Hi All!
Well, August came and went–rather flew. Fall is my favorite time of year, so I’m mostly happy it’s September. I love the colors of fall, the mums, the crisp air, and, of course, pumpkin spice everything!
In book news, I have a lot that I’m juggling. First, I have written about 60K words toward my first draft of novel three. While I was hoping to get a full draft done before the end of summer, I remind myself to be forgiving when I don’t meet the goals I’ve established. At least, I’ve made considerable progress, and I’m well into the groove of these characters and this story.
For All That is Sacred, I have seen a draft of my cover and work has begun to put together a book trailer (yes, like a movie trailer, but for a book instead). I am brimming with excitement to see the finished products and to share them with all of you. I also filled out an application (which I didn’t realize I’d have to do such a thing) for an audio reader. With each step, I’m learning more about this process and trying to savor every moment of it.
I scheduled my first live author event at our very own indie bookstore, ReRead Books & More in Cheshire, CT on September 17th from 11 AM to 4 PM. It will be their First Annual Writers’ Festival featuring authors of many genres from across CT to speak, read, sign their books… I hope if you are in the area, you’ll stop by!
