5 Female YA Authors that Stole 2014

1. Melissa de la Cruz: She managed to Stolen, the sequel to Frozen, the Blue Bloods story Vampires of Manhattan (that I might just have to check out), and The Ring and the Crown in 2014. That's quite impressive that she came out with all three books in just one year and from what I've read she's working on many other projects also.

2. Sara Shepard: She's the author of Pretty Little Liars and just this year published the last book in the series along with beginning two new series this year as well, The Heiresses and The Perfectionists. Both have TV options. How awesome is that?

3. Maggie Stiefvater: She just came out with the latest book in her Wolves of Mercy Falls series, Sinner and released her newest installment of The Raven Cycle, Blue Lily, Blue Lily. She spent most of her free time touring this year for her devoted fan base.

4. Marissa Meyer: Her newest book, Cress, was released this year and was just as wonderful as the other two books in The Lunar Chronicles. Everyone is abuzz about the bonus book she'll be releasing called Fairest. Not to mention the excitement of the last book in the Chronicles that will be out next year named Winter and will be a futuristic science fiction retelling of the Snow White story.

5.Cassandra Clare: (Now I haven't read any of her books but I did see the Mortal Instruments movie which is cheating but it was still very good.) But anyways she has a dozen or so books lined up all the way to 2017 along with partnering with a few other authors to make The Bane Chronicles. She also worked with Holly Black to create The Iron Trial which released this year and then there is also that highly anticipated sixth book to the City of Heavenly Fire Series. Cassandra Clare also signed up with Hyekyung Baek, an illustrator, to make a manga version of the Clockwork Princess.

If those lovely ladies aren't inspiring I don't know what is. Just writing about them makes me want to go into overdrive and get like five books published in a year.

What do you think of these author's books and their amazing year of 2014?

Cover Reveal: Golden Touch!!

 Happy Tuesday!!  Today's the day! I turn 23 and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than to share the cover for Golden Touch! I think this is by far my favorite cover my mom has ever done. It's crazy to think that this time last year Golden Touch was still just a first draft and I was in the middle of writing book 2 of the series. A defining part of my twenty-second year will always be having revised Golden Touch and written almost the entire Archive Series. And now I get to open up my twenty-third year with sharing the cover and writing book the first draft of book 5, the very last book in the series. God is so good guys. I really think He gave me Golden Touch and this whole series a few months before the events of 2020 started. He gave me a story I could get lost in, I could find joy in even during some of the hardest times of the year. And now I get to share the cover and I get to close out the series and I just pray and hope that God will use Golden Touch and...

How to Write A Survivalist Character During The Apocalypse

Hello friends! It's been a while... The last two weeks have been kind of nuts. The entire world is freaking out, everything's been turned upside down. Last week was rough... I had wanted to write out a birthday blog post and do something special on here for turning 22, but then everything happened and I was too stressed and I forgot to write anything, so that's kind of a bummer. I guess I could do it this week, but I feel like something else is needed for this week. I was thinking I should write some meaningful, hope-filled blog post. Write about what's going on in the world... but then I realized, everyone is already doing that. Social media is saturated with hope-filled positivity. And don't get me wrong, that's great! It's needed right now. To be honest though, Sunday night and into Monday I was getting pretty fed up with all the positivity. I think I was just overwhelmed and stressed, but I got pretty bitter and told my mom I was sick of hearing all th...

Five Tips for Getting in the Writing Mood

Happy June everyone!! I am both excited and a little anxious for this month... Excited because the twenty one pilots concert is at the end of the month and because my college class starts at the end of the month too (while also being a little anxious about it as well haha). Honestly, I don't know why I'm feeling a little off about this month... Maybe just cuz it feels like there's going to be a lot going on... I have an over the phone adviser meeting tomorrow and am helping at my church's VBS from 8 to 3 Monday through Friday next week. It'll be good but it's still a little daunting to think about :o But anyways! There's been this weird trend going on right now in my life. Just in the past week I've watched several live videos and authortube videos and read blog posts (most all of them about pantsers or having to do with pantsers in some way) and they all have included, well, pantser stuff but also how to stay in a writing mood. No one has mentioned h...
