It’s Official! Announcing My Debut Novel Book Deal

Well, it’s official!!

I’m thrilled to share that after six years of working on my manuscript, my debut novel will be published by Red Adept Publishing next year. Woot!

I got the news on my birthday weekend in January while Sean and I were away on vacation. Happy freaking birthday to me! I signed the contract a few days later with flowers from one of my best friends nearby, a bottle of champagne, and my husband cheering me on. Then, the publisher invited me to a private social media group for Red Adept authors and I got such a warm welcome. Delighted to be in such great company. I am so excited that this book will finally make its way into the world.

What a surreal moment. Savoring it!
