Writers Movement Guest Blog Appearance: Katie Salidas






Author Bio:


The youngest of four children, Katie has always had a desire to entertain. Since, early childhood, she's dreamed fantastical characters and scribbled them into pages of various journals and notebooks. Taking an interest in vampires, she devoured every book, featuring those blood sucking creatures, in any genre she could find.

It was only natural that a love of reading vampire stories, turned into a love to write them.



Katie is also a Las Vegas native, having grown up in the famed City of Sin. She loves to feature it as a recurring setting for many of her stories.



Hunters & Prey:

Becoming a vampire saved Alyssa from death, but the price was high: the loss of everything and everyone attached to her mortal life. She’s still learning to cope when a surprise confrontation with Santino Vitale, the Acta Sanctorum’s most fearsome hunter, sends her fleeing back to the world she once knew, and Fallon, the friend she’s missed more than anything.

Alyssa breaks vampire law by revealing her new, true self to her old friend, a fact which causes strong division in the group that should support her most: her clan.
Worse yet, her revelation entangles Fallon in the struggle between vampires and hunters and The Acta Sanctorum is ready to attack again, with a new army of hybrid creations: the Frenzy Soldiers.

If Alyssa hopes to survive and keep her mortal friend safe, she’ll have to be willing to make a deal with the enemy, and regain her clan’s support. It will take everyone working together in a precarious truce to fight against the Acta Sanctorum’s new threat.

Interview for Domestic Violence project

Interview for Domestic Violence project
By Author Tiffanie Minnis

I'm conducting interviews for my next book; Less Violence, More Love. I will send a email with 5 questions to those that are willing to participate. If you would like to remain anonymous, you will. If you will like to be quoted, you will. I'm looking to interview 50 women and/or men for this project. This is my way of showing the world the effects of abuse and what one goes through when involved in abusive relationships and how it's possible to escape and survive before it's too late. Please send an email to tminnis1981@gmail.com, inbox me on Facebook or DM me on twitter if you are interested or if you know someone that is.

Thank you,

Kick Starter Project

I launched my kickstarter project last night for my novel, DIVA and for my non-profit organization for Domestic Violence Awareness. I'm looking to raise $1,000 which will cover the re-launch of my novel and start up costs for my non-profit organization.


Novel re-launch will include; new high definition book cover and a music soundtrack recorded in a music studio. I would like to do anywhere from 3-5 songs which will be written and recorded by me. The songs will be in the hip hop genre (clean versions only) and will be related to domestic violence.


Non-profit organization; Domestic Violence Movement; Less Violence,More Love, which caters to both men and women that are or have been in abusive relationships. The organization will be based on prevention and education program, community outreach, housing, and children's program. The funding balance will go towards start up cost.


Rewards;


For anyone that makes a $1 pledge or more, they will receive a "thank You" letter from me, the author, along with a coupon code for a 20% discount on future book releases (one time use)


For anyone that makes a $20 pledge or more, they will receive an autographed copy of my novel, ~D.I.V.A.~ DOMESTICALLY INVOLVED IN VIOLENT AFFAIRS, along with a DIVA swag bag filled with goodies. Your name will also be listed at the end of the re-launched novel as a sponsor.


For anyone that makes a $50 pledge or more, they will receive an autographed copy of my re-launched novel, ~D.I.V.A.~ DOMESTICALLY INVOLVED IN VIOLENT AFFAIRS, which will include a new book cover and a music soundtrack with recordings by me along with a DIVA swag bag filled with upgraded goodies. Your name will also be listed at the end of the re-launched novel as a sponsor.



Even if you pledge as little as $1, I'm very grateful for your contribution. Funding is all or nothing, meaning if I don't reach my goal of $1000 by the end of 90 days, you will not be charged for your pledged amount and you will only be charged at the end of the 90 days IF my goal has been reached. You can follow me until the very end of all that I'm working to do. I will be held liable if I don't fulfill any agreements and you may contact me if you have any questions or concerns.


So with that being said, please tell your friends and spread the word. Thank you in advance for your support.
