It’s time to celebrate the passing of another year, and I couldn’t be more excited to embrace 2012!
The past year has been one hell of a wild ride for me. 2011 was a year of great change, taking chances, fighting fear, and leaps of faith. I have become acquainted with some of the most amazing people who I now consider friends, though I have never met them in person. I’ve offered help to others where I could, and accepted it for myself when it was needed.
Most of all I have been honored and humbled by the people who have enjoyed my books.
What started off as a burning need to write down a strange love story (and a simple question: Should I self-publish? The answer: Eh, what could it hurt?) has grown into a series that could, and probably will, branch off in many directions.
Not too long ago I never would have imagined I’d have one book published, let alone two! (And in the same year!) Someone pointed this out to me the other day and I literally stopped in my tracks by my own astonishment—a holy shit moment, if you will—and I couldn’t stop the huge grin that overcame me.
Thanks to Those Who Are #FullOfAwesome
First, I would like to thank those of you who purchased my books. Double thanks if you took a moment to add a review, or even give a star rating. That’s the kind of thing that is invaluable to a writer.
I need to thank Rainy Kaye, aka Rainy of the Dark, my editor for Demon Slave—who could not know the perfectness of her timing, and just so happened to come to me exactly when I needed her.
I would also like to thank Candice Bundy @giggilles, who is a pleasure to chat with on twitter and is my #WineWhore buddy.
Another twitter friend, Miya Chanda @belle1509, who has given me great advice on my gnome infestation.
And last, but not least, Jeannie aka @leutopian who has been an amazing help.
So What Now?
Well, assuming that the world doesn’t come to an end…again, I will continue to write to the best of my ability and publish fanciful, crazy, and passionate love stores. What else would I do? 😉
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
