Hi, there!!!  Welcome!  I’m sure you’re here to win things, enter contests, and whatnot,  but while you’re visiting, why don’t you check out this fun little quote:

 

Five months…FIVE MONTHS…FIVE MONTHS!! Can you believe it? This journey started more than four years ago and I’ll finally reach my destination — hopefully the first of many — in five short months.  THE STORYSPINNER is a real book! It’s going to be a book that people can actually buy at like, bookstores and online and (fingers crossed) airports. It’s amazing, and surreal, and so incredibly humbling.  I can’t believe I’m sooooo close to becoming  a real, live published author! If you’re like me and hate waiting, there is one place right now where you may be able to win a copy of my book. On Goodreads! That’s right, there’s a Goodreads giveaway starting now and ending Dec. 5. So, go forth and enter!! I’d also love it if you added THE STORYSPINNER to your TBR list.  Then if you don’t win (sad face) then at least you’ll remember that’s it’s coming soon! Good luck!

You know how you write, revise, edit, rewrite, revise, edit, revise, edit, rewrite, edit, edit, and revise a story? Yeah.  I’ve been doing that since like March.  And honestly, sometimes you get a wee bit tired of working the same story over and over again. 

BUT, BUT, BUT then you find out your book is on Goodreads and you do a dance that looks a bit like this:

“My book is on Goodreads!  I can’t believe it.  It’s real! Someone’s going to read my book!” 

Then you realize what you just said.

“OH CRAP.  People who I don’t know and who may not like me or my characters are going to read my book.  And they might hate it.” 

Suddenly, you’re very motivated to rewrite, revise, and edit ten thousand more times. Which is exactly what I’m doing right now because if you click here you’ll see that my book is on Goodreads!  AHHHHHH!!!
