Cover Art
I just received a mock-up for my Escapement cover. It is FABULOUS!! I’m so excited to share it with you, but I’m not going to. He he. Sorry, you’ll have to wait a bit longer. An early release is set for Kindle on February 25th. It looks like that will be happening. Yay! 
Editing
I’m working diligently on edits for Escapement. I’ve learned one VALUABLE lesson during this project. NEVER switch form Hero/Heroine 3rd person to 1st heroine. OMG, talk about a nightmare. Oh well, it’ll all be done right in the end.
Did you notice? I posted all three days this week. Hey, that is news. LOL
DINYB Recap
On Wednesday I highlighted a Steampunk novel, The Lazarus Machine by Paul Crilley. I’m afraid he did not find his book. 
Oh well, maybe next time. I think I’m going to give the book a try, though.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. Have any big plans? Are you keeping up with those New Year goals? Am I a big meanie for not sharing the new cover? Just checking to see if you are paying attention.
I completely understand your woes on switching POV. Happy Friday!
Can’t wait to see the cover! And I can’t imagine switching point of view like that.
Congratulations to Tara!
Congrats to Tara–great way to end a week.
And nicely done with the 3 posts as it sounds like you are wearing many writing hats over there.
Enjoy your weekend Ciara.
Ugh. I once tried going from past tense to present tense with a ms, and it got so confusing…I finally had to go back and change everything to the way it was. Won’t try that again.
Don’t tease us! LOL
Wow. Changing POV. I bet you ARE pulling your hair out.
But if it’s what the story needs…
Congratulations on Escapement! I can’t wait to see the cover. Have a great weekend!
Switching from 3rd to 1st pov must be a nightmare! Couldn’t imagine going through it, lol.
Happy Friday, Ciara! Can’t wait for your reveal. The p.o.v. thing sounds a nightmare. It must be hard to make sure you change every little thing.
You’re such a tease!
Ugh. Switching POV from 3rd to 1st in something that long would be excrutiating. Hope you come out of it with all your marbles.
Congrats to Tara!
I am going to be preparing for my e-book launch this weekend (it’s on Tuesday) two friends and a daughter coming to spend it with me, so it’s going to be a happy time! Oh and I have book club too!! Enjoy yours WBFF!!
Gee… I thought I would get to see the fantastic new cover… YOUR last one was OUTRAGEOUS!!!!
Guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer…. Frowns.
I’m looking forward to seeing your cover Ciara. And congratulations Tara.
Ooooh, can’t wait to see the cover. I switched from third to first for a short story once and thought I’d lose it…can’t imagine doing a longer piece. Good luck with edits!
Yes, you’re a big meanie
And with what mean bone in your body would that be? It’s a great hook to keep us coming back!
Happy Weekend!
That’s my second tease in a row. What’s with you girls today?
Congrats on the book cover! =) Can’t wait to see it.
Switching POV can be a nightmare in revisions. Good luck and I look forward to seeing your new cover.
Congratulations on your cover! I’m looking forward to its reveal.
Good luck with your editing.
I can’t wait to see your cover. I know it’s going to be awesome.
Talking about POV Summer’s Song went from third to first–yes-crazy–but so glad I did it. Congrats, Tara! Looking forward to getting you a copy.
Oh exciting! Congrats!
I’ve gone from 3rd to 1st in a story revamp before and it was a HUGE task, but turned out way better than it was. But then, I also went from adult to YA, so a lot of rewriting had to be done. Ugh.
Oooh I’m so excited to see your new cover.
Congrats, Tara!
All my books have been in 3rd, but I notice most YA is now in 1st. I wonder if the switch was your idea or the editor’s, and I live in fear if my book ever sells I’ll have to change it like you did. Eek! lol
Well you are a tease! I really like the Weighted cover.
How exciting! (The new cover, not the editing). Good luck to you and Congratulations to Tara!
I can’t wait to see the book cover! I’m sure it will be amazing. I also like Hildie’s book. It looks great at an angle like that.
I can imagine changing POV in the editing process would be rather tedious to say the least. Can’t wait to see the cover! it’s coming out in less than a month…that is so soon!
