Zibby Owens's Blog: Essay

Hi everyone! Thank you so much for following me here!! My new novel BLANK which comes out March 1st is now free as an e-book on Amazon for the month of February.

It was selected as an Amazon First Reads pick for contemporary fiction. Woo-hoo!

Please download BLANK and, if you enjoy it, please leave a review on Amazon and here on GoodReads.

Then, of course, go buy a hardcover or paperback too, so I can sign it. :-) You can meet me on the road at my 50+ stops on the Zibby-verse tour around the U.S. Go to zibbyowens.com to learn more!

THANK YOU! Hope you love it. I worked really hard on it.

Warmly,
