• Saying goodbye to another trilogy….


    VioletStorm 1000x1500Well, Violet Storm is here…a bit early, but here none the less. It’s a bitter sweet thing seeing the end to a trilogy. While I’m glad to see their final story release to the virtual shelves, I’m sad to say goodbye some fun characters.

    I loved writing Emma and Jake. I’ve been through a lot with them on this trilogy just as they have been through a lot to finally make it to the end of their journey.

    HUGE thanks to Crescent Moon Press for taking a chance on this trilogy…and on me. I think they helped launch the New Adult craze by stepping out and jumping into a new category way back in 2011 with my first trilogy (Wasteland.)

    Thank you to Jeannie Ruesch for producing AMAZING covers for all of my books. I’ll treasure them forever–and even have posters of each one (well, Violet Storm is on its way!)

    And thank you, readers, for supporting my books! With each purchase you not only helped me live my dream of being a published author, but you helped benefit The American Cancer Society. I’ll continue to do that through the six books I have with Crescent Moon Press.

     

  • Musical Monday–Emma Style


    Hey, everyone. Emma Martin, here.

    I convinced Lynn to let me host the blog this week! No special reason–okay, I lie–there’s totally a special reason….She finished my third book.

    Yep. Violet Storm is done. Sure, it’s just a rough draft, but hey, three books about little ‘ol me–I’m stoked.

    Anyway… she said I could host the blog to help celebrate since it’s one of my favorite things to do. I’m actually considering starting my own. . . but we’ll see.

    Okay, on to the song. Now, I know Lynn likes P!nk, but the songs she likes are pretty old. This new one, Raise Your Glass, is awesome. Sure, there are a couple swear words but the energy that oozes off of the song ROCKS. It just gets me pumped up to go out and kick some demon a–*cough*butt.

    Plus I can kind of relate when P!nk talks about underdogs and freaks. I’m pretty much both…I mean, purple eyes, a tattoo that glows and burns like the fire of Hades near demons . . . .

    Anyway, here you go. Hope you enjoy.

    What songs are rockin’ your world right now? What gets you pumped up and ready to jump out on the dance floor?

  • NaNoWriMo


    Okay, some of you might be going, “HUH? What the heck is a NaNoWriMo?”

    I first thought that as well. **LOL**

    It stands for National Novel Writing Month.

    You might be smirking, “Yeah, right. Write a novel in a month?”

    Well, it’s actually a “contest” to see if we can get 50,000 words on our next noveldone from November 1st to November 30th.

    Sure, some novels are 50,000 words, but mine aren’t, so I use this as a starting point. I’m going to try and write Emma and Jake’s third book, which you all helped me title: Violet Storm.

    It’s totally fun to go through the process with so many other writers. Makes the process a tad less lonely, you know?

    Are you guys doing it? Come “buddy” me and we’ll go through it together. My username is LynnRush.
