I'm back!

Ah, how I've missed you all!

I have spent the last week or so recharging after all the Game On organisation. I cannot believe how much it took out of me to finish edits, let alone set up the blog tour! But, I am not going to bang on about that because no doubt you are all tired of it already! :p I will just say that during this week, the full list of stops and what you can expect will go up on the blog tour page so you can have a look at what I have in store. 

The downside of taking time off is that I don't have a whole lot to talk about lol! But by the end of the week, I should be back in the writing groove and posting more regularly.

Before I go I want to wish good luck to everyone who is pitching in the YAtopia pitch contest today! Most especially to my best buddy Clare Dugmore. I will be cheering you all on! 

Also, the amazing Jolene Perry has released her 876th book of the year (:p), Spill Over. I just started reading it last night and already, I'm hooked! The exceptional standard of Jolene's work always astounds me, so make sure you check it out!

So, what's everyone been up to? Have I missed any exciting news?

    2. *hehe* Aww. <3 I'm not actually nervous now, but I was last night.

      I have so many samples on my tablet it's untrue. I just added one of Jolene's too ... heh, and people said the Kindle would decrease reading.

  32. I totally missed this post, and like three people have said that they agree with Kyra on the 876th book of the year, so I finally googled it to see where on earth that came from lol.
    Thanks!

IWSG: Performance anxiety

Welcome to the August edition of IWSG, hosted by the amazing Alex J.Cavanaugh ! So, as most of you know by now - because I haven't shut up about it LOL - my first novel, Game On, has been released. The blog tour officially starts next week (YAY!) but I find myself becoming increasingly nervous. A blog tour not only highlights my book, but me. What if people don't like me? What if my guest posts suck, and everyone thinks I'm boring? If I can't engage people in 300 words on a blog, they probably aren't going to pick up my book. And then there's the "what happens next" question. I plan to make Game On into a series, which feels a bit arrogant of me. I don't know how many people are going to like the first book, should I really be planning to keep the series going? So far, Game On has actually been incredibly well received. I've had great reviews, so maybe I shouldn't worry about people not liking it, but what if Book Two isn't as goo

If I Let You Go Cover Reveal & Bloghop Signup

I am SO freaking excited to share this with you!! Even though I only announced the cover reveal last week, it's felt like it's taken years to get to today! I would like to FINALLY reveal the cover for my first novella, If I Let You Go: Title: If I Let You Go (Novella) Category : New Adult (NA) Genre : Contemporary Romance Release Date : October 22 nd 2012 Synopsis: Madison Connor is about to lose it. Her job, that is.

With Tilly having a meltdown over the move, Madison and Dominic get into a fight that changes the entire nature of their relationship, causing Madison to ask herself a big question. Can she let him go? EEK! SO, whaddya think? :D Annnnd there's more! As I'm not doing a blog tour for this release, I still felt like I needed to

Dust It Off Bloghop!

Welcome to day one of the Dust It Off Bloghop, hosted by Theresa Paolo and Cortney Pearson ! This hop is all about the WIPs you wrote, and then shelved! Okay, so I am teaming up with Clare Dugmore for this one, because back in 2006 - yup, we've known each other THAT long lol! - we started to write a book together. Unfortunately, other commitments got in the way and we never finished it - but even so many years on - it's still something we remember fondly, so we're going to dust it off for you! The first day, May 3rd: We want you to post a 1-2 sentence pitch (Great way to practice pitches) about the shelved WIP. Here is the pitch Clare and I came up with: For best friends Caitlin and Tori, their first acting job out of Uni opens up a whole new world for them – unfortunately, it wasn’t the world they were expecting. When the strains of adult life and tangled relationships threaten to ruin their friendship, they are forced to take a look at what’s really importan
