A book giveaway? I think that's a great idea Dylann! I'll see if we can't get that set up within the next couple of days :)
My ideas come from all kinds of different places. I was cursed or perhaps I should say somewhat blessed with night terrors as a child. Most of them have become great inspirations for my work. Crimson Forest was a bit different. A good friend of mine asked me if I would write her a book about vampires. While I like vampires, I believe they are somewhat over done, so I counter offered with something better. I would write her a book and use her name as a main character. That day, Crimson Forest was born!
For any new author, I would most certainly recommend having faith in yourself. There were quite a few people who didn't believe I could actually follow my dream and I used that to fuel the fire inside me. I had to prove them wrong, and I did :) That my friend, is the best feeling in the world. Never give up on your dreams, no matter how hard it may get.
If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
Have a great weekend!

Hi Benjamin! As a Publicist, I get to do all sorts of fun things. Marketing and building a brand is key in the entertainment world. So I basically market and help build an authors brand. I spend a lot of time on social media, setting up book signings, etc. It's lots of fun and you get to meet some really interesting people. I hope that answers your question :)

Hi Dylann! My next book, Crimson Moon, is set to release this fall. The 2nd Edition of Crimson Forest is actually releasing sometime next week with some neat little changes in it. Thanks for the great question!

I apologize it took so long to reply :) Thank you so very much for the compliments! I'm a pretty bashful person, so good feedback makes me blush...quite a bit actually - so THANK YOU! Crimson Moon is currently in editing and is set to release this fall. Crimson Forest 1st Edition is about to be retired and the 2nd Edition will be out next week with a couple neat little changes. I would love to your feedback! You can email me at christine.gabriel@pandamoonpublishing.com and I'll get back with you through there. Thank you so much once again Meghan!

I love that I can share my crazy imagination with the world. If I can provide entertainment to others around the world, then my life is complete.

Never, ever give up! Have lots of patience and never let anyone tell you that you can't do it, because you can!
