Reading tomorrow
I'll be giving my first ever reading tomorrow (Saturday, October 1st) at 11:20 at the Magic Valley Arts Council building out on the canyon rim in Twin Falls. Right now, I believe my selection will be where Steigan discovers more secrets about his namesake, Saint Steigan. Now the full secrets of Saint Steigan's life are revealed (well, okay, maybe not all his secrets) in the second book of the series. So come on out now and listen to my reading to start your journey!

The Three Books Has Escaped!
“You have to find something that you love enough to be able to take risks, jump over the hurdles and break through the brick walls that are always going to be placed in front of you. If you don't have that kind of feeling for what it is you are doing, you'll stop at the first giant hurdle.” -- George Lucas
Sacred Knight: The Three Books has escaped!
Physical copy here.
Coming soon to Amazon, only because it takes awhile for them to list the title after my approval. It'll probably come to my Amazon store the fastest.
eBook versions available for NOOK and Kindle.
For all versions, keep an eye on my publishing website as I'll list all the links as they become available.
Yada! It's party time!

The Beginning!
The Three Books is now available for the NOOK!
I have to say that I'm really not surprised that the universe ended up getting the NOOK version out first. I do love Barnes & Noble!
If you have yet to decide between the NOOK and Kindle, let me just say that both my books look better on the NOOK. There's something strange about the formatting on the Kindle that makes my books just not quite right. I need to borrow a Kindle to see how other people's books look on it. I'm sure I just need to learn more. Still, if I had to only choose one ereader to format my books for, it'd be the NOOK just because of the simplicity.
Well, if you do own a Kindle, hopefully that version will be out by the end of the day. Still waiting on the print version.
Overall, I'm glad that I took the extra time to go through the book again. You'll have a better quality product for it.

New Video for First Book Posted
I've posted a new video for the first book of the Sacred Knight series. In the video is the cover of the book, which has changed since the last post. Why don't you go watch it now, then I'll have a story.
So, after I announced my book cover to the world, I started asking some more people about the book cover. I really had an issue with the flare on the cover. To me, it made the light source look all wrong. Everyone I asked for an opinion said pretty much the same thing.
Now, what I found funny was that the males I asked like the flare and the females didn't. Doesn't that pretty much equate to men liking the bling and the women not liking the bling? Yeah, yeah, who said only girls like sparkly sparkles? Anyway, the flare is gone. I'm feeling much better about the cover.
At least I feel better for this moment in time. I still have another month to change it. Hmm....
If you like the videos, please "like" them and share them with your friends. Let's get the word out. Thank you!

Book Cover
It's done! The cover for Sacred Knight: The Three Books. I painted it myself. I really like being a Do-It-Yourself girl. Let me know what you think.
If you want to see the painting in progress as I built it up, check out my Facebook art fan page.
Time is growing close. April 28th is coming. Things are coming together. I'm so ready!
