My newest novel, The Unwilling, is on-sale Feb 2nd. You can pre-order now.
Writing a novel is full of great moments: the first sentence and the final page, the last edits and the parts that make me proud. There are some not-great moments, too, the sleeplessness and indecision, the long, lingering doubts. Eventually, the book will come to market and the readers will decide if I’ve ill-spent a year of my life (or two years, or three…). In-between, though, is a kind of dead zone—the book is out of my hands, the publishers are hard at work. A lot of what they’re doing I won’t see for a long time. We still have seven months before the book is released. (That’s June 23rd for those who keep track…)
Even in this quiet zone, though, there are some pretty awesome moments, and the best is when I see the cover for the first time. After all, it is the book’s face! In terms of quiet-zone great moments, a close second is sharing that cover with my readers and getting those first reactions. So, here it is: THE UNWILLING.
