Endings and Beginnings


Feb 10 2010, 12:01 am in , ,

So here it is…my very first blog post on Addisonfox.com

I’ve been secretly dreading this post (seriously…my most awesome web designer, Liz Bemis, has wanted it for 6 weeks so we can launch the site.)  But the thing of it is, I have struggled terribly with what to write.  Writing 2 books back to back was easier than this blog post.

Seriously.

And then, in a moment of blazing clarity in front of morning TV, I realized this post was all about endings and beginnings. As I watched Diane Sawyer say her farewells on Good Morning America, I realized that each thing we end also allows us to go off and begin something new. The idea fest continued as I watched my best friend graduate from law school. Add in a move and a new day job of my own and, well, I had my post.

So here it is. The end of my life as a fairly anonymous writer and the beginning of my life in the blogosphere.

I promise this will be a place to celebrate books and words and authors.

I promise to blog as often as I can (which doesn’t mean every day, but it also doesn’t mean 6 weeks worth of wait as poor Liz has had)

Finally…I promise to have fun and make this a place you’d like to visit again.  I landed the most awesome gig in the whole wide world – I get to make up things for a living. I’m a lucky girl.

I am so grateful to have you join me. Welcome!!

I love this site, Addison! Blue is my absolute favorite color. And I’m putting your book on my must-buy list, it sounds fabulous…congratulations!

addison says:

Thanks, Diana!

I am SO, SO, SO excited with Liz’s work – I LOVE BEMIS PROMOTIONS!! And yes, that is a shameless plug. :-)

I am just not a visual person and, with very little helpful direction from me, Liz brought the site to life.

And thanks so much for the excitement about the book!

Hi, Addison! Gorgeous, atmospheric site. I love the dude in the top-left. I do believe he made me gasp.

Jamie:

You’re not alone! When Liz sent me the prototype to review it was like – oh wow!!! :-)

Hi Addison — your new site is gorgeous and inviting. I feel like I can make myself right at home. :) Congrats, and I can’t wait to read WA.

Anne

addison says:

Thanks, Anne!

And thanks for your kind words about WA. I am SO excited I finally get to share Brody with everyone. It feels like I’ve been hoarding my Leo to myself for far too long!! :-)

Hi, Addison!

Your site looks amazing! Well done to you and Liz. I’ll be back to visit for sure.

I’m so looking forward to reading your series.

addison says:

Thanks, Vanessa!

Isn’t Liz the most amazing, incredible woman?!!?!!!

And thanks for your kind words on the series. I can’t believe it’s 2 1/2 weeks away until WARRIOR ASCENDED is on bookshelves!

Addison

Welcome to the world of blogging, Addison. I’m so glad to see you here and so excited for your first release, coming in just a few short weeks!

Addison Fox says:

Thanks for stopping by, Tracy! You’ve been a supporter of the Warriors from the first. :-) It means so much to me.

Addison

Wow, Addison, I love the look of the site. And thank goodness for the countdown app on my iPhone. Only 17 days 18 hours and 59 minutes before I walk into a bookstore on March 2 at 10:00 am to purchase my copy of WARRIOR ASCENDED. Can NOT wait!

Congratulations!

Addison Fox says:

Well, isn’t that a funny coincidence….because I’ve got my countdown counting down for PASSIONS OF A WICKED EARL and PLEASURES OF A NOTORIOUS GENTLEMAN!! :-)

Addison
