I have some big news!

But first of all on a personal note. I wanted to say, thank you for reading my story. Writing is my absolute favorite thing to do. And I am so happy that you have been here reading it.
I hope all of you are having an amazing day.

Ok onto the big news!

I'm getting published!

I've been writing since I was very small (15). And what is happening is a dream come true. This is all because of you guys!

Because you guys are so awesome I will be giving away never before seen content! Including ultra shorts, and a prequel. (no more boring nights without reading material for you!) ;)
I promise you won't be disappointed and that this will be the best thing you have ever read!!

The book is going to be published on April 23, 2018.

I'm still here on Wattpad, but my publisher has asked me to take down every chapter but 10 (for you guys I did 20) before publishing for copyright issues. So forty chapters all together will be gone from here. Only ten will be gone from Inkitt and of course, you can buy the entire book!!!! (links in bio)

My publisher is setting me up with a fancy website, and they are going to be holding a cover contest.

That's right! And you can submit a cover, to become the official cover of the published book. And your name will be put in the book, and on the back of the physical cover of the book! (Your name on the cover of the book. You will be famous!). Here are the guidelines.

Just send the covers to my agent at ftwagent@gmail.com by April 8, 2018. The only requirements are:

Book Cover Guidelines
1. Know that if we choose your cover you will get credit ON the physical cover and inside the book. This can actually help you a lot as a graphic artist and bring you future work from us and other book publishers.
2. You will have to fill out a form that lets us have the cover.
3. You can not use any copyright images. You can use Royalty Free Images.
4. We need a high res format of the cover in JPG and Photoshop format, as well so that we can use it for the paperback version of the book.
5. Cover Image size should be 5.5 by 8.5 inches in 300 Pixels per inch resolution.
6. Hints...
The cover has to look good when Amazon Thumbnail size. The idea is that people WANT to click on it when they see the thumbnail.
The text needs to be readable.
You should use only 1 font.
The cover needs the title AND the author's name
7. The cover needs to have the Title The Vampire's Pet and the Author's Name Molly Stegall visible.
8. If your covers wins, we will do everything we can to use it. If it wins we will WANT to use it because that will give us the most future sales. BUT... You do need to know that there can be odd reasons why we might not be able to. For example, we might not be able to use the Photoshop file for some reason or we might find a copyrighted image in the cover design.
9. Submit your created cover on or before April 8, 2018.

Here is what I would want the cover to look like, however, if you have another idea go for it!
There r a few ideas
The first one is a guy holding a girl close to him - she's slightly scared or looking down and he has his mouth pressed close to or near her forehead. I would like them to be in the background and the area around them to either be misty or white. They can either be misty or clear. I would want the color or the font to be a dark red and in a readable cursive.
The second idea would be this. A guy is holding a small girl in his arms. She is slightly scared or burying her head into his chest. I would like the area around them to be white. The letters I want to be a dark red and a readable cursive.
Thx

By the way, this is NOT mandatory. This is simply something to get you guys involved in the launch because you guys have helped me a lot to get here.
I will be giving you updates as it all happens. Now, most of the time when people give updates on how a project is going (like getting a book published). They are really boring. BUT I WILL DO BETTER! You can be guaranteed to be LOL'ing on every update. :D

So stay tuned for more updates.

Thank you.

I'll see you in the next post. :)
