Teaser Tuesday!!!!

I hope you all had a good Memorial weekend. I actually got a lot of writing done this weekend and can now update you all on a few upcoming projects. To make up for my lack of blog posts recently, I've decided to release THREE teasers today.

1. Redeeming Lainey:

Redeeming Lainey is going to the editor at the end of this week and then the formatter at the end of June. Once the book is done being edited, I should be able to give a release date. I haven't done a teaser in a while for this book, so here you go.

This is unedited and subject to change before publication. 

This is written from Bryce's perspective.

2. Prophesized Book:

I've been working on the last Prophesized Book. The book is about a 1/4 of the way finished. I have all of Ryanne and Colton's sections written. Liam's section is almost complete. I just have to add a few more details. The other characters are being stubborn at the moment and won't talk to me. Because of that, it's taken me a little longer than expected to write some of the chapters. I'm taking a slight break from writing this book because I don't want to force it. When I force my writing, I end up disappointed in the final result. I'm still hoping to finish this book by the end of summer. I'll keep you all updated on it's progress as I get further into it. 

Since you've all been very patient with me as of late, I'm going to give you the first teaser from the book. It's from James' section. 

This is unedited and subject to change before publication.

      “You’ve done well, James,” a chorus of voices rings out behind me. Jumping up off the roof’s edge, I spin around and meet three short hooded figures, seemingly floating a few inches off the ground with their fraying black cloaks swaying with the breeze.

      The Fates.

      No one on Earth has seen the Fates and lived to tell the tale. “Now, it’s your turn to find love for yourself.”

The title for this book is going to be released at the end of Redeeming Lainey. :)

3. Guardians of the Chosen Series:

Because I've been taking a small break from the Prophesized book, I've been working on the untitled first novel in my Guardians of the Chosen series. This book has a lot to do with Greek Mythology. I don't want to give too many details away at the moment because I'm not done writing it. I only have a few more chapters to go and then I'll give it to a few beta readers to get some initial opinions.

Here's the first teaser from that book. I couldn't decide what to "tease," so I just picked the first two paragraphs. It sounds a little depressing, but I do add humor to it. Don't worry!

      Walking through the forest on this cold night, I keep my eyes steady on the path in front of me, letting the low crunch of leaves beneath my feet lull my unease away. It’s hard to see at this time, but the moonlight provides enough illumination. The forest has become my place of solitude lately. During the days, everyone is watching me—waiting for me to crack. They’re all waiting for the moment when I lose it. Where I finally break down and cry. They don’t understand. I can’t. The second I cry, it becomes real. I can’t open myself up to that kind of pain. I won’t come back from it.

      Tomorrow, I have to go live with my Uncle Ben and Aunt Sophie in North Carolina. I’ve never been out of Indiana before. I’ve been living in this small, quiet town my whole life, and I’m comfortable here. For the last few weeks, I’ve been staying with my best friend Aubrey. That was our arrangement. I could stay with them until school finished and I graduated. Then, I was to go live with my family. Technically, I’m eighteen and no longer need parental supervision, but I’m not ready to be on my own.

      Not now. Not yet. Not after everything that’s happened recently. 

That's all the teasers I have for now. I hope something sparked your interest! :) 

Time to get back to work now. I'm going to try and get all these books published by the end of the year. Busy. Busy. Busy. I hope you all have a great week. This weekend will be a little hectic for me, but I'll try to get another teaser up next week. Thanks for stopping by my blog!!!
