Big update ahead! New Year plans and what I'm currently working on!
It's been a hot minute since I last gave you any kind of update. Well I'm bring you a doozy of an update today. I'm going to start on what's upcoming for me.
March 10th I was invited up to Pittsburgh to participate in the Angels and Sirens book signing even. So of course I'm going! While I'm there I'll be catching a hockey game to see the Pens play Dallas. I can't tell you how excited I am about that. Getting my travel all ironed out, that is another thing (I can't stand setting up travel. It's so tedious). Who else is going to be there? Two of my favorite M/M authors, R.J. Scott and V. L. Locey. I might end up fangirling a little too much when I actually get the opportunity to meet them.
I was also invited to the second annual All About the Indies even August 18, 2018 in Arlington, Virginia. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll be able to attend but at the moment it's looking like with my new job, that I may not get to go. I really want to go so maybe I'll be able to work something out.
If those two invites weren't exciting enough, I plan on releasing at least three more book this year. Ultimate goal would be five but I'm being realistic with myself. If I can release three books, I'll be ecstatic. Bar Down, book three in my hockey series, will be out by the end of February, early March. I better get to work!! I have a new character that has come to light, Baggy, who will be getting his story written. Then Remi Blanchard, Sluts, or a YA about Nate and Bishop may get their story written. What do you want to read the most? I hope to release a two short-story update on Henny and Doherty, Nate and Roman. I've gotten a lot of reviews saying they didn't get the proper ending. Well I'm going to make sure you guys get it :)
Bishop and Barrett's story is going strong. I'm about 25,000 words in and I'm planning for at least another 25,000 words to complete their story. I'm pushing myself to write scenes I normally wouldn't write, to be more detailed and to not rely on so much dialogue. I'm a huge fan of dialogue so pushing myself outside of my comfort zone is a big deal.
I also have been posting LGBTQ+ book reviews for the past few months on my other blog, Broome's Books. I'm kind of proud of it and enjoy the fact that several readers and authors have reached out for my type of review. I do what I love, reading, and get to share those authors who have touch my heart in one way or another to other readers. It's hard finding a review blog that features LGBTQ+ books so I decided, why not me?
I got some pretty touching messages about what I write and it proves to me that I'm making a difference even when I'm writing hockey romance novels.
What about ya'll? What are your plans for 2018?
I've got some links to the events I was invited to just in case there are authors you may be interested in seeing or reading. Also, if you happen to find yourself in Pittsburgh March 10th, I've got some tickets to give away.
