The WIP…
The work In Progress) is keeping this author jumping. Actually jumping back and forth between the sequel to RESCUING WHISKEY’S SALVATION and a novella. Took chapters that got axed from RWS and made their own little story. The sequel is at the start of Act II finally. Love writing that they are in Bermuda. Definitely need to see about going there to launch the book, which hopefully will be next fall. Keep your fingers crossed! The novella should be out sometime in April 2022. It stars none other than, Charlie Stockton.

UPCOMING EVENTS…
Hoping to take a few classes at the Lawson Writing Academy. Lots of good stuff there. Margie’s a fantastic instructor. Maybe someday can do her one on one workshop. Would love to go to Denver and write with her. Check out her stuff at https://www.lwa.com/

March 18th local book signing. And guess what local author got asked to participate?
Will be autographing RESCUING WHISKEY’S SALVATION books on Saturday, march 19th from 11 am to 2 pm with other local authors at the Orrville Public Library. Bring your copy or better yet, purchase one there.

PRICKLE TIME…
Whether good or bad, a book should always give you prickles. Hard spikey ones or soft touchable ones. And this review got a four star soft prickle review. And yes, that is good! In fact great!

Title: Everlong
Author: R (Rachelle) Raeta

Recently won an autographed copy curtesy of the Picky Bookworm and new Indie author R. Raeta’s novel EVERLONG. And let’s just say
“Wow! Wow! Wow!”
Her storytelling of a classic boy meets girl romance came across refreshing and the paranormal aspect of it did not hurt it either. Loved her short snappy /punchy sentences with powerful verbs intermixed with those long ones. Loved how she wrote it in present tense first person point of view. Felt as if I stood right next to them listening into the conversations. Loved how Lilly started out unsure of herself until Sam came along to build her up.
Gave it a four soft prickly review only because did not like the ending. Not in the way you think though. To be frank its Lily and Sam’s story, it should have ended there. Lets just say the ending would be more effective with a short and straight to the point ending. Kept waiting for maybe something revealing at the end. Maybe a surprise? Maybe a twist? Something. Did not need the filler. Something. Just Lilly and Sam.
All in all, I loved it and highly recommend this book to romance, paranormal readers… and to anyone who wants a fantastic book to read. But grab a box of tissues to have on hand, you will need them!
