Electrokinetic has been unleashed!

This book.This book has been four years, six rewrites, three plot overhauls, two editors, five readers and many, many hours with these characters living and growing inside my brain.The idea for a female fighter imprisoned on a war station orbiting a fictional earth-like planet came prepackaged. Through all the changes this book has been through Helia has always remained in tact. Her circumstances and motivations changed but the base of who she is and what she can do has not.Like every female character I have ever written, Helia is hard to like. She's naive, stubborn, and defensive, which is a frustrating combination. Loyalty is very important to her and throughout the book is tested to it's breaking point.The soundtrack to this book is all Coheed and Cambria. They are my favourite musicians and their sci fi concept albums are what inspired this book to be a science fiction and not a fantasy (which is where I feel most at home).These two songs played on repeat for a good portion of the last rewrite (the version published):I've put more of my heart and soul into this book than any other I've written. It's been hard to let it go. It was impossible to ignore. It's fused itself to me and demanded I finish it which makes it even harder to put it out into the world.I've been trying to do more things that scare me, and there's nothing more terrifying than opening the door to my heart and letting strangers inside.Electrokineticis on sale until midnight tonight for $1.99!Her touch is electric.
