Blood Red Sky

I watched the blood red sky fade into darkness. I needed to catch my breath; I didn’t want to lose my head. I was standing there, stuck, staring hopelessly at what once was a magnificent city with beautifully designed buildings that would never be seen again. Ashes fluttered down like snow, as everything around me crumbled beyond repair. The world as I knew it was gone.

Throw Back Thursday! In honor of my failed attempt at Camp NaNoWriMo, right before my book publication. This is the book I started to work on, but didn’t get very far. My head was still too wrapped up in the Rain story-line, and I have been pretty busy with getting everything ready. This one will be finished, but first I’m going to get Rain out of my system, so I can give it the attention it deserves. This is the opening paragraph of the novel.

Camp NaNoWriMo!

logo-6ee0b6e5e6f4e75cb1084236f7e3a294In about 39 days, I am publishing my first novel! WOW! That is pretty crazy and intense, so naturally I decided to sign up for the Camp NaNoWriMo event beginning April 1st, 2014. That means while I’m frantically getting ready to publish my novel, I will be frantically writing another book. Good thing I do well under pressure. This will give me a chance to work on Blood Red Sky, a story that I have written the first chapter to, and have wanted to continue for some time now. I am extremely excited! You can even add Blood Red Sky on Goodreads!

Blood Red Sky Synopsis:

Kaylie couldn’t wait to turn 18, so she could be an adult and do whatever she wanted. Now all she wants is to go back in time and be with her family and live by their rules.

The world around her is engulfed in blood and fire, an image she would never forget even if it ceased to exist. With another life to protect, she has to fight for them both to survive in a world that now has no rules.
