A few years ago, I signed up for a Writer's Digest on line workshop. Part of that workshop was mingling and meeting other participants. Fatefully, I met one of my very best critique buddies, C.C. Dowling. She and I have shared highs and lows of this publication journey, and for her, this is a loooong time coming. I'm so excited for her, I can't even--C.C.'s debut came out a few days ago, and I think everyone should know and buy it, of course.
Conduit
When college senior Jane Lamb dies suddenly, she
discovers that the afterlife is less pearly gates and fluffy clouds and more
standing in line at the DMV. But before she can spend eternity lamenting over
her short, unremarkable life, she’s offered a do-over—as a Conduit, a
reincarnated messenger contracted to reap souls.
Determined to do things right the second time, Jane
takes the job and reincarnates as eighteen-year-old college freshman Liv
Hartley. Only, the excitement for her new life doesn’t last. There are
consequences to bearing the coveted infinity symbol tattoo marking her as a Conduit,
and Liv quickly finds that getting a second chance doesn’t mean getting a
better one. Possessive demons, stolen assignments, and a love life that’s
decidedly complicated are all a far cry from the mundane existence Jane led.
But with more questions piling up than bodies, there’s only one thing Liv knows
for sure: life doesn’t get any easier after death.
Filled with sparkling wit, conflicted romance, and
more spirit than a haunted mansion, Conduit is a fun-filled paranormal
that explores the idea of regret, love, and what we would give to live twice.
Author Bio:
C.C. Dowling is an author who writes everything from
gritty urban fantasy, to paranormal sci-fi, to steamy contemporary erotic
romance (under a pen name of course!).
C.C. shares her love of writing
with her love of singing, music, and science. She spent the first half of her
college life performing, and the second half in a lab.
C.C. currently lives in America's finest city, with
her husband (the financial shaman), her two children (who love to play in the
yard with the faeries), and her very real pet dragon (who guards the perimeter
of her house at night).
When she’s not working or
writing (which is still technically working), C.C. can be found playing a round
of disc golf, or desperately trying to figure out which pair of sandals are the
most appropriate for the harsh Southern California winters.
You can find C.C. on
Twitter @CCDowling, at her website [www.ccdowingauthor.com], and
on her official author Facebook group, Misfits
& Mayhem [www.facebook.com/groups/DowlingMisfits/].
She'd love for all the misfits to join the mayhem. Also, get the latest release
news by signing up for her newsletter [http://www.subscribepage.com/CCDowlingNewsletter].
