I wrote my first book in 3rd grade. First, our teacher taught us how to write and illustrate a book. Then, a woman came to our class and showed us how to bind the books we'd written. I have been obsessed with writing books ever since. I find it amazing that some children, from a very young age, know who they are and what they want to do when they grow up.
I wanted to share my first "unofficial" book with you today because THIS FRIDAY the third book in my #ElenaRansom series is being released on Kindle. I am trying so hard to promote my book series right now because I am hoping to release my fourth book "Elena Ransom and the Lost Son" in November 2020. You can become part of my story by supporting the #ElenaRansom series. This book series is available in paperback and on Kindle. This is the perfect time to start a new adventure!! If you've already read the books, please help me out by leaving a review on Amazon today!

ANNOUNCING! In just 2 weeks, “Elena Ransom and the Unexpected Disclosure” will be available on Kindle. This is the 3rd book in the #ElenaRansom series.
ALSO, Book 4 “Elena Ransom and the Lost Son” is in the hands of 3 beta readers. We’re crossing our fingers for a book release party in just 4 months!! We get attached to characters, don't we? Some of us get so attached that we literally scream and cry and laugh and experience EVERY. SINGLE. EMOTION with the book characters that we love.
It was SUPER IMPORTANT for me to make sure that I created characters and dialogue that tweens/teens can relate to. In fact, all of my main characters (and many of the others) are based off of real people that have been or are in my life. I want them to feel real. I want their stories to feel real. So, what's up with this photo? It's my chicken-scratch note that I wrote many moons ago about the journey each of my main characters would take through the entire "Elena Ransom" saga. Even though I've only published 3, I'm going to eventually publish 6 so I wanted to make sure I knew the main character archetypes. In case you can't read sloppy handwriting, this reads: For Elena the journey is FORGIVENESS Austin is SACRIFICE Kidd is WHOLENESS Declan is STEADFAST HOPE/PURSUIT Abria is LOVE Fergie is OBEDIENCE/DUTY Pigg is MERCY/GRACE If you're looking for a new adventure series (or one that you'd like to read with your child), you can read FREE samples today! |
