YOU CAN SEE IT HERE FIRST!

Every author can’t wait until they can reveal the cover of their forthcoming book. In the past, I have shared several of my friends covers: Linda Phillips’ new cover for CRAZY, Stacey Bartlett’s FREE SINGS THE SEA, and Vivian Elbee’s I WANT MY BOOK BACK to name just three.

NOW, IT’S MY TURN

But first, just in case you missed it, here is my announcement in Publisher’s Marketplace.

Over the last eighteen years I’ve learned a lot about taking a book from an idea to publication. I attended writing conferences and wrote drafts and more drafts. I received and integrated feedback from beta readers. I queried publishers and agents. Then, after signing with my publisher, Monarch Educational Press, there were more rounds of editing, getting the ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) ready for reviews, and participating in the creation of a book cover. Before my own publishing journey, I had no idea what it took to bring a book into the world.

NOW, I DO!

I’m thrilled to share the cover of my debut Young Adult/Upper Middle Grade novel, HALF-TRUTHS, with all of you–my faithful friends, supporters, and blog followers.

And if you’re in Charlotte, I hope you can join me and three other local authors on April 2 — National Reconcilation Day for a panel event sponsored by the Levine Museum of the New South.
