One small step for my career...one giant leap in the right direction!!!

I got my first email from a literary agent that wants to read my full manuscript for Star-Struck!!! Woop woop! The waiting game starts...NOW!!!

HELP!!!

How do you promote yourself without being pushy and annoying? I want to tell the world about my books, to get them out there. But being a pest is not my thing. I want it to happen organically, but want it to happen now. I'm ready to work solely on writing. I am so done with thankless customer service.

Rejection...A Blessing in Disguise?

So far I have received two rejection emails from literary agents. Could this be a good thing...possibly. I'm a firm believer in "everything happens for a reason". Right now I'm just glad that at least my queries reached them. Fingers are crossed for amazing things to come.

All work and no play...makes Twyla a dull girl!

So yesterday I sent out my first bunch of query letters to literary agents. Self-publishing as been an exciting adventure and I'm trying to use social media as my platform to promote my books, but it's a lot of work. My brain is on overload. Now I know why people have personal assistants. Trying to write an interesting book, edit, publish, market as well as prep for other future books...oh and working a full-time job, has me running in circles. So I'm hoping that it doesn't take too long to get signed on with an agency and then a publishing house. I'd love nothing more than to have writing be my full-time job! Fingers are crossed and down on my knees praying. It took me 35 years to figure out what I want to do with my life, and now I'm impatient for everything to fall into place. :)

Awe-Struck is Released!!!

Today is the day! Awe-Struck is out for sale. I hope that everyone that is a fan of Star-Struck is happy with the conclusion. I tried to write it as if I was the reader and how I'd want it to end if I was. Anyway...enjoy!
