Ripple the Twine Blog Tour Day Four

I’d love to thank Nikki at Storm Goddess Book Reviews & More for giving 3.5 Lightning Bolts to Ripple the Twine! Lightning is, for lack of a better word, awesome. That many bolts on my first novel kind of make me want to do the happy dance right now! I may not stop using exclamation points all day long!

Storm Goddess Book Reviews & More has also featured the synopsis, bio, and links to all my online homes. I was particularly excited to read the review because Nikki’s profile indicates she lives in Phoenix. Me too! Of course with a book based in Boston it was important that Ripple the Twine still resonate in other geographic areas.

Please take a minute and check out today’s Tour stop to see how my book stacks up.

Thanks again Nikki!

Day Three Ripple the Twine Book Tour

Today's stop on my Chick Lit Plus Blog Book Tour is to the wonderful Kaley at Books Etc. She's is working her reviewing muscle for Ripple the Twine today, and what a great review! Please take a minute to check out her candid feedback.

Now, some of you might think I’m crazy for saying that Kaley’s review is "great". There were a few places where she struggled with my writing, particularly narrative versus dialogue, etc. But these are the things I need to hear in order to improve as an Author! So I’m thanking Kaley for sharing where there might be issues, how to tighten up my novels, and will certainly make use of her advice in the future.

Please stop on over to Books Etc. and leave a comment of thanks on her review for Ripple the Twine or any of the other fantastic posts on her blog.

Aside from the critique, Kaley seemed to really enjoy the book. Hooray! All the positive response I’m getting for Sara and her friends makes me so happy! This was a story I had to tell and as my first novel I’m just so grateful its getting the happy vibes and healthy critique that I’ve seen so far.

Thanks for checking out Ripple the Twine Kaley, I am so excited for the review!

Hope everyone has a chance to get over and leave some love at Books Etc. She’s got some amazing books and Authors featured over there, go check it out and maybe discover a brand new Author.  Speaking of features…I’ll be featured again at this blog this Saturday with a Guest Post (link to follow). Awesome and thanks again to Kaley!

Today, Ripple the Twine is featured over on the awesome blog Every Free Chance Book Reviews. EFCBR is run by Chrissy, a mom who pretty much spends all her free time reading.

Okay, well maybe not all her free time because there are quite a few reviews of great books on her site as well!

Every Free Chance was gracious enough to interview me for her blog in addition to completing a review (she said she didn’t want to put it down and really enjoyed it woo hoo!). I really enjoyed answering her interview questions, they were thought provoking and the first interview I’ve done for Ripple the Twine! Yea!

If you take the time to read through the interview and review, plus a little excerpt to whet the appetite, you can enter the giveaway right there at the bottom of the post. The giveaway will run for a week so get your entries in and maybe you’ll be the winner of my first book!

Happy reading, happy entering and don’t forget to give Chrissy a big high five for being such a great host today!  Thanks for the feature and for hosting the giveaway!
