One of my favorite things to do as I’m writing is to create a Pinterest Board and a Spotify playlist that match the theme of my book. I start adding songs to my playlist as soon as I begin a story and continue, adding as I write. The same is true of my Pinterest board. By the time my manuscript is complete I have the journey well documented. Even more thrilling is when one of my readers shares graphic artwork that they’ve created after reading one of my books.
As an author, I love the glimpse into my readers’ concept of my characters, and considering whether it pairs well with my own vision. Like other art forms, reading is in the eye of the beholder. Many of us who like to read also love to discuss books. These discussions yield similar opinions and often open my eyes to something I hadn’t considered. For the same reason, when someone shows me my work through their eyes, it’s a huge RUSH! :-). The quote picture images on this board were created by one of my gracious readers! Thanks @wishfulmiss! You can see more RUSH images on my Pinterest Board and hear the full RUSH Spotify soundtrack by following the links.

About RUSH
Priscilla Winslow has a mouth that spits fiery sarcasm faster than I can throw a touchdown. But I’ve wanted her ever since I saw her in that Bo Peep outfit on Halloween. Yep, I’m a sheep who will follow that little hottie anywhere. There’s one problem…she hates me. Just because we ended up in jail and quite possibly ruined both our futures…
They’re changing the rules…
College Quarterback Preston Rush is living the dream. He’s leading his team to the National Championship and days away from earning a ‘first round draft pick’ label. When he meets Little Bo Peep at a Halloween party, he thinks he’s scored big. Instead, he wakes up in a jail cell with the corseted beauty. Because of him, she’s in trouble and when he discovers her true identity, he realizes, his nightmare is just beginning.
The always shooting-for-perfection Priscilla Winslow can’t believe her good deed has cost her a soccer career. Even though she knows it isn’t Preston’s fault, she can’t forgive him for the disaster that is her life. She just wishes her damn body would get the message. Every time she sees him, it’s all she can do not to kiss him.
When everything crashes down around him, Preston will have to decide if doing the right thing is worth losing it all.
