I realize that I forgot to post this, so for that I'm sorry! I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off for weeks! There's so much to do and not enough hours in the day.
That's partially why I'm posting today.
I announced last week that the release of
Negative Spaces has been pushed back indefinitely. The reason behind this is because I've been spending so much time on
The Mind Breaker Accounts. I've been editing books 1 and 2, preparing for their releases in May and August of this year. The original plan was to publish
Negative Spaces in November, but I will also be writing the 3rd Mind Breaker book at that time. As a writer, it's hard for me to bounce back and forth between two different worlds once I've submerged myself into one so fully. Also, I've always told myself that I would never rush a release, for any reason. I want to give 100% of myself to each novel I write to make sure it's the best it can possibly be. Because of that, I'm going to focus all of my attention on finishing
The Mind Breaker Accounts series before jumping back into anything else.
Negative Spaces will be released some time in 2016. I'll obviously keep you all up to date with any changes that might be made between now and then.
I know a lot of you were really looking forward to the
Small Circles short stories being released, and I am still really excited to share them with you, but I have made this decision in everyone's best interest. TMBA is a series I've been writing since I was 17 years old. I'm 23 now, so that's 6 years I've spent with this particular story.
Without Me was the first book I ever wrote seriously as an author. It was what made me fall in love with writing and publishing. Releasing this to everyone is going to be a huge deal for me, so I am on pins and needles trying to make sure that everything is absolutely perfect.
There are several things I'm planning with the release of
Without Me. There will be a preview on Wattpad in the next 1-2 weeks for you all to read consisting of the first 50 pages! Also, there is a surprise that I've been working on for quite a while. I can't say exactly what it is, but it will be released the week before the book is published, so keep your eyes open!
Speaking of publishing...
I mentioned this on
Grownup Fangirl when they did the cover reveal, but I haven't spoken on it much more. I've published four books as an independent author-- this doesn't include the first two Mind Breaker books that I released in 2012-- and they've all been under Amazon's Createspace imprint. This year,
Without Me will be the first book I've self-published under my own imprint. It's called
Duke Books! I extremely excited about this because having my own imprint will open a lot of doors for me in the future when it comes to selling my book in stores! Vania Stoyanova (genius behind the cover design and photography) has helped me so much. I've been doing this on my own for so long, it's such a relief to finally have a solid group of wonderful people behind me and supporting what I do! There are tons of people I need to thank, but that's what the acknowledgements are for ; )
Thank you for continuing to support me and showing your love. Stay tuned!
-Megan.
