some more shameless self promotion

This weekend only, my new book is free on amazon kindle.

I generally do not beg for anything, least of all reviews for a self-published book. 

HOWEVER

my book is in the running for an Amazon award that could potentially result in a book deal with a major publisher. Which could potentially result in me not having to skip eating food every other day so I can pay my bills and feed my cats. 

In other news, Lil Bro#2 called me randomly last night whilst recording the new episode of his podcast. Just in case any of you didn't drop dead of boredom during the first podcast featuring Yours Truly, you can find the new one here. 

Follow it. Send them strange/bizarre/offensive/whatever emails. Please. 

another booooooooooook

I went home from the wedding. At least I managed to sit through the actual service. Lil Sis noticed my absence and sat with me in the bathroom until I felt I could sneak out of the building unnoticed.  Rest of the weekend was ok.

Some good news (I guess?): my YA novel is finally published. My agent quit ages ago, so I had to start the process of doing everything myself, but after getting in touch with multiple bands to get permission to use their lyrics, typesetting the whole book, and then typesetting it AGAIN because  

 also designing a cover, and then taking roughly 576753838 hours to come up with the blurb for the back of the book (which I think is rubbish, but I'd kind of given up at that point).

But anyway, This Broken Road is now available in paperback and as an e-book on Kindle. 

I may or may not update the website with links to sellers other than Amazon, but the site that hosts the Elk and Owl website (Webs.com, NEVER NEVER use them) has become my mortal enemy, so I might not bother. 

 There is also a Spotify playlist that is a sort of soundtrack for the book, with some good tunes. (If the link doesn't work, just search "This Broken Road - Angela's Playlist" in Spotify.)
