When you love a book…
I’m not exactly sure what to credit for the decision, after
years invested in my craft, to put my work out there. (My novella, THE DISAPPEARING
KEY releases early this October.)
Do I give props to Sarah Bareilles prompting me to be brave
or is an enormous show of gratitude necessary for the excellent material I
recently discovered in DARING GREATLY? Curious…the timing of when I spotted
this book on the library shelf and thought to myself, Now this looks like a good read.
Mostly, it comes down to that niggling in my gut that my
words are ready to be read—my stories are ready to be felt. I’ve received
affirmation of this on many levels but it was essential I waited until I was
ready.
And I am now.
I love this novella.
And this October it’s time to set it free and into your
hands. As we wait for my novels to have their day in the sun, it’s my hope that
you’ll thoroughly enjoy this taste of my writing. This is both
a vulnerable and exhilarating process.
Can’t wait to discover what you think!
Ever do something
that was both exhilarating and terrifying at the same time?
*Attention book
clubbers—THE DISAPPEARING KEY was written with book clubs in mind. Not sure
when you make your selections for the year, but I’d love for you to throw my
novella on your list. It’s shorter than a full-length novel, but the meat is
there. I’ll also be posting book club discussion questions on my blog soon
after the release.
**I’d love to guest post on your blog or answer interview
questions for you. Shoot me a message & I’ll be in touch!
