May News!

I'm so excited about the release of my first Indie, The Cupcake Coven! I hope a lot of you will check it out. Join us for the Facebook Party the evening of May 5th at 7 p.m. (facebook.com/AuthorAshlynChase) You may see snippets from early reviews and cupcake recipes! If you have one you'd like to share, please bring it.

I won't be doing the usual blog tour, but I did agree to blog for a few friends, and I have a couple of group blogs I post to monthly. Here are those dates:

Delilah Devlin's blog May 7th (Done)
Cover Reveals and Naughty Author Chicks May 10th
Cover Reveals
naughtyauthorchicks.blogspot.com 

Rocco's blog May 23rd, catsbooksmorecats.blogspot.com
The Casablancca Authors blog May 24th. casablancaauthors.blogspot.com

If you noticed a big gap in there, it's because I'll be attending RT--the big romance reader/writer/industry convention in New Orleans. Here's a link to the event. https://www.rtconvention.com/

The giant book fair is open to the public, so if you're not able to go to the convention, you could still meet me in New Orleans at the book signing. https://www.rtconvention.com/giant-book-fair Thank goodness they have us seated in alphabetical order or you'd never find me. There will be hundreds of authors at the fair!

So, it'll be a busy month, but a good one. I hope you have a great May too! 

April News

I'm gearing up for May--that's my April news. LOL
Okay, so I have a couple of guest blogs in April and those are Casablancaauthors.blogspot.com on 4/9 and NaughtyAuthorChicks.blogspot.com on 4/12. I hope you'll stop by.

Actually, May is a huge month and there's lots to do in preparation. My first Indie book is coming out May 5th, and guess what? In order to self-publish this and (hopefully) many more books this way, I became a company! Imagination Unlimited LLC, to be exact.  

So, I'm opening bank accounts, applying for credit cards, opening a PayPal business account, etc. It's like starting over with a whole new identity.

Also in May, I'll be attending the big romance reader/writer/industry convention in New Orleans. Here's a link to the event. https://www.rtconvention.com/

The giant book fair is open to the public, so if you're not able to go to the convention, you could still meet me in Nawlins at the book signing. https://www.rtconvention.com/giant-book-fair Thank goodness they have us seated in alphabetical order or you'd never find me. There will be hundreds of authors at the fair!
 

March news

Lots of news!
First: Flirting Under a Full Moon is now available in audiobook! I was listening to it as I pedaled my exercise bike today and thought, Hmmm. Not bad. (That means it's pretty darn good. Authors are usually insecure masochists who flog themselves harder than any reviewer could. At least this one is.)
How to Date a Dragon will be released in audiobook March 18th.

Now, getting to the majority of my March schedule...
I have a new release coming out March 4th! Woo Hooooo! Kissing with Fangs, book 3 in the Flirting with Fangs series, releases that day. Yes, there will be a ticker tape parade.

On March 6th the blog tour begins. It's a little different this time.
Bloggers will be posting at least 1 scene (in chronological order) at each blog stop, so those who follow the tour will get to read the first two chapters, free! There will be a great prize at each stop for a randomly chosen commenter. The entire series!

Here’s the schedule:

November news

I've been writing up a storm this month and finished book 1 in a new series, and I'm currently 1/3 of the way through book 2. I'm very excited to tell you The Cupcake Coven will be my first self-published effort, and I'm enlisting my agent's help to navigate the left-brain duties--editing, formatting, keeping track of sales, etc.

I've also hired an awesome graphic artist to illustrate the covers. My readers were begging for more covers like my Strange Neighbors series. I adored those covers too, but the powers-that-be said 'no' and did something they thought was better. Maybe rippled muscles sell books. I guess they do, but I hope my writing style and stories inside the pages will keep readers coming back. :)

Now--I should have posted this before, but what can I say? I had forgotten it was my turns to blog today. I've worked up a little something and it's posted here: http://casablancaauthors.blogspot.com/2013/11/thank-you-to-books.html

If you're interested in what I was like as a kid, a teen, a young adult, etc. check out what I was reading at those times in my life.

I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving if you live in the USA, or reflect on the good things in your lives no matter where you live.
