Please have a relaxing, fun, and rejuvenating Christmas and I hope 2018 will be even better.

Brief Hiatus

posted July 19, 2017

Just a heads up that I’ll be going radio-silent for almost three weeks. I will be serving on a mission trip in Korea (South, not North lol) to work with kids and will be unable to connect with you. So if you email me, tag me, or comment on a post, please don’t think I’m ignoring you! I will respond as soon as I can upon my return. But also, I admit that even if I did have internet access I would still be choosing to drop off the grid for those three weeks because if I’m distracted by the internet and work then I can’t be wholly focused on the present and the people around me.

I’m sorry to be dropping off the grid but this is important to me. I look forward to hearing from you all and (if you’re also a blogger) catching up on all your wonderful posts that I’ve missed.

Cheers,
Angela

RoseBlood Book Blitz!

posted January 11, 2017

I am so excited that ROSEBLOOD by A.G. Howard releases today and that I get to help share the news!
If you haven’t heard about this epic book by A.G. Howard, be sure to check out all the details below. I’m a massive fan of The Phantom of the Opera musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber so of course when this book popped up on my radar I was beyond excited to read it (seriously, just say the word and I’ll sing the whole musical for you including the instrumentals). Howard gives this story plenty of unique twists that I think are going to be absolutely incredible.

This blitz also includes a giveaway for a signed ROSEBLOOD poster and a mask courtesy of A.G. and Rockstar Book Tours. So if you’d like a chance to win, enter in the Rafflecopter at the bottom of this post.

But once he was just a young man who dreamed of leaving his rigid life behind to chase adventure in faraway lands. Nothing could stop him—until he met the one girl who would change everything…” -via Goodreads

Nicole was such a lovely lady and so much fun to chat with!…We both talked a lot about how we love character development and how intriguing it is to read the journey of how a character becomes who they are…Who was Blackbeard before he was the fearsome pirate?…

Blog Tour | Exclusive Interview

Interview with Lena Coakley!

An interview between pooled ink blogger Angela Jones-Cuéllar and author Lena Coakley on her new novel THE WORLDS OF INK AND SHADOW (released on January 5, 2016)

Worlds of Ink and Shadow_custom flower

Q1: Worlds of Ink and Shadow is a book written in beautiful prose that weaves together magic and fantasy with an almost biographical look into the Brontë siblings. How did this idea come to you to fuse these ideas into a historical fantasy?

A: Thank you! Because the novels of the adult Brontës are almost entirely realistic, I was very surprised to learn that there were so many…

Amazon Associate!

posted on December 20, 2015

Hello everyone!

I’m pretty excited to announce that I’m officially an Amazon.com Associate! Hooray!

…okay but what does that mean?

Well I’ll tell ya. It means that whenever you purchase an item from Amazon.com using one of my special links I get a few pennies tossed my way. Using my links does NOT cost you anything at all! It simply notifies Amazon.com that you were referred to their site by me and as a thank you they give me a tiny percentage of any sales made by someone using my links.
