Free Short Story: Not All Dragons Breathe Fire!

Hello, dear readers! Hope you’re all doing well! I don’t have any updates for you as far as my blog relaunch, but I wanted to drop in today to share some exciting news: I just finished setting up a landing page for my new author mailing list, and I’m giving away a free short story to everyone who signs up!

Not All Dragons Breathe Fire

Despite his best efforts, Fintan has never been an ordinary dragon. Breathing fire, battling knights, and kidnapping humans just isn’t for him. But when he crosses paths with a princess one day, he’s surprised when she begs him to kidnap her. Now Fintan finally has a chance to prove himself a real dragon, but he’ll soon find that being a real dragon may not be everything he always wanted…

If you’re interested in reading my new story, sign up for my author mailing list now through my new landing page!

Free Short Story: Not All Dragons Breathe Fire

I have plans to promote “Not All Dragons Breathe Fire” as a bonus short story for readers of The Silver Queen and Other Dragon Tales who choose to sign up for my list. In the meantime, it’s available to download and read now in PDF form.

I apologize that don’t have much of a welcome sequence set up yet, but I can only spend so much time trying to make everything perfect. I already spent the better part of this month writing and editing the story itself, so I’ve decided to share it now and adjust my course as I go.

And if you’re already on my list, don’t worry: I’ll be sending this story out to you soon! Of course, if you’re not sure whether you’re on my new list or not, there’s no harm in signing up through my landing page just to be safe. 😉

Thank you in advance to everyone who signs up and reads my story! I hope you’ll enjoy it! Happy reading!

One-Year Blog Relaunch Update!

Hello, dear readers! Hope you’re all doing well! I know it’s been a while since my last update, but I wanted to drop in today to give a quick update on the status of my blog relaunch!

It’s been about a year since I first announced I’d be updating and relaunching my blog under a new author name. Since then, I’ve made steady progress toward that goal, though there’s still plenty of work to be done before I’m ready to fully update my website.

Since my last update, there has been one major development: I finally changed hosting providers! I’ve mentioned before that I took advantage of that Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale on Namecheap last November, and last month I finally ditched GoDaddy and moved my blog to an add-on domain spot under the site that will eventually become my new blog: naomilastrucciauthor.com.

Hosting with SiteGround still isn’t in the cards, but at least now I have access to cPanel and PHP 7, which is a huge plus! I’m pretty much just waiting on a new site theme from my designer now. After she sends me a design and I finish writing content for the new blog, I can start making the switch to my new domain!

Once I have a clear relaunch date in mind, I’ll send out a final call for guest posts. In the meantime, you’re always welcome to sign up for my blog relaunch street team to stay in the loop!

Talk to you again soon! Until then, happy reading/writing!

Happy New Year! + New Author Blog Coming Soon!

Happy New Year, dear readers! I can’t believe we’re already in 2019!

January always brings with it the promise of a fresh start, and this year is no exception. I’m dropping in real quick today to let you all know that I’m finally getting ready to set up my new author blog!

This means I probably won’t be sharing any more updates until the new site is ready. I don’t know yet how long the migration/redirection process will take, but once all is said and done, you’ll be able to find me at naomilastrucciauthor.com!

If you’re interested in staying in the loop and helping me relaunch my blog, you’re more than welcome to sign up for my mailing list! (Note: this is a separate list exclusively for updates about my blog relaunch. After my new site is up, you’ll be invited to join my regular author mailing list for blog updates and news about my books.)

December Updates on My Books and Blog Relaunch + Guest Posts Still Wanted!

A belated Merry Christmas to you, dear readers! We’re nearing the end of 2018, which means it’s time for my final update of the year! It’s been a great month, and I’m excited to share what’s been going on in the month of December with my writing and my blog relaunch!

So to keep you up to date, here are some updates on my writing endeavors in December!

Updates on My Books

Well, I finally did it: December 2018 was the month I finally became a published author! Only a couple of weeks ago, I launched my very first book: a collection of fantasy short stories titled The Silver Queen and Other Dragon Tales. The book has since been downloaded almost every day and received over ten 5-star reviews across all the Amazon stores and on Goodreads! It still feels surreal to actually be published, but I’m so proud of myself for finally taking the leap!

As for my other books, I’m still working on my novel draft from NaNoWriMo, which I hope to finish soon. Once that’s done, I’ll be able to let it sit and focus on the short story series I plan to publish next. I’ve also been considering writing sequels to the stories in The Silver Queen after a few readers have told me they want to know “what happens next”, so that may be another future book to look forward to!

Updates on My Blog Relaunch and Rebranding Campaign

Since I snagged a deal for web hosting during Namecheap’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales last month, I’ve been considering moving this website over to Namecheap before I start redirecting everything to my new domain. I’m still doing my research, but hopefully I can start setting up my new blog as soon as next month!

In the meantime, you can find a temporary Coming Soon page at naomilastrucciauthor.com. Feel free to sign up to my new author mailing list there for updates about my writing and future books!

Also note that because I may be migrating my site soon, this will likely be my last update for a while. Once everything is settled, I’ll be getting in touch to direct you all to my new blog, so if you want to stay in the loop, make sure you sign up for my blog relaunch list below! Thanks!

To everyone who has already signed up for my blog relaunch team and sent me their guest posts, thanks so much for your patience! I hope to be able to showcase your awesome posts soon!

Reminder: Guest Posts Still Wanted!

And finally, this is a friendly reminder that I’m still accepting guest post submissions to help me promote my blog relaunch! There’s still plenty of space for more posts, so don’t be shy!

If you’re interested in submitting a guest post, be sure to read the guidelines first, then sign up for my list below!

Join My Blog Relaunch Street Team!

You should receive a welcome email plus another email in a few days with instructions on how to pitch me your guest post.

Thanks again to everyone who’s signed up to help me make my blog relaunch a success! You’re all awesome!

And that’s it for this year! I hope you all had a blessed 2018, and that your 2019 will be even better! Happy Holidays and have a wonderful New Year!

Post-Launch Update on The Silver Queen

Hello, dear readers! It’s been a little over a week since I launched my ebook of fantasy short stories, The Silver Queen and Other Dragon Tales, so I thought I’d check in today with a brief post-launch update!

Since launching last week, my book has gained 9 positive reviews on Amazon.com, plus a few more in the international stores and on Goodreads! I’ve also gotten a handful of sales and KU page reads after the free promo, which is actually better than I expected for my first published work. I’m now in the process of setting up AMS ads and planning for future promotions. So excited to see how my book fares in the future!

You can download The Silver Queen and Other Dragon Tales for $0.99 on Kindle or read it for free through Kindle Unlimited. If you choose to buy a copy (or you already have), thank you for your support! I hope you like my book!

P.S. If you’re interested in keeping up with my writing, you’re always welcome to sign up for my new author mailing list for updates about my upcoming books! Thanks!
