Well the launch for #SandbakkelsandSin was a success! Some lessons learned for this debut author but the reviews are starting to come in - and this one gave me the feels ☺️. Lots of love to everybody who supported, I’m happy folks are enjoying Cash & Co!

The #Goodreads #giveaway for my American readers is going on until the 4th! Excited for #SandbakkelsandSin to drop on the 3rd 🥳.
I did a reread yesterday of the whole #cozy and fell in love with the characters all over again!
What’s been your biggest terror moment as an #indieauthor? I’ll go first! 😱
When I ordered my first batch of #ARC for #SandbakkelsandSin I opened none of them had page numbers. Luckily an hour and reupload later, an easy fix for what could have been a devastating reader issue for a debut author. 😅
I think one of the best parts of releasing #SandbakkelsandSin as an #indieauthor is I’m getting to learn the services and tools out there and am starting to understand what channels work best for my potential readers!
If you’re a new author - it’s okay to be a bit intimidated but just dive in! 🙂
My #giveaway on #Goodreads for US readers is open now until January 3rd! The launch of #SandbakkelsandSin coincides with that date - so you’ll get to be one of the first readers!
Can’t wait for you to meet the residents of Salt Cliff!
My author copies of #SandbakkelsandSin came just in time for Christmas! For those on #Goodreads a giveaway will be kicking off tomorrow for 50 copies! I’ll share the link bright and early. 🙂

My parents and I would go to the J.S Wood library branch every week as a kid. This week, my local library pre-ordered a copy of #SandbakkelsandSin after I messaged their selections librarian! Christmas wishes and childhood dreams can come true. 🎄 ✨

Finalized the cover for #SandbakkelsandSin today! I think this has been one of the toughest parts for me in finishing the book.
You have this image of the world you built and the characters you love - then you distill it down to one image. 🖼️
Now spend my morning coffee learning to market!
I think the hardest part about launching #SandbakkelsandSin is that the my day job is pretty chaotic and so learning all the bits and bobs to launch are taking longer to finalize. I just want to get this 🐶 out there and see what people think!

As I’m finalizing the cover for my first book, #SandbakkelsAndSin, a queer #cozymystery this weekend, I want to know what other new and emerging writers are coming out in the genre!
Any suggestions welcome! The more we read the more we learn. 📖
