Game On Blog Tour Day 8 - Post Olympics Crash

Good morning! :D

I am supposed to be feeling refreshed after a weekend of relaxation but ... not so much. Anyone else got an Olympics hangover today? I stayed up entirely too late watching the closing ceremony - and now I'm a little bit sleepy, and wondering what to watch on TV now all the sports are over!

No time to be too sleepy though, there are three stops on the blog tour today!

Emily R. King - one of the sweetest bloggers in blogland  - will be holding a Game On giveaway, so make sure you stop by and check it out!

I visit writer of Provex City, Michael Pierce, to talk about turning Game On into a series - and give you a small glimpse into some of my plans for future books.

And the lovely Aubrie Dionne will be giving a Game On shoutout!


Thanks to you all for having me!

Now, I'm off to work on a brand new story idea that came to me in a dream! Not sure if I can really do that much with it, but it's nagging away at my brain, so I have to give it a try!

Hope you all have a lovely day!

    I'm completely lost regarding TV viewing - although #2 son is watching Lord of the Rings, so I won't have to decide for about 9 hours!

    Love the spontaneous ideas - hope it works out!

    WOOT! I can't believe I've missed 8 days of this. I'm a terrible bloggy friend. I blame my brain-deadness from my offline life ;)

    Congratulations on completing the first week of your tour, and good lick with the second! :D

    Not missing the Olympics, actually looking forwards to seven episodes of EastEnders! ;)

    Already visited one of those stops! Didn't stay up to watch all of the ceremony, but caught most of it.

    I stayed up waaaaaayyy too late (even let the wee one stay up too). Now, I have to read a bunch of really boring academic papers... ::wishes for olympics to still be on::

    Dreams are where all of my fiction ideas came from.

    I enjoyed the ending ceremony. England did a great job with the Olympics.

    Ooh! YAY!
    I'm not feeling relaxed after the weekend either, although it has less to do with the Olympics and more to do with a sick husband. Guys are such wimps when they're sick. It's horrible!

    Can't wait to check out what everyone has in store for your tour today! :)

    I am missing the olympics! Didn't meant to watch the entire thing last night but it kept getting weirder and weirder and I couldn't look away!

    I hope you get some rest.

    *group hugs* I know this is not the ideal way to reply to comments, but I am drowning in real life stuff at the moment, and battling sleep deprivation! Thanks all for your comments - love ya!

It's here! WIP: The Movie!

I can't even tell you have excited I have been about this! It's early, so I have only got round to a few entries so far, but I am having a blast reading them all! Thanks to all who have participated, and of course, to my awesome co-host, Rachel ! It's time for me to introduce you to the characters from my - as yet untitled - WIP. When I first started this blog, my WIP was different, so this might confuse some of you (sorry about that!). This is Leah Walker, my MC. Technically, she is a little young, but she looks perfect! Leah is a physiotherapist for an American soccer team, but she is actually an English girl with a, let's say, colourful past. Radleigh McCoy is the ridiculously good-looking, not to mention exceptionally arrogant soccer player who challenges Leah in every way possible.  This is Freya Phillips. Freya is Leah's best friend and roommate. She works as a coach for the soccer team, and she is both very kind, and totally wild! Th...

IWSG: Books Sales

IWSG time! I'd like to start by thanking Alex J. Cavanaugh for this fab bloghop, and today in particular, it is just the motivation I need to get me blogging again! Today, I'm talking book sales. Now, I don't really know if there is any kind of "average" amount of books sales when you're an indie author. I don't know what is considered a good amount of book sales per month, or whether I am doing better or worse than others. What I do know, is that I am happy with the amount of books I've sold. I self-published because I want people to read my work - and people are reading it - yay! My concern is - what if the sales stop? I know after a time, everyone's book sales will slow down, but I have this fear that I'll check my sales every couple of weeks to find that nobody cares about reading my books anymore.The dreaded 0 will show on my Kindle sales, and I will plummet into a pit of despair. It hasn't happened yet, but Game On has onl...

Camp NaNo Update, and details

To begin with, I want to say thanks again to Emily for allowing me onto her blog as a blogging mentor! Being interviewed is always fun, and Emily is awesome! So, to Camp NaNo! Four days in and I'm still on track! Well, I will be when I finish today's writing. :D I mentioned a while ago that I was planning to battle boy POV, and I'm doing my best to get through it. However, it is hard, so I decided to turn my NaNo story into dual POV so it will be 50% less difficult! I'm not against cheating to get the work done. :p Just to give you a quick recap on what I'm doing for NaNo: In Game On, I have a young soccer player named Jesse Shaw, and he proved quite popular during the A-Z challenge. So, I decided he needed his own spin-off story! It's set at the end of the soccer season, when Jesse and his best friend go to London. I don't have a proper synopsis yet, but this is my guideline for now Soccer sensation Jesse Shaw literally has the world at his fee...
