NaNoWriMo

So I decided to commit to writing a 50,000 word novel in the month of November---eek! That's a lot of pressure! So far I'm set to finish on Nov 21st so I hope I can keep up the pace! This is the first year I've participated in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) so I'm excited!
I decided to write Pieces of Me this month. It's a story I've been wanting to write for a while so I'm excited about it.

Recently I randomly entered a giveaway with Cover Art Collective  and I won a free cover design by Delilah Stephans Designs. Perfect timing, right?

So here is the cover of my NaNoWriMo novel, Pieces of Me:




And of course I had to share the blurb:


Aria Watkins’s life was on the perfect path, or so she thought. She and Sean had big plans for their future together. They were going to go off to college, get married, and have 2.5 kids. But when tragedy strikes, it destroys the heart of Aria and she's afraid she'll never be the same.
Heartbroken and confused, Aria starts college a completely different person. She hardly recognizes the broken girl she's become, but she can't seem to find the strength to put back together the pieces either.
Enter Holden Whitmore.
He's charming, considerate, and he's making it his mission to make her smile.
At first, she isn’t impressed with him, but he’s persistent and soon she discovers there’s more to him than just a charming smile.
Aria was sure she'd never be able to move on with her life, but there's just something about Holden that makes her want to try.
When her tragedy comes full circle, she’s left with a choice: Keep holding on to the past, or move on and find her future...


I love the pretty tones of the cover! And I haven't seen too many others that are similar so I really like that about it.
What do you think?

I'm thinking this will be a January release for me IF I finish it this month but you never know, I might just have another novel out before the end of the year after all. :)


XOXO

Nightingale: Spellbinding YA book about witches

Today I received an email letting me know that NIGHTINGALE has been included in a  recently published wiki: Spellbinding YA Books About Witches!  If  I'm honest, Nightingale is my favorite out of the books set in the Lark universe so I was very excited to see it getting some love finally! Here's what they said about NIGHTINGALE:  "At #3  is "Nightingale" by Erica Cope. Wren Fairchild has no memory of who she is or how she ended up in a Light Elf kingdom. She eventually meets Greyson St Clair, the Consul to Queen Mia of  Álfheimr . He doesn't trust Wren, but in order to learn more about her true nature, he'll have to help her regain her memories. Together, the pair must travel to the one place that can reveal the truth about the past, unraveling shocking secrets along the way." You can check out the rest of the list here !  You can purchase your own copy of NIGHTINGALE here !

Book Signing!

So I'm beyond excited to tell you that I will be having a book signing! It's a local signing in the nearby town of Webb City, MO at Minerva's on Main street. My friend Mary actually talked to the owner about it last month and then my husband delivers there and he also talked to the owner so I knew it was a possibilty but nothing was set yet. So today while the girls were in ballet, I decided to swing in for a drink (PS I got the Espresso Milkshake and it was a little piece of Heaven. Just sayin'. You must try it!). On a whim I decided to ask the girl making my drink if Tom was in and he was! So I introduced myself and asked him about the possibility of doing a book signing there. I let him read the blurb of Lark and he was interested! He gave me his wife's number, and this evening we set a date and time! June 8th from 11am-1pm! I'll post more details when it gets closer but if you can, mark your calendars and come see me!
