a cover designed for HMH, thanks to some stock imagery courtesy of Fotolia (they offered me a free one-month subscription to try out their service, which I'd definitely recommend to anyone who creates their own book covers or creates covers for others. You can buy individual images or subscribe).
Here's the cover I whipped up one night while I was bored:
I'll announce here whenever it's available on Amazon, BN and Smashwords. I may put out a print copy of this one, too (it's a full-length novel, around 70,000 words, rather than a novella). I might run a contest surrounding the launch, so let me know if you have any ideas. Also, if you're a book blogger or have a high number of friends/followers on a site like Goodreads and you'd like a review copy, let me know!
