SUMMARY:Publishing: A Wild Ride—Book Signing and Chat with Shannon Delany\, Bestselling and Award-winning Author\, Ghostwriter and Book Coach
DESCRIPTION:In 2008 author Shannon Delany won the first-ever cell phone novel contest in the western world with her greatly abbreviated serial novel 13 to Life. Facing immediate interest from two Big Six publishers and a movie producer\, Shannon signed a contract with St. Martin’s Press (Macmillan) for a trilogy that quickly expanded into five books\, garnered more movie interest\, and was published in six languages. A contract for the Weather Witch series soon followed\, as well as invitations to multiple anthologies. Shannon and a friend saved a small publishing house from an untimely end\, publishing books for other authors. Most recently Shannon’s agent won back her rights and she has begun reworking and republishing her books the way she wants to\, allowing for the inclusion of certain artistic embellishments that further set her work apart. Shannon is also a ghostwriter and book coach for a highly respected international agency and loves answering questions about writing and publishing.    \nThe 13 to Life series: Small town romance\, love\, loss\, werewolves\, ghosts\, and teen drama of all sorts. After the sudden loss of her mother\, all Jessie Gillmansen wants is to avoid any more change. But with the arrival of a strange new family in town\, the mysterious wolf attacks\, and deaths on the nearby train tracks\, it seems that avoiding change is not an option. \nThe Weather Witch series by Shannon Delany: In an alternate 1840s America\, stormpower and enslavement of the weather witches has taken the place of steampower. When Jordan Astraea is taken by the Wardens to serve out her life as the living battery of an airship\, and she’s quickly swept up in rebellion as the system built on so many people’s backs begins to break. \nBeastly Babes: Nine Classic Tales of Female Vampires by Shannon Delany: An anthology of classic works of well-known Victorian men revolving around female vampires\, and annotated by award-winning author Shannon Delany. If you’re the sort who always said you were going to read classic literature\, but didn’t\, this is the spooky gateway you’ve been waiting for.  \nPrompted to Write Workbook: 500 writing prompts of multiple genres and the space to explore each one with your own interpretation. Perfect for the aspiring author who wants to get into a writing habit but doesn’t always know where to start. \nA Wild Heart by Lore Blackwood: A spicy adult paranormal romance giving readers a glimpse at the first time characters in The Wolves of Greenbriar series meet\, nearly a decade before the action of Omega Heat. \nOmega Heat by Lore Blackwood: A spicy adult paranormal novel in which Sylva Waters’ eyes are first opened to a darker and stranger world when a one-night stand with the man who’s supposed to drive her to safety takes a strange turn\, and everything about her previously comfortable life begins to turn upside down. \nNot Boyfriend Material by Lore Blackwood: The spicy adult sequel to Omega Heat. Determined to make sure Sylva can protect herself\, Boots decides to demonstrate magic by taking her into the woods on a brief detour from their road trip.
