Celebrating SCP’s 4th Anniversary!

Celebrating SCP’s 4th Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary, Secret Cravings! 

IMG_83173204311059

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on my blog, and I’ll tell you why–I’ve been simply fixing my life. I’ve been living with a lot of chaos, but now things are finally falling into place. I lost forty-five pounds, got healthy, moved into a new town home with my boyfriend (well, now fiancé), and yes, GOT ENGAGED! It’s been crazy, but I’m slowly coming back into the writing world.

I figured a great way to come back would be with a celebration and giveaway for my publisher! As a debut author, I had a difficult time finding a publisher who would give a newbie like me a chance. I would get rejection letters all with the SCPFansame response. Something along the lines of “We loved the story, but we don’t think it’s what would sell right now.” I was so upset. It wasn’t what sold? It was too original so it was rejected? It didn’t make sense to me. But Secret Cravings saw something in His Haven and embraced the originality. They encouraged the unique. They welcomed me and my words. And after His Haven was published and with weeks on the best sellers list, the readers seemed to welcome them, too.

Throughout my year signed with SCP, I’ve seen the company grow tremendously. My book is offered in many different formats and in stores. I am thankful to have had my start with SCP.

To celebrate SCP’s 4th Anniversary, I’m giving away a print copy of His Haven and a Krystal_FB_Timeline_A14_advert2handmade His Haven key chain!

Who knows. Maybe I’ll even throw in some bookswag, too.

In return, I’m asking if readers could like my Facebook page and comment something below. Ask me about my book, tell me what you like to read on blogs, or just say hi! Doesn’t matter to me. Just show that you stopped by. Don’t forget to add your email so I can contact you if you win!

Keep checking in for updates. I’m back in the writing world for good–I promise. I have a sequel to write and a shifter romance to finish (I only have a few chapters left!).

Also, if anyone is looking for a place to spotlight their books or new releases, check out my “contact Harper” page for details. All promotion here is free and designed to help small, budding authors.

Don’t forget to visit the other blogs on the hop to see what other SCP authors are posting! There’s a chance to win a Kindle Fire HDX! Find them by clicking the blog hop banner above.

***The blog hop and giveaways are over! The winner of my giveaway is storimom2! An email will be sent to you about your prizes. The winner of the Kindle Fire HDX will be announced on SCP’s blog. Thank you all for participating! 🙂 ***

Talk to you all soon!

    Congrats Harper!

  12. I know what you mean about real world chaos muting the muse. I’ve made a New Years resolution to unclutter my to do list so my characters have more freedom to play. It takes a lot of my time. Congrats and good luck. Happy birthday, SCP!
