This or That? with Estevan Vega
In the world of authors, it’s all about standing out. Making a spot for yourself. To me, Estevan Vega has totally done that! He has this aura of coolness about him, that’s a bit hard to describe. I’ve reviewed one of his books, and am currently reading two more, and there is one thing that never changes. His awesome writing. It’s always there to pull you in and keep you reading. I think that in this particular game of This or That? Estevan totally shows that side of himself. He’s here to promote his newest sequel, Ashes, which you should definitely…

Courage, a guest post by Helen Laibach
Today I’m pleased to have Helen Laibach, author of A Soul Less Broken here on the blog. I recently finished reading her book and I have to say, it’s heartbreaking and empowering at the same time. Helen is here to share a look into the rape statistics that drive her book. Catherine’s situation is terrifying, and yet very real people face that every day. I’ll let her explain. I’ve heard it said that the definition of courage is “doing what you know is right even when you are afraid.” There are the obvious examples of people who display courage every day…

I literally cracked up laughing when I read this! This, this is summer at it’s best. Family vacations can either be the worst possible torture a parent can bestow upon their teenager or something fun to look forward to. Having been a bookworm and nerd my entire life, I loved those bizarre outings the parents took us on which would prove to be educational. Someone had proposed that we go visit…

Publication road, with Cheryl Rainfield
Cheryl Rainfield is on a blog tour to promote the paperback release of her popular book, Scars. She is a wonderful person, and an equally wonderful writer! I’m proud today to host a guest post she wrote about her road to publication. What I love about this is that she’s so honest. I’ll let Cheryl do the talking though. I tend to be shy and an introvert—though I’m getting better at being more comfortable around people—and since I’m also a survivor, there can be triggers for me. So some of my scariest moments have been when I had to put myself…
