NaNoWriMo Books!!!

So, I've decided to do something maybe a little risky...I'm going to be writing two NaNoWriMo's....Yup, two. The first is still going to be the solo project I blogged about below, but the second is sort of a joint book between me and a friend from college. Though technically NaNo doesn't allow partners (however does label them rebels in a good way) we'll both be writing the allotted amount of words due so...technically we're both still fairly taking the challenge. And besides, I've got that other project going too. I'm pretty excited for this, guys! Anywho, here's the blurb I promised for Turn Me On. I don't have one for the other project because it's still majorly in the colab stag...hopefully we'll meet up soon and have everything figured out so we can get working on it. :) Like always, questions are welcome!

Blurb:

Some people have the ability to walk through the minds of others. While this is happening, the assaulted mind processes the events as actually occurring, which means they can get hurt. Or even killed. Telepathy is well known throughout the world, but no one knows who has it, and who doesn't, not even a telepath themselves. The only way to find out is by being Turned On, an event that only happens when an active T.P has entered the mind of an inactive one. Troy Lexin has been Turned On since he was eight. Stolen from his family in the middle of the night and forced to become a Switch--deadly assassin--Troy's secret goal is to get revenge on the man who did this to him. The plan is going smoothly when he accidentally activates a girl he meets at strip club, who then tells him about a secret weapon the resistance is holding that can somehow block out T.Ps. If the Switches get their hands on the tech, they would become unstoppable, which is why she suggests they take it first. No matter how badly his instincts tell him not to trust her, Troy's attraction to Rayna Kinner is starting to block everything else out. But does is she who she says she is? Or is there a darker secret she's keeping from Troy? One that could not only destroy his plan for revenge, but also the world as he knows it?

NaNoWriMo!!!! :D

Hey everyone!! Anyone out there as excited as I am for NaNoWriMo?! This whole storm thing is totally freaking me out! The thought of not being able to access my computer...shiver. It's horrifying. Buuut, what can you do, right? So, I've decided to finally mention that I've decided to participate this year for the first time ever! I've also decided to try a different project for this, one that I haven't had mapped out as long, just for a challenge. This will be a stand alone novel, sort of a paranormal romance. Basically, it's about mind readers, assassins, and mind readers who are assassins, lol. I can't wait to start writing it. Of course, that does mean that my other books will have to take a short sabbatical. For those of you who might find this distressing, you should know that I've already got the first half of Amid the Roar written! That's the third book in the Dreamer trilogy, which later branches out into the Three Realm series. :) Ronan lovers (which there seems to be a loooot of) should really like this book. ;) Anywho, here's the cover for my NaNoWriMo project titled, Turn Me On. Don't let it fool you, I'm planning on it being a lot more actiony (not a real word but who cares) then erotica, but we'll see what happens. I'll post a blurb once I come up with one, which will probably be more around the actual starting date. Questions are welcomed!

All That We See or Seem Rewrites!

Hi! Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who's been reviewing the first book in my teen fantasy series, All That We See or Seem. It's been a big help and made me realize the editor I had used back then didn't do a good job (obviously). Sorry that I didn't pay more attention to whether or not they did, buuut it did prompt me to go back and rewrite the first book. Some things are going to be a little different then the original copy, but for the most part all of those major plot archs are still going to be there so for those of you who already purchased/read the first book there's no need for you to go back and do so again. You can just continue on with the second book :). I'm rewriting as well as editing. Again I'm really sorry there were so many mistakes in that first edition and I hope that most of you will still be giving the second book a try, which was written after a lot more schooling and has a let less mistakes. Anyway, as soon as that new copy is ready I'll update it on smashwords so that anyone who wants to reread it and already purchased it will be able to do so for free. Just felt like I should let you all know, as well as anyone else thinking about starting the series, that I appreciate all the feedback (including the bad) and am taking it to heart.

In other news, I have the cover to the third book finished! I'm not sure when I'll be releasing it, but I'll keep you posted. AND my book blog, The Window Seat, is going to be hosting a new giveaway every week for the next two months! This week three of you could win a copy of, Captured Lies, written by Maggie Thom. It'll be posted up by tonight along with an interview and the giveaway starts tomorrow. Don't miss out! There's a link to that blog at the bottom right of this page so go a head and scroll down to check it out. :)

If any one has any questions about anything, my writing, the giveaways, or the book blog, feel free to post a comment here and ask me. :)

Tempest.
