A Glimpse Into An Author’s Life After The Novel Hits Shelves~

Hello, friends!

If you ever thought the author life was a glamorous one, please stop by and read my guest post so you can learn the truth!

From the guest post:

The glass tea dispenser fractured fifteen minutes before The Outcast’s book launch at my family’s business, Miller’s Amish Country Store, leaking the precious meadow tea my best friend had spent three hours boiling down to an amber-colored concentrate.

Always cool under pressure, I threw open the door to the store and charged past the baked-goods shelf, startling the customers who had chosen this inopportune moment to pull my mother aside and ask to order one of the barns she sells.

“I need a pitcher!” I screamed, then grabbed a glass vase and dumped out the synthetic flowers. “The dispenser broke. Tea’s everywhere!”

My mother’s employee cried, “Don’t use that vase! It’s cracked!”

So I set it back on the counter. My best friend said, “Go grab a bucket from the house!”

I sprinted through the storage room, slammed open the storm door, and darted toward the house. I seized a glass pitcher hiding under a stool in the kitchen, scrubbed it in the sink, and took it back to my best friend. She was on the front porch of the store, shaded by the awning, carefully ladling meadow tea into a plastic pitcher. She stopped when she saw my wild eyes and sticky hands.
