Today I'm sharing more behind-the-scenes details on the thrilling *smirk* ride of taking characters from idea to bookshelf. Elysium is complete... so now what? I'll give you an inside look at the trials and triumphs of the writing process.
From the adrenaline rush of typing 'The End' to the careful process of self-editing, publishing a novel is no small feat. I explore how I navigated this labyrinth for Elysium. We'll also discuss the tools of the trade that I use to polish my work. I'll share my progress on the Goodreads challenge and spill some secrets on how to get your hands on advanced reader copies.
I am also sharing blueprints for my upcoming projects and goals, including the planning process for my next book and my targets for future releases and a peek into my future projects that extend all the way to 2025.
I also talked about Afterglow books, a new harlequin imprint. Check it out here.
