Progress Report
So, tomorrow marks the last day of the Kiya: Hope of the Pharaoh blog tour. I must say this month has been absolutely nuts. It's been a giant juggling act, and on top of everything my husband and I have been taking turns getting sick. Thankfully, our two year old hasn't picked anything up (touch wood!)
But now, Kiya has been out a month. I feel like things will settle into a groove for it, and I've done all I can to get the ball rolling. I guess I'll just have to sit back and wait.
I just finished proofing book 2 and sent it in to be placed in my editor's queue. I've also sent the final book in to my Acquisitions Editor for reviewing. Book 2 will be coming out Oct 25th if you missed that little detail :-)
Branded is all submitted now too and is lined up for a November release. No specific date yet, but it's on its way. November is a crazy month for me on a normal year with my birthday the day after Halloween, then my Dad's a few days later, then my father-in-law's, then my daughter's, then thanksgiving. Phew! I better be super organized this year!
Also, after some great advice from an editor, I am planning on self-publishing the Cadence books. These won't come out until after the Kiya trilogy is complete, but I've decided to self pub because I've realized why they keep getting rejected. This editor pointed out to me that with my MC going from 25 to 14 and slowly aging up, it's almost impossible to market as it's not YA or NA. So there you have it. I'm hoping to release Deceptive Cadence in July 2014.
So now I'm reading. Yes, reading. It's been so long since I just read something I'm really excited about it. I have a few NetGalley books, plus a nice collection of books I won, so hopefully you'll be seeing some reviews here soon.
