30 Oct Happy One Month, Inception!
Today marks the official one month publication birthday of Inception. This has been one of the most exciting months of my life. Just seeing Inception live on Amazon.com for the first time was exhilarating. I had accomplished what I set out to do; I finished the book, and I put it out there, and if I didn’t sell a single copy, that alone was enough.
But then the unthinkable happened. People actually started buying it. The dream I almost never allowed myself to dream was actually coming true.
Tonight, as I sat in front of my computer casually (i.e. obsessively) stalking the Amazon Best Sellers list in my category, I found my little book had hit #6. Number 6! I wish I could somehow articulate what it feels like seeing my book there among such esteemed company, but for the first time in my life, there are simply no words.
The only thing I can say is thank you to all the lovely readers who took a chance on my book. I can only hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Posted at 01:09h, 08 NovemberI really loved this book. As a mother of two toddlers I read to unwind and get through stress! Let's just say I read a lot-lol. I really enjoyed this book. It stands out from others in the YA/NA category. I am counting down the days until book 2… What a cliff hanger! I did NOT see that ending coming at all!! Loved it! Great book!

Posted at 06:19h, 09 NovemberI was very much disappointed I couldn't throw myself into the second book the second I finished the first! The story, the depth of the characters, the unexpected twists, all had me completely sucked into your book. I couldn't put it down! Thank you so much for sharing your incredible work.

Posted at 03:41h, 25 NovemberI loved your book! Your characters were so vivid they made me feel personally invested in their lives. I loved that the "good" characters had flaws and the "bad characters were redeemable. YA can sometimes be too one dimensional but this was full of mystery, myth,adventure and romance. I loved the base of mythology and the fictional story you created. I am so glad you published your work! Can't wait for the second book. This book joins the mortal instruments series! You are going to be leading the new big YA genre that explores nephilim. This is going to follow the vampire and post apocalyptic genres as the next big thing and I can't wait!

Posted at 09:46h, 28 NovemberWow, thank you so much for your amazing comment, Natalie. I can't tell you how much it means to me to read this.

Posted at 09:56h, 28 NovemberHi Andrea, thanks for reaching out! As it stands right now, there are definitely at least 3 more books coming. I might also do a couple of spin-offs to explore some of the other character's stories, though I haven't fully decided on who or when. LOL! I totally understand. Dominic is an interesting character to say the least, and there will definitely be more of him in book 2! 😉
