Author and Reader Events, It Feels Like Home, JUMPER, WIP Wednesday

The Gibberish WIP

Hello, and welcome to my WIP update. It Feels Like Home is going up on Amazon for paperback purchases in the next few days, and it will be up for preorder for e-books until the 4th. It comes out on the 5th of July. You can get it right now if you are an ARC reader through BookSprout or my YA & TEEN ARC Team.

My current project is JUMPER. I’m 13 chapters and 19000 words in. The first few chapters are letters, so there are many chapters at the start. That said, JUMPER is a deep and dark story. I already have TW for sexual torture, sexual sadism, SA, child SA, reference to miscarriage, PTSD by both a primary and side character, and the threat of forced breeding.

So yeah, this is a light, feel-good book you will want to share with the whole family!

The Don’t Know How Doors Work WIP

I’m so close to being done with It Feels Like Home I can taste blood, sweat, and tears–mainly sweat and tears, but still, the book is nearly done.

Right now, the beta readers are pouring through it and finding all the weak parts that need bolstering and the witty pieces that I win at. I have had to up my deadline to meet the formatter’s availability. So, the day the betas finish, Bri and I need to tandem our comments and wrap it up because it needs to be off to Author Tree early the following day.

So what sort of errors do we find in my final pass? Well Bri found this where I closed the door and let myself in… I fail the door mechanics boss.

Cover Reveal, It Feels Like Home, Teaser Tuesday, Writing

It’s a Teaser Tuesday Cover Reveal

Okay, not a total cover reveal for It Feels Like Home. I suck. I’m a brain trust and sent the cover to Xpresso to set up tours, so they had it, and Xpresso posted it with the sign-up. I should wait to do big things when writing on a deadline so I can do them correctly. I can barely get up these days. Exhaustion is a real thing. Exhaustion is the thing of the day.

So here is the cover and blurb!
