My Next Big Thing

Welcome to this blog hop.

What is a blog hop? Basically, it’s a way that readers can discover new authors, because with bookstores closing and publishers not promoting new authors as much, we need to find a way to introduce readers to authors they may not see in their local bookstore.

Here you have the chance to find many new authors. Here you’ll find information about me and the book I currently have out.  Also see links below to other authors you might like to check out.

I’d like to thank fellow author Mimi Barbour for tagging me to participate. Click the link below to find out about her latest book Vegas Rift

In this particular hop, I and my fellow authors, in their respective blogs, have answered 10 questions where you get to learn about our current work in progress as well as some insights into our process, from characters and inspirations to plotting and cover decisions. I hope you enjoy it!

Please feel free to comment and share your thoughts and questions. 

Here is my Next Big Thing!

1: What is the title of your book..  BE STILL MY LOVER'S HEART

2: Where did the idea come from for the book?

I originally wrote it as a short story for a contest for another publisher. My husband liked it and I sent it to another and just lengthened it to a full novel.

3: What genre does your book come under?

It falls under the Paranormal Romance genre but has Science Fiction and Futuristic elements as well. There are two lines at The Wild Rose Press and mine fits under the Black Rose Line.

4: Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition? Erin Sanders as Shea, Gage Golightly as Cami, Ian Somerhalder as Tempest, Jackson Rathbone as Rivera and Landon Liboiron as Aveal. Good guys anyway.

5: What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?

One woman with nothing to lose joins a Universal Military to fight whether or not it causes her death until she meets the one man, an alien, who claims she is his bondmate and have been meant to be together from time preordained even though they have to fight a madman in order to keep all they hold dear, including their future.

6: Is your book self-published, published by an independent publisher, or represented by    

an agency? THE WILD ROSE PRESS an independent publisher.

7: How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?  6Weeks

8: What other books would you compare this story to within your genre? I'm not quite sure as there are many different elements to this story.

9: Who or what inspired you to write this book?  I love to be challenged to write different types of stories and I hadn't written a futuristic space one at that point and decided to try it.

10: What else about your book might pique the reader’s interest? It is the first book in a five book series. Also, the term "Vatamp" or "Atrisvazhamp" means "Memory Makers." This allows each member the unique ability to draw on the memories of his or her relatives who have passed on before them to solve unusual problems.

You can find my book at Amazon.com   Barnes&Noble.com & most online booksellers.  

Below you will find authors who will be joining me by blog, next Wednesday. Do be sure to bookmark and add them to your calendars for updates on WIPs and New Releases! Happy Writing and Reading!
