MAGNETIC SHIFT has found a home!!!

SKWEEE!!! I’m getting published!!!

Yes that's right…I got the call. And not only did I have an offer, I had two…double SKWEE!!

But instantly my heart knew which press to call home. I’d had my eyes on them for a while and now I’m proud to say that MAGNETIC SHIFT will be published by Spencer Hill Press early 2016. Words do not express how I’m feeling right now. I’m so honored to have the chance to work with a great team and I look forward to getting started with this new chapter in my writing career.

There will be many good things to come, but for now, I've added a few pics and the official PublishersMarketplace announcement below. YAY!!!

OMG I Won!

So before I signed with my agent in July I’d entered a contest.

Which contest you ask?

The 2013 Unpublished Maggie Award for Excellence contest hosted by:

When the news came in August that I was named a finalist in the Young Adult category, I couldn't believe it. My baby, the one I’d poured my heart and soul in, the one that gave me hand cramps because the ideas flowed faster than I could write them (I hand write my first drafts), my pride and joy MAGNETIC SHIFT had gotten me into the finals. So imagine my reaction this month when I saw my name pop up on my Twitter feed, tweeted by someone who was in attendance at the GRW Banquet when they were announcing the winners of the contest.

I skwee’d so loud my husband nearly had a heart attack. Shortly after I got the official phone call. The only words that I could muster were thank you, thank you, thank you while my mind kept screaming “YAY!!! My writing doesn't suck”…lol

When this beauty arrived in the mail, I got all teary eyed.

I will cherish this award forever. It's a symbol that I can look at every day and know that I can do this. I can accomplish this dream. And I will.
