So… I’M OFFICIALLY A FREAKING AUTHOR! (Part I)

So, you guys…I’M A FREAKING AUTHOR! There will be more on my ‘squees’ and my ‘eeps’ and my ‘aghs’ later, but for now, I just wanted to let you know that Finding Home is officially on sale, and I’m really excited about it.

You can get it at all the places, including Amazon US, Amazon UK, iTunes, B&N, Booktopia, eBooks.com, Google Play, JB HI-FI NOW eBooks, Kobo and at Big W eBooks.

I will post in more detail later, but so you know so far, I have had: All. The. Feels. In the eight-hour countdown to official on sale time, I have had the following thoughts:

‘What if everyone hates it?’

‘What if my mum hates it?’

‘There’s sex in it! I don’t want anyone I know to read it.’

‘There’s sex in it. I want everyone I know to read it.’

‘AGH! Does this mean I can put ‘Author’ down as my occupation when I fly internationally?’

‘I’m not even that excited. I should feel something more.’

‘I’MTOOEXCITEDICAN’TBREATHEORSPACEOUTMYSENTENCESANDTHOUGHTS!’

‘Should I leave work when I go on sale and drink champagne?’

‘Oh my gosh. Why did I want to be published? This is a bad idea. I’m going to get SLAMMED in reviews.’

‘Should I eat a block of chocolate to see if it makes me less nervous?’*

As you can see, I’m pretty calm, cool and collected about it all. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that my book is on sale, thanks to the lovely folks at Escape Publishing, and I feel something/everything about it.

*The answer was, no, I shouldn’t have, but sadly yes, I did. I ate a block of chocolate and it definitely made me MORE anxious/excited/hyperactive.

  1. Woot! CONGRATS!!! So amazing! I only heard about your book the other day, but now I can’t wait to read it. 🙂 The chocolate sounds like an awesome idea.
