It's been me, me, me, me, Alexis Alexis Alexis Alexis blah blah blah. I mean, I won't stop that, but it's important that I recognize them and do it in a way that's more meaningful than just words.
So, from now on, I'm gonna try and think lil bit less about myself.
Every week (not sure what day yet) I'm going to do something called a Naughty Angel Spotlight. Where I highlight a new author that maybe doesn't have a giant newsletter with 18,000 people to swap with. But they wrote a good book that's to market that you guys will enjoy. I'll highlight it.
Freebies from up and coming authors. I'll feature them through the spotlight as well.
I'll also share all this on my wall too. And in time I'll make a separate page and separate mailing list if ppl like it. But for now, this is my tiny way of giving back.
Because here is the way I see it.
You guys read books waaaaay faster than I can write them. You reading more authors doesn't harm me. An author doesn't have to jealously guard their readers because it takes them 2 weeks to write a book and it takes readers like 4 hours. By authors promoting each other and sharing each other, all it does is allow people with good stories to reach more readers, making more people happy.
I guess I just wanna do something that will sort of give back to the community that's given me my dream job, you know?
Anyways, I'll be planning this the next week or so. Today though, my dear dear friend Jess Bentley has released a box set that has all my favorite books. And FREEBIE from Vivian Phoenix! After the jump!
Me and Cheryl
So I forgot to tell you I have a new release coming up!
That's right!
I've been busy finalizing the book this week and I'm writing the final chapters today before it goes to ARC.
Anyways, tonight, I'll be sending out an excerpt AND doing a new giveaway because just the 12 Inches giveaway which announces on April 15 is great but it's only $100. I wanna do another giveaway to give you guys more chances to win because you guys are so awesome! So I plan to do more giveaways that's for sure.
Anyways, I have to go back to writing but I'll have the excerpt later on today and the new super secret giveaway ready too.
If I don't go back to writing Cheryl will totally be mad at me. She's like sooo patient with me. Because this is literally what it's like when I write.
I'll message her on Facebook.And the transcript will look like this.
Me: Hey! What u doing?
Cheryl: I'm working on the things you asked me to do. What are you doing?
Me: I'm writing!
Cheryl: Good...
Me: But I'm sorta bored...
Cheryl: LMAO
Me: What are you gonna do after this?
Cheryl: I have a lot of work to do.
Me: O ya, can you also do (insert something I just thought of)
Cheryl: Ok...let me put it on the list
Me: Thanks! But I NEEED to write! I'm soooo behind!
Cheryl: Well, go write...
Me: You're distracting me!
