THE STARS FELL SIDEWAYS is OUT TODAY! YAY!
I'm so excited!
My book, THE STARS FELL SIDEWAYS, is finally available for everyone to read!
There's a post in me somewhere on my writing journey and how I chose to do things the way I did, but this is not the time for that. This is a time to celebrate and thank people and get all weepy and giddy and squee-y!
*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!*
To my family;
- Grandfathers, James and Anthony.
- Auntie Krissy.
- My brother Harold.
To Nicole Hornbaker-Langston, without whom I’d probably still be writing short stories and bad poetry.
Thank goodness for @KatZhang, @notveryalice, @JMRaneyWriter, @saphirablue84, and @Branli, without whom I would have gone berzerkers long ago!
And thank YOU, the readers, who have been bugging me about the queries and first pages I've been posting nearly everywhere in my quest for an agent and telling me that you can't wait to see my book for sale someday!
Well, there are now links at the bottom of this post and you can pick up your very own copy (and maybe one for a friend/library?) in both print and ebook form! Signed copies can be bought from thestarsfellsideways.com too!
I hope you enjoy it!
Summary:
Alison Arroway takes a lickin’ and keeps on tickin’. She has to, or she won’t get paid. Alison is a stunt double for pampered teen actress Pomegranate and when the director takes the shoot to Portugal, Alison is anything but thrilled to be rooming with Pom. But getting to hang around teen hearthrob Erik? Now that’s a plus.
Erik invites both girls on a sunset boat trip and Alison manages to have a decent time. Until the storm hits and the boat is shipwrecked on a small island, leaving Erik missing and the boat captain dead.
In the morning light, Alison and Pom find themselves on the lost island of Atlantis. Only one problem: now that the girls know the secret of the island, the Atlanteans don’t want them to leave. They're stuck with corsets, full-skirted dresses, and the strange steam-driven contraptions that are just a way of life for the islanders.
When a plot by the ruthless army Captain to take over the island and declare himself General over all emerges, an underground group promises to return the girls to the mainland if they can help stop him. They'll go through a mountain, literally, to find the Book of Blue, a book that will explain how to make ‘the stars fall sideways' in order to save the day and earn their freedom.
THE STARS FELL SIDEWAYS, a YA Steampunkish fantasy, OUT NOW (!) from MolliePup Press!
