Hello, party people!
It's been a while since I've updated you guys on my/our writing. Over the past year things have been pretty interesting in terms of our Quadruple or Nothing series. We have the cover for the fourth book finished (just wanted to have that done despite not having finished the third book yet) and we shopped Two Pair around to some publishers. So here's where some pretty cool news comes in. We had a couple of publishers that were interested in taking in our book and we were actually on the last step of it being taken up but then was turned down because they wanted a bit more drama. Despite not getting it at that point it's something that still keeps our spirits lifted up when we think about getting our books professionally published. So that's where this blog comes in now. We received that news a year ago and I wanted to dive right in to start editing/re-working the book so that it can be picked up. But as many of you would probably guess, my last year of grad school was incredibly busy. Not just because of the work that needed to be done, finishing up my research assitantship, writing other books, and job searching, but because of working on my Master's project at the time. (Side note - I know I haven't talked about my last day in Australia, but all you need to know is that I was bumped up to first class on my flight from Australia back to LA and I made it home safely in time for the 4th of July). Now that I have more time and I've looked over Two Pair once more, I'm going back into re-editing it to send it back to publishers, of which the one who mentioned that they would've liked to take in our book but needed there to be a bit more drama would be glad for us to send it in again. I decided to start working on it now because of the changing of the seasons as well as it being a way to symbolize starting over. So be on the lookout for blog posts about update to the book and changes to chapters. Also, we're going to be updating/editing the theme to our site soon so be on the lookout for it. Have an amazing weekend!
