Hanger Time!

Welcome to the second part of the Hookers and Hangers blogfest, hosted by the gorgeous girls at Falling For Fiction!





Today, it's all about hangers, those last lines of a chapter that leave everyone wanting to read more! My hangers are - again - coming from the second book in the Game On series. I'm only posting three today because my other hangers need a bit of work! Let me know what you think!

Hanger One: Girls were so not the reason I’d wanted a vacation but since meeting Isabelle, I’d changed my mind.

Hanger Two:  That was certainly something I’d had a lot of practice in.      

Hanger Three:  "I’m not that kind of girl, and you know it. But maybe, just this once, I could make an exception!"

Follow the link at the top of the page to check out the rest of the entries! 

P.S I am way behind on replying to blog comments this week, please forgive me! I have a lot going on in the real world at the moment, and with work and Game On stuff, everything is a bit of a mess! However, if everything goes well, I should be back with some news on Friday! :D

    So it's from a boy POV? Very interesting! I can't wait to read more. These are great. It gets me imagining what has happened before these hangers. Number three seems like he's won Isabelle over!

    Hanger #3 is my favourite. I like your story and wish you the best of luck. Thanks for checking out my hangers and calling my story epic.

    I loved #1, actually. But #2 and #3 both kept me reading the make believe story that was not in front of my eyes that I can't wait to buy so I can really read it!

    Well, don't blame me for running my sentences together and getting all excited to read Game On!

    I wished I had heard about the blog tour sooner. I would have signed up in a hurry!

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

First Fight/First Kiss Blogfest

Yay, it's blogfest time! Many thanks to Danielle and Jackie for hosting! Here are the details: Share your 1 st FIGHT and 1 st KISS scenes in your MS’s or WIP’s. Crack open your current project or dive back into an old one. We want to feel what your characters feel. From the sting of their first fist-to-the-face to the tingling taste of their first kiss. Today is First Fight day, and I wanted to bring you a small excerpt from my NaNo novel which centres around Jesse Shaw, one of the characters from Game On. It's a bit rough, and a bit vague - mainly because I wrote it quickly, Jesse's voice still needs work, and this fight in full would be packed with spoilers, but hopefully it gives enough info to make sense!   Just to clear up a small thing - Georgia is Isabelle's twin sister. :)   ** “Izzy,” I said. “You know the right thing to do.” Isabelle looked down at me with those big brown eyes, and my insides twisted with guilt. Right away, I realised

IWSG: Am I doing it right? And does anyone care?

Happy IWSG Day! This genius idea created by Alex J. Cavanaugh is a place for all of us insecure writers to gather together to talk about our worries, and cheer each other on. Check out the full list of participants here ! Think right now about your favourite writers. How do you feel when you know they have a new book being released? It's usually something like, "HURRY UP, I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE!" right? And also, think about when one of your super talented blog buddies announces they've got a book coming out soon. That is even more exciting because it's someone you know, someone you may have seen struggling to reach their goal of publication. Someone you've seen go through the rough times, and have finally made it to where they want to be. I can tell you that when Jolene Perry, or Nyrae Dawn announce a book release - I bounce up and down like a crazy person! These two awesome ladies are writers I absolutely adore for their ability to write so natural
