2016 in Review…

I’m a sucker for New Years Eve more than any other day of the year. I adore looking back and then assessing what the next year holds. Goal setting is one of my favorite (nerdy) activities. So…. I’d love to share with my friends, family and fantastical readers some of the great things that happened during 2017. Enjoy!!

* We moved from Amazon only to Wide in February
* Jacob got to quit his job as a school coach in May and join me
* We had our first author dinner in St. Louis
* We attended 2-3 signings to meet with fans
* We opened 3 new pen names – Jade Lewis, Jessica Mills and Logan Chase (Weston Parker)
* We hired Mary (huge win) and Jamie (another win!), who you’ll get to know soon

It’s been a crazy year… but everything we’ve done has just primed us for next year… well, some of us. Brent (my brother) and Jacob (the hubs) are giving me the look. LOL!!

We’re looking forward to next year… are you?
