Had so much fun playing around on TicTok. Have no idea what we're doing, but we're doing it! 😄 #booktok #dystopian #thriller #mindcontrol #indieauthor #novel #cognitivedissonance #Adrays

Amazon delivered my updated Author Proof today, and it's the right cover! Finally! I got to hold my book at last! This represents so much hard work, frustration, and... dare I admit, obsession. So, if you read what happened LAST time I got a package you'll know I was quite anxious to open this one, and nervous it would be the wrong cover again. I still haven't heard boo from the "Concern Team" about my complaint and inquiry, so clearly they are not as "concerned" as they cla

Not sure how long this 5-star trend will last, so I'm over-the-moon excited to share another one! Thank you so much, 'Mary!' (Although... this one may need a SPOILER ALERT, assuming the reviewer was telling the truth about the ending, which I will neither confirm nor deny.) 😉 In case anyone can't tell, I absolutely love hearing people's thoughts about my novel. If I could, I'd sit beside every reader to catch their expressions during certain scenes - just to see if they reac

Thank you so much to Tom S for his wonderful review! This makes eight "5-star" reviews in a row! 🥰 I'm so happy! Working on the prequel now, and having so much fun with it! Can't wait to share it with you all, and to see if a certain character written just for Tom S will make the cut.

How can this have happened TWICE?? If you recall, I recently reissued my novel with a new Cover Image. What you don't know is that getting the paperback version was a long and painful ordeal with my graphic artist. At one point, I actually thought I was NEVER going to get it. Seriously. I thought the woman was incapable of doing it. But then she did it! It was done, and I was happy. All was forgiven! I uploaded the file. I ordered my author's copy. And waited. And waited. A

So here I was, sitting down to write after a long "day-job" day, when on a whim I decided to check out my Amazon reviews. (Yeah, I admit I check them out occasionally. Sometimes they make me feel better and help me think maybe all this is worth it. So sue me.) Anyway... today, instead of 3 little reviews sitting there, I saw a fourth one!!! Woo hoo! A new one popped up out of the blue and it's a great one! Thank you, Lisa... whoever you may be. You just made my day. :)

And in the category of Most Improved Cover, I bring you The Waves of Dissonance. 😎 It's been a journey. The paperback Cover is still in revision. Can't seem to get the size or font quite right. But after numerous back and forth with my graphic artist, who came down with an illness in the middle of production, we finally have a new look. Literally. Eye-catching, no? Finding the right photo was a challenge. I must have compared 300 different blue eyes. This one stopped me in m
