AWAKENINGS – Cover reveal! – Fiona McLaren Writes

When Brenda Drake organized the Pitch Wars competition this year, it was evident it was going to be a resounding success. Being a Pitch Wars mentor, I was eager to get in on the action and hopeful that I would get a great mentee to work with. And I couldn’t have been luckier! I snapped up author J.E Shannon and her amazing debut novel, AWAKENINGS!

Today, I’d like to help reveal J.E. Shannon’s cover for her soon to be published, debut novel AWAKENINGS, soon to be released by Entranced Publishing! So, without further ado, here it is:

Evie Shepard’s nightmare begins when she finds herself buried alive, with no idea how she got that way. As she struggles to remember what happened to her, she begins to notice changes about herself. Her senses are heightened, her movements are quicker, she is incredibly strong….her heartbeat has stopped. It’s then she makes a disturbing discovery. She wasn’t buried alive. She was murdered. Somehow she has come back…

And she wants revenge.

One question, if I may ask. Pitch Wars took place in November. So you went from:

– Rough draft
– Finished draft
– Agented author
– Author under contract
– Cover art ready

in the span of 5 months. That seems quick.

Am I missing something? (Just trying to grasp the biz.)

Michael,

Here's the lowdown. It went from:

Rough Draft
Finished Draft
Directly to small publisher

Since I was picked up by a small publisher directly is why it is moving so quickly. I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. 🙂 J.E. Shannon
