Chapter 1 of sequel started!

You would think that being at work, at a middle school would not be an ideal place to write, but it is! My muse seems to be in the mood to write, although at times tends to be difficult and the flow of ideas, words, seem to get stuck, but whatever difficulties I have been experiencing, I now have the first chapter written!

So, to give you a treat to what is to happen, I will let you see the first paragraph, but if you haven't read Birthright, my suggestion to you is...read it.

I never thought that killing a person would make me feel...complete, but when I smelled his blood, that warm rust scent, I had to smile. I had no compassion for the man,a man who hid the truth from me until it was too late. He ruined my life and tried to end it. I only regret that I didn't do it sooner, but then, I couldn't, not before this. It would have seemed appalling.

I will be amiss on Facebook, now that I have started the next book, The Legacy. You can catch me on here for updates and interesting tidbits that might be clues to the sequel.

    Good for you, Sue. Best not to question the muse, right? Just let her go!
    I wish I was writing fiction at the moment, but all I do is articles, blog posts and catch up on social networks while I feed the PR machine.
    Perhaps sometime soon I can start the next WIP.
    Take care and much success.

Horror Book Covers

Designing book covers is like giving birth, it can be a "pain" and sometimes no "labor" at all. There is a pleasure in the end result, when everything you put into it finally comes together and says, "THAT'S IT!" Not always does it come right away, but after many trials and errors (and I haven't had many of them)you find something that works and it unfolds in front of you. My most difficult cover was "Water Hazard" took me weeks only because the author couldn't make up his mind and when he did, he didn't quite like it and it needed to be tweaked a bit (more like ALOT), and when the cover was finally to his liking...he didn't use it! Now, of course, he wasn't an author from Vamplit, because all authors from Vamplit are awesome! Am I right?! I've never, ever had a problem with doing a cover for Vamplit, NEVER. In fact, I can usually spit out a cover in record time and have it turn out perfect usually the first ...
