2.) I went outside and cut down all of my front landscaping that died from our hard-freezes. It looks bare, but spring will be here soon. 😀

3.) My min-pin “Pimmie” likes to swallow treats whole, and I always have to give her tiny pieces to keep her from doing that… (which in the past, would then essentially have her get sick on my pillow) <— while I’m sleeping. So fun. 🙄 read more

And to celebrate this release, Christopher (as well as his publisher, Blue Box Press) are sponsoring today’s newsletter!

The author says:

I’m so thrilled that #SapphireSunset – my first gay romance novel – is almost before the world. To celebrate publication day this Tuesday March 1st I’ll be doing an Instagram Live with one of the publishers and one of my closest friends @sillyjillystein. I wrote this novel during the darkest days of the pandemic when I was desperate for a sunny, sexy, romantic and hopeful escape. The world still seems kind of messed up, to be frank, so I’m hoping the reading of it will be as delightfully transporting for you as the writing of it was for me. read more

Congratulations on publishing your book! Your book deserves to reach the right readers, spark curiosity, and leave a lasting impression. But with so many books competing for attention, how can you make yours stand out, attract potential readers, and encourage more people to discover your story? A captivating book trailer can help make that happen. Imagine turning your book into a short, engaging video that brings your story to life, highlights its most intriguing elements, and gives readers a reason to want to know more. A well-crafted book trailer can help increase your book’s visibility, build excitement, and encourage potential readers to explore it further. We help authors create professional book trailers designed to capture attention, generate interest, and connect their stories with the right audience. I’d love to show you a few examples and share how a book trailer could help showcase your book. Would you be open to seeing some examples?
