State of Sara – 8/30/14

Posted on by

It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. ~ Isaac Asimov

Change seems to be the theme of my 2014. Which isn’t a bad thing. But it’s not entirely all good either, as there have been some changes that are beyond my control that have happened this year. But change means adapting and evolving. I’m willing to do it. Others…not so much.

Every August I set my goals for the coming year. I had those goals set, but those changes I was talking about have caused me to revise those goals. In fact, I tore up those goals and trashed them. It’s a brand new day in my world. And some exciting changes are afoot.

Next month, September 17th to be exact, will see the release of the very last Geek Kink series book. Glad You Came has been in my head for a long time, so I’m excited to see it unleashed in the wild. And since the first book of the series, I’ve been asked if Dade will ever get his HEA. He’s so special, I gave him two! 😀

As for after September, it’s that brand new day I mentioned. Glad You Came is my last contracted book. Which simply means my schedule is mine to make of it what I will because I don’t have anything due to anyone at a specific time. But I do have a plan! I’m not quite ready to make an official announcement just yet, still have some pieces of the puzzle to get into place, but hopefully soon.

 

State of Sara – 2013 Year End

Posted on by

2013 has been relatively quiet for me, at least author-wise. The early part of the year saw the releases of Taking Over Me, Her Master’s Collar and Rock Your Soul. I should have had one more release in 2013, however, some communications snafus (interwebs, stop eating my editor’s email!) pushed that release back to early 2014. So, that just means 2014 will start off quite nicely with the releases of Break Me In, Edge of Need and Glad You Came.

For those interested, edits for those books are ramping up – I just turned in a round of edits for Break Me In. I always love this process because it’s taking an already fabulous story and adding even more shine to it. Edge of Need is up on the editing block next and I can not wait to dig back into this one since it’s been at least May since I last saw it. While I’m waiting, I’m digging back into the fast draft I wrote back in October for Glad You Came and starting to see what I have to work with.

I’m happy to report I successfully completed NaNoWriMo this year! I chose to work on a sooper sekrit project for the month of November and it came out fantastic. While I’m not ready to say too much because there are things still happening behind the scenes, it is a contemporary erotic BDSM romance. I loved the characters, the setting, the story and let’s not forget about the hot sexy action! And I’m hoping this will be the start of a new series for me with the Geek Kink series drawing to a close. Many of secondary characters in this new project I want to get my teeth into and find out their stories too. 🙂

Hopefully 2014 is going the be the year of some changes for me on the writing front. The first of which is the announcement that I’m closing the blog section of my website. Simply so I can have more time to focus on my writing as the time I spend writing/doing authorly things grows. I’ll be switching gears over to my author Facebook page and will be doing a lot of the same things I do right here on the blog normally. If you haven’t already, head on over and like the page so you’ll be able to keep up with all the chaos! https://www.facebook.com/authorsarabrookes

As 2013 draws to a close, I want to thank everyone who has ever taken the time to read one of my books. Whether or not you enjoy it, the fact you spent a few hours with something I created warms my heart and soul. I appreciate such things more than you can ever know.
