I've waited an entire lifetime to write this one sentence: 
My novel will be published.

One thing I've learned is that everyone's path is different, and there's not one yellow brick road that will lead you to the successful land of Oz.
It's been five years and just as many novels, but it's finally happening. I can hardly believe it. There have been lots of ups and downs and endless hours of researching, plotting, writing, and revising.

No amount of magic will bleed words on a page or make anything about the publishing journey any easier. The only key to success in anything is persistence. When you feel like giving up, try again and harder. Never accept no for an answer. There is always a way where there is a will. 

When I was a girl, I read and reread
Little Women and swore I'd grow up to be just like Jo. I wanted to birth books, and now I'm finally living that dream. For one of my novels to no longer be buried in some forgotten computer file but grace the pages of something people can read is both thrilling and terrifying. 

I'm beyond excited to begin this new journey and am thankful for all the wonderful friends I've made along the way. I'm blessed to have been encouraged and supported by many lovely writers and readers. If you've read my work, listened to me talk books, and/or endured my writer's crazy, thank you. Truly. 

FABLED, a YA novel inspired by several original Grimm fairy tales, will be published May 2015. 

Stay tuned. It's going to be a crazy ride.
