Lately I've been playing around with iMovie trying to put together a book trailer for The Paris Secret. While I was searching for the perfect video clips and images to use, it suddenly occurred to me that I'd never done a trailer for any of my Kendra Clayton mysteries. The reason being that when I was under contract for my series book trailers were still pretty new and even now their effectiveness in getting readers to buy a book is questionable. But I still think they are a lot of fun and just one small piece of the bigger promotional picture. Recently I discovered Animoto. Animoto is a service that allows you to upload images, video clips, and music and mixes them into cool custom slideshow videos. You can create unlimited 30 second videos or pay just $3 bucks for a full length video. They also have other payment plans. Here is the one I created for my Kendra Clayton series!

Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.

Enjoy!

Can you believe it's September already? I can't. This year is flying by. Next week starts the beginning of fall quarter at the college I work for. After a nice quiet summer, I am sooo not ready for the rush of students and...ugh...helicopter parents! But then again I never am.



On Monday I turned in my second round of revisions for The Paris Secret. I think there will probably be another round or two of revisions before we get to the copy edits. Anyone who thinks ebooks aren't well edited...

Okay, I know technically summer isn't over yet. But since I've been MIA as far as blogging goes, I thought I'd report on what I've been doing since my last post.

1. Turned in my first round of revisions for The Paris Secret, which leads to the second thing I've been doing.

2. Waiting for my editor to send me my next round of revisions for The Paris Secret.

3. Wrote 40, 000 words ( so far) of an urban fantasy novel featuring a kick ass MALE protagonist, and having a little too much fun doing it!

Last Wednesday I got my editorial letter for The Paris Secret. When you take into consideration that my last book (Diva's Last Curtain Call) was released from Kimani Press in the summer of '07, and went through the editorial process several months before its release, then it's been almost four years since I've worked with an editor. And I'm not counting the one I hired to edit Schooled In Lies, because she was hired to do copy edits and not line editing. Now that I have a publisher and an ...
