I am writing this here because it will be a mouthful on Facebook. I never keep up with this blog. First I said Ordinary would be out last Fall. Then it was early 2014. Then March.
I expected to have Ordinary out by now.
I wasn't expecting everything that would happen over the past 9 months. A very trying pregnancy, deaths in the family, health problems, possibility of a sick baby, blood pressure, etc etc etc.
Life got in the way.
I've been disappointed in myself for awhile now, mad that I haven't released the book. But my health has been bad and I've been trying to take care of myself and the baby. In the past few weeks I've been battling high blood pressure. If you've ever experience blood pressure issues, whether in pregnancy or not, you understand how crappy it can make you feel.
Severe headaches that can't be controlled with medicine. Dizziness. Blurred vision. Nausea.
It makes it hard to work. The only cure for my blood pressure is to lay on my left side and drink water. Well, there isn't much I can do from being flat on my left side besides watch TV, sleep, and maybe prop my Kindle to read.
All that being said.
Ordinary will be released.... drum roll please....
MAY 1ST.
Covers are not my strong suit. I'm sure a publishing house would tear me to pieces. But really, all you care about is what's after the cover, am I right?!

Very excited about this book. Sorry to hear about your health problems with this pregnancy and glad you are taking care of you two... praying the remainder of your pregnancy is smooth! Looking forward to Ordinary and you are right, who cares about the cover. We just want to get our hands on the inside!!!
ReplyDeleteTake care of your self and that baby, being a MOM should be your 1st priority. We can wait as long as needed to read another one of your great books. Thanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteSuper excited about the book. Don't care about your cover. It goes with the rest of the series...with that being said...if you ever need a designer - CALL ME!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update. I know it will be worth the wait. Please take care of yourself! Sending good wishes for the final weeks of your pregnancy!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better! And I'm super excited about the new book!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better soon and that your baby will be wonderfully healthy! Like we've all said, you and the baby come first - even though we are all dying to read "Ordinary!". Take care and don't worry about us. We can wait.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon. I was put on bed rest for blood pressures when I was pregnant with my son so I know what your are going though. Take good care of yourself and I look forward to reading the next book when it is out (whenever that maybe).
ReplyDeleteSo happy you are releasing this book, but also super uber pooper scooper worried about you! You are in my prayers! Thanks for being so inspirational!
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to pre-order the book. Amazon and Barnes & Noble are not even showing that the book is coming out. Best Wishes

ReplyDeleteNew release date?
ReplyDeleteOh no...I just finished Book #2 (@ 3:44am this morning!) and rushed to get 'Ordinary' and it's not here or there or anywhere! I am now trying to patiently await better news of your health and families well being, (because I know that is first priority!) with the hopes that a new release date will be forthcoming. I do sincerely hope all is well with you and eagerly look forward to the conclusion of the Exceptional series.
ReplyDeleteYes surely i will think over it when i will be getting married..lol
