In celebration of the launch of The Other Side on the 13th of November, I have created a Giveaway on Rafflecopter:
And because I have done so little marketing for The Elphite and I’m feeling happy, I have created a Giveaway on Goodreads too!
Giveaway ends December 01, 2013.
See the giveaway details at Goodreads.
Good Luck! And please share these giveaways with your friends!
Apologies for the lack of posts, I have literally been so busy I have not stopped! I have been mainly working on the final copy of The Other Side and party planning. Post-party (which will have its own blog soon!) I am now back to my publishing projects and getting my books published. I know I keep pushing the release date back, I blame it on Mercury being in retrograde… The release date for The Other Side and for the new editions of The Earth Angel Training Academy and The Earth Angel Awakening is now set as the 13th November 2013.
The final covers are now done, thanks to Jason Mordecai of Dark Horizons Media and Liz Gordon of madapple designs. Without further ado, here they are:
On my Facebook page I have been posting images with quotes on them, mainly from The Earth Angel Training Academy, The Earth Angel Awakening, The Elphite and my new (as yet unpublished) book, The Other Side.
I have posted them all here on my blog so that anyone who isn’t on Facebook can see them. You can see them here (or click on the link in the menu above)
This is one of my favourites so far, and from the way it’s gone viral on Facebook, it would seem to be a popular one with everyone else too. If you like my page on Facebook, you will get updated when I post these pictures and when I post my Oracle Readings on youtube. Please feel free to share these pictures with friends.
In case you missed it earlier, here is Velvet’s advice for today, which was quite appropriate given it is the 4th of July!

What a great day! Woke up this morning with no clue what to call my new book, or any idea whatsoever of what to put on the cover of it.
With a meeting scheduled with my cover designer, Jason Mordecai, at 11.30am, this was a slight problem!
Over a cup of tea with a friend, we did a little brainstorming and by the end of it, not only did we have a title, but we had a very cool concept for the graphics too.
So I set off to my meeting with Jason, feeling quite excited about the new ideas. I got there a little late (I have yet to travel around Cardiff and not get lost!) but we set to work, and before I knew it, it was 3pm! But by then we not only had the rough design for the new book, but we had tweaked and perfected the designs he had created for two of my other books.
I decided this year to have the covers of The Earth Angel Training Academy and The Earth Angel Awakening redesigned before the release of the third book in the series. Jason did the initial designs a few months ago, but I have been keeping them to myself for the launch this summer. I really think they are amazing, and I cannot wait to reveal them to everyone!
I have decided to reveal the name of the new book, literally only thought of this morning, and it is: (imagine drumroll here)
The Other Side of The Earth Angel Training Academy.
I know it seems like a very long title, but the official title will be The Other Side, the rest is a subtitle. Explanation needed? Okay, here goes:
Originally, the third book in the series was going to be the same story as The Earth Angel Training Academy, but told from the point of view of the Golden Age Children. This was because though they are mentioned in the story, they do not have much of a voice. So the working title all along was The Children of the Golden Age. But, as anyone who knows me will know, I do not plot my books, and often have very little say over what comes out when I start writing. Though in this new book, the stories of the Children will be told, they are not the main feature. Quite quickly, as I started writing, I realised that the male characters of the story (all of whom are secondary characters in the first book) were speaking up. They wanted their stories told and they refused to be quiet! It has been very interesting to see their side of the story, and I must admit, once I gave up fighting them (I wanted the Children and Aria to be the main characters!) the story began to flow and it has brought some interesting revelations…
So, it is literally the other side of the story. It is the story of the male characters, and also the Children. It is all of the stories that I did not get to discover and write about in the first book. Though just to be clear, because I don’t want to disappoint anyone, no, the Leprechaun incident it still not spoke about in any detail!
Perhaps it will be in the next book in the series…
