Hey gang! Absolutely thrilled to share yet another awesome author with you today. My pal (and many of yours as well) Shelly Arkon has published her debut novel, Secondhand Shoes. *WOLF WHISTLES & CLAPS*
I'm going to tell you how you can get your hands on a free eCopy of Secondhand today and tomorrow. Plus, there's a fun giveaway to enter!
But first, here's a little about the author and book:
En route to the honeymoon, she decides to listen after too many disagreements with her groom. It doesn’t pay to go along to make everyone happy.
But first, here's a little about the author and book:
Meet the Runaway Bride
The shoes didn’t fit. It was an omen. Eighteen year old psychic-medium-germ-a-phobe Lila should have listened to her ghostly Gram’s advice the morning of her wedding, “Take off that dress and those shoes. And run.”
En route to the honeymoon, she decides to listen after too many disagreements with her groom. It doesn’t pay to go along to make everyone happy.
Still in her wedding dress and shoes, she escapes out a diner’s bathroom window into the Florida woods despite her fear of snakes and germs with her dead Gram’s direction. So she begins a journey of finding her inner strength, putting her on a deadly run from her psychotic groom and his deranged friends.
Will she ever get past her fear of germs and snakes? Will she survive her honeymoon?
Meet Shelly
When she was nine, Shelly Arkon's mother advised her
not to write a novel because no one would publish it...but she wrote it anyway.
Shelly
Arkon has never stopped writing since she wrote that first novel as a child. In
spite of more family drama than most of us could handle—as the mother of five
daughters, drama is unavoidable--she's been writing most of her life. She says
most of these stories, written in longhand in spiral notebooks, have been about
vampires.
She now lives in New Port Richey with her husband and two
dogs. She’s also a member of Florida Writer’s Association and Writer’s of Mass
Distraction.
Currently, she’s working on a book series. It’s’about two grandmothers, one a New Age hippie, and the other, a Southern Baptist, their grandbaby, their grown children who are pill heads, their extended dysfunctional family, and a dangerous drug dealer.

DeleteThis is usually a 'No Ego Stroking' zone as we writers, like exotic zoo animals, tend to get a little out of hand when people feed our habits. However, Morgan is just so dang good at flattery I allow her to say nice things about us from time-to-time. ;-D
DeleteHaving had already read it, I can say that it's a great read! And Shelly is everywhere today!
ReplyDeleteYes. I am. The grocery store. The vitamin store. My car. The gas station.
