103,000 Words and Counting: Parties and publishing

by Amanda Bedgood

The story of publishing my story

[Editor's note: Krista Richmond is the online engagement manager for United Way of Acadiana and the author of the recently published novel Spotlight. Join us each Monday for a glimpse at her journey from the first draft to the bookshelf and read the story behind the story. Spotlight's official release date was May 22.]

I've had a lot to celebrate this past week, and I want to thank you all for celebrating with me because now the fun is just beginning!

First of all, special thanks to all who came to POUR on Saturday night to celebrate Spotlight's release. It meant so much to me to see all of you there! (And check out pictures at the end of this post.)

If you haven't picked up your copy yet, here are a few places you can get it:

Barnes and Noble

Amazon

TWCS Publishing House

Kobo

iBooks

And if you have, I hope you'll leave a review - no matter what you think of it. Your thoughts not only help others decide whether or not to read it, but are also important to authors. It's been incredibly interesting to read what people have said about Spotlight so far!

And in the meantime, I'll be busy spreading the word about the book, scheduling some book signings and maybe just maybe working on a Spotlight follow-up.
