So the twin double packed birthday was yesterday  wondering if we should drop two chapters instead of one to celebrate?

Hola Wattpad readers!
          
          We're back, and likely going to repost The Mark of Noba(the edited released version) as well as some romance titles we've been toying with for the time being. It'll all be in the course of between now and August, so please be patient with us!
          
          We hope you like fan fic, because we'll have a lot of it in the time coming!

The Mark of Noba was brilliant and I enjoyed it so much I didn't want to put it down!!!!!!! I didn't think I would like it at first but OMG I'm glad I read it!!!!!!!!! 

Since The Mark of Noba has been released, I've been looking for new ways to promote it. I love my first cover, as you can all tell from how purty it is, lol.
          
          I've spoken with other authors, marketers, those with more experience than me, and in efforts to expose it to new audiences, even though the first cover will always be my favorite, a new cover was issued to the ebook.
          
          This won't change the paperback in anyway, but as interesting as the design is, it doesn't attract the audience it's intended for, which is YA. Illustrated covers are typically synonymous with Middle Grade, and while I've always been attracted to illustrated covers, I believe it was a good decision to change the ebook cover.
          
          What's interesting though is, now I'm stuck with a few dozen bookmarks with the paperback cover, and I'm looking to give some away!
          
          What helps most with ebook visibility are reviews on retailer sites. The Mark of Noba isn't wide, so it's exclusively on Amazon. Amazon will do some of the heavier lifting once a book hits between 50-70 reviews, which is really helpful for a newbie author like me and my sister!
          
          I'd love to clean out my bookmark stash to folks that enjoyed The Mark of Noba, that might want to increase it's visibility. Visibility is often the most important for a book's success, even over sales. So you can see why reviews are essential to it's visibility!
          
          I have about 40 bookmarks(even though I don't intend to have that many people jumping at the chance, lol) that I'd love to give to new homes! If anyone could spare just minute of their time to leave a review on The Mark of Noba, even if it were just a sentence stating that you enjoyed it, just DM and we can sort out the details!
          
          You've all been so helpful in the visibility of TMON on Wattpad! If you're interested in helping other folks find it, consider leaving a review =)

Okay, so I have a lot of work cut out for me, so expect a winded message =)
          
          It's been awhile since I've been on Wattpad. My sister and I used to live on Wattpad before we were officially published, and plenty of authors are good at managing their time writing and on social media, but I admit I'm not the best when it comes to Wattpad.
          
          Rewind a few months to my last message to all the lovelies following. In January, I was in a place where I was in between genres writing wise, and I fed my desire to specifically write NA romance.
          
          I haven't forgotten my YA roots! I just haven't made YA a priority for nearly a year. Fast forward to April 2016.
          
          I get an email from an employee of Wattpad asking if I'd like to apply for a featured story for The Mark of Noba, as they felt it was a good candidate.  The Mark of Noba always had a loyal base, but I figured it couldn't hurt, as I was in turmoil on whether to take it down, and being featured requires a commitment of six months after it's featured.
          
          It was a decision I haven't regretted! The reads have tripled since it's been featured, with people who've loved these characters, the ships, making my day times ten every time I read the comments.
          
          I want to thank everyone who's commented, read through to the end, liked, voted. I've even added a few commissioned artwork to "Some Kiss", "Illuminata" and added the paperback cover for "The City of Fallen Stars" at the end of the book.
          
          It's been an awesome journey, and I wish I could fit everything I wanted to say in 2000 words, but it looks like I'll have to do this in two messages!
          
          But I just wanted to thank readers, as I haven't had the Wattpad app for a while, so I haven't interacted with the awesome new followers as much since I'm not on Wattpad as much as I used to last year =)
          
          I have something to add, but will save it for the next message! But a last thank you to all who've read! Expect another message soon!

Are you writing a second mark of noba book

Blanca, how are ya, darlin!

Hi Lovely Readers!
          
          It's been a while since I've updated, but I wanted to thank anyone who's read my most popular story up here(the very unedited version XD ) of "The Mark of Noba". 
          
          It's been published, edited, formatted, and all these lovely transformations since then, so I really admire folks who can stomach all the errors XD
          
          But there's so awesome things going down over at @su-SPEC-t , an initiative created by @Red_Harvey, highlighting all types of speculative fiction writers! She's even interviewing @FromTheBar with more to come!
          
          I've asked to be a part of the gang, along with:
          
          @OtherEvilTwin of Kitten and the Cloud (sci-fi)

          Happy Reading!

Hi there Blanca, thanks so much for the follow back! It's nice to meet you :) Hope you have a good weekend!

Hey everyone who's read The Mark of Noba! My cover reveal was today so I can officially use my professional cover. The last one was a teaser :)
          
          It's officially on Amazon but takes a few days to update, but if you havent read it until the end yet, there's still tons of time to read the unedited version!
          
          If you'd like to read the edited version, you can contact me, or sign up for my Book Blitz August 25th-31st.
