We are TWO months out from the release of "Reason to Return!" I've started my launch team, so if you see this and want to be a part of it -- click here to join the team: https://www.facebook.com/groups/15079...

Would love to have you! Please note that you "plan to read" my book on Goodreads so it starts popping up for people in the feed and in emails.

I'm so excited to get started and hope you are too!

Hi friends!

Just popping into say I received a positive review in Publishers Weekly for Reason to Return: Why Women Need the Church and the Church Needs Women!

We are 2-ish months out from launch and I'm starting to rev up the excitement. I'm going to have a launch team, though feeling a little overwhelmed. Please let me know if you'd like to join!

Here's the PW review: https://www.amazon.com/Reason-Return-...

Thanks for your support!

P.S, I started a writing coaching business at PitchandPublish.co if you are interested!

Hi there! So thanks to the supply chain issues, my publishing date has been moved to January 2023. It's all good just a long time to wait! But the book IS on Goodreads and can be marked "To Read" as early as...NOW.

I'm working on all kinds of fun marketing stuff and look forward to chatting more as we get closer to release date!

Hello friends!

The book is out on Goodreads & Amazon for pre-order! If you are reading this, please go to this link & mark it as "want to read":

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

The book was originally going to be published in September but because of supply chain issues and other books being pushed back, it will not be out in November!

More pre-marketing time for me, woo hoo! I am hoping there will be an Amazon link soon to pre-order.

Right now, I'm reading over the final galleys and then we'll be moving to finalize the actual book. In a few months, we'll send out early copies to "influencers" (terrible word!) and hope to get some good stuff out of that.

I've heard there's a ton of good opportunity on Goodreads so I've tried to expand my efforts here but it's slow moving! Every little bit from friends helps so spread the word!

Thank you so much!

Just a little update on the new book. We've decided on a title, but not ready to announce yet!

I got my structural edits back and am currently working on those! Pray for me :)

Right now, we are still thinking the book will release in late summer 2022.

If you are a Christian woman -- or know one! -- this is a book for you. Keep an eye out for more announcements as time goes on.

Check in with my other work at my website, ErickaAndersen.com!

Hi friends! I just wanted to share that yesterday I signed a book deal with NavPress for a summer 2022 release!

This book, as you might know, is targeted at Christian women and is related to the Church, the heart of God, knowing Him better & it weaves it much of my personal faith story as well.

I'd love to keep you updated on progress. If you are interested in occasional updates, please just sign up here: https://erickaandersen.lpages.co/my-n...

Exciting! I've been in negotiations for a book deal with a publisher for the past few weeks and we are ALMOST there with terms, etc.

If all goes well, I'll be signing a contract in the next week or so. Then I can reveal the publisher a little more about the book!

If you happen to see this, yay! I have no idea how to build up my following here. I only have 23 followers on this "blog" author account, so help a girl out!

I am looking forward to getting this next book out into the world in 2022!

I'm trying to make better use out of Goodreads so here I am! I have been working with my previous agent (from "Leaving Cloud 9") and he's been shopping the new book around.

There have been several bites and we are chatting with a couple of them. Tomorrow I have a meeting with a publisher to discuss a potential partnership -- so keep me in your prayers!

Two of three publishers interested are definitely ones I'd love to work with. I'm still waiting for beta reader feedback but anxious to work on some revision and get the process moving.

I don't have a ton of followers on here because I've used it very little in the past, but thanks to those of you who see this -- and thank you for your support!

I've just finished the first draft of my next book -- title TBA. This book is currently going through some beta-readers for feedback!

I have an agent who is shopping the proposal to publishers and at least one publisher who is already interested.

I'm learning a lot about Goodreads and realize I need to be updating the status of the book here more often.

If you'd like to stay up to speed on the book, keep an eye out and sign up here: https://mailchi.mp/097c6a2c01ae/churc...
