THE MISTAKEN Blog Tour: Day Nine

I made it to Day 9, three-quarters of the way through my big tour,

and time to splash a little water on my face.

Today’s guest post is over at Heather M. Gardner’s The Waiting is the Hardest Part.  Although Heather often posts lighthearted subject matter—Stormy, anyone?—I get a bit more serious.  You see, Heather beta-read my manuscript right before my book deal, when I was trying to decide whether or not to compromise on content just to get it published.  She did me a great service, and I will be forever grateful and in her debt simply because of her honesty.  Check it out and tell me what you think.

Would you ever consider compromising content to get published?       

As always, every follower who comments here during my tour will be entered into a drawing for an ARC of The Mistaken and a bookmark.  Plus, 5 runner-up winners will each receive an ebook copy.  Winners will be determined using Random.org and notified via email.   

Tomorrow on Day 10, my best friend, Lisa Regan, interviews me over at her joint. And Falling For Fiction gives The Mistaken some love.

THE MISTAKEN Blog Tour: Day Eight

It’s Day 8 and I’m getting my second wind, even on a Saturday.  Are you with me?   

Today, I have the pleasure of visiting Aimee Jodoin’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Woman for an interview.  When I finished revising the first draft of The Mistaken, I reached out for critique partners.  The first was not a good experience, but the second one was, for I found Aimee, and I see her every time I read through my novel, smiling when I remember each suggestion she made.  And they’re all still in there, each and every one.  I was so excited when we were reunited here on Blogger earlier this year.        

As you know, every follower who comments here during my tour will be entered into a drawing for an ARC of The Mistaken and a bookmark.  Plus, 5 runner-up winners will each receive an ebook copy.  Winners will be determined using Random.org and notified via email.   

Monday on Day 9, I’ll discuss a humbling experience over at Heather M. Gardner’s The Waiting is the Hardest Part.  Come see the important lesson Heather helped teach me.
