I have just completed my One Vintage Heart Blog Tour showcasing the talented authors associated with 5 Prince Publishing! Today, I’m excited to be part of the Next Big Thing Blog Hop thanks to the lovely invitation of Sarah R. Yoffa!
Welcome to my blog post on my ‘Next Big Thing’! I’ll be presenting questions and answers about my current WIP in paragraph form. Hope you enjoy finding out a little bit more of my future works.
The working title of my new book is: “Calee Martinez, Sleuth by Design–Case #1 Route 66 and the Vintage Victim. I got the idea for the book when my husband and I were traveling this summer! We love to take car trips and this past year we were able to take a very relaxing drive to Florida. First, we spent time in Daytona Beach and then we went on to Palm Beach. Usually, when we’re in the car I get inspiration and feel so close to the idea of the open road and what it has always meant to be able to start driving and follow your dream.
After a few days in Daytona, the creative juices started to flow and I thought of the idea of my main character and the romance of Route 66. I watched the T.V. show as a kid and have always wanted to drive cross country. The idea for my main character, an interior designer, Calee Martinez came from my love of interior design and love of all things vintage. The idea of her finding the identity of our cold case victim and marrying that with a look back to vintage Route 66 was very compelling to me!
My book is in the genre of fiction: mystery and romance. If I could cast the movie, I would pick Mila Kunis, Emma Roberts or Jennifer Lawrence to play my main character, Calee. I would probably pick Teddy Sears, Max Carver or Robert Pattinson to play Steve.
Describing my books in ten words or less: Mystery, Romance and Adventure down America’s most iconic highways!
My book will be published as all of my works are through a small independent publishing company, Annie Acorn Publishing, LLC. It’s a collective group led by Annie Acorn, a successful indie author.
The first draft of this work will be complete by the end of the month, but I have been working on it for the past six months.
My love of decorating, all things vintage and love of a good mystery were all factors contributing to the overall concept. The historical significance that I will bring in about the road should pique the readers interest.
So there you have it. It’s a small glimpse into one of my future works to be released early in 2013!
