My how time flies! 2013 has been one of the best years ever! At the beginning of this year I made a new year’s resolution and goal finishing my novel, finding an agent, and get it published. I'm happy to say that I met my goal and my first novel "Omerta Affair" is out today.
The new year’s start out with a bang, as I met someone who is playing an big role, my wonderful Agent, Miss. Iris, thru e-mail buying a t-shirt, we hit it off right away and she asked me when I was done with my novel she wanted to see it. All thru January, February, March, April, and May my head was down finishing Omerta Affair. Only took time off to celebrate my birthday in the beauty of the magnificent Sedona, Arizona.
I completely finished my novel around June and I sent it off to that agent that was waiting to see it. Three weeks I've lived with excitement and nervous until one night I got an e-mail from her telling me that she liked the my book and want to meet with me. That's how I got Miss. Iris to be my agent.
It's was a very hot summer here in Las Vegas NV, over 111% each day. I took a wonderful vacation with my beloved family to the beach, escaping the heat for a few days. On July 20 Omerta Affair was release on paperback on Amazon.com.
In September, I went to the very first Mob-Con ever, with my book. There I met some amazing and interesting people and made friends with them. I have a very wonderful time at mob-con and I am looking forward of going back to it next year. Fall came and I have two book-signing events that went well. Selling a few books and getting my book out into the world.
This Thanksgiving I went to Charleston South Carolina! While I was there I walked the Atlantic Ocean for the first time. I went to a plantation that was still working, that was very awesome, and walked the down town main street.
As I looked back on 2013 I met a lot of people, made friends, have fun times, yes 2013 was a grand year. I'm looking forward to 2014 I see nothing but great things are going to happen.
I wish all my Facebook friends an great and wonderful holiday and an amazing new year, 2014!
