Have I got news for you! Let's see...there's a giveaway of over 40 books (Held Captive included, of course), a story idea poll (because why not?), and some EPIC updates for With Fear and Trembling!
Let's not waste any time, shall we?
garden of books giveaway
I've joined with CelebrateLit Publicity and 40+ other authors to bring y'all an amazing giveaway! You have the chance to win either 42 books (from historical romance to cozy mysteries to contemporary romcoms to fantast epics to...well, the list goes on!) or a $500 Amazon gift card to buy books!
If that doesn't make you wanna enter...
Aren't they all just BEAUTIFUL?! You know you want to...yes, you do...just click that little button down there...
There are SO many fantastic reads that are part of this giveaway! Like Deceived by Madisyn Carlin (which I just reviewed) and Souls Astray by Kellyn Roth (which I absolutely love) and Labor of Love by Marguerite Martin Gray (which I can't wait to read) and *coughs* Held Captive by yours truly (which isn't too bad, I guess). You're sure to find something interesting, I just know it!
the project poll
Now...I don't plan on writing anything this year accept for a few short stories and maybe a couple chapters of a new story...mainly because I've just finished the novel I spent two and a half years on and have a TON of other projects...
BUT I want to be prepared for the next step! Before I write Book #4 in the Daughters of the Seven Seas series, I want to (1) take a break from it and (2) rewrite Held Captive...so I'm interested in seeing what y'all would like to see next from me!
Hence the poll below! Y'all can pick as many ideas as you like, leave your own suggestions in the comments, or ask for more information about each project below! (I'd love to share all about them!!!) Most importantly, of course, have fun! *winks*
with fear and trembling
Last but certainly not least...I have this CRAZY idea to sell 10 copies of With Fear and Trembling (either print or digital) by May 18th...and if I do, I'll publish WFAT in HARDCOVER!!! (Dunno about y'all, but I ADORE hardcover books!)
And if I can sell 20 copies by the end of this month, I'll release a guided prayer journal to go along with the devotional!
So what does that mean?
It means if you haven't bought your copy of With Fear and Trembling yet, now's the time to do so! The Kindle copy is $2.99 and the paperback copy is $9.99! And if you already have bought a copy (in which case, thank you SO MUCH, you precious thing!), then please share about it with your family and friends or on social media!
Keep in mind, I won't publish the hardcover or release the journal if I don't meet these goals! (Yes, I'm basically giving y'all a purchase incentive...is it working???)
So that's my bookish news for today! How about you? How's your WIP coming along? Have you read any of the books that are part of the Garden of Books giveaway? Do you journal your prayers? What story do you think I should write next? (*whispers* What do y'all think about a blog serial???) Let me know in the comments below!
AAAH, GIRL, ALL YOUR IDEAS SOUND FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!! I honestly LOVE ALL the ideas!!!!!!! But since I'm really into mystery right now, that might have influenced my voting choice. Just saying. XDDD A blog serial sounds fun too!!
And yep, I journal my prayers! 😉 I hope you reach your goal of selling 20 copies of With Fear and Trembling by the end of the month!!!!!!
Submitted to the giveaway! We'll see what happens. :)

YOU SHOULD TRY FANTASY I WANT TO SEE THIS
You give your readers a choice of what your write next? 😎
Brave author.
But I think you know which one I voted for. 🤣 Civil War all the way (though I have to say all the other options were quite tempting, too ... )
*whispers back* A blog serial sounds so cool. What would it be about?
These all look so much fun, especially the giveaway! Do I need more books? *glances at tottering towers of physical and virtual tbr stacks* ...Um, well who says I can't start a new stack? XD.
Hi Grace, Woah! I love the idea of the giveaway. I will have to think on that giveaway. Getting 42 new books would be amazing, but I will have to find space on my shelf for more books since all of the shelf space is occupied. *Looks at bookshelf realizing that I have too many unread books on my shelf and not enough time. I love the idea of writing a Civil War mystery story and I am in a phase that I love murder mysteries. My WIP of the novella is going well. I am currently in the rewriting stage. I would love to have it edited before the end of May, before I have beta readers and my…
