Hey guys! Today I have Nicole Williams here with a guest post on her amazing book Crash! :) Enjoy!
How was your writing and
publishing process for Clash different from Crash, seeing that Clash was
released about two months after Crash? And seeing that there was no intention
for a book two when Crash was released?
—I spent
almost a year going back and forth on Crash but with Clash, the story poured
out of me. I couldn’t type fast enough. Once I committed to writing a second
book in the series, I buckled down and got it done. I woke up a couple hours
before the kiddo woke up, stayed up a couple hours after bedtime, and snuck in
an hour or two during naptime. I was utterly drained when it was done, but I
loved the story and I hoped the readers would too. After that, my editor, cover
designer, and book formatter were wonderful. They worked as fast as they could
to get Clash ready for publication and, when all was said and done, Clash went
live a couple of weeks before my goal even.
About Crash:
Southpointe High is
the last place Lucy wanted to wind up her senior year of school. Right up until
she stumbles into Jude Ryder, a guy whose name has become its own verb, and
synonymous with trouble. He's got a rap sheet that runs longer than a senior
thesis, has had his name sighed, shouted, and cursed by more women than Lucy
dares to ask, and lives at the local boys home where disturbed seems to be the
status quo for the residents. Lucy had a stable at best, quirky at worst,
upbringing. She lives for wearing the satin down on her ballet shoes, has her
sights set on Juilliard, and has been careful to keep trouble out of her life.
Up until now.
Jude's everything she needs to stay away from if
she wants to separate her past from her future. Staying away, she's about to
find out, is the only thing she's incapable of.
For Lucy Larson and Jude Ryder, love's about to
become the thing that tears them apart.
