I realize it’s been awhile since I’ve blogged. Life has taken a lot of unexpected turns in the last few years. We built a house, adopted another Labrador, moved, been laid off, started a new job, survived my husband’s heart attack, depression, loss, and anxiety. I got my rights back from my publisher. I learned a lot about love and life and failure. And, while it’s been hard, it’s also deepened my love an connection to the written word that I can’t regret.
I’ll be honest, when I got the rights back to PRETTY DARK NOTHING and PRETTY DARK SACRIFICE, I intended to let those books go and to move on to new things. They carried so much emotional baggage and I wanted to forget they even existed. But the universe had other plans for me. Funny, the minute I decided to let go of all that hurt and shame and failure, a new opportunity in front of me. An author friend of mine contacted me about re-releasing the books with Snowy Wings Publishing. At first I wasn’t sure, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that Quinn and Aaron’s story deserved to live on.
So, here I am again. Pretty Dark Nothing is being re-released under a new title and with a new cover. WHEN DARKNESS WHISPERS will release on September 24th. Inside you’ll find some new content to go along with the new, beautiful cover. Thank you to all who have supported me though this crazy journey. And thank you to all new readers to come. I hope you enjoy the second edition of Quinn and Aaron’s story.
I am so pleased you persevered. I have just navigated my own rough road. I had such hope after I completed my MFA, but surgery and a long rehab got in the way. Now, I’m updating my blog and website, revising my query, and offering up my first in a series based on the Maya. I’ve finished two and am researching and structuring my third. So, best of luck to both of us. We’ve got this!
