Hi Friend!
Wow…so everyone who has published before was right. After all the waiting and hard work, once you finally get the greenlight, things move quickly!My manuscript is basically ready for copy edit—my editor is going over things one more time and then we’ll send it over! We also have an amazing cover designer—Lauren Harms (
check out her work here) working on cover design, and I should be seeing drafts in the next few days! I can’t wait to share a cover with you!!!
I’m also thinking about swag and have some awesome collaborations in the works with local businesses! I want to send you awesome On Home themed goodies!
In other writing news, I have a first draft of my nonfiction punk book for WVU Press printed and I’ve been marking that up, I’m drafting a fun rom-com, and I’ll be writing the content for
MommaStrong challenge emails the third week in April.
I’ve started doing
weekly YouTube updates about this whole book launch process, and if you’d like to see my goofy gushing more often, I’d love for you to s
ubscribethere and share with anyone who might be interested!
On March 17th, my mom surprised me by showing up in my driveway (cue tearful hugs) and we got to spend two awesome weeks together! I’m set to get my second dose of Moderna on April 9 and two weeks later, with my RNA sufficently modified, I am looking forward to enjoying such luxuries as visiting a covid compliant restaurant and seeing friends I haven’t seen in a year outside with masks on. I hope you’re also looking forward to cautiously reconnecting with parts of the world you’ve missed. Sending lots of love and gratitude, as always.
