THE NEXT BIG THING BLOG HOP

Welcome to this blog hop.

What is a blog hop? Basically, it’s a way that readers can discover new authors, because with bookstores closing and publishers not promoting new authors as much, we need to find a way to introduce readers to authors they may not see in their local bookstore.

Here you have the chance to find many new authors. Here you’ll find information about me, what I’m working on now “Your book and if part of a series.” Also see links below to other authors you might like to check out.

I’d like to thank fellow author SUZY DUFFY for tagging me to participate. Click the link below to find out about her latest Bestseller, WELLESLEY WIVES.

In this particular hop, I and my fellow authors, in their respective blogs, have answered 10 questions where you get to learn about our current work in progress as well as some insights into our process, from characters and inspirations to plotting and cover decisions. I hope you enjoy it!

Please feel free to comment and share your thoughts and questions. Here is my Next Big Thing!

I have a book coming out in march or April titled The Forgotten Princess.

The idea for The Forgotten Princess came from the Native American that are local in my area, the story always intrigued me.

I write NA paranormal.

I am not sure of this one 6-8 months roughly.

8: What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?

I don't know, this is a NA paranormal. I haven't read any books like this one but I am sure there is something like it.

9: Who or what inspired you to write this book?

The Suisuni Indians, I love, love, love their story!

10: What else about your book might pique the reader’s interest?

I don't want to give anything away, but there is so cool shape shifting in it. There is love and a witty main character who has a smart mouth.
