Finding new authors is hard. Gimmicks are everywhere. Catchy sprayed edges, beautiful artwork that may or may not relate to the story's content, and free paraphernalia abound. Don't get me wrong, I will buy a book for the pretty cover and free matching bookmark, but sometimes I want to get a feel for the author's style before I commit to a purchase.
This is why I have a lot of writing available for free through Wattpad and Amazon KU (Kindle Unlimited). I want to give readers a taste test so they can decide for themselves if they want to invest in me. If they read my free work and decide it's not for them, no harm was done and no money was lost.
The following are short snippets of what I offer for free to my readers! Click on the links and read for yourself!

"That
night, twelve years ago. The memories flashed briefly in her mind; a

suspension bridge above the Reedy River."
When Tabitha returns to
her hometown of Greenville, South Carolina for the holiday break, she
learns Russell Larson's band, Heathenauts, will be performing a concert
at a local music bar. She doesn't expect to reconnect with Russell.
She's content to follow - stalk - him from afar on social media and
internet news platforms. From the varsity basketball senior to the
pseudo-famous indie-rock star, Russell has always been a fantasy. When
he recognizes her at the bar and invites her backstage, Tabitha's shy
high school demeanor threatens to return. Will she let Russell have the
kiss she denied him twelve years ago?
Russell Larson doesn't do
anything halfway. He's all in with whatever he sets his mind to.
Reconnecting with Tabitha, is all consuming, overwhelming, and love
feels instant, but he's pushed women away before with his suffocating
emotions. He's been hurt before too. His experiences from the past do
not stop him from asking Tabitha to join him and his band on his
European summer tour within a day of reconnecting with her. Will he
convince her to join him? Or will it be like high school all over again?
Russell refuse to go another twelve years without her.
