Cover Reveal, Excerpt & Giveaway: Arise (Arson Saga, book #3) by Estevan Vega

ARISE Arson Saga #3 by Estevan Vega EXCERPT: Adam wasn't breathing. But he had bled enough for Emery to officially reach the point of total panic. His blood was all over her hands. The stain had crept beneath her fingernails. He looked so fragile, and his skin was turning pale. Why on earth wasn't he breathing? Had he lost too much of himself? Had he sacrificed too much energy during the fight? The shaking wouldn't stop anytime soon, Emery knew that much. She couldn't handle this. She wasn't good at coping with situations where people she cared about just stopped breathing. Her mind returned to that night when her cousin had taken too many pills. Then it fled to Mandy’s beach, that stupid party she never should’ve gone to. Arson went nuclear then collapsed. He’d stopped breathing too. Maybe that was how it worked with special abilities.

(Austin made my super-cool blog banner!)  Here's a little Q and A: What genre have you not yet written but really want to try? I am aching to try my hand at a high fantasy! It’s going to take a little convincing, but I want to pitch my excellent editors Jean Feiwel & Holly West, that I write a fantasy trilogy in a world with a kind of liquid-metal cyborg dragons. Thinking back to the way beginning, what’s the most important thing you’ve learned as a writer from then to now? Don’t let yourself be distracted by the publicity aspect of a career as a novelist. Yes, it’s important to promote your work, but if you allow it to take too much of your time, your work will suffer. Story has to come first. And if you clutter up your brain with marketing-this and giveaway-...
