If we were having coffee, you would no doubt notice my boundless enthusiasm. I’m buzzing with energy, and it has nothing to do with the caffiene coursing through my veins! Today, Gina Briganti and I published Changing Worlds, which means you can finally meet Maddy. Changing Worlds includes Saunders’ Choice by Gina, and my prequel to the Fractured Series, The Contract. If we were having coffee I would show you the cover…
As a special treat I wrote a four part story featuring Maddy, which coincides with the release and the forthcoming fantasy tour. If we were having coffee I would read the first part to you, because I love reading aloud. Unless, like my sister, you prefer to read it yourself, and then I’d tell you to click here. Over at my author site I’m encouraging people to leave links to their works in progress, current projects or recent releases. It’s an exciting day and I want to share it.
If we were having coffee I would ask about your week. We would laugh at our adventures and sit for a while content in each other’s company. After a time, we would head over to Diana’s place and catch up with everyone else. I’d apologise in advance because my week was consumed with the book release and I don’t have much more to talk about, so I fear you will soon tire of hearing me babble excitedly about the book! You would of course forgive me; what are friends for if not to share in our triumphs and our tribulations.
If we were having coffee, I would thank you for stopping by.
