I mentioned in when I did the 777 Writing Challenge that I would tell you more about my work-in-editing soon. And I believe this is a wonderful time to do that.
But, first, some updates on Paralyzed Dreams!
I want to thank everyone who has reviewed the book! Every review helps, and the more reviews, the more the word gets out. All of you are amazing! 😀 If you’ve written a review in one place (Goodreads, Amazon, your blog, etc.), it’s super easy to put it on other sites, too! Special thanks to everyone who has done that, too. (That means you, writefury and Kathy @ Kathy’s Cottage Books!) If you haven’t reviewed, it only takes a minute to write down a few thoughts, and a couple more to be detailed. Even just rating on Amazon or Goodreads helps. 🙂
And Paralyzed Dreams is now listed on the Homeschooled Authors blog. Go check it out, along with the other homeschooled authors!
If you haven’t already, tell your friends about the book, too. And if you’re interested in an author interview, let me know! I’d definitely be interested.
Oh, and if you have an Instagram, Pintrest, or other social media account… Here are some quotes from the book you can share!
Now that we’ve got that over with, let’s get on to even more fun stuff.
I finished the first book in my new series! It’s in the editing stage now (which I’m procrastinating, of course). I may have mentioned it before, but now it’s time to officially announce the title of the series. Now. Right here.
Drumroll, please.
The world of Lerali is at the brink of war, and its fate rests in the hands of five teenagers, the group called WISHE. Their task? To find a long-lost portal before it’s too late.
Sound interesting? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
If you’re interested in helping to promote my books and join my street team* (Got any cool street team name ideas? Share!), head on over to my contact page. I’d love to hear from you!
And don’t forget that the Super-Duper Fan Fiction Crossover Challenge (the Second) is open for submissions! The deadline is May 1st, which may seem far away, but it’s not… so get started now! (Tell me that it’s not far away the next time I’m moaning about Avengers: Age of Ultron…) I can’t wait to see you guys’ stories! Need ideas? Check here.
I believe that’s all, folks! Got any questions? Got ideas for street names? Like the quotes? Curious to learn more about anything? Comment below! I’d love to hear what you have to say!
*A street team is a group of devoted fans who help promote an authors’ work, through book reviews, social media, and just telling others about the book. In exchange they get exclusive content, bonus fun, and, sometimes, ARCs. Worth it? I’d say so.
I hope to get your book on Kindle soon, and I’ll definitely write a review when I read it. =)

Oh, I see. Wilson, Iris, Slade, Haven and Ellery. Cool. 🙂
I was looking back through the interviews. I can see a few similarities between Slade and Cobalt…. Though Slade is more coordinated. 😛

Yep, you got it! Haha, yep. I totally based Slade off of Tony Stark, but he’s definitely his own person now.

Yeah, I could see that…. That explains the cockyness. 😉 Cobalt has a lot less in that area than Slade. Probably because I started off Ironhide, who has some self-esteem issues. 😛

Ah, yes. Slade has self-esteem issues, but those won’t be discovered until later. 😉

Maybe for your picture you can just match a bible verse and picture. I’ve done that before. I had Rapunzel and Paul’s verse about long hair. And Vanellope in her car with the verse about running the race. 😉

That’s cool! I know some HTML, but I have no clue about other stuff. 😛
That’s so awesome! Maybe I’ll do that. *tries to think of Avengers Bible verse*

Maybe you could do Cap’s shield and one of those verses from Psalm 91 about shield and buckler.
