So much Excitement! Cover Reveal...

 Happy Monday Everybody!


We're down to eleven (11) days until Christmas, if you can believe it! I can hardly believe how fast this Advent has gone--at least, it's been fast for me. I'm not finished Christmas shopping, which is strange because I'm normally done near this time, but, we're all blaming 2020 on things being not the norm (whatever the norm is for each person) so, that's what I think I'll do.

I did plan, however, to do the cover reveal for Divine Love, 2nd Edition, so that's what I'm doing today on here!

My contract expired with the publisher (and it was decided that it wouldn't be renewed), and so I've chosen to do a quick run-through of some editing and reissue it myself. (It's hard to get an agent or publisher interested in something that's already been previously published). It's the same story, just did some little editing here and there, and decided that a newly edited novel needed a new cover. I've been fortunate to be able to work with the cover artist who did the original covers and am thrilled (as usual) with what she came up with for the new one!

I'm looking at releasing the 2nd edition in February of 2021--this will be for the E-Book, and I hope the paperback to follow very soon after (or at the same time--that's a detail I'm still working out because the paperback is a little different case than E-Book--I would like to release not just in Kindle, but also in Nook--maybe even some other E-book platforms as well. Those details aren't ready to be shared, just yet).

So, *drum roll* I give you the 2nd Edition of Divine Love, Book 1 in the Immortal Dreams series, cover art for you to enjoy:



Isn't it gorgeous? Fiona Jayde Media is the company I used (she also did my bookmarks and all my original covers). And in January 2021 an email interview I did with Fiona will be up on The Author Encounter's blog for a blog version of The Author Encounter presents: Behind The Page: Industry Interviews with Bethany Averie.

I'll be posting about the new cover art on social media this week, with this fun graphic that I put together (thank you, Canva!) So, I thought I'd share that graphic with you, as well.

Here you go:


Anyway, I hope you all are having a wonderful Advent and got your Christmas shopping all done!


Hope you have a Magically Marvelous Monday!

It's Worth A Fortune

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

By
Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
