Announcing New Books!

Hi, everyone! Would anyone like to know what I'm working on? Aside from writing the fifth book in the Element Preservers, I've been working on two new books and I'm really excited about them! The first one is a new adult contemporary romance and the second one is young adult/new adult paranormal romance. None of them have a title yet, but the paranormal romance is going to be a series, which will be called Deadly Destiny and it will be about vampires (who don't feed on animals, btw). Yes, I know everyone is tired of vampires, but not me. I'm not sure whether the contemporary romance will be a part of series or not, but I'll figure it out soon. Anyway, these books should be available for purchase by the end of the year. Of course, I'll need some help, so keep an eye on my blog. :)

You can already add the books on Goodreads:

New Cover for Human!!!

Hello everyone, I just came to tell you that Human has a new cover!! I know it looks almost the same, but now it's much bigger to fit with the rest of the covers. You know, every time I tried to make a signature or a banner with my books, Human would never fit with Dangerous and Runaway because of the size. Besides, some people thought the old cover was sort of creepy because it reminded them of a doll. Oh well, I hope you like this one better. :D

 

As for the possible sequel, I still don't have any awesome news. I haven't decided that there won't be a sequel, but I'll leave that decision for 2013. Right now I'm totally busy with the third book in Element Preservers and my new series/trilogy/not sure. But don't worry. If I decide something, you'll be the first to know. :D 

For anyone waiting for Runaway to appear on Kobo/Diesel/Sony, I hope it won't take much longer, but I honestly have no clue what's taking them so long to put it up. Sorry about that. Oh, and hugs to Australians for getting Runaway on the best-selling list on iTunes! You guys are the best! :D And of course, hugs to everyone reading my books!

Happy New Year!!! Human Update.

First of all, I'd like to wish everyone a happy new year. I hope that you all had a nice time celebrating, and that this year will be thousand times better than any previous. :)

And since it's January, I have to say that Human is coming out this month!! *jumps up and down in excitement*. I know you're probably expecting a date when exactly I will publish it. Well, I've been thinking and I realized I want to publish it as soon as all edits are done and I'm sure everything's perfect. Which all leads us to conclusion that I don't know when will that be. I know. I'm horrible with dates, deadlines and things like that. But if I say some random date and finish earlier, then I'll just be nervous about it all the time ahaha. Yes, I really can't wait to share this book with you. All I can say for now is that it will definitely be published by January 23rd. Actually, that was the date I originally had in mind, but if I finish everything before, there's really no need to wait, so I'll simply publish it before then. It all depends on how much time I'll lose with making last changes and formatting. I don't want to rush and publish a book with which I won't be happy.

So, I challenged myself to read 100 books this year. Let's see how that will work out. I only hope I'll have more time to write and finish Runaway sooner. Then I'd be able to jump on my next project(s) which can't stay out of my head. XD

Book Trailer for Human!!!

I finally had some time to make a book trailer for my young adult paranormal romance/urban fantasy that is coming out in January 2012. I still don't know the exact date (yeah, I know, kill me), but I'm doing the last edits, so you'll probably know when exactly it's coming out in a week or two. I'm really excited about it! Now please check out the trailer!

Oh, and I almost forgot. I now have an author page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Alycia-Linwood/290655180970202 so if you have Facebook, please "like" my page. Thank you! :D

The Cover and Blurb for Human!!!

So, like I promised, here is the cover and blurb for my new book, Human, which is going to be published in January 2012. I'm not sure about the exact date yet, but you will be informed in time. :)

So this is the cover. I hope you like it. And yes, there's a reason for the whole red/blue thing. You'll just have to read the book to find out.
And here is the blurb:

Ariel is a 17-year-old girl whose life takes a completely different turn on the day she comes late to school. There's a new very handsome dark-haired boy, Devin, in her class, but to Ariel's surprise everyone else seems to know him, and her best friend claims he's been going with them to school for years, except Ariel is sure she has never seen him before. Convinced her friends are playing with her, Ariel pretends nothing weird is going on. She even considers the possibility of having a brain disease... until she starts having visions of unknown people with wings and unusual eyes.

What's worse, her visions hint that Devin might be the demon who came to the human world to take an angel to Hell. As she becomes more aware of existence of angels and demons, Ariel finds out her sister is the angel demons want to take. Determined not to let anyone harm her sister, she will do anything, even try to kill the demon on her own. But can she really kill Devin when he appears so human, and what will she do when she reveals the secrets surrounding her true nature? Because, let's face it, a girl who can see both demons and angels in her visions can't really be human.

Human is a young adult urban fantasy/paranormal romance.

Any thoughts? :D
