I’m so thrilled to
be part of Entangled Publishing’s project to raise money for Autism Speaks.
My novella, Tweet, was inspired by a real life
event. As my husband drove around looking for a restaurant, I pulled out my
iPad to search for the address. After finding it, I popped onto Twitter and began
surfing. I don’t know how, but I stumbled upon Satan’s Twitter account.
Seriously, the profile said, By clicking
follow you agree to bind your soul to Satan. Or something like that in 140
characters or less.
My husband and I
laughed and I said, “Wouldn’t it be funny if that was true?”
I froze with one of
those wide-eyed expressions a writer gets when a great idea pops into their
head. From that moment Tweet was
born. Though there are more Satan and social networking stories in my near
future, I had to offer this one up when Liz P. when she put out a call for the
Autism Project.
100% of profits go to Autism Speaks, an organization that helps
families by providing resources and information. It’s amazing to me how many
people are touched by autism and I’m so happy to give Tweet to this great venture.
Tweet Blurb:
When one time
ultra-shy girl, Faye Albert, decides to live a little, she inadvertently binds
her soul to Satan by following the Dark Prince on Twitter.
Now she needs to
break the contract or face eternal damnation. With time running out and her
desperation growing, Faye enlists the help of Christopher White, a gorgeous
photographer from work and her secret crush.
To sweeten the deal
Satan’s minion tempts her every step, offering her things she’s only dreamed
of. Will Faye be able to say no to a lifetime of earthly treasures and possibly
lose the only man she’s ever loved or will her leap of faith finally deliver
exactly what her heart has yearned for?

Isn't it funny how those crazy story ideas form?
My husband and I are like that too. We'll have some weird conversation and poof, lightbulb, I'll be like- hold on let me grab my notebook. LOL
I love when that happens:)! Thanks for having me, Roxanne.
