5 STARS for Arianna’s Choice #CR4U

I think I will always have a hard time reading reviews.  Even though my books have been quite well received and reviewed, reading reviews still makes me so nervous.  I have such an emotional connection to my characters that I hope they will be met with the same love and grace that I attempted to write them with.  Today, my first book received a wonderful review.  I just had to share it with everyone.  Click here for the Amazon review.  If you haven’t read Immortal Reborn – Arianna’s Choice yet, I hope you will find this review a motivator to give it a try.

Once again, a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has read, rated, reviewed or just commented verbally your support.  I hope you will keep reading because I can’t stop writing.

AUTHORSdB.com

adb_badgeIf you are familiar with one of my favorite sites imdb.com you know that it has all kinds of details about movies and tv shows.  Well, there is also an authorsdb.com that has all kinds of information about authors.  It’s almost like a one-stop shop for author details.  My listing has recently been approved, so click the image above and check it out.   You may find something else you like there as you browse all the other authors listings available.

I’m back at work now, so the editing is not going as fast as it did during the summer, but I’m making good progress with Book 4 so stay tuned for details.  Thanks again to everyone who has been so supportive  for your positive reviews and feedback.  If you haven’t written a review or left a rating, please consider doing so.  I would appreciate it VERY MUCH.

Clean Indie Reads Keeps Growing #CR4U

I recently posted about Clean Indie Reads.  The group and page is growing and ‘we’ now have a logo. CIR   This is such a supportive group.  I just wanted to highlight them again.  Click the logo to visit the website.  Please tell your friends about CIR and my books.  The direct link to my CIR page is:  http://cleanindiereads.com/immortal-reborn-trilogy/ What are people saying about CIR? “Oh my gosh! Best idea ever! My friends and I are always looking for books to read that we don’t have to skip whole chapters or pages or just put down altogether.” “I love the ethos of your site. I hope your site goes from strength to strength, it certainly deserves to.” “I love this idea. It’s just what we “squeeky” clean writers and readers alike need. A place where you know exactly what you’re getting and you won’t get a shock 10 “pages into your newest purchase.”

Clean Indie Reads #CR4U

I’ve been welcomed into a most exciting group on facebook.  Clean Indie Reads is a facebook group devoted to “helping you find stories free of offensive or explicit content”.  The group is very supportive and I’m happy to say that I’ve seen some uptick in interest in my books since joining them.  If you follow me on twitter, you may notice the #CR4U hashtag in some of my tweets as well as some retweets.  This tag is used to identify posts by members of this group about their books from this site.  Check it out.

Summer Update

Hello Nephilim fans!  Here’s an update of my recent activities.  I have finished writing Book 7 and had begun editing Book 4 when I couldn’t hold back the urge to begin writing Book 8.  Six chapters written, and still editing Book 4.  I hope to have it ready for you sometime this fall.

I also attended a meeting of Augusta area writers at The Book Tavern on Broad Street (where you can buy my books in print) last week.  It was a nice chance to talk to fellow writers and get some ideas and encouragement from each other.  I have posted a few pictures from the event on my MEDIA page.

My Crazy Hubby

I just had to share this picture.  If you don’t know Hugh Howey, he is a MAJOR successful indie author.  His sci-fi hit WOOL and it’s prequel SHIFT are very popular.  Will is a big fan and he kept after me until he got me to read these two books while I was in the middle of writing my 6th book (it was hard reading someone elses work while I wrote my own).  Well, I really enjoyed these riveting stories and would highly recommend them and we are both anxiously awaiting the next book, DUST.  Anyway, Will saw a picture Hugh posted on facebook holding Bella Andre’s From This Moment On. There were several people who had done photo-chops so Will decided to add his own.  So funny!

Happy 4th

I wish everyone a Happy 4th of July.  Today I have the bittersweet news that I have finished the initial write of Book 7 in my Children of Angels series.  I’m happy to have completed the book, but now, I must return to begin editing Book 4.  As I’ve posted in the past, I know editing is important and required to give you, my readers, the best possible experience…but I do so miss the creativity of writing while I am editing.  Lots of new characters and new experiences coming in the next books.  Can’t wait to share them with you.

Amazon marks book1 down again

I’m really not sure what the folks over at Amazon are thinking/doing, but they have marked my first book in paperback down another 2 dollars. If you haven’t gotten a print copy, and want one, now is a great time!

My First Amazon UK Review

I have been a little apprehensive about how my books would go over in the UK, since my main character and her family is from there and a good portion of the story is based there.  Well, I recently got my first review from a reader in the UK and it was indeed positive!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Immortal-Reborn-Ariannas-Choice-1/product-reviews/1480215686  

Not only that, but it was from a fellow author there!!  As I’ve been completely consumed in writing my series I haven’t had a chance to read any of her books yet, but I feel the least I can do is share her information.  Some of you might find something of interest.
