I made it!
I made it! I made it! I made it in the blog!!! La la la la la!
I’m a little technically challenged, so this is quite a thrill for me. Actually, if I manage to blog without totally screwing up, that will be the ultimate thrill!
What can I say? Little things excite me.
Something else that excites me is RELEASE DAYS!!!
And today I have a book out, yippee!!!

TAKE YOUR MEDICINE is a re-release, but I feel so much better about it this time around. I love love love my cover, and the story is so much tighter. I can really see where my writing has grown over the last 4 years. Good thing too, hahahahaha
I thought about putting the cover up, but I don’t want to push my technical luck any farther. I have the directions, but my eyes glaze over by about the third paragraph. I’ll figure it out eventually, but for now, if you want to see my awesome cover. . .

I plan on running a contest to celebrate my release so stay tuned to my website for more info on that. And enjoy a day of awesome books! It’s great to be out there with so many wonderful authors!!
Happy release day and happy blogging!
Ari

Congratulations on your release and on your first blog day. I have to get myself worked into the blog schedule too. A re-release is every bit as much an achievement as a first time release. When you edit and extend an older work, as you said, you find out how much you’ve grown as a writer, and the reader can be sure the story has been polished to absolute perfection.
Arianna – First, great job with your first blog…don’t feel bad I can’t put pictures in yet, either :)
Second – That is a great cover. I was showing the Samhain website and weblog to my father this morning and he commented on the prevalence of bare male chests. “Hey, that’s what women like.”
Best of luck with your release
Yes, you may assure your father women do like bare-chested men. Count me in for that!
Love the butt wiggle dance! And you call yourself technically challenged. For shame! I never even realized you could use parentheses like that. LOL
Big congratulations on the book too. That’s the real thrill of the day. :D
Ari, I like your title and you’re right about the cover. It’s fantastic. Congratulations on your release! And on blogging.
Congrats on figuring out the blog, Ari! <GGG>
