New Years Wishes!



It is that time of year when everyone is talking about New Year's resolutions. Many people try to give up things for this. They try to lose weight, quit smoking, or a number of things. For me, my goals are to gain things. My goal is to finish my books, finish my schooling, and build a happy year with my family. I plan to also build up my savings so I can do more. I look forward to going to conventions and meeting new readers. Most of all, my goal is to be happy.


I love all of you out there who support me and my work. It means the world to me. I wish all of you the Best New Years ever. Yesterday is gone; all we have promised is today. Make each day your best day.

Souls of Samhain Release on Halloween!


Souls of Samhain

Wheel of the Year Volume 2

I had the honor of being a part of this project for the last edition, and wanted to show my support for their new book! The ladies of this anthology.

Synopsis


Oh, fear not the dark. For it is what lies inside you should be frightened of.


Take a peek into world of mystery, terror, and all things spooky. Within these pages, you will find the realm of the unexplained. These tales are sure to make you quake with dread and beg for your blanket. From curses, to secrets, love, family and betrayal; come venture into a legend or two beyond living conceptions. Let our stories bring to light what hides in the shadows.
Samhain, also known as the Feast of the Dead, is said to be the day where the veil between this world and the next is at its thinnest. During this time, the two worlds are better able to see one another, and the ghost of the past can communicate with those still among the living. For each pagan holiday, there will be a corresponding volume in the Wheel of the Year Anthology.

Stories Included-
Buried Secret- Taylor Lexus Brown
Graveyard Girl- Ashley Nicole Davis
Sing Me to Sleep- Tara Ann Moore
Our Sins Speak to Us- Taylor Lexus Brown
The Girl with the Beautiful Eyes- Ashley Nicole Davis

What is Coming up for Cherron Riser!

Upcoming News!


It has been a long summer, and I know I have not been around much. I wanted to take some time to give everyone an update on what is happening next. Now that I have signed with Mother Spider Publications, I am going fully Young Adult with this pen name. I have also started up another pen name for my more adult writing. 

With this, also, comes some exciting plans for the future! Defying Destiny will be pulled soon and will be republished under Mother Spider. I am excited to see how that turns out, and there may be some changes to the original book. I will keep everyone posted on how that goes.

I have also begun work on the first book of a series I have planned out. The series title is Project Utopia and the first book will be Flawed System. I am working really hard to get this book finished and ready for publication and look forward to introducing everyone to this world. It is a futuristic world filled with chaos. Robots are part of every day life, and the internet is implanted in everyone's brain. The world now functions under one Global Government after many years of war and devastation. In Project Utopia you will be following Seth Boniface, a young teen from the lowest levels of society, fighting to protect his family and find peace. As of now three sets of trilogies have been planned for Project Utopia.

I have a short story to help set the mood which I plan to make available soon, so stay posted for that. I also hope to put out information on the characters and character bios. In the coming months, a new page will be added for Project Utopia which will include those character bios and other fun things. I am so excited for this project and can not wait to share it with all of you.


Along with Project Utopia, I plan to continue working on my Sweet Romances and other stand alone books. People who were fans of my paranormal stories about Jax and Jericho will find that I plan to rework them in my new adult pen name, Alexis N. Shade. I will post updates there for all of my more adult writing.

I would also like to take a moment to thank everyone for all of your love and support over the last year. It has been a wild first year doing what I love, and I look forward to many, many more!

Blurb


Black magic is rife in Ferntree Falls… So are love, revenge, friendship and betrayal. Alexandria will taste them all. For hundreds of years, the Harvey Witches have lived in Ferntree Falls. For the past twelve years, an evil witch has been plotting to destroy them all in a bid to claim their magic for herself. When black magic threatens to destroy their little town, and those they love, the Harvey witches, with the help of a mismatched host of friends, vow to save Ferntree Falls from evil, and in time, restore Witchwood Estate to its former glory. Mindy and Aradia, Alexandria's quirky aunts. Kat, Alexandria’s headstrong cousin. Andrew, a boy cursed to walk the night as he searches for his missing girlfriend. Nina, a feisty hybrid vampire with a bag full of secrets. River, a shape shifting wolf, and Bran, a vampire, both vying for the love of the same girl.

Patti Robert's Bio


Standalone novel - "About Three Authors" - Whoever said love was easy? - A contemporary romance/drama released December 2014. I hope you check it out sometime.

So... Another big year ahead for me. 2015 - New book release - book 5 in the Witchwood series - Witches Bitches. And also another installment in the very popular Paradox series titled Elemental is due out by December 2015. I'm also working on a project very close to my heart, Surviving Tracy. Surviving Tracy is a book based on the actual events of Cyclone Tracy, the most devastating cyclone in Australia's history. The book will contain actual stories and pictures from survivors, and is due out December 2015 (41 years after that horrific Christmas Eve in Darwin). Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/groups/767108403372812/

PATTI ROBERTS was born in Brisbane, Australia, but soon moved to Darwin in the Northern Territory with her parents and two sisters. Her son Luke was born in Darwin in 1980. Although Patti now lives in Cairns, Queensland, she still considers Darwin her hometown. 

When Patti is not writing, she is busy pursuing her other passion, which is designing book covers for other authors. It is her wish to one day own and operate a writers retreat in FNQ Australia.

On Sale for a Limited time!

To celebrate the graduation season, I am putting Defying Destiny on sale for only 99 cents! That is right! If you haven't had a chance to read it, pick it up now. The sale will only last through the end of May so don't miss out on your chance to get Defying Destiny at this wonderful sale price!



Review Inconsistent by Alex Akre

At first I did not know what to think of this book. It is not the normal type of book I read, but the unique writing style Akre uses kept me intrigued, so I continued to read. The story was emotional and intelligent, about a girl named Meadow formally known as Macy, and her friendship with a boy named Dante. They are in their senior year of high school dealing with problems most adults don't have to face.


To me the story read like a mix of a Diary and a John Green novel, and was just as touching. There were times I became a bit lost in the story and I am not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing. The author, herself, is very young and I am very impressed at what she has been able to create and put across to the reader. The story makes you laugh, cry, and think about things in a very different way. It does need another run through with an editor, but still very compelling.

Next for Not That Simple

I know many of you have been wondering what is coming next for Not That Simple. It has been several weeks since I have made a post to add to the story.  However, the characters have been speaking to me, and it has become apparent that their story will need to fall into a much bigger format.  Because of this, Jessie, Seth, Marris, and all of the other wonderful characters of the story will be joining the main books.  They will make an appearance in the next Jax and Jericho book coming out later this year.

While I know many of you will miss having the weekly post on Not That Simple, I look forward to sharing the characters and their story with you in a much more complete story arch. In the mean time, I will begin working on Bio's for all of the characters.  

As for filling the slot of a web story, I should have something new in the works soon. Stay tune for more!
