Today is the 2nd anniversary of me clicking that publish button for An Unexpected Turn.
I cannot believe it has been two years. I STILL cannot believe I actually wrote a book. You’d think that after two years, it would have finally sunk in and settled into a solid fact in my head, but it really hasn’t.
If you want to help me celebrate, feel free to go grab yourself a copy or tell someone else about it!
I started the Kindle ebook give away for An Unexpected Turn on the anniversary of the day I clicked publish. It ends on the day I celebrate another anniversary. 19 years and Hubby and I are still going strong.
It has been an interesting week to try and honor and celebrate both of these milestones, but I’m grateful for the chance to get to do so, even if it is low key. Today, I can say that I published a book and a year later it is still drawing interest and hitting new milestones I never even considered when I hit that publish button. Today, we are all healthy and I get to celebrate another year with an amazing human that helps to make life so much more fun and bright. I’m incredibly grateful for both of those things.
So, if you were considering it and haven’t yet, now is your last chance! As always, please feel free to share it with anyone you may think is interested.
To those of you that have already picked this up! Thank you.
I saw this last night and just about had my mind blown. Until I offered up my book, An Unexpected Turn, for free on Kindle, I hadn’t had any sales or reads through any marketplace outside of the US. I’ve now had enough to end up in a top 100 ranked list on Amazon in the UK. This is in the top 100 free books in my Family Life genre.
It may be a tiny little genre and I may not stay there for long (my ranking has already dropped a bit), but… I’ve made a list. That isn’t a milestone I ever really expected to hit, so I’m a little speechless over the whole thing.
Oh and… I’m only about 50 spots away from hitting 100 in the US in that same genre, so… yeah. I’m a happy girl today.
Feel free to see if you can help improve any of those rankings by grabbing yourself a copy! Or… you know… post a review. Or tell someone else.
Major thanks to everyone who has grabbed a copy already and helped to make this possible! Talk about an anniversary celebration!
Just a little reminder that my book, An Unexpected Turn, is free through the 31st in celebration of it’s one year anniversary! Even if this isn’t your type of book, please pass it along to someone you know that might be interested. As always, any reviews you feel like leaving are very, very much appreciated!
One year ago, I clicked the publish button on my book, An Unexpected Turn. To celebrate, I’m offering up the Kindle version for free from 3/27 through 3/31.
Considering I never even planned to write a book in the first place, seeing that I’m celebrating the one year anniversary of it’s release, is kind of mind blowing. If you enjoy emotional stories about found families, feel free to grab this while it lasts. If that’s not your thing, then please pass it along to someone that might enjoy it as a way to help me celebrate this shocking milestone.
Blurb:
“When I take a good look at my reflection, I’m surprised that the face looking back at me in the mirror doesn’t look different than the one I’ve seen staring back at me for the last 27 years. I see the same brown hair and brown eyes, the same heart-shaped face, the same upturned nose. I feel like I should look different. That my face should show the upheaval and the weight of the last day, that it should somehow show how much has happened, how the course of my life has changed, but everything is still the same.”
Life is rarely ever predictable. It is rarely even kind. But… sometimes… just sometimes, those unexpected turns that throw you into the chaos and upheaval of loss lead you to the exact place you need to be.
This is a story about love, but it isn’t a romance. It is about holding on when it would be easier to let go, about fighting for those that can’t fight for themselves. It is about finding and creating family through the unpredictable, beautiful mess that is life.
