My second thriller is out today! Pub day is always an emotional time for so many reasons & today is no different. It's always such a long journey to get here w/ so many highs & lows. But the support & sense of community is always the best part of being a writer. So grateful I get to be part of it! 🥹
I went into my local bookstore to sign my new book and someone was already carrying it around to purchase! What?! I obviously had no chill. They then came and found me and said they discovered my other book and would be buying that one too. This author was literally lost for words 🥹

My second thriller comes out next week and I know I should be excited, but I always want to hide when my book is coming out. Anyone else feel like this?

Publishing is just a series of finding out information via jump scares that have everything to do with you but you are the last to know.

So sad to hear the news about Screencraft. Being a finalist for their feature competition last year showed me how much their team cared & supported screenwriters. They were the best of them. #screenwriting #WritingCommunity

#Authors if you are travelling for any reason be sure to take marketing materials with you (bookmarks, business cards etc...) Don't be a doofus head like me on this European river cruise where everyone asked after my book and I had NOTHING to hand out. Don't be me. *slaps head*

I’m on a river cruise in Europe & when I mentioned to a fellow traveler I am an author, they asked after my titles. Not only do they know my debut, but they’ve read it & loved it. I almost cried on the spot 🥹

If anyone wants to add my second thriller BONEY CREEEK to their Goodreads so it looks like I am doing some marketing, that'd be great. 😘

Reminder, authors w/ book deals r struggling behind the scenes too. This industry never ends--rejections, sub, feeling like u r not enough is constant. Work on the next project & the next. It's all we can ultimately control. Trust me, no one's writing journey is perfect even if it looks like it is.

Day made 🥹
Of course! I finished it the other day and LOVED it! You are fast becoming an auto-read author, Paula! ❤️
