Morgan Media Lauch: Morgan Media Does Book Trailers


"Quality author services at affordable prices"

Welcome to the third day of launch week! Today the service being highlighted is ...

Book Trailers

Helping me out today are Cally Jackson, author of the new adult novel The Big Smoke, and Cherie Reich, who has published a lot of short fiction and recently announced plans to publish her debut novel. Creating videos is something I've enjoyed ever since I discovered the simple Windows Movie Maker on my computer about eight or nine years ago, so book trailers are something I've always been keen to do. Now that I have more sophisticated software, I'm able to start experimenting with more complex video editing. Cally and Cherie were kind enough to let me try out my skills on their books!

Cherie Reich, author of The Nightmare Collection

To see more book trailers, visit the book trailers page on the Morgan Media website.

P.S. The electricity went out at home this morning before I wrote and published this blog post, so I'm now sitting at gym doing it. For some reason the browser here is weird and won't let me type anything in Compose mode, so I'm having to do it all in HTML mode. Not ideal!

Oh, and you can still enter the giveaway until the end of Thursday!

Morgan Media Launch: Morgan Media Does Animated Book Covers


"Quality author services at affordable prices"

Today the service being highlighted is ...

Animated Book Covers

Helping me out today are Juliana Haygert, a new adult author with several published works, and Melanie Schulz, whose debut novel was released earlier this year. Neither of their covers were designed by me, but both struck me as covers I could do animations for. So I asked them if I could animate their covers, and they said yes! PLEASE click on over to see the cool animations :)

Morgan Media Launch: Morgan Media Does Custom Book Covers


"Quality author services at affordable prices"

Wooohooooo! I've been planning this business for a long time, and the launch is finally here! So exciting! This week, I'll be highlighting some of Morgan Media's services with the help of several other blogs. Today we're looking at ...

Custom Book Covers

To help me out, Morgan Media is featured today on the blogs of Kittie Howard and Marcio Goncalves. Kittie's novella, Remy Broussard's Christmas, was the very first cover I did, back in 2011. She liked it (yay!), so I then did the cover for her second novella, Rings of Trust, and now for her third, Bayou Princess, which is having its cover reveal TODAY in honor of Morgan Media's launch. Marcio is a fellow South African writer who recently published his first contemporary romance novel, The Venetian Violinist. The cover he's revealing today is a cover redo for the novel.
So PLEASE go and visit their blogs and check out the covers I did for them!

And have a glass of bubbly on your way out ;-)

Princes and Heroes from Animated Movies

If you're a regular visitor to this blog, you may be aware of the upcoming release of the second novel in the Creepy Hollow series, THE FAERIE PRINCE. Woohoo! Less than two weeks to go! And you may also know that in celebration of this release, there will be a blog fest of sorts, where you get to tell everyone who your fave fairy tale prince/hero is and why (any day between May 30th and June 2nd, although May 30th would be best).

To get you thinking about some of the possible candidates, I've found some pictures of princes and heroes from animated movies.



Prince Charming (Cinderella) | Aladdin (Aladdin),


Mr. Incredible (The Incredibles) | Prince Eric (The Little Mermaid

Woody (Toy Story) | Hercules (Hercules)

 Prince Adam/The Beast (Beauty and the Beast) | Li Shang (Mulan)


And, uh, did you know that many of these princes and
heroes have had "makeovers" as underwear models?! 
Yeah, they're looking pretty hot and hunky!


And what about the less traditional heroes, like Shrek and Sulley?
 



So many to choose from! 
Please join in and tell us who your favorite is on May 30th!
(or between May 30th and June 2nd, if you can't do May 30th!)

Morgan Media Will Be Launching Very Soon!

Oops, it's been almost two weeks since I posted something here! But I do sort of have an excuse ... I've been busy, busy, busy. Not only am I launching a book this month (which means the past couple of weeks have been full of editing, proofreading and formatting), but I'm also

<cue big announcement>

launching my own business!

Yup. Me = business woman. In pajamas! It's the best kind of business woman, in my opinion (although my auditor friend does like to tell me that one of the things she loves about her job is dressing up in smart suits).

Anyway, a few of you know about this business venture; most of you don't. It's called Morgan Media (an author services business), and it's something I've been planning for over a year now. Last year I didn't have enough time to get it going (teaching and writing put enough on my plate), and the past few months this year have been spent slowly organizing things while also writing The Faerie Prince. So now is the time!

Launch week is May 20th to May 23rd

Next week I'll be highlighting different services offered by Morgan Media on different blogs from Monday to Thursday. Book covers, book trailers and more. Please come by next week to check out those blog posts! For now, you can visit the website, "like" the Facebook page, and "follow" on Twitter.
Please, please "like" and "follow"! I promise to follow back ;-)
