Hello lovelies!

Yes, this isn't posted on Monday, I know. I'm going to be busy over the weekend, and I want to get this out now, so... yeah.

Due to the fact that my book is going to be available for purchase soon, I've decided to compile this little post in order to reveal a few things and explain!

First off, I want to thank everyone who has supported me and been excited for this release. I'm so excited to finally share Harper's story with you, and I really hope I don't let you down.

Before I get into any of the itty-bitty details and before the book releases, I just want to ask you to be honest. If you read it and you like it, let me know! If you didn't--say it nicely, but let me know (I'm pretty much an emotional squishy blob that is hiding beneath a robotic exoskeleton).

If you like the book, please, please share with friends! It means the world to me if you care enough to share it with someone else.

Anyways... here we go.

For constant updates, you can go check out my Instagram. I'm thinking about starting a YouTube Channel, but my parents are still pretty against me being public (even though if I want my book to be known, I have to expand my platform). ATM, I don't have a Twitter or a Tumblr or a Facebook or anything of that nature. For all my social medias, check out the Connect With Me page. Warning, I do pin a lot of random Tumblr stuff when I'm bored or stressed so... just, beware.

If you guys have any suggestions on what you think would be a good platform to join, lemme know! I am trying to expand and market and stuff so... yeah. If you could follow me on any platform, what would it be?

Anyways, that was another tangent so sorry I kinda... yeah... my brain is just EVERYWHERE.

It will be released (hopefully) in two-or-so weeks. I will post on my Instagram when it's available for purchase, as well as a quick little "YOU CAN BUY IT" thing on here.
Along with the release posts, I will be doing a live stream on both Instagrams, my authorstagram (@the.real.olivia.ann) and my artstagram (@spacey.cactus).

Anyways! I will now do the cover reveal thing:

drumroll...



I love it! It's so dark and it fits the story so well! I assisted in the design, however they found the picture and manipulated it.

So yea, this isn't my usual post. But I am an author and as much as it kills me (it's really awkward when I have to promote myself and my work) I have to do stuff like this when I write and publish bc otherwise no one will see it. But yeah.

For more information on it, check out the My Books page--you'll find the back cover blurb, the release date (if there is one decided upon) and the cover, as well as where you can buy it.

I hope you're as excited as I am, and I hope I don't let you down with the story!

      AH THANK YOU SO MUCH! It's nice to not be the only one excited about this. I mean, others are, but they're very non-verbal. I'm so glad you are excited and I'm so glad I've been able to share this journey with you and I just can't wait for you to read it!

The Snake and The Wolf

This is a poem that I wrote for two of my characters in my series. They are technically the villains, but I loved them too much to not share this. Originally, I wrote it for my creative writing class, but it will appear in the third book of my series. Upon a rocky ocean cliff, A black wolf was chained That lifted her large black muzzle To drink while it rained On the sandy shores far below Her anguished cries were heard By a troubled, dangerous snake Who her pained cries had stirred He slithered up that steep, sharp cliff Till he wished to fall off But when he made it to the top He saw the black beast cough She was sickly and broken down Her ribs showed through her skin And scars marred that lovely face That was now so very thin She could not fight or run or howl For those who had chained her Had left her defenseless Bound in chains that tore her fur She was not dangerous to him And the little snake saw So he untied the t...

August Wrap Up

Hello Lovelies! Sorry this didn't come out on Monday, I had a back-to-school thing and then I went to the zoo with my friend. So, this was going to be a different topic and then I looked at my calendar and realized it was the last day of August. So you will get it next week. Either way, let's get started! Life • Bullet Journaling. I mentioned this in my July wrap-up. I tried it out for all of July and the beginning of August, but I just couldn't do it. I became very busy with my book, school preparations, and other stuff. I kinda just forgot about it. • I began a regular work out regimen. Now, being a writer, I spend most of my time on the computer. When I was little, I was incredibly active. And when I was incredibly active, I was very healthy (despite being allergic to the entire world). So I started a workout modeled after The Arrow. I found it on Nerd Fitness, a website with fandom-themed workouts. This is the one I took inspiration from. I didn'...

Super Secret-But-Not-Really-Cuz-I-Kinda-Already-Mentioned-It-Earlier Special Book Announcement!

Okay, so it wasn't released at 1. I'm just so excited I bumped up the time! I am so excited to announce this, because it's something that's taken up my life that past two or so years. Well, let me fix that wording. I've been working on this 8th rewrite of it for two years. I came up with the original idea back in 2011. I cranked this thing out when I had a dream that turned into my plot (with a few additions and changes, of course), and I instantly went through and kept editing it. Now, on the eleventh draft, I've finally decided that I am going to publish it. Self-publish, that is. *deep breath* *pterodactyl screech* YES FRIENDS, I AM SELF-PUBLISHING MY BOOK. I cannot tell you how excited I am. Now, I know I said I'm looking for an agent, but honestly, none of them wanted it. They said "while this is interesting, I don't think it's right for my agency right now." All I can say is this: I've talked to so many people...
