Monday Mishmash 1/11/16


Happy Monday! Monday Mishmash is a weekly meme dedicated to sharing what's on your mind. Feel free to grab the button and post your own Mishmash.

Here's what's on my mind today:
  1. Blues Bones Cover Reveal Signups  Signups are now open for the cover reveal for Blues Bones by Rick Starkey. This is the first book I acquired through Leap Books Seek and it's amazing. You can sign up here. 
  2. Curse of the Granville Fortune Cover Reveal  I'll be revealing the NEW cover of Curse of the Granville Fortune on Friday right here on my blog. Stay tuned!
  3. Editing  I'm editing for Leap Books Seek and my own clients this week. Last week I posted that I have a lot of edits on my plate and jokingly asked people on FB to send me dark chocolate, and the very sweet Beth Consugar showed up at the Pocono Writers Conference with dark chocolate for me. :) How nice is that?
  4. Pocono Writers Conference  I had a great time at the conference yesterday and I got to meet Megan Erickson, a fellow Corvisiero Literary Agency author, and Veronica Park, a Corvisiero Literary Agent. I also bought one of Megan's books. 
    Megan Erickson and me with her book Make It Count

    Megan Erickson, Veronica Park, and me (Veronica was talking when the picture was snapped, but all three pictures we took came out exactly the same. Sorry, Veronica! You still look lovely.)
  5. Big Announcement!  If you are a newsletter subscriber, you will hear my big announcement today, and if you are a Kelly's Coven member, you heard the announcement last week. Everyone else will hear it on Wednesday right here. Come back to find out the big news!
That's it for me. What's on your mind today?

    When you ask for chocolate, it's no joke. SOMEONE will provide it. :D

    Chocolate! That's a perfect gift and you can share (or not) with your fellow writers.

    It must be awesome to finally hold the fruit of your labor in your hand! And chocolates fill the gaps any time!

    Another busy week for you. I'm still waiting on hearing from some agents and brainstorming the follow up novel.

    Beth Consugar (what a perfect surname name for a chocolate fairy!) listened when you asked. Just goes to show you that what you put here is heard there! So will your big announcement...

    Congratulations on everything, Kelly! And to Rick! The pictures look very nice (talking or not talking), and Beth was so sweet to show up with dark chocolates. I'm curious about Granville Fortune's new cover. (All very exciting, though I thought the original was very nice already. :))

      I did like my original cover, but there were a few things on it that contradicted the story. That's been fixed. :)
