Wow it has been over a year since I last posted in this blog. Well to update on what's been happening in my life. I finally moved to Florida. Saint Petersburg to be exact. I love it here. I recovered from some bad things so I am a lot better. I haven't written anything for such a long time but I am now getting back in the game. I just got done re-editing some older material that I have written that I would like to submit, editing another, and working on two more. Sometimes it gets a little crazy with all these novels in the works but after not looking at some for several years, it makes it easier when editing them. I can see what I wanted to write but wasn't able too. I don't have my internet back up yet which isn't fun but I can still write and still submit my stories and that's all that matters.

Sales on Amazon

Well, I've sold another book so that's exciting. I also went on twitter and talked with an agent on there. She was talking about how hard it is to get people to where my book was and how it's hard to find ebooks using certain sites like Amazon. I told her it was but that's why I link to my book directly. People can cut out all the hassle and get straight to it. I know it's going to take time for my book to catch on but I'm still excited about selling two so far. I can't wait to see what happens over the next few months as I use facebook, twitter, and word of mouth to get the news out there that I wrote another book.

Writing News and Break Throughs

So, I can now say I'm a published author on Kindle. I recently sold my first copy and hope there's more to come. I must admit I had never heard of Kindle until a few months back. Yes, I'm that outdated!
I also started a page for the book and for my writing news on facebook. I'm trying to get as much publicity for the book and for me as possible. It's going to be fun to watch where my book goes. I have high hopes for it.
On the writing front, I'm writing something new! It's another historical novel set in New York City slums during the late 1800's. This idea has been forming for a couple of years now. I'd been wanting to write an historical novel with a Irish female main character for a long time but the idea eluded me.  I wanted a tough chick. A girl who brawled with her fist.  The idea just hit me of a sudden and I had to start it. I got almost 3000 words in already and I look forward to getting into the really fast paced and exciting points. It's going to have a lot of action and as I get closer to the first major scene, my heart starts to pound. Now that I'm a stay at home mom, I can devote so much more time to writing and I've pretty much turned it into a full time job.

My book Forbidden Love Affair

So recently I put my book, Forbidden Love Affair on Kindle to get it out there. I really love this story and know that others will to but it has to get out there so people can read it. I'm still writing and plan on keep trying to land an agent. Now that I'm done with school, I'm taking on writing full time so keep your eyes open. One day you will see my name in books on shelves. I will link to where you can buy it soon.

The bad writing news

I've put off writing for the longest time. I have quite a few in the works but I have no time to write at all! I've been working my butt off, trying to finish up my last two semesters without failing, doing all the things that come with being a mommy, and trying to find me time. I however recently started writing again. Working on something new and something old. After I graduate in October I plan on devoting all my time to writing. I want to some day be able to stay at home and just write. I'll post updates with the new stories as they happen. Wish me luck!

New Novel Update

I finally got to 5291 words on my work in progress. It's very slowly coming along. Slower than I would like it but I want to take my time and have this story go the way I want it. For some reason, every time I start a story, by the ending it's something way different. I wanted the story to go one way and then I changed it without knowing it. That's hard editing work. I don't have a lot of time between working and school to work on it much. I got one year left in school left but I'm ready to get this writing show on the road.

What I want to be when I grow up take 1 million

Every time I see something on tv, I want to become it. I saw a flight attendant movie and wanted to do that. I see all these famous people and I want to act or get into music. The latest is roller derby. I can't tell if this is me having another bipolar moment but I really want to get a league started around my town. It's not completely off the wall since I've skated since I was about seven and was even on the speed team. I'm pretty good and I only stopped because I got pregnant. This all came about after watching the 2006 show Rollergirls. (Yes, I'm late to the show). I also want to do something with music but I'm not sure. There is just so much I want to do, I can't make up my mind!
