Novellas

Do you like them? I recently read an article about how authors have to pump out more books to satisfy the demand of readers.  No longer can they publish one book a year and leave it at that. We voracious readers demand more! So in between the release of big titles you have novellas. Novellas are short and sweet. They can either come as single title e-books or grouped together with different authors which is also fun. Recently Eloisa James, Connie Brockway and Julia Quinn released their second collaboration The Lady Most Willing. It is not exactly a novella per se but instead a continuous story. Its a delightful read and it flows together seamlessly. It is the sequel to The Lady Most Likely which was the first collaboration and is also a great read. Read both!

Back to Novellas. I am currently throwing myself at my second book Sweet Torture but I'm thinking I should complete a novella I had started called Fallen Angel. As a new author my focus is building a foundation so that I will not be easily forgotten. I don't want to burn out like a shooting star I want to be a meteorite that makes a hug crater and people come to see me for decades. I want to write until my hands are too mangled to type and I am an old gray woman.

In this fast pace world where people are constantly plugged in and consumerism is at the click of a button I know I need to compete and I need to be a presence. So here I go. Watch out for me because I'm coming and I don't plan to leave anytime soon.

For your viewing pleasure. Mark Wahlberg and a baby chimp! If you had to pick between them who would you choose?




soon.
