It's Release Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Release day!!!!!!! Yay!!!! I'm so excited!!!!

Today is the release day for my second full-length novel, Karma Kameleon! It's the sequel to my debut, A Bitch Named Karma. I'm so excited for the release of this book. Readers were so engaged with Lexi Marshall in the first and I just needed to tell the next phase of her life. More problems, more Karma, more Lexi! Readers also get more Rich, her sexy rockstar boyfriend, and get to see him mature and become a man. But that causes more problems for Lexi too! She's now caught between the two men in her life!

I'm partying ALL day on my Facebook Fan Page with, prizes, guests, games, giveaways and more!!Come stop by!!

Here's the blurb:

Karma is back, but this time she’s not completely to blame. 

After surviving a heart- wrenching tragedy, Lexi Marshall is determined to find happiness with her wacky, new-age family. Stumbling through her first few months of motherhood, she's achieved the perfect balance living with her son, the love of her life, and her best friend and his lover. But happily-ever-after all under the same roof doesn't last long. 

For one thing, Rich doesn’t exactly agree living with everyone is ideal. With their gay/straight double wedding fast approaching, he wants to find a place of their own instead of continuing to sponge off of Marcus and Kevin. But Lexi isn’t ready to give up her easy lifestyle...or the never-ending wisdom of her lifelong best friend, Marcus. 

Torn between assured comfort and true happiness, Lexi has to make a choice, and fast. Will she lose everything, or can she trust karma, and have it all?

One more week!!!

Next Monday is the release of my second full-length novel!! I am so so excited!!

Karma Kameleon is the sequel to A Bitch Named Karma. I cannot wait for you all to read the next chapter in Lexi's life. There's more drama, more laughs, more sexiness and sassiness...more Lexi!

All day next Monday, January 9th, I'll be hanging out here, posting all kinds of fun things. And I'll be partying it up on my Facebook page and Twitter too. All kinds of fun things- excerpts, games and prizes! I have lots of great things to give away!! Hoping lots of my author friends stop by and share their books and excerpts too. Should be lots of fun!

Party Post #1!!!!

Welcome to my Blog Party for the release of A Bitch Named Karma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday and today have been filled with party preparations here at my house....things to clean, food to be made!!!!

I did a lot of baking yesterday: double batch of chocolate chip cookies, a batch of chocolate raspberry bars, a batch of lemon squares. Today I made about 150 mini cupcakes.

So for my first mini contest today, I am giving away a baking prize!!! Along with the recipe for one of my favorite desserts, the chocolate raspberry bars, will be some must have baking essentials!!!

You must be a follower to enter the contest!! Leave a comment with your favorite dessert and at the end of today, I'll randomly draw a winner!!!! Please feel free to pass this along...let me know where you have and you'll get an extra entry in the drawing!!! And if my follower list reaches 150, I'll give away an additional digital copy of A Bitch Named Karma!! Don't forget to enter contest for that from Monday's Blog Post!

More party stuff to come today! Check back and check back often!!!

It's party time!!!

What do you do to celebrate?? My big release party for A Bitch Named Karma is tomorrow and I have a zillion things to do! Food to make, things to clean! Prayers to be said for decent weather. I'm not even real concerned with warmth....just PLEASE no rain!!!

I think the ink on my contract had barely been dry when I started thinking about this party! I don't need much of an excuse to throw a party and how often do I get to throw a party for myself??? I love having a fun time with friends and eating and drinking and enjoying all the merriment that goes along!!

It does feel a bit weird...seeing as the book is being released as an ebook. I wish it was print so I could have copies for my guests. (Print release is still TBA) But still...this is my first publication and to me that is a huge step and I am proud and I want to celebrate!!

What have you done to celebrate a book release, print or ebook????

I'll popping in all day today!!! Stop back for lots of fun stuff!

Only ONE week to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Memorial Day everyone!!!!!!! My plans for today include a trip to a nearby amusement park that we have season passes for! Hope you all are having a fun time as well!!

But the most exciting news- today marks ONE WEEK `til release day for A Bitch Named Karma!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm still not sure how I want to celebrate that day. I will be chaperoning my daughter's zoo field trip, which I am very excited about. They only allow 4 parent volunteers and I was lucky enough to get one of the golden tickets! (It's a lottery if more than 4 parents volunteer, and in this suburbia, there are always tons of parent volunteers!)

My release party is planned for June 12th and I've invited my closest friends, family and writers group members. So far, it's looking like I'll have about 50 or so guests, with a bunch still MIA. (Why can't people rsvp???) Hopefully Mother Nature will give me a warm sunny afternoon and evening. My house cannot hold that many people! :) I wondered if I should even be having a party...the book is being released digitally at first...no books to sign or anything. Print release is still TBA. But I've worked hard for this and I wanted to celebrate. I'm officially starting my writing career...after this when people ask what I do, I can say "I'm an author!"

Two weeks and counting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Two weeks from today, my debut- A Bitch Named Karma will be released!!

I am so so excited!!! Can't believe that it's been a year since receiving the email that changed my life and career! It feels so amazing to know my story will sound be out there for the world to enjoy!! (I hope everyone enjoys it anyway!!)

It will be available for sale on my publishers site: Lyrical Press. And here's my listing on Amazon.

So, of course there will be a mega celebration over here!! Not sure what we'll actually do that day. I am chaperoning my daughter's zoo field trip during the day but maybe a celebratory dinner out will be necessary??? :) We are throwing a party that Saturday and have invited all our friends and family and surely it will be fab! (Hoping mother Nature complies since it will be an outdoor party.)
