Hi all! As 32 Seconds reaches the latest completion stages, I wanted to share with you the official book blurb. I’ll confirm on this platform the official release date, which I’m not sure about as of yet. *** 32 Seconds by Johanna K. Pitcairn To the average onlooker, the city of Los Angeles represents glitz,…
And here we go! Julie Jones makes an appearance on this blog today (because as you know 32 Seconds is coming out this November ooooooooooooooh yeah!). And the book is looking better than ever! Without further ado, please welcome Julie Jones! *** As the players scattered, my eyes followed Dan. He grabbed a Gatorade from…
Drumroll, please! And Julie Jones is here to give you an excerpt of her upcoming story, 32 Seconds. Hope the week isn’t treating you badly – after all it’s only Tuesday – which means that the crap can hit the fan anytime now. It’s alright, we’ll stay positive, right Julie? At least, we’ll try. ***…
Strolling yesterday among book shelves at Barnes & Nobles (always wondered why people hang out in bookstores but not in libraries), I told myself the day 32 Seconds comes out, I’m taking the place hostage until they kick me out. And if I don’t have the guts to take the place hostage, I’m dumping my book…

Freedom. I read blogs and laugh, cry, smile, read more like I’m drinking your words and I love it so much, it hurts. To all the writers out there, thank you for giving me this sense of elation I need on a daily basis. You’re my spiritual foundation, my fountain of youth, my elixir, my…

Alright, let’s play! This morning I kept thinking of a good topic for a blog post. Gotta keep things fresh around here. And my wandering thoughts took me to tantalize: torment or tease (someone) with the sight or promise of something that is unobtainable. Aha! How unobtainable is my idea of success as a writer? …

Retweet all day long links to my blog posts, and DM authors and people in general whom I found interesting, create some tweepships (friendships on Twitter should be called tweepships) and go from there. It took me a good six…
