Tour Stop | The Mirror by Candace Bowser


Book Title: The Mirror
Author: Candace L. Bowser
Release Date: June 18, 2013
Genre: Paranormal Romance/Horror
Length: 280 Pages
Presented by: As You Wish Tours



Inside the Mind of the Author

Inside the mind of an author…now there is a truly terrifying, absolutely mystical, magical place filled with unspeakable horrors, love so deep it transcends time, and the simplicity of a child. What makes a writer tick? That is double edged question that many have pondered; for me it is a combination of things. Every author is different in how they formulate a story. Some have story boards where they write down all the ideas they have for the novel and then figure out how to weave it all together. Others create outlines with unbelievable details, and then there are authors like me who know the beginning, know how they want it to end, and what comes in the middle, well that is often left to be determined. My husband laughs a lot because my purse is a virtual cornucopia of left over characters, undeveloped plotlines, secret betrayals, and unparalleled horror scribbled on pieces of notepaper, napkins, and whatever else was available to write on, including checks! Inspiration can happen at any place at any time. It can be while watching some mindless television show or while picking up a few groceries. A novel I am working on now just popped into my head. Now, 190 pages later, Remy is part of larger picture where immortals of all kinds sought refuge in the New World and formed what later became New Orleans…with a twist of course. On some occasions, works are dream inspired but honestly I can say dreaming about characters happens more after they have been dancing around in my head for a while. Each author’s inspiration is different. It can be as simple as seeing a sweet kiss exchanged between an unknown elderly couple and wondering how their life might have unfolded or in the passing by of the butcher at the grocery store with is apron covered in blood and the tray full of freshly cut meat!

BLURB 

Adrianna Bristol stood before her grandmother's antique mirror and stared at the black velvet cloth covering it. She just couldn't believe her nana was gone. The mirror had hung in that exact same spot for the last twenty years, never once had it been moved from the alcove. Adrianna remembered the stern words of her grandmother when she was a child. Annabel Bristol had told her, "promise me Adrianna that you will never uncover the mirror. No matter what it may whisper to you, you must never remove the cover." Adrianna laid her hand against the cool velvet which covered the glass. As she walked away the mirror whispered to her, "you belong to me now. You belong to me." A four hundred year old curse has plagued the Bristol family since the 1600's. A curse born out of a love so rich and a betrayal so deep, that time itself has no power to stop it. Only Adrianna has the courage to find the truth behind the curse and set her family free. But will the Mirror release its darkest secrets?

Street Team Shout out with Jamie Gibson

Jamie Gibson


I am excited to be calling myself an Author!! I'm 26yrs. old with 3 children and have been writing for as long as I remember...this is my dream!!!

About Jamie's Book


Book Description:

Pregnancy is supposed to be a wonderful time; a special moment that will change your life forever. Sharing the love with your four- year -old, who can’t wait to be a big brother. Getting ready to bring the baby home, feeling those first fluttering’s, and loving your baby. But what happens when things start going wrong? When the doctors won’t listen, when your boyfriend’s indifferent?

Being put on bed rest then praying you can carry long enough to give birth to a healthy baby. And when you can’t take the pain from the contractions anymore, they tell you they won’t even try to save your little girl. How do you tell your little boy that he will never get to meet his baby sister? How do you get through the pain of both, the delivery and the heartache?

They say, “That which does not kill you makes you stronger,” but the phrase only works when it DOESN'T kill you….

Author Jamie Gibson tells the story of how her second pregnancy affected not only her life, but those around her. She describes the trying circumstances surrounding her family during her troubled pregnancy. And Jamie shows how a baby, that she was never able to hold, made her stronger to face the rest of her life.


My Review

Where do I even begin? I lost my daughter three weeks ago. She was a stillborn. I was gifted this book to read. At first I wasn't sure if I could read it due to the fact that I'm going through the same thing the author tells within her story. However, curiosity got the best of me and I began reading. I'm very glad that I did.

This is a raw true story of the pain a mother endured with the loss of her baby girl. She gives it to the reader and doesn't sugar coat, which I am happy with that. I felt her pain and wanted to cry out for her. At times I felt like I was right there beside her, watching the story unfold right in front of my eyes.

The book is very well written and can give a small view into the world a mother enters with the loss of a child. I recommend this book to everyone. This book can help give hope to the Momma's who are going through the same thing and can give people who haven't a small bit of what mothers are going through when they are faced with the loss of a child.

Street Team Shout Out with Melina Turner

Here we are with the third author of the day. Let's welcome....

Melina Turner


Hi I am Mel aka Melina Turner and live in Aussie with the rest of my family, in a little town called Gympie.

I began my writing at an extremely young age starting in primary school in year 3 when I heard about Write4Fun, a school writing competition. My first poem was called "Wild Brumbies" published in 2003 when I was in year 3. I soon after moved from Nambour to Gympie an hour away. Where I was influenced by an amazing English teacher to continue writing. 

In 2005 when I was in year 5 I was finally awarded Honoured Writer for my poetry in which I continued and still do. 


In 2013 I was awarded, Best Poet of 2012 and put into a poet book that is now in the library of Congress.

After I began poetry I soon wanted to branch out thus starting in 2003/5 The Deathly-Roses Vol 1 a flash-fiction prose piece that will be published 2013. I then gaped it out and wrote the 2nd Volume in 2007 to be published 2004. The third to be written this year. My goal with these books was to make it short and poetic-like to gain non-readers interest and I believe I have done that. TDR vol 1 will be made into a movie around 2016 by TMFilms a indie film maker.

As of then 2012 I slowly branched out and started helping co-author for Timothy Mitchell Films. Helping with scripts for movies.

As of now, I will be collaborating with authors and getting myself out there more. Writing all and any genre and different types of pieces.


As of 2013 I am starting to write my first ever novel called "GoodSpeed" that might be my best work, not counting poetry so far.

My dream is to publish and show people what I can do. My future career is to own a 2 story business where I can open my online store Melina's Treasure Dungeon (book store and library as well as have a restaurant/cafe/catering biz in the other story.


I would continue writing and also open Mel.T E my sweet and free little group that helps self-publishing authors with their work and self-publishing.

That is all. Thank you.



WHAT TO EXPECT FROM HER THIS YEAR:

2013:

TDR vol.1 (a flash fiction series) that came to me while reading manga and figuring out a word puzzle on roses. It is written in a way that a whole new type of writing genre is involved. A poetic story, as the writer sets the scene with a narrative prose poem form giving the piece the quick pace and loads of action. This piece was one of my first pieces as I wrote it in year 3, 2003. The Deathly-Roses Volume 1 is both for teens & adults with its genre being Dark Fiction and a drop of Paranormal.
The rights have been given for TDR1 to be made into movie 2016 by indie film-maker TMF.

TDR1 is the beginning of a young teen girls adventure to find not only her true family, her real family but who/what she really is. But Wisty (Wisteria Deathly-Rose) has yet to choose a side between good and evil and this time they're taking no chances....

What people are saying about TDR1?

- Entering the pages of "author Melina Turner's" first book, I didn't know what to expect.....I was quickly amazed by the complexities of the character's, the subject, the plot and overall storyline...The ease with which "Author Melina Turner" drew you into her book, keeps you focused and wanting more the further you read.....Her novel "Deathly Roses Volume 1" is a definite read, for anyone who loves the supernatural abilities of "I Am Number 4"......I love all the characters and the storyline they have the potential to continue on through a few more books. Making it a hit book series or anthology. Truly talented is "Author Melina Turner" and very well written is her book. I can't wait to read the next instalments to this series. What an excellent start to a terrifically magical series!!
Review: De Ann Townes Jr (author: "Peer Inside My Soul & See")

-REVIEW OF VOL 1&2:
There is an honest voice in Turner's writing evident in "The Deathly-Roses". Turner writes with wit and manages to keep the reader engaged over the course of the two volumes. The end with bonus volume 3 sneak peak (which could even serve as a prologue for volume 2) reminds me of the ending of "Mad Max", in the sense that the character has slowly sunken to depths of insanity that she now is ready to extract more violent horrors. Some descriptions are a little bad to visualise, but I guess that's part of its poetic beauty. The first person narration voice isn't narrating character's names in third person in the same chapter. Still, its only a small thing which readers will choose to ignore because of its engaging content. Definitely get into this series. Well craft and very well devised.
Review: Timothy David Mitchell
(movie maker of "The Waiting Game")

-"The Deathly-Roses" is an intriguing fragmented narrative that incorporates "memories" and "future" to delve into a story of mystery and dark humor. Melina Turner successfully develops a narrative that keeps the readers gripped and questioning the characters' motives and intentions. There's a lovely level of humor and a very real voice to be heard in this short story. What I found most impressive was Melina's ability to control her fragmented narrative, this is actually a great accomplishment for a young writer. She deliberately challenges the readers and breaks the traditional narrative structure, to create a well-crafted post-modernist piece of writing.
Review: BECKY JOHNSON

-The Deathly-Roses....the title itself would make me want to read the book. The first time Melina told me about this book's title I loved it! I set to read it and finished it rather quickly. I'd say this that I'm not a fan of this style of writing - prose poetry form, but I really liked the storyline. By the time I was done reading it made me anxious to find out what would happen next.....It's not very often that I'm inspired to sketch, but after reading the book I kept thinking about the title and ended up sketching...Any book that can inspire me to do anything is definitely a must have for me! Can't wait to see the next book and the anime!
Review: TEJASVINNI RAO
(author: The Curiosity Key)

-Melina Turner's "The Deathly-Roses" Volume 1, is a refreshing story well written story, with an excellent array of supernatural thought provoking concepts. The characters both serve as well written portrayals of angels, corrupt business tycoons and tragic misunderstood victims each with their own complex back stories and agendas. At the heart of the characters is the character of Wisty. A tortured young girl, drugged and forced to serve under a corrupted rich family and forced to marry a stranger against her will. Melina Turner does a great job at bringing the character of Wisty to life, as the feeling of sadness on Wisty is ultimately reflected upon the reader as well as the strength and courage Wisty gains upon learning of real purpose in life and her love and affection with the character Iriama, a mysterious stranger who shows sympathy towards Wisty. The story as a whole is edgy and well-driven, with a sense of humour in various areas. All in all a very well written story and I cannot wait for the next instalments in this exceptional series.
Review: ROBERT CHURCH

Also if TDR1 sells well. 2 months after its released I may talk to publisher about releasing TDR2 in 2013.

Tripping Me Up released early than anticipated! It’s currently available in kindle and nook, as well as any other format on Smashwords. The paperback will be out in a couple of weeks.

Blurb:
I may not have special powers, but sometimes I think I’m invisible. No one in my high school seems to notice me at all. When they finally do it’s because the popular Tripp Bauer accidently smacks me in the face with a wad of paper. Talk about humiliating. Only now he keeps talking to me. At first it was to apologize, and I figured once I forgave him he’d go away. But he doesn’t, and now my feelings for him are starting to grow. And that scares me. Guys like Tripp Bauer don’t fall for girls like me. Or do they?

Book Spotlight



Here's what this book is about: 
Seven years ago sexy Bree fled Devil's Peak, Alaska, disillusioned with her high school romance and with a baby in her belly. Now, she's back and seeing devilishly handsome Todd again challenges her carefully constructed plans for amicable co-parenting.
Todd's delight at Bree's return swiftly turns to disgust when he discovers her secret and he vows to keep her at arm's length. Upon discovering the context behind her secreting their child, he decides to give their daughter the love and stable family home he never knew. Despite her attraction to Todd, Bree has no interest in rekindling their relationship and is focused on settling into the town.
But the town and its match-making busy-bodies are not willing to allow the lovers to remain apart and test their resolve in a series of planned misadventures.
Bree is home for good but will she be home for love?
I had the chance to read this book and here is my review: 
Where to start with this one? The author created an amazing read that I very much enjoyed. I fell in love with this story and I'm so glad I decided to read it. The cover had me second guessing my decision because I'm not one for an overly romantic story. Since the title includes "contemporary romance" I gave it a try. I'm very happy that I did.

The plot runs smoothly and the characters are very loveable. Bree is the main character who moves back home to Alaska to be with her family and introduce her daughter, Amber to her father Todd. Todd has no idea of Amber's existence until Bree moves back home after six years. I love how Todd steps up to the plate and fathers Amber the best he can. The relationship that grows quickly between Amber and her father is very heartwarming.

Bree and Todd get's off to a rocky start after a morning of hurtful words are said. After reading this scene it showed me that each character has their own flaw and their not perfect, which I love. Although I guessed the ending, I very much enjoyed the read. There's a part of me that wishes it was a bit longer so I could see a bit more into their lives but every story that has a happy ending needs to end somewhere.

I strongly recommend this book to those who love a touch of love in their romances without it going overboard.

Release Event | Wicked Hunger by DelSheree Gladden


Book Title: Wicked Hunger
Series: SomeOne Wicked This Way Comes
Author: DelSheree Gladden
Release Date: July 9th
Genre: YA Urban Fantasy
Length: 95,000 words/240 pages
Publisher: GMTA Publishing LLC
Presented by: As You Wish Tours

SYNOPSIS

Vanessa and Zander Roth are good at lying. They have to be when they are hiding a deadly secret. Day after day, they struggle to rein in their uncontrollable hunger for pain and suffering in order to live normal lives. Things only get worse when Ivy Guerra appears with her pink-striped hair and secrets. The vicious hunger Ivy inspires is frightening, not to mention suspicious.

Vanessa’s instincts are rarely wrong, so when they tell her that Ivy’s appearance is a sign of bad things to come, she listens. She becomes determined to expose Ivy’s secrets. Vanessa tries to warn her brother, but Zander is too enamored with Ivy to pay attention to her conspiracy theories.

One of them is right about Ivy … but if they lose control of their hunger, it won’t matter who is right and who is wrong. One little slip, and they’ll all be dead.

EXCERPT

Chapter 2: The Rules

By the time I burst out of my last class and gather my books from my locker, I’m actively looking for Laney and her bizarre cousin, Ivy. I need some help, some indication of whether or not I’m going crazy, and I know just who to turn to. I need Zander. I know I shouldn’t get him involved. Zander has been through enough over the last few years. Everything that happened, it nearly broke him, and it scared me to death.

She shouldn’t be any risk to Zander. Whatever this curse is, it doesn’t work like that. We don’t share meals. Zander will know if my reaction to her is something above normal. Maybe I’m just getting too close to my sixteenth birthday, but it might be something else.

When Laney and Ivy come down the hall toward me, I force myself to put on a somewhat friendly appearance. It’s the best I can manage in the face of the reaction she elicits from me. I take my place next to Laney when they reach me. That puts Ivy on Laney’s other side, away from me. Even still, it isn’t much of a buffer. My hunger still gnaws at me, so I step a little further away.

“Hey,” Laney says, “Ivy and I wanted to go for ice cream. Wanna come?”

“Can’t. I’ve got a class to teach right after school today,” I remind her.

Laney purses her lips. “I can never remember what days you teach what.”

“If you tried coming to a class, maybe you’d remember.”

“Yeah, right. You just want me to come so you can laugh at me.”

“Everyone laughs at you, anyway,” Ketchups says as he catches up to us and slings his arm around my shoulder. Normally, I would throw it back off, but the comfort of having him next to me helps with my hunger.

Ketchup was obviously expecting my rebuff, and when it doesn’t happen he looks down at me with a frown. I try to avoid making eye contract. That’s not very easy when it comes to Ketchup. His jet black hair, baby blues, and general Superman-lookalike quality makes it hard not to stare. I meet his concerned eyes and he sees the turmoil raging inside of me.

“You okay?” he asks quietly.

No. But I can’t explain this to him. Ketchup is always there for me, no matter what, but he has no idea what is really behind my strange abilities and disconcerting mood swings. I shrug and look away, wishing Zander wasn’t right, wishing I could tell Ketchup everything.

“What do you teach?” Ivy asks, eyeing Ketchup.

“Hip hop and ballet,” I say, hoping it will distract her from Ketchup.

It does.

I watch as her eyes take in the surprise of me being in anyway rhythmically inclined. That’s the reaction I usually get. People who don’t know me well think I’m a moody, dark teenager. I’m really just trying not to kill them.

Tour Stop | Soul Awareness by Carol Murto

 

Book Title: Soul Awareness
Author: Carol Murto
Release Date: June 5, 2013
Genre: Spirituality, Healing, Alternative
Publisher: GMTA Publishing, LLC
Presented by: As You Wish Tours


Why mentors are important.

If you have the opportunity to connect with at least one mentor, it can be a gift beyond measure. In aligning with a mentor you can receive honest and objective feedback on your writing. You might not classify this person, or these people as mentors; you might instead call them your support. In either event, to pursue writing a book alone, although it can be done, is a lonely journey indeed.

With the right support you can learn things and receive guidance that not only move the project along, but also help you to craft your book into something more than what you could have done alone. We all need feedback and support, and any project, especially something that is going potentially be shared with many, many, other people, needs to speak to a larger audience and your story or message needs to be clear so that it is well received. The ideal is to produce a work that has universal appeal, in other words, many will receive something from the work.

The right mentor can be invaluable in helping you achieve that goal.


SYNOPSIS

Soul Awareness – A Spiritual Awakening to Self-Knowledge and Healing, offers tools that are appropriate for the beginner who is exploring the process of their deeper Spirituality and the function of the Soul as well as individuals who may have been exploring their Soul connection and Spirituality for a life time. “Soul Awareness” offers uncomplicated and easy to use healing tools including; written meditations and pictorial guides. With these tools alone, each individual will develop a deeper sense of self and can begin to experience healing at its deepest level.

In “Soul Awareness”, we discover how the Soul communicates with each individual directly offering us personal direction. It is how we respond to this direction that sets us on the path of our own healing or ill health. In “Soul Awareness” we learn that unless Soul healing takes place we can become ill on all levels; the physical, mental, psychological and Spiritual. It is through our awareness first, that we are able to make a conscious choice about our own healing which ultimately determines our outcome. We also learn that without this healing our own personal journey is not clear. What our purpose is – why we came to this planet in the first place – can become lost in the maze of disconnection and wounding of the Soul. As we first become aware of our Soul – who we truly are – we can then choose our path of healing.

AUTHOR BIO
Carol grew up in a small town in Northern Minnesota. At a young age she realized that her family home held spirits. Although a practical child by nature, because she held the gifts of intuition, clairvoyance, psychic and empathic abilities she was open to that which could not be seen or understood by many. After years of living with these spirits Carol chose to communicate with them in an effort to create harmony in the household. Additionally, with these gifts, Carol’s awareness, care and compassion for others was expressed at an early age. People were naturally drawn to her and they consistently opened up their hearts and minds within minutes of meeting. Her experiences with animals - companion or otherwise has been similar to her connection with humans. This has remained true throughout her lifetime.

The experiences of those early years were an indication of what was to come in the future for Carol and they were the first steps in preparation for her healing work.

As an adult, she took employment in a traditional field. After working a number of years for the government, she became seriously physically ill with a diagnosis of systemic lupus. This bodily wake up call led her to seek out alternative forms of healing, and so she began her journey; her journey of self healing and awareness. She developed an understanding of Spirituality and her connection to the Divine. She studied Qi Gong, Quantum Healing and hypnotherapy. She learned in her journey that ultimately it is the Soul itself that plays an integral and undeniable part in our human journey and it is the health of the Soul that directly affects our whole health as human beings.

Carol has been working as an alternative healer for 16 years and has worked with hundreds of client’s and has accumulated as many session letters and testimonials which support and document her healing work. She is the author and teacher of her Soul Awareness Class materials, and has designed, written and constructed her business website. In addition to teaching her Soul Awareness classes and doing her healing work, she holds public healing forums and hosts prayer/healing gatherings. She has also co authored a series of middle grade novels.
