#SixSunday LUMINOSITY Sneak Peek

Here’s my six (well, five) sentences for six sentence Sunday:

The Dreamcatchers show up in the shadows, and from what I have been told, all they need to do is touch a person, and their mind shatters. They are gone. I once saw a picture of one of the unfortunate souls who were Caught. Their eyes turned white, mouth open…gone. Like a oyster shell without any meat inside.

Hope you enjoyed it! :)

Revealing Book Two’s Title!

I owe everyone a RT update, I know. And boy, was RT really something…you have no idea.

But, until then, I wanted to share book two in the Raven Chronicle’s title. Drum roll please…

 

EVANESCENCE!

 

Yay! Yayayay! How do you like it? I am loving it!

RT Almost Here!

Look what came in today! My postcards! Aren’t they awesome? I’m going to be giving them out at RT, so if you want some, you can visit my promo table, or come seek me out, and I’ll be happy to give some to you! I also have lovely bookmarks by www.earthlycharms.com which are also quite beautiful! I’m so excited about RT, and barring any family emergency, I’ll be there ready to meet all of you! :D

 

I’ve Been Tagged: Sneak Peek at My WIP

I’ve been tagged in this silly game of sevens! If I tag you, you have to go to the 7th page of your current WIP, go to the 7th paragraph, and copy and paste the next 7 sentences. My sentences are from LUMINOSITY’s sequel, and thankfully, it doesn’t have any spoilers!

 
        “But, Your Highness, she is one of them.” Avery regards me with that same, untrusting glare.
        “She is mine.” Echo snaps.
        “Yours?” I question in return.
        Echo blushes and adds shyly, “My guest, I mean.”
        I watch him curiously for a little while, but relent with a nod, choosing not to press his statement any further.

In all of its unedited bliss. I hope you enjoyed it!

I tag: Laura Kaye, Stephanie Draven, Christi Barth, Lea Nolan…and I can’t think of anyone else who hasn’t already been tagged.

Some Pictures

My book swag FINALLY arrived. I’m pretty happy with it, except the post cards, which didn’t come out as I designed them. That, and the delivery sucked, since they brought it to my house when I wasn’t there, then took it back to the post office and never told me. I had to reschedule a delivery TWICE. But, it’s here! Here’s a peek:

Also, I bought some primroses  the other day at the grocery store in honor of The Hunger Games. The primroses were so cute, nestled in their little leaves with their little sunshiney selves (I wrote all of that in a goochie-goo baby voice, by the way), I couldn’t resist.

Lauren DeStefano

She has been climbing up my list of authors that I truly respect. Maybe it’s due to the fact that I see myself in her. We’re nearly the same age, we’re chasing the same dreams — dreams that she’s managed to reach before I have. Her blog is filled with wonderful, truthful and insightful writing, my favorite of which is the entry about body image and how you don’t have to be perfect to be successful. Isn’t that the truth?

Today has been quite a day for me. In fact, this whole week has been a roller coaster ride. It’s always reassuring to see someone who has “made it,” — someone like me. It doesn’t seem so impossible, then. Maybe, in a year, I’ll be where Lauren is with books that are just as good as Wither and Fever. I’ll look back on this post and remember what people drove me to be a better writer and a better person.

This is me being a fan girl.

If Lauren can do it, I can do it too.

 

Thank you!

LUMINOSITY Cover Reveal!

My name is Beatrice. When I was born, I was blessed with the Sight. I was immediately removed from my parents and enrolled in the Institution. At the age of twelve, I had my first true vision, earning my raven’s wings. And when I turned seventeen, one of my visions came true. Things haven’t been the same since.

The Institution depends on me to keep the City safe from our enemy, the Dreamcatchers, but I’m finding it harder to do while keeping a secret from everyone, including my best friend Gabe. It is a secret that could put us all in danger. A secret that could kill me and everyone close to me.

But the enemy has been coming to me in my dreams, and I think I’m falling in love with him. He says they’re coming. He says they’re angry. And I think I’ve already helped them win.
