Clearly I'm Bad at Keeping Up With This


I know, I know.  I said I'd try to keep up this blog.  I failed.  But I have been living in the moments with m family and friends, something I think is much more important.  My kids are growing quickly and I know I'll be sorry if I don't take the moments to enjoy them. 

I've also done very little writing this spring.  I'm wrapping up my novella for The Happy Endings Series called A Soldier's Dawning which will feature hottie Justin Keeton on the cover.  The cover reveal will be late August and the book releases Sept. 28th.  I love this book so much that this novella might just end up being a prequel to a full length novel.  Haven't completely decided what to do with it, but I feel like there'll be more.  This book has been the hardest for me to write to date since it comes from the male POV and he's a soldier with a lot of heartache.  It's been a challenge to capture the masculinity while also keeping the emotion high.  I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed writing it. 

Another project I've been working on is my teen book/series.  I've been playing with how to finish Amber's story and considered re-doing book 1 to include a more concise conclusion so the series can be a variety of teen stories from different character's POV's.  We'll see.  And I'll keep you posted. 

Of course, I want to finish the Lexi Series with the last book, but a few other characters for new stories have taken hold of my brain and I'm working on a few of those. 

Now you see why I feel like nothing is getting done.  Lots of things in lots of different directions.  I plan to take the next few weeks to make a better plan for getting things done.  The school year starts soon for us and I find that I can work better with a busier, more concise schedule. 

I will work on a post about the last few book signings I attended and what is in store for the next few months.  I will say, I've enjoyed my travels and meeting all kinds of new people. 

On a side note: If you'd like a signed book, I have a few things left from my last signing that I need to get rid of before I re-order for my next signing.  I have them listed in a post on my Author Page on Facebook. 

Thanks for understanding and reading!! <3 br="">
