One month ago exactly I released Deep Blue Eternity. I've never been so nervous in my life. More nervous than my first book! This book is a little different than most romances so I've spent a good long while (months and months) teetering between
freaking out ....
The problem with doing something different is that if people are expecting one thing and get another, it might not matter how good it is, they could still feel a bit let down. Thankfully most feedback has been amazing! And thankfully, I've had some good friends around to encourage me (My husband, Julie, Lisa, Karina, Faith, Shannon, Rachel, Reagan, Al and Dave etc.) and get me through it. Amazing readers who have sent me the most incredible messages upon reading Tom and Livvy's story and of course, there are almost no words to describe what freely-given support from other friends and authors like Mia Sheridan , Brenna Aubrey and R.L. Griffin when they read DBE before I published did for me
And finally the friends and bloggers who read it and reviewed it supporting my release day. All of you helped me get through this scary time! Thank you! Special thanks to Whitney and Patricia of A Literary Perusal for featuring me for the whole week of release! I was lucky to receive discount spots on both BookBub and Free Kindle Deals and Tips today! So hopefully, this 'little book that could' will reach some new readers today and also over the next few days with Booksends and Bargain Booksy.
Thank you, again.
With Love and Gratitude,

A lot of things happened after you released your first book! Deep Blue Eternity was a huge success that's why you could have released something new. By the way, we can still plan for it because I want to congratulate your first. Everything you've exerted for the book was worth because your fans and the non-fans as well accepted the concept you had on your book. Maybe, you're indeed born to write that's why God is just putting you at the right place! You don't need to be surprised with that! 1/11/2019 05:52:20 am
