Welcome to A Journey of Books Blog Fest 2011!!!

Hello, my name is Felicia Rogers, and I’m an author. Or so they tell me. About two years ago, after reading book upon book, I decided that perhaps I could write my own. My original plan was to write a historical romance novel. My focus was going to be on Scotland, because I hate to admit it but I have a thing for kilts. :D   I love plaid.

 

While sitting around the table one day, I had an idea for a story. It all started with a girl and an ugly truck. High school contains so many pressures and one of those is always getting the right girl and driving the best car. My idea was to have a “hot” guy with an ugly car. And the story flowed from there.

After my plotting session at the family table, I realized I wanted to do a YA paranormal story. But not with vampires and werewolves but something completely different. Paranormal with a mystery, something that would be completely unexpected. And so, The Key was created.

My family and I began to go on long hikes in the woods around our local area and this brought inspiration. The story is infused with hints of dark woods, for example: She was turning around and around in a dark wood, when she heard it. The growl, the snarl, the flap of wings, the creature landed in front of her and she took off running.

The branches smacked her in the face, opening her skin. She was wearing a long flowing white dress that billowed behind her with every step she took. The tree limbs snagged her dress as she raced to get away.

She could feel the hot putrid breath as the beast drew closer and closer. She looked behind her to see her pursuer, and screamed. The horror of its dark form terrifying…

Thanks for stoping by my post in Blog Fest 2011.

I always have my eyes open for a good new-to-me writer, on Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, or the internet in general. And blog hops are great ways to find them, too.

I pretty much find a lot of books through other bloggers. What they get in their mail boxes that week, or through authors asking me to check out their books. I pretty much love anything young adult paranormal, supernatural, fantasy. But I read a little bit of everything.
Thank you for your giveaway. Even if I don't win I will have to check out your book.

I've been lucky that most books I get now are given to me free since I'm a reviewer for Paranormal Romance Guild. Before that I found most of my books on the Amazon boards. Your book sounds great.

I have the authors that I read, and I go to the blogs checking out the reviews to find the new books. I find so many, my poor TBR list is overstacked.
