All four of the Mayhem Series books hit the bestseller list in Germany (AAAAHHHHH!!!! I love you, German readers!!!!), and I had a baby! lol. I've been ridiculously busy care of my now-four-month-old and my almost-two-and-a-half-year-old, which is why I haven't posted here much. The sleep deprivation is real, folks. The sleep deprivation is REAL.<br /><br />All of my free time (what little I now have) goes toward WRITING! I'm currently working on a standalone, dual-perspective, second-chance romance that I know you're going to love, and my goal is to publish it in 2018! I started writing this book shortly after I wrote Mayhem, before I ever knew that book was going to be published, so it's very much in the same vein. Think a hot, bad boy hero who could totally hang with the guys from The Last Ones to Know. ;)<br /><br />If you want to follow me where I tend to post more updates, please <a href="https://www.facebook.com/author.jamieshaw" target="_blank">friend me on Facebook</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/JamiesRockStars/" target="_blank">join my reader group</a>! I promise I won't go eight months there between posts! ...though you will have to deal with lots of cute pictures of my kids. :)Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05980468772767300500noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2300286019425365281.post-86786856694502494422017-02-24T10:44:00.000-05:002017-03-02T16:42:42.079-05:00ROCK MY HEART (Mayhem) -- International Bestseller!!!*SHOUTS FROM THE ROOFTOPS!*<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">I AM OFFICIALLY AN INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR!!!!!!</span><br />
<br />
Holy. Crap.<br />
<br />
The German version of MAYHEM, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Rock-Heart-Roman-Last-German-ebook/dp/B01LSOJLN8/" target="_blank">ROCK MY HEART</a>, is officially killing it over in Germany! Just look at this!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-foJoLHLOq8w/WK-De_KeFII/AAAAAAAAAbg/OoszBvlbMa8n68IqNS6CdMWubSXvML3owCEw/s1600/Bestseller%2BScreencap.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-foJoLHLOq8w/WK-De_KeFII/AAAAAAAAAbg/OoszBvlbMa8n68IqNS6CdMWubSXvML3owCEw/s640/Bestseller%2BScreencap.png" width="587" /></a></div>
<br />
Yeah. That's me. Just chilling a few spots under E L James and JoJo Moyes like we're BFFs.<br />
<br />
I bawled, people. Like a baby. I got the news, and I completely lost it. I'd been getting a lot of love from my German readers over the past few weeks. I mean, just check out these cool Instagram pics they posted! (And there are SO many more, and they're ALL gorgeous! I swear I go all heart-eyes every time someone tags me in one...)<br />
<br />

<br />
BUT A FREAKING BESTSELLER?!?! Not even going to lie -- I'm still in utter awe of it. You better believe that "international bestseller" title is going on all of my book covers from now on! And I rewrote <a href="http://authorjamieshaw.blogspot.com/p/bio.html" target="_blank">my bio</a>! And I feel like a freaking ROCK STAR!<br />
<br />
Thank you SO much to all of the amazing German readers and bloggers who made this happen! And to my awesome German editor, Anna-Lisa Hollerbach, and my amazing, amazing German publisher, <a href="https://www.randomhouse.de/Verlag/Blanvalet/1000.rhd" target="_blank">Blanvalet</a>, who pimped this series hard and made awesome swag to go with it and everything! <3<br />
<br />
When I first wrote Mayhem (ROCK MY HEART), my biggest dream was that maybe I'd get a publisher and maaaybe some people in the US would read it. Readers in Germany? Not in my wildest dreams. A <i>bestseller </i>in Germany? WHAT IS THIS LIFE!<br />
<br />
My readers really are the stuff dreams are made of. And they've made MY biggest dreams come true. So thank you, thank you, thank you. I hope you love the other books in the series just as much. :)Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05980468772767300500noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2300286019425365281.post-67857932313751747122017-02-21T02:14:00.000-05:002017-02-21T02:14:02.166-05:00HAVOC IS LIVE!<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Mayhem Series fans have been waiting almost two years for
the drummer of The Last Ones to Know to get his happily ever after, and he
finally gets it with Hailey Harper—the little cousin of his bat-shit crazy ex-girlfriend.<br />
<br />
Here are some things I think are <span style="color: magenta;"><i>especially </i></span>cool about this story:</div>

books.</li>

<li>It has the longest sex scene.</li>
<li>There’s romantic competition—for the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">hero’s</i> heart.</li>
<li>It has dirty talk.<span style="font-family: "symbol"; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;"> </span></span></li>

characters you’ve grown to love throughout the series! </li>
</ul>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Just check out this synopsis!!</div>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">When Hailey Harper left her family
farm to enroll in veterinary school, she had a plan: keep her head down, ace
her classes, and most importantly... don’t upset the uncle paying her tuition.
Translation? Don’t piss off his dramatic, self-absorbed daughter, Danica, even
if she’s a nightmare to live with.<br /><br />Falling in love with her cousin’s rock
star ex-boyfriend was definitely </i><i><span style="font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">not</span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">
part of the plan.<br /><br />As the drummer of a now-famous rock
band, Mike Madden could have any girl he wants. He’s sweet, funny, romantic,
talented—and the only guy that’s ever made Hailey’s heart do cartwheels in her
chest. The more she gets to know him, the harder she falls, but Hailey knows
they can never be more than friends… because Danica wants him back, and she’ll
fight dirty to win.<br /><br />Mike is falling for Hailey too, but
Danica’s threats and his rock star life—music video shoots, international
tours, obsessed fans—could tear them apart before they’ve even begun. Hailey
isn’t sure she’s the one for him, but Mike’s waited years for a girl like her…
and he’ll do anything to prove it.</i></blockquote>

This announcement just went live on Publisher's Marketplace:<br />
<br />
<img align="none" data-cke-saved-src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/e1673f62629e5622b15fa4b12/images/8674c3c0-10ef-400f-a3db-028e4b6e183c.jpg" height="101" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/e1673f62629e5622b15fa4b12/images/8674c3c0-10ef-400f-a3db-028e4b6e183c.jpg" style="margin: 0px;" width="640" /><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px;">YAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!<br /><br />I'm so excited to FINALLY share that I will be releasing this book early next year, and that the heroine of Mike's story will be the sweet, pocket-sized gamer chick you met in CHAOS, HAILEY! She's so perfect for Mike, and eventually he is going to be able to look past his heartless ex, Hailey's cousin, to see that.<br /><br />Mike Madden has been a reader favorite ever since the release of the very first book in the series, MAYHEM, and it's not hard to see why. He's sweet. He's genuine. He's not a big talker unless there's something that needs said. He was the first guy to become a true friend to Rowan in MAYHEM. He was the friend who offered Kit heartfelt advice in CHAOS. He was the guy who turned down a room full of half-naked groupies, explaining, "<i>Look, when I meet my wife, I don't want to have to explain to her why I slept with a hundred people before I met her, okay?</i>"<br /><br />SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!<br /><br />In truth, Mike was the best boyfriend material even from the very beginning of this series. He's never been a player like Adam or Joel or even Shawn. He's never been one to hook up with the groupies constantly throwing themselves at the band. He's always been the most ready for love, and I am so beyond thrilled to finally give him the girl he's been waiting for. One who deserves him. <3<br /><br />I know you guys are going to love Hailey and this story. While you're waiting for that release date to get closer, here are some ways you can stay up to date:</span><br />

Hi all! Just wanted to post an update to let you know that
my CHAOS street team members have been chosen! It was SO hard making the selection, since you know how much I love each
and every one of my readers, but I had to keep the group small in order to get
the okay from my publisher to provide the members with e<span class="text_exposed_show">-ARCs.
If you weren't selected, please don't be discouraged -- I'm going to
create a new street team for each book release, so you’ll have plenty
opportunities in the future! <3</span></div>

<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Mayhem-Jamie-Shaw-ebook/dp/B00N81I66I/" target="_blank"><img alt=" CHAOS Preorder" border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_ZyiIX15M0g/VW84FJXJl8I/AAAAAAAAAOE/mdZ5RNiEGE8/s320/Chaos%2Bcover%2Bhigh%2Bres.jpg" width="196" /></a></div>
<br />
The CHAOS audiobook narrators are officially official, and they aaare.....<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
*drum roll pleeeease*<br />
<br />
Khristine Hvam and Andy Paris!<br />
<b><br /></b><b>Khristine. Freaking. Hvam!!!!</b><br />
<br />
Why is it SO FREAKING COOL that Khristine is narrating CHAOS, you ask?<br />
<br />
It's because my love of romance, my love of <i>reading</i>, all started with Julie Kagawa's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Iron-Fey-Boxed-Set-Daughter/dp/0373210787" target="_blank">The Iron Fey</a> series, and Khristine narrated those books. Now one of <i>my </i>books is being narrated by the same person who narrated <a href="http://authorjamieshaw.blogspot.com/2014/08/an-author-who-hated-to-read.html" target="_blank"><i>the series that changed my life</i></a> (which remains one of my favorite series to this day), and that just blows. my. flipping. mind.<br />
<br />
Nevermind that Khristine is ridiculously talented and a rock star narrator. In addition to narrating The Iron Fey series, she also narrated the Vampire Academy books..... the freaking <b>Vampire Academy </b>books.<br />
<br />
As some of you may recall, Khristine was originally
signed on to voice Dee in RIOT, but she had to back out due to some
unforeseeable circumstances. It ended up working out for the best,
though, because Arielle DeLisle stepped in and she ROCKED IT. She was
the <i>perfect </i>Dee (seriously, just <a href="http://www.audible.com/pd/Romance/Riot-Audiobook/B00S1PCNRY" target="_blank">listen</a>), and honestly, Khristine makes for a <i>much </i>better Kit. ;)<br />
<br />
Khristine is finishing up her recording of CHAOS this week, and I can't wait to hear the story in her voice, because I know she's going to knock Kit Larson's fun, snarky, rock star personality out of the park. Between Khristine and Andy, this audiobook is going to ROCK!<br />
<br />
Only a month and a half left until you can get CHAOS in <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Mayhem-Jamie-Shaw-ebook/dp/B00N81I66I/" target="_blank">ebook</a> or <a href="http://www.audible.com/pd/Fiction/Chaos-Audiobook/B00V759IFA/" target="_blank">audiobook</a> formats! Out next month, on July 21st!<br />
<br />
I hope you're as excited as I am!! <br />

So what IS a street team?<br />
<br />
Basically, it's a group of superfans who would like to help me promote my books, and in exchange, receive some awesome perks! (Like an advance e-ARC of CHAOS!! EEEE!!!) I want this group to be <i>fun </i>as well as productive, so in addition to promotional stuff (brainstorming marketing strategies, creating teasers, writing reviews), we'll also talk books, have some exclusive giveaways, and fight over Shawn Scarlett. ;)<br />
<br />
If you think you might be interested in joining my team, you can get more info and fill out an application here:<br />

<br />
The deadline for applications is Sunday, June 7th, so make sure to apply soon! And in the meantime, check out my fan group on Facebook, because that group rocks hard too:<br />

<br />
I'm so stoked because I had a HUGE say in this one! I hand-picked the cover image and the color of the title, and I <i>love </i>the way it all turned out! It's like a scene straight out of the book, and in less than three months, you'll finally get to read it!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div id="outer_postBodyPS" style="height: auto; overflow: hidden; z-index: 1;">
<div id="postBodyPS">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: #073763;">From the moment she saw Shawn Scarlett
perform at a school talent show, Kit Larson has loved two things: the
guitar, and the gorgeous, green-eyed boy who inspired her to play. But
one careless night in high school shatters her hope of ever being more
than a notch on his bedpost.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: #073763;">Six years, two bands, and one
mostly-mended heart later, Kit’s about to make her rock star dreams a
reality as the new guitarist for Shawn’s band, The Last Ones to Know. He
may not remember their reckless night together, but Kit has never
forgotten… and she’s determined to make him eat his heart out.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: #073763;">The
release of their new album means a month cooped up on a tour bus,
sleeping inches away from the ridiculously sexy musician she’s never
quite gotten over. And as Kit gets to know the real Shawn—not Shawn
Scarlett, the rock god, the player—their attraction becomes too hot to
resist. But the past is paved with secrets, and when they finally
surface, Kit could lose everything: the band, the music, her dreams… and
Shawn.</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
<br />
I love how shadowy and mysterious Shawn is on the cover because it totally suits him. He has his hands full with Kit, and that synopsis isn't kidding -- there are SECRETS, sooo many secrets.<br />
<br />
This book turned out long -- about 100,000 words, which is much longer than the first two in the series -- and trust me, you're going to want to read it!<br />

So what do you guys think? Do you love it? Are you excited?! I can't wait!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05980468772767300500noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2300286019425365281.post-86790266988786443882015-04-29T14:10:00.000-04:002015-04-29T14:10:32.045-04:00Oh Hey ThereIt's been A MILLION YEARS since I last did a blog post! And a LOT has happened!<br /><br />I've had THREE signings since then. ApollyCon at the end of February was my very first book signing EVER, and it was <i>amazing</i>. I got to meet so many of my favorite authors -- Jennifer Armentrout, Jay Crownover, Jamie McGuire, Wendy Higgins, Tiffany King... the list seriously goes on and on. It was a huge event, and I completely <i>sold out</i> of books.<br />
<br />
Sold. The hell. Out. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YApuLqecvoE/VUEWFTo9KuI/AAAAAAAAAL8/62HQauTcGIA/s1600/BB4qxnF.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YApuLqecvoE/VUEWFTo9KuI/AAAAAAAAAL8/62HQauTcGIA/s1600/BB4qxnF.gif" /></a></div>
<br />
Interacting with readers was pretty much the best thing ever. I had DREAMED of my first signing, and let me just say -- the fans at ApollyCon blew my expectations out of the water. They were so amazing and enthusiastic... I went home feeling like a freaking rock star. My husband came with me as my assistant, and after seeing the lines I kept getting in front of my table, even <i>he </i>finally realized what a BIG deal all of this is! Which was AWESOME.<br /><br />Then I had a little signing at my local BAM, and later I got to take part in my first author panels at Avon KissCon, and... yeah, it's been surreal. And amazing.<br />
<br />
NOW, I'm starting another exciting adventure -- I'm officially beginning my maternity leave! Baby Shaw is due in just four and a half more weeks! I posted this pic on my FB pages 10 weeks ago... and now, just imagine a belly 5 bazillion times this size: <br />
<br />

<br />
It's a boy, and he's HUGE! Or at least he feels that way. I guess we'll find out in a few weeks. ;)<br /><br />In the meantime, I've finished writing CHAOS and I officially have a cover to share with you guys!!! So now that we're all caught up, I'm going to end this blog entry and post lots of pretty for you.<br />

(Less than THREE freaking hours from now!)<br />
<br />
And I wanted to write a post about everyone’s favorite best
friend, Dee.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>;)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Dee is the heroine in RIOT, and she's definitely a handful.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Those of you who read MAYHEM know that Dee is
a girl who says and does whatever the hell she wants.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She’s promiscuous, she’s outspoken
(understatement of the century), and she makes no apologies.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dee is *real*, and if you’re like me, there will be parts
of RIOT when you want to bitch-slap her, there will be parts when you want to hug her,
and there will be parts when you want to <i>be </i>her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s no secret how hard readers can be on flawed (at times
“unlikeable”) heroines, but I set out to write a book about “the best friend”—the
slutty, outspoken girl who almost never gets her own book—and that’s exactly
what I did.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Dee is Dee, from beginning
to end.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you loved her in MAYHEM,
you’ll have more of her to love in RIOT.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>;)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And, that being said, Joel is Joel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is a book about two characters who are
players, who view sex as something fun to do, a game to play.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This book is a *lot* steamier than MAYHEM,
with a much rawer storyline.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It still
has humor and fun times with the band, but we see things from *Dee’s*
point-of-view, and Dee’s view of the world, not to mention her moral compass,
are drastically different from Rowan’s.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This review (which I absolutely ADORE) does a great job at
describing the differences: <a href="http://freshfiction.com/review.php?id=50347">http://freshfiction.com/review.php?id=50347</a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I, personally, grew to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">love</i>
Dee by the end of the story.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Like
seriously, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">really</i> love her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And I grew to love Joel, even though when I
first started writing MAYHEM, I never imagined him being a hero in his own
book.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These two damaged characters got a
story that felt like it was <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">always</span>
meant to be written the exact way it turned out, and it is a story I am <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">immensely</span> proud of.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’m proud of my characters and how they grew.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’m proud of myself for sticking to my
guns.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And… yeah, I just really freaking
love this book.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And I hope you will too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Happy reading!</div>

A *LOT*. A lot, a lot, a lot.<br />
<br />
MAYHEM released two weeks ago, and you guys got made it *skyrocket* to the Best Seller lists on Amazon. You put it in the Top 20 Coming of Age books. You put it in the Top 20 New Adult & College books. You put it at a mind-blowing #193 on the Paid Kindle books rankings -- out of over a <i>million </i>titles.<br />
<br />
January 20, 2015 will forever go down as one of the best days ever, and I bawled so many times that day. Because things like this don't happen to debut authors. And I <i>never</i> thought they'd happen to me.<br />
<br />
That day, in the eeearly hours of the morning, the release-day madness all started with this:<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First dream come true: my book was published. It was on a Kindle. People could buy it. People could read it. <i>I was already on cloud nine.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then, seventeen hours later, this happened:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FceMW36-Pmc/VNEsBn6PF-I/AAAAAAAAAIw/acPJf6HWHGk/s1600/FB%2B2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-FceMW36-Pmc/VNEsBn6PF-I/AAAAAAAAAIw/acPJf6HWHGk/s1600/FB%2B2.png" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
And I wasn't lying. I did cry. A <i>lot</i>. I'd gone into this publishing venture with next to no expectations, so to see my book -- <i>my </i>book, that I'd worked so hard on -- climbing up the ranks... to know that people were reading it, that <i>a lot</i> of people were reading it... it was overwhelming.<br />
<br />
Then, MAYHEM made the New Adult list, and I got to see its cover sitting pretty on lists next to some of my FAVORITE books. <i>My </i>name was next to names like Jay Crownover, Jennifer Armentrout, Cora Carmack. I was overwhelmed to the point of tears once again, because looking at my computer screen and seeing that with my own eyes... it felt too big -- too big to have even hoped for. And yet here it was, <i>really </i>happening.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fnjuGZPJQG8/VNHT6yo1A0I/AAAAAAAAAK0/wUW9e8CCKU8/s1600/FB%2B6.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fnjuGZPJQG8/VNHT6yo1A0I/AAAAAAAAAK0/wUW9e8CCKU8/s1600/FB%2B6.png" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And still, MAYHEM kept rising, rising, rising, until, on its second day, it made the Top freaking 20.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HxJmukD_qGw/VNEynFZUi1I/AAAAAAAAAJI/7gggqtqKqVM/s1600/FB%2B4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HxJmukD_qGw/VNEynFZUi1I/AAAAAAAAAJI/7gggqtqKqVM/s1600/FB%2B4.png" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I still can't truly describe that feeling. I felt like a fucking <b>rock star</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As time passed and MAYHEM's ranking got better and better and better, this is what the email chain between me, my editor, and my agent looked like:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nutc-la68YM/VNEvbrTebcI/AAAAAAAAAI8/rUYmg53gDKQ/s1600/Fb%2B3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nutc-la68YM/VNEvbrTebcI/AAAAAAAAAI8/rUYmg53gDKQ/s1600/Fb%2B3.png" height="301" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We. Were. Freaking. OUT.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At its highest point (day 2), MAYHEM ranked #193 of all paid Kindle titles. And this pretty much sums up how I felt (except imagine a lot more screaming, bawling, and flailing):</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5FkfZiFhHCg/VNE05ek6CvI/AAAAAAAAAJg/rZ4o4dVfeT4/s1600/FB%2B5.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5FkfZiFhHCg/VNE05ek6CvI/AAAAAAAAAJg/rZ4o4dVfeT4/s1600/FB%2B5.png" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And you know what? This blog post hasn't been nearly mushy enough. That first week of my debut, I started getting messages from readers, <i>real </i>readers who loved my characters, my story, my writing. And every single one of those messages was the best thing ever. I had a reader actually tell me that I made *her* day when I responded to an email she wrote me........</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
UM, GUYS. You make <i>my </i>day every time you message me! When you freak out and talk about your ovaries exploding because you fell in love with one of my characters, I laugh my ass off and FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU. I'm a total fangirl over my fans. You guys are AMAZING. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the two weeks since MAYHEM has been out, you've <i>kept </i>it on the Best Seller lists. You've reviewed it over 600 times on Goodreads. You've gotten your friends to read it, your friends' friends to read it, your friends' friends' friends to read it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I know that eventually, after I've released a lot more books and have had a lot more experiences like this, these feelings might start to fade, and release days might start to seem less magical. But dear god, I hope not. And if they do, I hope I never forget. I hope I never forget what it felt like to get my first message from my first reader about my first book when it came out on its first day.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That's part of why I'm writing this blog post right now -- because yes, I want to say thank you, but I also always want to remember to <i>keep </i>thanking you. I owe MAYHEM's success to every single person who read it, to every single person who reviewed it, and to every single person who told a friend. A lot of hard work went into the book by a lot of people, but all of that work would have been for nothing without you guys.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So..... even though this blog post still hasn't been <i>nearly </i>mushy enough, I'll end it by simply saying thank you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Thank you, thank you, thank you.</b></div>

<br />
Four weeks until one of the biggest dreams I've ever had comes true.<br />
<br />
And I just want to take this opportunity to share some things I've learned...<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Everyone reading this blog post right now is awesome. Seriously. The support I've gotten from friends, family, coworkers... it's all been amazing. But the most surprising thing has been the support I've gotten from friends of friends, moms of friends, total strangers I've connected with through social media. I never would have imagined I'd have so many people rooting for me, and it's been surprising and overwhelming in the best possible way. You guys make me feel like a rock star. I get excited hearing about how excited YOU are to read the book, and I can't
wait to hear what you think when you finally get to.<br /><br /></li>
<li>The publishing community is awesome. Seriously. My agent, my editor, all of the authors who've read the book or said that they want to, bloggers, avid readers -- EVERYONE. I feel so privileged to be a part of this amazing circle full of all of these amazingly supportive people. I'd heard that it was hard to break into the "cool kids club" once you get a publishing deal, but truly, everyone in the publishing community <i>is </i>a cool kid, and I love talking to each and every one of you. Everyone has been so accepting and welcoming and out-of-their-way supportive... I love you guys, I really do.<br /><br /></li>
<li>Publishing is so much more than writing. Seriously. It's deadlines (ugh) for first drafts, edits, copyedits, blurbs, etc. It's legal issues and contracts. It's stock-photo black holes and compromising on covers. It's promotion -- SOOOO much promotion (networking, blog posts, social media, events, etc.). It's one hell of a learning curve. To put it plainly, it's a <i>lot </i>of work. A <i>lot </i>of work. You really have to love it. And you have to have the time and discipline for it, because gone are the days when writers could be flighty space cadets who have no concept of time or obligation. Being an author means managing your time and managing it well -- and not completely losing your mind while you're trying really hard to manage it. And for me, personally, all of that hard work has already been more than worth it.<br /><br /></li>
</ol>
With four weeks left, I want to sincerely thank every single person who has preordered the book. You guys are freaking awesome, and I can't wait to hear what you think of it when it comes out (in four weeks... FOUR WEEKS!!!).<br />
<br />
And if you haven't placed your preorder(s) yet, here are some links to do so. :) (Paperbacks will be available within a month or so of each e-book release, but the e-books are cheap sooo... just get both!)<br />

<br />
Something that fits the plot. Something that fits the theme of the series. Something that would look cool as hell in that rock star font that's on the covers of my books. ;)<br />
<br />
So, without further ado...<br />
<br />
1. MAYHEM<br />
2. RIOT<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">3. </span><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Unti-Jamie-Shaw-3-ebook/dp/B00N81I66I/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1419023717&sr=8-4&keywords=jamie+shaw" target="_blank">C H A O S</a></span></span></div>
<br />
<b>CHAOS!!!</b> This title totally fits the book and fits my theme, but I'm not going to lie... the thing that sold me was how awesome it's going to look on the cover. I'm almost halfway done writing it, and you are going to LOVE this heroine. She's the definition of rock star chic, a girl who can hold her own against the sizzling hot guys in the band. She grew up in a big family with four older brothers, which has made her a complete spitfire. She's spunky and witty and... well, you'll see on July 21st when the book comes out. ;)<br />
<br />
MAYHEM releases in one month and one day (EEP), and RIOT releases three weeks later. So get those, read them, love them, and then place your preorder for CHAOS because it's going to rock just as hard. <3<br />

<br />
How would you like to see some of the words that appear on my copyeditor's style sheet? ;) A style sheet is a running document that a copyeditor keeps to make sure certain grammar-related things are staying consistent throughout the book, and it includes a list of special words that should be spelled/hyphenated the same way each time.<br />
<br />
Here are some of my favorites from RIOT:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>badass</li>
<li>batshit crazy</li>
<li>dickhead</li>
<li>douchebag</li>
<li>douchey; douchiest</li>
<li>hand-cooties</li>
<li>man-whore</li>
<li>motherfucker</li>
<li>shit-faced</li>
<li>shit-ton</li>
<li>skeezy</li>
</ul>
<br />
I had to laugh as I was going through the list. ....Because I'm a professional. ;)<br />
<br />
Plus.......................... douchey. *insert professional giggling here* <br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">When
Dee Dawson meets sexy mohawked guitarist Joel Gibbon, she knows it
won’t be long before she has him wrapped around her finger. No guy has
ever been able to resist her… but Dee’s met her match in a player like
Joel.<br /><br />Dee’s not the relationship type—not after seeing the pain
“love” has caused her friends and family—yet she’s desperate to make
Joel want her more than anyone else. He quickly becomes an obsession,
and when a reckless attempt to make him jealous ends in disaster, Dee
turns into the damsel in distress she never wanted to be. With her
carefree world crashing down around her, the last thing she needs is
Joel’s pity.<br /><br />But Joel is suddenly determined to prove he cares,
and no matter how hard Dee tries to push him away, he refuses to let her
shut him out. Now the girl who swore she’d never say those three little
words must choose between guarding her heart and losing Joel forever…
or falling head-over-heels for the tattooed rock star of her dreams.</span></span></span></b></span><br />

<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">When
college freshman Rowan Michaels meets gorgeous, up-and-coming rock star
Adam Everest, she knows a player like him is the last thing she needs
after her ex-boyfriend shattered her heart. But she can’t stop thinking
about the kiss they shared on his tour bus.<br /><br />On the first day of
school, Rowan is stunned when Adam saunters into her French class. He’s
soon failing miserably, and on a whim, she offers to tutor him. But Adam
doesn’t recognize her as a makeup-free, glasses-clad college student—a
far cry from the beautiful, mysterious “Peach” he met at his concert.<br /><br />During
a wild weekend on tour with the band, Rowan can’t help falling for the
sweet guy buried beneath Adam’s rocker persona. Yet she knows she could
never compete with the girls constantly throwing themselves at his feet.
She’d just end up hurt... again. <br /><br />Peach is all Adam thinks
about, though, and when Rowan realizes this, she has a decision to make:
stay just friends to protect her fragile heart…or reveal the truth
about the night they met and admit she’s fallen completely, hopelessly
in love with him.</span></span></span></span><br />
