Becoming Eden Summary - FINALLY Done!

No matter how many times I say, I could never fully and truly express just how much I pukingly despise writing summaries. That being said I am finally done!!!!!!!!
Okay, here it is, the summary for my new book BECOMING EDEN. Let me know what y'all think :)  Your opinions are valued and listened to...believe me.             

               The small town of Delphi, Colorado wasn't like most towns. New people were always coming and going, there were large numbers of animal attacks in the surrounding woods, and a suspiciously high rate of missing persons. This was the town were seventeen-year old Eden Day had lived her entire life. Eden and her three best friends, Mel, Wes, and Jasmine love to hang out, eat junk food, watch too much television and dream about someday leaving Delphi to see the world. That was until the dark rainy night when Eden was walking home alone in the woods and was attacked by a vampire. Bleeding and broken, she crawled into an old abandoned church...where she died.

                Miraculously coming back to life, she senses something within her is changing. Is she still human? Is she becoming a vampire? Something that would be terribly inconvenient considering she's a vegetarian. In her quest to discover what is happening to her, Eden meets Oswald Chang, a genius computer geek with extensive knowledge of the Supernatural. Through him she learns of the secrets behind her town and her newfound connections to them.

                As the vampire attacks increase, Eden must learn to embrace what she is becoming in order to protect all that she holds close. If she can do this while still passing English and avoiding the irresistibly charming, but equally infuriating mysterious new boy in town, Eden just might have a chance of surviving till her graduation.

Back From Space and Bringing You Updates

First, let me start by apologizing for letting this blog just sit here and collect dust. I always imagined I'd be a better blog keeper, but sadly I've discovered that I suck.
Now that that's out of the way, let's move on to some updates. I should be publishing my teen vampire novel Becoming Eden sometime this month. The summary is almost complete and I'll be posting it up on here soon...if I stop sucking.
More updates, the fifth book in my Protectors Saga is coming along SLOWLY. I've had a bit of a writers funk lately and the book has unfortunately suffered because of it, but I am pushing on, determined to bring Avery, Jade, and Draven to anyone who wants to read more about their story.

I obviously couldn't update sooner because NASA had recruited me for a very secretive and highly dangerous mission. What, don't believe me? Here's the proof you bunch of naysayers --- and yes, the sunglasses are NASA certified.

Now you can never doubt me again ^-^

I Ren Faire, You Ren Faire...We all Ren Faire!

I've always found one of the greatest inspirations for writing is actually very simple...just live your life. Go do things. Learn new things. Have amazing experiences. Make your life an adventure.

So, in my lifelong effort to have wonderful and inspiring experiences, I went to a Renaissance Fair. If you've never been...go...go now. It is nothing short of awesome; expensive and cheesy, sure, but let's put that aside. Just go, munch on an $8 turkey leg, see a joust (complete with a whip of fire), and breathe in the essence of the very Renaissance era, fake as it may be.

 You could purchase a weird looking furby shoulder puppet. Katy named her's Neiman, by the way...or maybe it was Bilbo. I was too distracted by bosoms popping out of corsets and men wearing tight tights to pay attention.

                                                                                   

Or you could enjoy some phallic shaped foods...as Sara and Katy did, perhaps a bit too much.

 

 You can catch a joust...an absolute must! Our knight was the first to go, but we didn't let his demise or pathetic fighting kills dim our fervor. Cheer and cheer loudly...demand blood!

 And last but not least, leave all your inhibitions at home and have a blast. Buy a corset (not for the budget conscious, I gasped and slowly backed out of the store upon seeing the prices), buy yourself a sword (again gasp worthy) or buy yourself mug for the all important ale...that's what I ended up getting for a sort of "reasonable' price, but for some reason it makes everything taste better. Dance to the Celtic drum music. Laugh at inappropriate jokes. Taste the King's nuts...yes they're an actual thing. Have an adventure. Have an amazing experience.

Vampire book done...Bring on the sunlight!

Finally finished the vampire novel I've been working on!

Oh my goodness, y'all don't know how happy this makes me. It's taken way longer than I've expected. It's the reason I've been MIA lately and it's the reason this little lady is sleep deprived and now has caffeine for blood. But it's done! It's called Becoming Eden, and I'll post the summary later...once I've written it. Although, I hate summaries, always have, so it may take a little while. Now I shall celebrate and sleep for a week, then get my butt back in gear writing book 5 of the Protectors Saga.

Writing breakthrough - finally stopped typing my main character's name in my new book as 'Avery'. Old habits die hard.
Looking forward to actually being able to type 'Avery' as my main character again, tho. Soon...very soon.

Yes, Avery and Jade have a playlist too!

Basically there are three main love stories in the Protectors Saga. There's Dravery, there's Eryk and Jade, and there's Avery and Jade. And to be honest, Avery and Jade are arguably the strongest. It's a platonic love, it's a sisterly love, and it really is an unconditional love...and I love writing that! So to sometimes set that tone for my writing, I listen to a few tunes. Below are some of those songs. If you want, look them up and listen to them loudly :)
