This week on the blog
NaNoWriMo update number one! Music, distractions, and a huge word count? Doesn't make sense... but it will! I've got two projects in the works for you, and I know you'll love the little (unedited) excerpts included!
WIP - TCOBS prequel:

Shouts and a few screams, followed by glass shattering cut off the rest of her sentence. It only took them a second to locate the direction of the shouts and see the spray of sand exploding from the ground. The last place they wanted to be hearing those sounds.
Brela let out a huff. “You have got to be kidding me.”
Sure enough, a large vaarasuxa jaw burst from a pit, followed by what sounded like a lot of glass crunching in its teeth.
“Is that the suxa we just caught?” Emril asked, blinking at the monster now clawing its way out of the pit.
“Too small. That’s Ceirdephal,” Brela grunted.
He let out a sigh. “Well, that’s not our problem then.” He glanced down at her with a raised brow. “That’s not our problem, right?”

Outro:
Don't forget about that deal for the Blue Star Series above! Also, for anyone interested in the Passion Planner discount above, be sure to get your orders in soon. There's always an uptick of orders around holiday times and shipping can get really crazy. I use PP every day and it is a lifesaver when it comes to keeping my day on track!
How are things in your neck of the woods? Holiday times can get a bit stressful, I totally understand. Let me know what you're up to, what you're currently reading, and maybe something good that happened this week. No matter how big or small, those wins are a wonderful thing to celebrate!
