If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you know I’ve been working on a book for a few years (earlier attempts will never see the light of day). Back in August, I mentioned it was finally being published – and here’s the cover! I think the designer did a fantastic job and I’m really pleased with it.
Seventeen-year-old horror fan Cain Shannon thought helping a ghost find her killers would be the supernatural adventure of a lifetime. Now, he just hopes to survive long enough to protect his family and friends from her.
A bet between friends goes horribly wrong, resulting in Sarah’s death. When she returns to seek justice against those responsible, Cain agrees to help her. But when he discovers Sarah has been hijacking his body, he realizes she wants retribution instead of justice.
Terrified of what could have happened when he wasn’t in control, Cain commands Sarah to leave his house – but exorcising her isn’t that easy. She retaliates against her murderers in bloody, horrific ways, each death making her stronger, then sets her sights on Cain. With the help of friends, Cain fights to save himself and his loved ones and searches for a way to stop Sarah before she kills again.
The paperback copy of Sarah is scheduled for publication December 1st and the ebook December 7th, both available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Currently, preorders are available with a 10% discount through the publisher’s website HERE.
Sarah is a YA horror/thriller laced with some humor. I’m taking requests for Advanced Reader Copies, so if you’re interested, please email me at tpolen6@gmail.com – I only ask that you review it after publication. I have a PDF, but if anyone knows a quick way to convert, I beg you to share it with this computer skills-challenged individual!
Converting from PDF is a royal pain, but you can try it with the free program Calibre. I’ll be interested in an ARC, but I’m not able to email you ATM.

Found this one in the spam folder too. I used Calibre, but it corrupted the mobi – haven’t gotten any comments back about the epub, so not sure if that one worked either.

Congratulations, Teri! (I know all too well how long it can take to finish a novel. I have so many waiting… Sigh.) The cover is terrific — definitely creepy! The book sounds very exciting. Wishing you huge success. Mega hugs

Wow, that is one creepy cover, Teri. I’ll have to put this one on my radar.
As far as converting your PDF, you can download Calibre at https://calibre-ebook.com/ It’s a free program that converts files to other formats. You can use it to convert your PDF to mobi (Kndle) or epub. I use it for converting my Word doc files which it also does. Hope that helps!

Thanks, Mae! I have Calibre – have converted PDF to mobi, but didn’t know it could also do epub.

P.S I like the book title, I know it caused you some trouble but this is simple and works, sometimes simple is best.

I was down to the wire with the title. Looked at my bookshelf, saw Carrie, and had an epiphany. You’re right – sometimes simple works best.

Cool cover and your synopsis sounds awesome! Congrats! 🙂 I’m also a writer. I’m releasing my new book campaign later today on my blog. It’s kind of scary. Don’t you think? It makes me so nervous but more excited than nervous. There are so many things to consider that I’m afraid I’ll miss one of them. Good luck with everything. 🙂
