Oops.
So it's been an entire month and I haven't posted anything. Oops! :)
I promise that I'm still alive and well. I've just been crazy busy lately. Let me tell you what I've been doing!
~~In my trek we've gone from Winter Quarters to Fort Kearney, Chimney Rock, Fort Laramie, Independence Rock and Martin's Cove.
~~I've had mywonderful and tech-savvy husband update my website and there's now a brand new page. Many of you. Okay, like all of you, live too far away to buy books directly from me to have them signed. And so there were several that didn't have the option of having a signed copy of any of my books. Well, that is no more! There is now, on the special sales page shopping cart buttons to purchase any of my available books which will be signed and sent to you! Nifty, huh? And just in time for the holidays too! To make things a little easier, orders over $30 will receive free shipping. So go check it out and cross off some of those holiday boxes. :)
~~My sweetheart and I wrote a little Christmas children's book together. I had many wonderful friends submit photos of their own children for me to use as reference in creating the illustrations. This book, How Many Snowflakes Until Christmas?, will come available within the next week. I'm currently just waiting to receive the proof copy to ensure that everything looks as I want it to. As soon as it is available I will let you know! If you want to catch a preview of the cover, check out my Facebook page to see the cover reveal.
~~I've been working on "Prince Charming's Search". It's been very slow going and I apologize. I know there are many of you anxiously waiting to see what will happen with Jacobi and Clarissa. And as disappointing as it may seem, I can safely say that it should be ready right around the New Year. I'm out of my bout of writer's block and I think the little break working on my Christmas book was just what I needed. I'll keep you posted on what's happening with this story too!
~~NaNoWriMo is swiftly approaching and I've been trying to prepare for that too! I'm planning on splitting my time between a new story idea and finishing "Prince Charming's Search". My priority will be finishing that book, so my NaNo novel may end up fizzling. But I'd like to see what I can do with both. The NaNo novel will be a humorous look into what it's like being a writer. It will go through the anguish of writer's block, the frenzy of inspiration, the hounding of the inner editor and the crooning of the muse. (So my muse tends to sound like Nat King Cole, don't judge!) :) This is really meant to just be a fun and really big free write. I'll need your help. I need some writing prompts that I can use each day. NaNoWriMo lasts the month of November and since I do not write on Sundays, that gives you 26 days to think of fun prompts for. Keep in mind that my writing is generally geared towards a younger audience and I would appreciate family friendly prompts. :) Other than that little caution, run wild with it!
Well, I think that's a pretty good recap of the past month. Thanks for reading and thanks for being patient with me. You're the best readers a girl could ask for! :)
Hugs!
