Hey everyone!  Admittedly, I almost forgot to even post anything today.  This week has flown by and I've felt like it's Friday at least three times since last Friday.  If that doesn't make sense to you, it's okay - it doesn't make sense to me either.  Between writing a 7 page research essay for communications class, a bunch of "hair-on-fire" happenings yesterday involving my work, and the general bustle of November and December, I'm a bit out of sorts.  Not to mention that I've started into my three weeks of finals, so there's that. 

Also, you'll want to make sure you keep an eye peeled for a special post on Monday!

Currently Reading: Kiera by Kate Willis, Silent Days, Holy Night by Phyllis Clark Nichols - reviews to come for both.  I also read Finding Fireflies by Angie Thompson, which I loved.  
Current Bible Verse:  "Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name"…

Hey everyone!
Just a quick post today with some updates regarding the sales over the weekend!

My original goal for the free Kindle downloads: 50 for the whole weekend/Monday.  That was completely blown out of the water and doubled in the first day of the sale.  From there, I thought it would be cool to reach 150 downloads, just because.

352.  Three hundred and fifty two books were downloaded between Friday and Monday.  

I don't really know how to even grasp that.  The bestsellers were Welcome Home and Something New, with 97 and 94 downloads for them, respectively.  I was going to find about 352 "thank you" gifs on Google to post here, but...I'm pretty sure that would make any given viewer's Internet bandwidth explode trying to load them all.  So here's Chris Pratt saying thank you. 


Not to mention, there were some - I think around 45, to be exact - that went to international readers.  Germany, the UK, France, Australia, and Brazil if I remember correctly.  So …

GUYS.

Hey everyone!  I have a super-special post today.  Angela R. Watts' newest book, Seek, is going to be released in December -- and of course, you have to have a cover before you publish a book.  Today is the official cover reveal for this novel!  I'm going to get out of the way and let you see the majesty that is this book cover - I actually gasped when I saw it - but first, I want to encourage you to check out her social media  and make sure to add this book onto your Goodreads bookshelf.  That way, you'll be the first to know when Seek is released.

And without further ado....




About Seek Angel Cutler’s routine life is overturned when local ganglord Viktor Marino tries to kidnap her. When she finds out her adopted sister is back in town and working with Viktor, Angel has to run with the protection of two total strangers. Can Angel’s faith in God protect her family when she can’t? Elijah Davis has seen Viktor bleed once, and to protect his family, he’ll make it happen again…
