What's going on!

Hey Lovelies!
I'm terribly sorry that it has been almost a week since I have updated! I know I keep saying I'll do better! I figured I would share what is going on in Ottilie's writing world. I figured I'd start a behind the scenes type entry for my books. I'll do one for Family Ties probably this weekend, I'll share tid bits on what I was thinking while writing it and little fun facts about it, I hope this makes up for not writing in awhile! When End of the Line gets closer to being re-released I'll do one for that story and so on! Hopefully everyone will enjoy them!

I am actually almost done writing the end of Pirates!! I can't believe that this is almost done, my baby is growing up! I know that sounds a little crazy, bare with me. I'll be doing revisions for it this summer, the end will probably be finished this week, hopefully by tomorrow! While the revisions are going on, I'll be working on Project US, Runaway, Beaker to Life, and the short story for the charity! Curious if after the revisions if Pirates will be one story or two, and if only one will I use the title A Pirates Life for Me or Heart out at Sea. There will probably other projects as well, like figuring out what I'm doing for a cover for End of the Line. Taylor is usually pretty busy so I'm not sure if she'll do another cover or I'll take my friend Amy's offer, she offered to do a photoshoot for the cover when the rain finally stops here! Don't mind me today was barely overcast and today was the first sign of sun in a week. I'm in dire need of sun and beach! Hmm I feel like I'm missing something else....hope not and talk to you soon!

TADA Book Trailer!!

Hey Lovelies!!
I worked a couple of days on this and since I'm not tech savvy I'm proud of what i have done for my first book trailer! Family Ties was the guinee pig (we wont tell Abby that!) well I hope you all enjoy the video if not at least got a good laugh at my skills! :) Though I am happy to notice that Family Ties has been slowly gaining stars! (5, 4, 3, 3!!) and the numbers keep rolling in and I'm pretty happy! More updates to come, but till then enjoy the show!

Working out Details

Hey Lovelies!
Well I'm currently suppose to be reteaching myself Italian because of my final is Thursday morning instead I'm watching Supernatural in my pjs, writing this blog entry. Life is good when morning is slow and Supernatural is on, Dean is amazing! I'll stop myself from ranting my fasnincation with Supernatural while I'm ahead, but right now as the title says is working out the small details in my life, or making them small so I don't have a panic attack. I have my last final on thursday after I had been working on two all weekend while watching a couple parts of the royal wedding. I prefer shows about the prepartion of weddings then actually watching weddings, I dont' care for listening to long speeches.

I'm currently looking with a friend for a place to live for school, easier said then done. Hehehe Dean really sucks at rock, paper, scissors, shoot! Wow sorry, back to course! Okay, so finals, finding a place to live, a couple loose commiuncation with friends not really sure if it is because o my choice of friends or because of college. The ex is trying to see me after almost 2 years of not seeing each other we are friends just not sure what to think of that. My stomach is doesn't handle stress anymore, yes at 19 I had killed it enough that stress and stomach doesn't add well.

Oh! Also working on doing a book signing in July! I'll be in Booktowne in Manasquan July 2 at 12pm-2pm!! I'm pretty excited! I have a couple people who are not in the state or the country that we joked that will be there in spirit! If you are out of state and will to have your copy signed I am thinking of opening the suggestion of allowing people mail me their copy with returning stamps I'll sign it and return it back to the owner :). HOWEVER if you are able to come I would seriously love it if you came!! I've only been to one book signing myself, so I'm beyond words, I'd love to see the support! I'll be doing a chat (I'll post the link when it is closer) live late June on BCP site! So like I said, working on the small details. Hahaha it's the 3 B's blog tagging day apparently! Sorry you all had to suffer an ADD Ottilie day! I'm going to stop writing now before you all have to suffer more of it!
