Secrets Inside Us

I just googled the title of my book and nothing came up. How's that for creativity? Not only is it one of a kind, it also correlates with the story perfectly. It might sound funny, but I'm kind of proud of that. I guess I'm just easily amused...

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM SIU:

1. BLOOD & GUTS
2. ROMANCE
3. SEX
4. LOVE
5. VIOLENCE
6. MYSTERY
7. SURVIVAL
8. HOPE
9. BETRAYAL
10. HUMOR

My friend, who has been unofficially critiquing my book, said that she re-read one part three times because it was so funny. That's really awesome! It really makes me feel like I can do this!

WHAT MAKES SIU DIFFERENT:

1. My supernatural character/s are just as vulnerable and fragile as the normal characters around them. They will never run at superhuman speeds, have superhuman strengths or hearts made of stone.
2. There's none of that fated gooey love stuff (Frankly, if you're fated to love someone, as far as I'm concerned, it's no longer true love) Don't get me wrong--it's a romance, but it's on a level that everyone can relate to and attain in their own lives, not just dream about reaching in some kind of fantasy.
3. Instead of adding a touch of reality to the paranormal, I tried to add a touch of paranormal to reality.
4. My characters are all delicious! Who wants to read a story about ugly people? Even the awkward and deformed will come off as hot and badass in my series!
5. There are no vampires. I've heard through the grapevine that people are becoming completely desensitized to them. I think that is a shame. Vamps are super sexy. I might write about vampires later, but not in this series. I also want to write a book about zombies, but every idea I get seems to already be taken. Anyways... I digress.

WHY YOU MIGHT HATE ME AFTER READING SIU:

1. I love cliffhangers!!
2. I'm not afraid to kill off the characters you love
3. Hopefully, I'll leave you unsatisfied and wanting for more... but in a good way.
