Now the fun begins...

I just published my third novel Karma Has a Name and I am so excited to release it. I've been writing and talking about this book for nearly two years. I started it about six months after Caught in the Middle. I kept getting asked what is the next book going to be about and when is it coming out. I had this crazy idea one day and then Karma came out. Over time though, that idea slowly dissolved into something else. It's a book that I'm very proud of. It's full of pain and sadness, happy times and hurt. It has a lot of hurt in it. When I get a copy of it, I might weep on some scenes because some of them were written from strictly emotion. When I dropped a tear, the character dropped a tear. When I fought with my boyfriend at the time, my characters were definitely fighting. When I read the final copy, I will probably relive a lot of it. I hope that the novel, though doesn't come off as a diary as opposed to an actual novel. I made sure to have the fiction moments of a story but I threw my entire life and heart into the novel. I loved Caught in the Middle. It was fun to write and live through the eyes of Lena Harper, my young naive lead character who was an escort. I loved the reactions that readers had after they read it. I literally can't wait for people to read Karma. I've already had a good review of it. I just hope that people enjoy it and understand the depth of things that went into it.
