THE CHAOS GRID cover and pre-order link is not only live, but hit #1 on Amazon for it's genre!
          	This is bonkers to me guys! My debut novel is sitting at #1??? I cannot believe it. Here is the link you can pre order the book and see the beautiful cover my publisher made: https://amzn.to/3S03hRu
          	I am beyond pleased. 
          	
          	Oh! And here is the official blurb about the book:
          	
          	Cross the grid. Survive the storms. Let your destiny burn.
          	
          	When mankind’s attempts to control nature backfire, Texas descends into a wasteland. Storms rage and ravenous beasts roam the Outer Grid. The only safe havens rest inside the tech-obsessed domed cities. But when her parents are murdered inside the Plex City dome, seventeen-year-old Juniper Conway wants revenge.
          	
          	Ties to her extended family threaten to pull her back as she runs from city to city. The Plex is endangering its citizens by legalizing a deadly nano drug, and Juniper’s family needs her help to deliver the counteragent. Saving the city who orphaned her goes against everything she stands for. The only way out is to brave the wasteland.
          	
          	Juniper joins a shipping crew fearless enough to transport food across the Outer Grid. But when a string of bad luck turns lethal, she fears something, or someone, is dragging her back to the Plex. As her world sinks into chaos, Juniper must decide if revenge is worth the lives of the crew she has come to love.

          You guys, I've got some exciting news to share. It's official, my debut post apocalyptic novel is titled:
          
          THE CHAOS GRID
          
          Mad Max comes to Texas in this post apocalyptic story of a girl who joins a crew of truckers across a monster infested wasteland to escape becoming the savior to the domed city that murdered her parents.
          
          Oh man, I can't even tell you how excited I am to share the cover. My publisher just showed me the final design, and it blew my mind! And I want YOU all to be the first to see it. To do so, you can join my cover reveal team.

@Coffee_Crusher Thank you! Yes, sorry for the panic. There's a lot of behind the scenes work going on now where the details are foggy. I'll have a lot of info coming up on The Chaos Grid, but not on the steampunk books yet. Hopefully soon, if all goes well. (Though "soon" is a relative term, I suppose.)

I signed a publishing contract with Enclave Publishing!
          
          It has been eleven years, but I finally have a "Yes" to share with you all. Here's my Instagram announcement: https://www.instagram.com/p/ClRSG_IuUhe/
          
          My debut novel, an apocalyptic dystopian taking place across a ravaged Texas wasteland, will release in spring 2024.  Blade Runner meets Mad-Max in this futuristic story of a girl who must join a crew of truckers across a monster infested wasteland or risk becoming the savior of the domed city that murdered her parents.  
          
          The story is filled with wild storms, dangerous monsters, a reluctant heroine who is always getting herself into trouble, and a very handsome trucker who drives her crazy.

@carmella_grace It is for a new novel...BUT I have some interest in Harlow's story. I'm hoping if we get lots of interest in my published novel, it may give a boost to City in the Air.

Forgot to mention, there is a teaser on my site under the Books page, giving you a peek on what the new book is about. (HINT: monsters, giant trucks, and Mad-Max)

Happy Saturday, everyone! I wanted to share a few things. CITY IN THE AIR has an updated cover today. I was in a rush to make the new cover to qualify for the Wattys, but now that that's all done, I reworked the background to make it fit the new cover I'm making for DANGER IN THE DEEP (The Light Bearer Chronicles book 2). 
          
          Progress on that book is going well. Once I have the edits done and the cover ready, I'll be posting chapters. (I'm thinking sometime in the first half of September or sooner.) In the meantime, please check out CITA's updated cover and let me know what you think.

          Also, what are you reading these days? Any recommendations? (Anti-recomendations?)

@mia-carmen So excited for you to read it again! There have been major changes to the world (as it's on a different world now) and the editing is crisper than before. But the characters and plot remain true. I am currently working on tightening (and finishing) book 2. When it's closer to finished, and I have the painted cover ready, I'll be uploading it here. (Lord willing!)      For the giveaway, you can tag multiple people in one comment or in multiple comments as long as the same person is only tagged once. Good luck!!!

BIG NEWS!
          New City in the Air cover!
          ***
          Hi all! With the release of A City in the Air as a middle grade here on Wattpad, I noticed the chapters weren't lining up with the comments. Some comments were giving spoilers and causing confusion. Since editing out 20,000 words, tightening the story, and cutting many chapters in two, the new novel no longer fits in the old book. 
          
          To fix this, I'm uploading the complete story into a new Wattpad book titled CITY IN THE AIR with a shiny new cover (digitally drawn by yours truly)! 
          
          You guys! I can't wait for you to see it. 
          Check it out here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/317693892-city-in-the-air-a-steampunk-adventure
          
          If you've just started reading A City in the Air, no worries, everything you've read is going to be linked in that book to the new book.
          
          And since the new book upload coincides with Wattpad's open enrollment, I'm going to enter it into the Watty's! Wish this little steampunk book luck!
          
          I'd love to hear what you think of the new novel and its cover. :)

@WillFlyForFood Thank you! I do plan on keeping the original cover up for a while as I still love it. And thank you for checking out my cover site. Just let me know if you ever need a design in the future.

WillFlyForFood

@LyndseyLewellen Just so you know, your original cover is one of the BEST ever published on wattpad. I often check out your web site to see what you are working on. When one of my novels needs a cover of your style and genre, you are first on my list of artists. JC

@MangosandMangos Thank you! My husband and daughter picked out the design, so that means a lot. I hope you enjoy Harlow's story. :)

Hello everyone! I just wanted to stop by and say I've reworked ACITA as a middle grade novel. The chapters are tighter, shorter, and there are a whole lot more of them. So if you read the comments in later chapters and get confused, it may be because those were comments for the longer chapters. I'm updating them a few chapters a day till I get them all over.
          
          Also, it is now set on an alternate world instead of London. It still has a similar Victorian style, but we are now in the world of Corshire. My lovely daughter drew me a map I keep in my office of ACITA's world. I may post that here one day. (We're drawing in landmarks as we go.) It's pretty rad!
          
          I'm also working on trying to traditionally publish my MAD MAX -esque adventure novel that takes place in a cyber-punk Texas landscape. I will let you know of any news on that front as it comes available. 
          
          Until then, happy reading!

@MangosandMangos Still cruising along. (SLOWLY) I reworked the MS to be a middle grade, and then moved on to edit and refine my YA cyberpunk (which isn't on Wattpad). But I thought, since this is cleaner than ever, why not put it back up. Enjoy!
