Clicked the PUBLISH Button

It's the last ROW80 check-in and for those that are just now following me, ROW80 is a writing challenge where writers create their own measurable goals each round. This round, my goals were simple...to write everyday and publish PARADOX.

I am happy to report, I clicked the publish button late last night and PARADOX is now available!! I'm still waiting for it to go live on Barnes and Noble, but it's already on sale on Amazon! *happy dance* So for you Nook readers, it will be available sometime later today or tomorrow.

A huge thanks goes out to all my fellow ROW80 buddies who have stopped by and shown their support these last few months. There were times when I wanted to give up, but y'all kept me going! And thanks to all my readers who have also pushed me to continue on with my story.

To celebrate, I am going to take a mini-break until Round 2 (April 2) and tomorrow, I'm going to go see Hunger Games in IMAX! I really want to go to the midnight showing tonight, but I'm getting too old for that, so I'll hit the 10:30am show and skip all the crowds.

Don't forget to check out last night's post for a sneak-peak at PARADOX for insights into my madness!

  2. Whoooohooo! Congrats. Can't wait till I can say that myself, but I'll get there in good time.

    I'm going to see Hunger Games next week, hopefully after all the hubbub has died down. I'm too old to stand in line for hours. hahaha

    1. Couldn't have done it without you!! :)

      That's why I'm going to the morning showing. I hope kids don't skip on a Friday to see it! And if they do, they'll go see the afternoon one.

  3. I just finished paradox... I woke up this morning, checked amazon, and had a mini freak out. So I grabbed a pack of cigarettes and my kindle and went outside and read the whole book in one sitting. Once again, you've kept me completely entertained. I cant wait for the 3rd book in this series. My amazon review will go up as soon as I can collect my thoughts. :)

    1. You sound like me! I think I'll consider this the equivalent of a NYT rave review :) I'm glad you enjoyed it and I REALLY hope to get book 3 out sooner than I did with Paradox.

  4. What a great way to end Round 1, Claudia! Once pay day gets here, I'll be buying a copy of PARADOX. :D

    I'll be braving the midnight showing of The Hunger Games, which should be hilarious. It's going to be me, a bunch of grad school friends, and probably every screaming high school student in town. :P
