I'm late, as always with these signing vlogs because I have so much footage to go through. Holidays with the Belles was hosted February 8, 2019. It was such a wonderful, well-organized event and I have nothing but amazing things to say about the ladies who put on these events! They do several per year! I'll post some links below to their facebook along with the bookstagrammers shown! Hope you enjoyed this vlog, and if so, let me know!
Welcome to another Q&A Monday where we chat and I answer your questions about self-publishing!

Pen names: Lyra Parish & Kennedy Fox (we're an author duo!)
I've been in the indie scene since 2011. I published my first romance novel in 2014 (Weak for Him). Under Kennedy Fox, we've made USA Today 4 times since 2017. With Lyra Parish, I've made top 100 several times on Amazon. I unpublished my Lyra Parish backlist in 2020 with zero regrets.
