To day is the day! It is the day I have finally hit “publish” on my first novella in the Amazon kindle store.
It’s been a long and winding road, and the most terrifying part was hitting the “publish” button. I had a moment of panic (more like a couple of hours, really) where I second guessed everything. Was everything really ready? Was my book the best I could make it? What about that one part in that one chapter. I could probably spruce that up a bit, right?
And then I reminded myself that I felt exactly this same way when I published my first knitting pattern. It was terrifying, but when that first sale came in… I may have jumped around the room a bit. And that was nothing compared to the first time someone wrote me to say they loved my pattern!
So, here we are. My first kindle book is currently under review by the Amazon Kindle sprites, and I’m not sure when it will go live. When it does, though, I hope you’ll give it a chance. I think you might like it. 🙂
Nothing is quite what it seems…
Natalie Himura’s life is fairly normal. She’s an art student working part time at a local bookstore. What her customers and coworkers don’t know is that she can see the past with a single touch.
One night, she saves a cat from a group of bullies, and the next morning two men appear. They’re from the Sea & Storm Paranormal Investigation and Pest Control Agency, and they want to repay their debt to her.
Natalie joins them on a case — a widower keeps hearing noises in his walls. Before long, it’s clear that there’s something supernatural in the house… and it might be out to get her.
Left Behind is the first novella in Elanor Sakamoto’s new urban fantasy novella series — Sea & Storm Chronicles. In this book, the author draws on the rich tapestry of the urban fantasy genre and weaves in folklore and storytelling tropes that will feel familiar to fans of anime and manga, creating something entirely new. If you like Young Adult fiction, New Adult fiction, anime, manga, or urban fantasy, then you’ll love a story that rolls it all into one fun, fast-paced read.
