Announcement: Committed cover reveal!

Ever since Amazon announced Kindle serials, I've been intrigued. If you're unfamiliar with serials, think of television shows: though each episode contains a plot that's usually resolved by the end of the episode, there are overarching plots that are carried out over the course of the show's seasons.

I knew almost immediately that I wanted to give writing one a try, and an idea popped into my head that I thought would work well. If you've ever planned a wedding, I'm sure you can relate to the plot of Committed. As anyone who's ever planned a wedding knows, it's enough to make you crazy.


When Ella Mikowski decided to plan her dream wedding, she had no idea what she was getting herself into. As if juggling her career and the millions of wedding planning details isn’t enough, it seems that anything that can go wrong does go wrong. Will Ella manage to make it down the aisle with her sanity intact?

Episode 1: With only seven days to go until the wedding, Ella heads to the salon. But her visions of a head full of beautiful highlights setting off her exquisite headpiece is ruined when something in the solution causes her hair to fall off in clumps.


*****

Committed will be an eight episode serial, with episodes released every other week. Each episode will be around 12,000 words (approximately 40 pages), be priced at 99 cents, and will detail one day leading up to Ella's wedding. I'll release episode one on Thursday, February 28th.

I'm looking forward to hearing what you think of Committed. I've been having a lot of fun writing it, and I hope you'll find yourself as caught up in Ella's tale as I am.

  1. I'm really looking forward to this type of story. The only hard part will be the wait in between. It will be nice to not have to say goodbye to characters so soon.

  2. It's a lot of fun to write. And I hope the wait won't be too difficult for everyone! If this one goes well, I'll probably do another serial, and I'm thinking about writing one that would be shaped by reader input--you'd tell me who you think should end up with whom, how plot threads should be resolved, etc. and I'd write it that way. I think that would be a lot of fun too.
