Pulse World stories

The Pulse World, though finished for Elizabeth and Virgil in The Pulse Trilogy (A Steady Pulse, Barely Beating, and Flat Line), is still alive and kicking. There are an array of characters that we have yet to truly learn about. Along with stories that are begging to be told. Such as people's histories, how certain couples ended up together, the story that started the war between brothers, and what about some of the adventures of Annette and Andrel?! If you don't know the characters you are missing out! Grab your copy of A Steady Pulse as an ebook for #FREE at Barnes and Noble or a paperback.

Anyway, this is where I am at. I am struggling to figure out what story to tell first. Two are currently colliding with one another, though one is in the led I am beyond excited to get them out! First drafts are so much fun but they are always the messiest and require the most attention. There is so much detail and connections you have to make sure line up within each other, especially when writing scenes that run parallel in another book.

I don't want to give too much information, but I will say this. One story takes place almost a year after the Pulse Trilogy, while one runs parallel to the Pulse Trilogy revealing what happened to a character that should have perished. I know, that could be a few different people, but if you have read book three, Flat Line, I am certain you guessed who. :)

There is plenty more to come, and both of these stories do not have release dates. So I am saying 2016 for now until things become more certain.

See you soon!

the Pulse Trilogy is almost done. :)

The Pulse Trilogy is nearing a close. Once I get Flat Line in my hands I am going to give it one last review before releasing it and then it's onto the next project. There will never be an end to the Pulse World. I look forward to exploring the mystery behind certain characters, but at a later time.

It has been a fun adventure writing about Elizabeth and Virgil. Honestly, It might not be the last. You may glimpse them again in the near future. :)

And as I wait for Flat Line to get here I am reviewing over Guardian, A Fated Pairing line by line to turn it into a paperback. Fourth paperback! Yeah!! Cross your fingers that it will be available in October.

Barely Beating Cover Re-Reveal!


The sexy Cover for Barely Beating by Jennifer Munswami! 



After a not so pleasant vacation featuring Elizabeth Parks nearly being killed, she couldn’t be happier to be home. Though, the vacation wasn’t a total bust. She did find herself now dating a deliciously sexy man named Virgil Hart. The only downside was that he was a vampire. Not that it was a big downside, but it did make things more complicated when asked ‘what happened while she was on Vacation?’ Needless to say Elizabeth tries her best to put the whole experience behind her while she focuses on work and maybe about putting her hands on Virgil. What’s a girl to do when he’s walking around shirtless all the time in her apartment?

But is it really that easy to fall back into her old life and put the events of her vacation behind her? Definitely not! It isn’t long before her Pulse radar goes off and her newly formed vampire family is on high alert. What creatures have been stalking them? Are they the real enemy or is there someone much worse lurking just around the corner?

Announcement: Cover Re-Reveal!!

A while back, when I first published the e-book, Barely Beating, the second in the Pulse Trilogy, I had a wonderful lady make a cover for me. Mrs. Ashley Wied was kind enough to create me a wonderful cover and it has been with me and will stay with me forever. I am forever grateful for her creating the first covers to the Pulse Trilogy.

Thank you so much Ashley.

After a little work I have finally gotten up the courage to publish the Pulse Trilogy as paperbacks on Createspace and thus I need full wrap covers. So I decided to team up with Jennifer Munswami to work on the three covers.

On March first You will get the chance to see Barely Beating's paperback cover!! I am so excited! I feel like I'm high on pixie sticks and Dr. Pepper!

-See you soon for the reveal!

The Pulse Trilogy: Little secrets You may not have known

The Pulse Trilogy

As the writer there are things I love to picture about my characters that may not end up on the page. I can't tall you every piece of food a character likes, all of their life's decisions that led them here, or many other things in which aren't that relevant to the story, but I do try and share a lot. So, here is some information you may not know. Along with little spoilers about what might be to come or said in works not yet revealed. :) 

Unknown Piece of Information #1:

Elizabeth’s full name is Elizabeth Ann Parks. Her middle name is a shortened version of her mother’s name.

Unknown Piece of Information #2:

Genealogy:
Elizabeth has two Aunts, six Cousins, and one Second Cousin on the way. All of her family lives within Louisiana except her cousin Ami, who is married to Timothy Sanders. They live in the Fort Worth area in Texas.

Unknown Piece of Information #3:

Bethany’s last name:
She always introduces herself by Bethany Jean. This reason is because Bethany’s family is connected to the Liddell family fortune. Her mother was adopted into the family, but has best tried not to pull her kids into the lime light. Hence why Bethany’s always wearing glamorous outfits and dressing up when she’s not at work. Its apart of her parent’s upbringing. It’s also the reason why her parents aren’t there. They are always away on business or vacationing at one of their many houses. Bethany chose to stay in Alexandria where she found a second family in Elizabeth and her father.

Liddel Family fortune came during the early 1920s, first starting out by investing in small businesses and supporting many flourishing companies. Throughout the years became top twenty wealthiest profiting off of everything from Magazines to furniture stores. Now, they are leading in home decor Magazines with the latest in modern and southern decor. And still today they rank among the top twenty with future goals to integrating Asian style into their company with a new magazine release in hopes a bringing in a fresh crowd and sky rocking them into the Top Ten.

Unknown Piece of Information #4:

Elizabeth’s family is a mix of rebels, Saints, and a couple of Tar heel fans--Elizabeth and her dad being the Tar heel Fans.

Unknown Piece of Information #5:

Elizabeth drives a blue BMW, 2008 Honda Accord when we first meet her in A Steady Pulse, but after getting into a car accident she gets a white 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid.

Unknown Piece of Information #6:

Genealogy:
Martha, Elizabeth’s Aunt, is given the middle name Angeline. This is in honor is Samuel Senior’s (Grandfather to Elizabeth) baby sister who passed away before Martha’s birth.

Unknown Piece of Information #7:

Virgil’s mother moved after receiving the letter saying that her one and only son, Virgil, died in combat and ended up getting remarried. But she always carried with her a picture of Virgil and her first husband in a locket around her neck. She always loved him even though she hated his choice to join the military.

Unknown Piece of Information #8:

Characters like Andrel and Garrison do not have a past to younger vampires because the truths about their lives are in secret. Not many know about the start of vampires and ever fewer survived it. What we see now is only a shell of what was left of the true Vampyre. To be revealed later.

Unknown Piece of Information #9:

Helena Poe was Born in 1825. Reborn 1856
Her father died in a stabbing and her mother married again, but with four new siblings, Helena became invisible and she was forgotten to do with life what she wanted and placed on the streets. So she erased her former life and removed herself of her name. She replaced it with Helen Poe after Lugen-Poe and became a part of the group Les Nabis (post-impressionist avant-garde artists) in France.
She began working under Garrison after William had saved her from hoodlums in the slums on London.

Unknown Piece of Information #10:

Chris Wells, Sarah and Samantha’s brother from A Steady Pulse, hunted and tracked down William. William was impressed with Chris’s thirst for revenge that he used Chris for his own game of revenge even though William was responsible for what happened to Samantha. It was this yearning for the power to kill those responsible that drove Chris to speed up the process and turned him into a monster.
