My Wife's 2nd Book Hits the Shelves.
One of my wife's life goals was to get two books she'd been working on published.
Many years on/off research and writing, rewriting and then a frustrating year of rejections from various publishers.
She was finally picked up by a new company, Anaiah Press.
They liked her first book so well they asked if she had more, her second was taken too.
The editors have told her that anything she writes they'll find a place for.
Her second book has just been released, it is titled Corroded, it is a Contemporary Young Adult/Fiction novel.
