2013 New Year's Blog Hop
Wow, 2013 is here and I still can't believe it! Time goes by so fast when you're having fun, doesn't it? Just like when you're ready an awesome book. ; )
Well, even though time is whizzing by us like the speed of light, there are so many things I'm thankful for. My family, health, and many accomplishments I've made in the publishing industry and outside of it. I'm very happy, and when I set a certain goal, I work like a crazy lady achieving that goal. Usually people say they have a New Year's resolution. Nahh. I don't believe in those. New Year's Resolutions usually fade like dust in the wind, you know? The key is to set certain goals for yourself and reach them. Great example is I'm determined to submit four short stories and send one self published story off to my editor this week. I've submitted one story to a publisher two days ago and I received the contracts a few hours ago. I'm waiting to hear back from another publisher and I've been writing like crazy to wrap up a WIP and ship it off to my editor.
Those are all my writing goals. I have a freelance cover design business and I'm a cover artist for two publishers now. I need to send a mock up to a client and send final copies of a mystery cover off to one of my publishers. Oh yeah, and one publisher has asked me to consider creating a logo for her. Yes, 2013 is definitely lifting off and there's so much more for me to accomplish.
Okay, that's enough about me. I'm giving away a free copy of Ghosts of Lassiter Towers. If you're a lover of ghosts stories with an erotic touch and a little suspense, then you'll love this book.
Blurb:
Thrust into financial hardship after a bad investment, Annette and Anthony Bruzzetti are forced to live with his mother, Miriam, until they pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Fed up with Lady Barracuda’s nitpicking, Annette is finally triumphant in talking hubby to moving across the wrong side of the tracks to Lassiter Towers… a place harboring it's own deadly secrets.
After spending just a few nights in their home, Annette draws the attention of a ghost, and she soon learns the mysterious secret that dwells in the hole in the wall down in the boiler room.
Available on Amazon and All Romance Ebooks, Barnes & Noble.
