I know I said I'd do better at the blogging thing, but I really am trying.  Promise!

Today is Love Least Expected's release day, and to say that I'm overwhelmed with the outpouring of support is an understatement.  I don't have a lot of support in my real life aside from my husband, his family, and my best friend, so it's been amazing to be showered with so many kind words -- and it's only noon!

The short story I published, The Trouble With Never, has been in the making for years.  Years. To have a piece of it (and me) finally out there, is such a mixed bag of emotions.  I suppose anyone who's already published could tell me that this is normal... but it's so scary, yet absolutely exhilarating to have it out there in the world. I truly hope that people love Summer and Caleb as much as I do.

I'm so grateful to my friend Kishan Paul for pushing me to step up and do this. I've talked about writing and being a published author and all that for so long, that it was about time to actually do vs talk.  To have people sending me messages and posting on my wall/page that they've bought a book I'm published in, or that it was waiting for them on their Kindle is just mind-boggling.  I don't think I've quite wrapped my brain around it!

It's taken me literally all day to even write this blog (which is why it might appear to skip around -- sorry -- busy down around here)!

Long story short, and I'll probably come  edit this later to make more sense -- thank you to every single person that took a chance on some unknown authors, to every blogger that shared our anthology -- THANK YOU.

USA Today Recommended Must-See Book Trailer!

So far for me, this has been a wild ride.  I've talked for years and year (and years and years...) about how I was going to be an author.  Blah, blah, blah.  It wasn't until I was asked to be a part of an anthology by an incredibly group of women that I've had the privilege of watching come into their own and become amazing authors, that I was finally brave enough to do something about it.  

Writing with two young kids isn't easy. I've screwed up so many times with deadlines, and sending out information and fumbled all over the place as I learned the ropes of being an indie author. Marketing, promotions, who to contact, what to say, the actually process of writing, getting my first round of edits (and thinking I was going to die), and so on...  

There's a hilarious meme I'd love to share about this, but I can't find it. Should I come across it, I'll come back and add it later.  ;) 

All of this has been amazing and I wouldn't trade it for the world.  

Today, we made the USA Today Recommended Must-See Book Trailer list. USA Today. Y'all.  I don't know whether to fan-girl, scream, cry, pop a bottle of champagne, or what.  This. Is. Incredible.

If you haven't seen our trailer, you should watch it.  Now. It's fabulous. I don't care to admit how many times I've watched it.  Haha! 

Enjoy!
