I May Live To Regret This...

Touching Bruce Springsteen. Do you wanna be in my gang?

I May Live To Regret This...

Maybe it's the sickness?

The fact that I am drugged up to the eye balls and I am blogging at 1.25am midweek should be a giant red flag to question my sanity.

In times like this when I have been given doctors orders to stay bed ridden for the week because I need to prevent my chest infection potentially morphing into pneumonia - Yeah not so great for a chronic asthmatic, still inspiration strikes in the least likely moments.

What am I blabbering on about?

Yep! Another light bulb moment, remember the last time I had one of those? The Boys of Summer became a three book series, which I might add was one of the best decisions I have made. So I am hoping that this next moment of 'Ah ha!' *snaps fingers* Will be just as satisfying.

I guess it's really all about how far I can push myself, how big a challenge I can set myself and above all how much I am willing to sacrifice? I had set myself a mini goal in my mind and the scary thing is when I take those goals from my mind and 'blog' about them it opens up a potential can of worms, I am opening up myself to pressure to achieve my pipe dreams. Announcing it makes it real, makes me accountable. WHAT AM I DOING???

So I will announce my thoughts but with a huge disclaimer (these concepts are so fresh and need to be unpacked and set out so I can go forth and make magic)

So why bother unleashing it at all C.J?

Well, because Gosh darn it! I AM EXCITED!!!!

I have been lying in bed for three days spending the first two watching mindless television, too immersed in my own misery to care about anything than the struggles to breath (literally) but as the fog lifted and the drugs set in, as did boredom I had a moment. An exciting moment when something manifests from and idea and quickly forms into a NEW PROJECT!!!

Life after the Summer Series!

Now lets look at the now, An Endless Summer is due for release July 17th, it is my intention (at BEST) to churn out book three by December/January - Yep dream goal!

Then I plan - May lightning strike me down. To release a new stand alone New Adult title, plus the beginning of a new trilogy. New world, new characters new settings. It will be smart, sassy, sexy and I am so very excited about it.

What I can tell you is that my impending 2014 New Adult Stand Alone release is titled 'Someone Like You.' A new adult romance set in Melbourne, Australia.

Now I don't want to get too ahead of myself but I guess I just wanted you to know that when I talk about sacrifice, about challenges, what I knew (in my head) is that I had a personal goal, a determination to work solidly for two years to finish my Summer Series Trilogy and start a new project. My aim was to publish five books by 2014's end. And this will be my ultimate drive. I will either look back on this blog post and go..."Hells year C.J you nailed it!" Or "Pfft what were you thinking?? Five books? FOOL!"

*Shrugs* Who knows? All I know is I have to try, I have to ride the waves of enthusiasm and and write while inspiration is at the forefront of my existence. The sacrifice will be not to break, but to write through solidly to achieve these releases. I am so very passionate about the direction I am headed. It's going to be a massive amount of work but I feel I'm ready and willing to go the distance.

Now I just have to break the news to my long suffering husband and poor neglected friends and family.

A mud map of things to come and of course you will all be kept in the loop as time comes for new cover reveals and synopsis releases...But trust me when I say, there is LOTS to look forward to.
