1. Happy 'debut' birthday to me!

I don't know about you, but I'm having a hard time believing how fast this past year has gone. On this day in 2012, I released the ebook version of Sprite (Annabelle's Story Part One). I need to take another moment to let that sink in.

Sinking, sinking, okay.

Over the past twelve months I've learned a ton. Much of that includes "what not to do" as an author, but I also walk away with some amazing reviews (each made my day/week), great advice, and some wonderful author friends. For that I'll be ever thankful.

So what have I done in my debut year? I've published/collaborated on 3 novels that I'm quite proud of:


And what does the remainder of 2013 have in store? A LOT! I hope to share updates with you all as the year progresses, but here's a quick look at a few highlights:

  • Move from Washington, DC to the NYC area
  • Release of the Annabelle's Story ebook, featuring SPRITE, KIN, and FATE all in one place
  • Completion of my new YA historical WIP, tentatively titled CAPTIVE (with hopes of finding a fabulous agent)

Before the craziness of this Monday hits I'll wrap this up, but first, I'd like to quickly thank all my family, friends, and supporter who helped me grow as an author over this past year. Thank you!

xoxo
