It's Finally Here!!

Almost two months post release date (I know, I know) First Position is finally live. Hooray! I'm so incredibly excited to share the first part of Lana and Rowan's love story and look forward to hearing your feedback.

I'll be making a greater effort to be present via social media because we all know it's my weak point. Catch me on Twitter @alicarterwrites or on Facebook. I have one...I think. I can't wait to get Second Nature out as well. The scheduled release is October 2014. Keep an eye out for a cover reveal and the opportunity to score an advanced reader copy!

Half-Baked Bread & Literature

I had a conversation with myself last night in which I relentlessly beat my head against the keyboard for like...5 solid minutes. No concussion, thank goodness, but an epiphany I wasn't quite expecting.

The truth about being a writer is that it's hard - not just to sit down and get words onto paper, but to release your work to the public with the confidence that it's written to your standard of perfection.

I promise nothing that's Pulitzer worthy, but I do want to promise that the words you read are well thought out and meaningful to not only my characters, but to the plot as well. At the heart of this, I'm also a reader and when I consume half-baked literature it bums me out and makes me sick.

It won't be much longer. Minor changes are on the horizon and a heaping dose of patience and love. I'm learning as I go :)

Cover Reveal: First Position

The day is finally here. Book one of the Body Double series launches July 8th but the cover is ready for release. I'm so excited! I hope the cover engages readers as much as it did me. I feel it's a true reflection of the ambiance of the book and I'm excited to see how it's received. So...without further ado:

You can check out the synopsis on Goodreads or on my website. Stay tuned for excerpts and other upcoming surprises ;)
