On the Importance of Community

Wanna hear something cool? Shadows on Snow is still ranking, 10 days after release, in three different categories on Amazon. While that’s not long-term results, it’s a big thing for me. To date, my new releases have gottenĀ a big bump on release day, then tend to fall away after three days or so. Yay for progress!

But that’s not really what this post is about, although it is related. How? I’m getting there.

I’m firmly convinced that the only reason this book has done so much is because of the people around me that have supported, shared, or otherwise helped out with Shadows on Snow. Today, I’m going to talk about that a little.

Cover Reveal and Giveaway – RELEASED by S. J. Pajonas

10.22.2013 by Starla Huchton // 1 Comment

We interrupt this Month of Thanks to bring you something new and shiny!

A few months back, I met a very nice person by the name for S. J. Pajonas. What I discovered is another author writing New Adult Science Fiction Romance! Whee! It’s great to meet a kindred spirit, and I was happy to include a small sample of REMOVED (book 1 of the Nogiku series) at the end of the ebook version of NEMESIS.

Pajonas’ series is sci-fi with a heavy influence from the Japanese culture. Here’s the info for book 1: [Read more…]

Aliens Amongst Us

SFR Brigade Midsummer Blog Hop

Greetings, Starfighter!

Welcome to my stop on the SFR Brigade’s Blog Hop. If you haven’t come by this post as part of the blog hop, you can read up on what this is about by clicking the banner at the top of this post or here.

The theme this year is Out of This World. After careful consideration, I decided to put my own spin on it, by talking about how alien our own planet can be sometimes. Specifically, and since it pertains to my current SFR series, the amazing, bizarre forms of life in our oceans.

More Writing, More Travelling

06.18.2013 by Starla Huchton // Leave a Comment

We are halfway through the year, a mere six months. It’s been an amazingly productive time for me, and not only because of having three books done in the Endure series.

If you’ve been watching my Twitter feed or kept an eye on my WIP widgets in the side bar on this site, you know which project I decided to work on after finishing the first draft of Progeny. For NaNoWriMo 2012, I worked on a story that had about 23k words already on it. I talked about this a great deal on the Roundtable Podcast’s 4-writer project for that month, and you can listen to me talk about the premise for Apprentice beginning here. I ended up with an additional 66k+ words for that month, but the story wasn’t finished.
