Paperback book is here!

Hi there my stars,
For those of you who waited patiently for the print version of "Starseed: The Initiation"- it is finally here! The wait is finally over! You can get the paperback version at Amazon.

What is the book about? Here's the book description:

Sienna Sinclair thinks she is just another typical teenage girl who is trying hard to fit in with the high school crowds, which she feels alienated by. But when she is contacted by Sabian— a handsome and mysterious member of an ancient secret society, she is led to an unexpected journey where she encounters vile hybrid creatures and mythical beings and is admitted to Astarte Mystery School where she learns to awaken her inner-powers that will prepare her to realize she has a secret and powerful destiny: She is a Starseed.

One of my dreams as a published author is to hold my very own creation- in my hands! That is now a reality! I feel so blessed, grateful and beyond happy- words cannot express my feelings!

I wanted to share this moment with you- my constant supporters and loyal readers. Hopefully you can support me and purchase your very own copy of "Starseed: The Initiation" in paperback. I know this journey will kindle your spirit and imagination! Once you go down the rabbit hole- you will never be the same again- I assure you!

I want to thank my husband Adam for his unconditional support and belief of all my crazy dreams, and my amazing children – the trinity- Seth, Sienna and Syler…who are the genesis and inspiration of this book series….and to my amazing family, dear friends and loyal readers- thank you for your constant LOVE and support.

Thank you for believing in me!!

Find the best literary agent

20130915-113146.jpg
As a writer, it is critical to find an agent who not only believes in your book but in you! Although many writers have been successful without agents, they can be a great aid and resource, especially as a beginning writer.
The wonderful people at Preditors and Editors have researched the agents out there carefully, who have been assessed on a different number of criteria that are important to an author. Go HERE to access this awesome resource.
Good luck to all writers out there who want to get there story out to the world!

Writers looking to publish

For all those writers out there who have an amazing story to tell but haven’t been able to get a break, I am posting a link for different publishing houses submission guidelines. Some require agented submissions, however many will accept un-agented submissions. These publishing houses are in good standing and have a good reputation (our good friends from Predators and Editors have complied this wonderful list).
Good luck with the process! If you have any questions let me know!

In the process of editing :)

My new novel series Starseeds will be published very soon! The first installment of the series- The Initiation is in the editing queue now. The cover is also in the works! YAY!

Starseeds- The Initiation is a cross between Harry Potter, Star Wars and Twilight, a fantasy/sci-fi novel that tells the tale of Sienna Sinclair, who thinks she is just another typical teenage girl who is trying hard to fit in with the high school crowds, which she feels alienated by. But when she refuses to fit in and instead aims to be herself, a trickle of events push for an inner change, that include being contacted by a mysterious secret society that has been safeguarding her and her family for years from the vile group the dark cabal.

Once she meets the very secretive and handsome Sabian Aveiro, her “guardian” and member of the secret society, which blossoms a very complicated, yet deep relationship that has existed since the beginning of time. These set of events pave the way for Sienna to uncover a secret that has been kept from her all her life as well as awakening her supernatural abilities that had lain dormant within. These changes will trigger an inner realization that will change her life forever.  Sienna along with her brethren the “Starseeds” must fight Merak and the dark cabal so as to release their power and control over Earth’s humanity and aid the planet in reaching the “Golden age” prophesied throughout the world, if not, Earth will forever be lost in the dark abyss.

Starseeds is a coming of age novel series that will marvel readers in the search for immortality, empowerment and inner realization, a goal that must be achieved by rising from the ashes by discovering the powers that lies within each one of us that can transform the entire planet.

Hope it will kindle your imagination!

Talk to you soon!
