October
This is THE best month of the year. And this isn’t really going to be a blog in the strictest sense of the word. I’m just here to chit-chat with you and make some announcements.
If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you’ll see that I’ve been playing around learning all the features. I’ve been learning a lot of things lately. And yet, I still feel very new to all the social media things. My social anxiety butts in and tells me I’m doing it all wrong and that I should shut the hell up.
I say, no way anxiety – I’m doing this. In fact, today I literally spoke on Instagram for the first time! I have no idea how it’s going, I’m not going to check. HAHAHA
I have been very busy with RynRaven re-writes and participating in Preptober
Proof right here:
Preptober is the month leading into NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month – where writers commit to writing 50k words in one month). I’ve never won before, but then again, I’ve never done prepping prior to November before. This year, I aim to win it! I usually only go in to the month with one sentence – this time I’m diving in with an actual, real live outline! I’ve never even outlined a novel before. SO MANY NEW THINGS this year, haha.
But I digress . . .
As usual
First announcement I’d like to make is – On October 31st, in honor of the best day of the year – I’ll be giving away a short story called ‘The Swing’. All you have to do is sign up for my newsletters, if you are already signed up, you will automatically be sent a link to the story.
Second Announcement – sometime in November I plan to do a cover reveal for RynRaven AND post a sneaky little peek at the story. It’ll either be a full chapter or maybe a chapter and a giveaway for more chapters – who knows.
Third and final announcement – In celebration of NaNoWriMo I’ll be hosting a couple of contests through-out the month. So, make sure you are signed up for my newsletter, so you get early alerts and details for all of those.
Have a great and spooky month! I’ll be shouting out at you soon
