My Current WIP..

I stay writing. I love it. Writing helps me escape my own problems (for a little while), as I get so involved i the lives of my characters and trying to tell their stories, that's all I focus on. 

So, my latest novel is called A Chance Seduction. I'm really excited, because I think this one is even better than the other one's before (I'm supposed to think that, right?) Synopsis and a special sneak peek video below. Stay tuned...



Synopsis:

Love is risky business…

After her whole world suddenly comes crashing down around her, Imani Monroe builds a brick wall around her heart, and throws away the key, giving up on the notion of finding love. Opening a sophisticated supperclub is just the distraction she needs to stay away from men, like the charismatic Chance Alexander. Despite the hard outer shell she has around her, the smooth-talking delivery guy ignites the dying flame of passion inside her that she’d forgotten existed. 

Chance is a love’em & leave’em type of guy, who thinks the notion of love and monogamy is for suckers; but there’s something about Imani that has his nose wide open. The attraction between them is obvious, but Imani is putting up a good front, pretending not to be interested in having anything more than a business relationship with him. Never one to back down from a challenge, he’s willing to bide his time- until she gives in and lets him rekindle the sexual fire within her.

Writer Wednesday

I must say, I had a few reservations about #NANOWRIMO because I hate working (writing) under pressure, and feeling like I'm on a deadline. However, I must say, it's not that hard. If anything, it keeps me disciplined...knowing that I've set a personal goal for myself, and since I'm a Virgo, a perfectionist, and I hate starting things and not following through, I'm determined to finish this novel by the end of November. 

I just banged out another chapter on A Chance Seduction, the name of the novel I'm writing, and my current word count is 10,039. It's only my fourth day of writing, but according to my stats, if I keep writing at the pace I am, I should be finished with the book by November 20th (which is also my son's 17th birthday). So, I plan to keep at it. Are you participating in #NANOWRIMO ? How's it going for you? If you are, stay determined and don't quit. Who knows, this novel might be 'the one' to make you famous, so don't doubt yourself. Happy Writing! 

Kicking off NANOWRIMO

November kicks off #NANOWRIMO and I've decided to commit myself to starting and completing a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. Part of the reason why I love self-publishing is that I can write at my own pace, when and if I feel like it and not be on anybody's deadlines, but I feel confident that I can do it. I got in 1,438 words my first day, which isn't bad. 

It helps that I already had the synopsis and concept for the next book I planned to write, so all I have to do now is just write it. I like to challenge myself, and I try to do that with each book that I write. I also want to step outside my comfort zone and even submit a query to a publisher, so wish me luck.
