TOUCHED WITH SIGHT Summary Up!!!

I just posted the Summary to my up-and-coming book, Touched with Sight!

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Catherine Pierce is a black beast, a shape-shifter that has no settled form because of the magic-infused witch blood that runs through her veins. This anomaly brought her to the attention of the ruthless Council that governs her kind. Unfortunately, their corrupt delegate has taken a vested interest in Catherine.

Crown Prince Phineas Riordan is a powerful witch who has mastered three of the four elements. The one thing he can't master is his sexual deviancy, which, if discovered, means his life and his kingdom are forfeit. Because witches and shape-shifters are not allowed to fraternize. Ever. But that won't stop him from using the disappearance of Catherine's childhood friend--and romantic rival--to his advantage.

Meanwhile, the Slayer threat is growing stronger. Catherine and Phineas are on the brink of uncovering the secret organization forming within the bowels of the school...but they're being watched, as well. A war is brewing, and it promises to be an apocalyptic nightmare even worse than the Great War that happened between their kind 200 years ago.

Catherine has seen how the world ends in her dreams: it will be not by fire, or by ice, but by shadow. For she is...touched with sight.

What do you guys think? I write my own blurbs, which means I have to compete with all those awesome paid-blurb-writers! Hopefully not too cheesy? ^_^;

ALL SHALL BE REVEALED! MUAHAHAHAHA--HA *cough*

/my evil plan is coming to fruition


message 9: by Inge (new)

Inge Yeah I noticed that too - WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE WITH DAVID

I just laughed because when I read your blurb, I was like "Who the fuck is Phineas?" and now Preethi wrote Finn and I totally didn't make the connection.

I love the name Phineas. But yeah, Finn = Phineas.

AND OH YOU WOULD LIKE IT IF I TOLD YOU WOULDN'T YOU?

>:D


message 11: by Inge (new)

Inge Yeah I remember now, but I couldn't for the life of me remember Phineas in the first book. I lent my one brain cell to my co-blogger 'cause she's got a big law exam coming up.

I love the name Finn. I told my friend to name his new kitten Finn and he did, because he loves Adventure Time. So now I know a kitten named Finn. SUCCESS!

I WOULD, ACTUALLY.

I MUST KEEP MY AUTHORLY SEKRITS THO.

Aww, a kitty named Finn! How cute! <3

If I have a kitty, I want an orange one so I can name her Marmalade. If it's a calico, her name will be Patches. And if it's a tabby, her name will be Ziggy. I HAVE THIS ALL PLANNED OUT OKAY. I just need to make it big at this writing thing so I can get my own place, because my mom's allergic.

I think he's introduced as Phineas in the beginning but then after that I refer to him as Finn. :D


message 13: by Inge (new)

Inge BUT I WANNA D:

Publish it on July 18th as a birthday present!

Don't worry, I have my cat names planned out too. I want a Mushu (the dragon from Mulan) and a Cosmo (from Fairly Odd Parents).

I'll see what I can do! If I finish it before July 18, though, I'll probably publish it early. Best part about being an indie author is you can be all, "FUCK THIS SHIT! I'MMA PUBLISH TODAY EVEN THO IT'S TWO MONTHS EARLIER THAN I INITIALLY SAID! TROLOLOLOL."

Aww, Mushu! That's a great name for a kitty!


message 16: by Inge (new)

Inge Hey, no one's complaining if you post it two months earlier :D

I'm still shooting for July, tho. I want to edit and make sure it doesn't suck. :D

*grabby hands*

P.s. if you ever get stuck with your blurb writing, I'd be happy to help. Years of fanfic has made me love writing blurbs."


Aww, you make me so happy, Wart! I'm glad you're enjoying it--especially since you're doing such a fantastic job as a beta. <3

I was a bit lazy yesterday--trying to catch up on Netgalley ARCs--but I plan on starting chapter ten today. This part of the story is difficult because I have like five different versions of the story and I'm trying to weave them all together. =_=
