Hi all:

Sorry to crowd you all with so many posts but I’ve been having a few funny days, with travelling, trying to sort out the house, and a job offer that might mean (if it comes to pass) that I’ll have to take a bit of time off, at least initially from being everywhere. In the middle of this maelstrom and because one has to try everything, I suddenly decided to publish one of my stories that had done well in Wattpad but I never seriously thought about publishing it anywhere else. As I didn’t have a lot of time and I wanted to do a bit of a test, at the moment it’s only available in Amazon and will be available in Unlimited too, at least for 90 days (I’ve never had any luck with that, but). I decided to try a different persona too, and to offer it free for a couple of days (29th and 30th of July, although you know Amazon days are West Coast days, so do check later if not free when you try). So if you know somebody who might be interested in a YA story with quirky characters, friendship, romance and some emotional ups and downs…

 

We Are Family by Misty Pink (yes, me)
We Are Family by Misty Pink (yes, me)

 

Description:

Meet the Waltons. They arrive to Leamington, a sleepy town, and cause chaos and outrage. They are ‘weird’. According to some they are scandalous and indecent. But if you let them, they might steal your heart.

We Are Family. A Young Adult story of friendship, families and how you don’t always have to go far to find love.

Kim, a young girl, sees her quiet existence shaken by the arrival of the new neighbours, the Waltons, a family of hippy travellers whose lifestyle creates conflict and tensions in Leamington. Accusations of rape, teenage pregnancy, adultery, suicide…the newcomers pay a heavy price for daring to intrude in the ordered lives of the inhabitants of Leamington. But not all is bad, and Kim’s life is transformed for the better. Forever. Oh, yes, and she finds romance and love.

Thanks to all of you for reading, and don’t feel obliged to download and read, but if you know of anybody who might enjoy it, especially readers who like YA stories or YA readers, I’d be grateful for any shares, comments and CLICKS! I’ll keep you posted on my news and also on this experiment.

  1. Congrats, Olga!!! I remember you talking about this one. I didn’t know about your pen name… but I should’ve expected something about “Pink”.
    Huge hugs, my friend. 🙂

    1. Thanks, Teagan. To be honest I didn’t think too much about it and wasn’t even sure about a pen name (and I don’t intend to build anything much around it), but I’ll let her be the young me who was writing those stories. As my other story is taking a while to get ready I fancied giving this one a try. As I have realised, we don’t know what might strike a chord… Have a great weekend.

  2. Good morning, Olga…I do love ‘weird’:) Hopefully will read….meanwhile sounds like lots is going on. If you believe in astrological stuff….this is definitely time for new beginnings and innovation…..wishing you a wonderful weekend. Janet:)x

    1. Thanks, Janet. You’re very kind. I have a few unfinished stories but also two or three I wrote a long while ago that don’t necessarily fit into any of my usual writing… I think most of us are reinventing ourselves all the time. Have a fabulous weekend!

      1. Indeed we are…..which in my mind is very healthy:)

        1. Thanks, Janet. Have a beautiful weekend!

          1. Hi Olga…would you please remind me of the book I planned to order today August 1st? You had recommended to me, and I loved the look of it, but for the life of me can’t remember the title or author!!!! No rush…Janet. x

          2. Hi Janet. You mentioned ‘Wear and Tear’ (by Tracy Tynan) that was going to be available on the 1st of August but not sure if you had ordered it already or not. It’s a fabulous book for sure. I hope you enjoy it!

          3. Thank you, Olga. I had written it down somewhere, and then lost the piece of paper:)

          4. Always a pleasure. Let me know what you think!

  3. You’re amazing, Olga! Congrats! I’ll be taking a look on Amazon later. Sounds like my family . . . wink, wink. 😉

    1. I do like them a lot but things don’t go smoothly for them… (I’m sure your family didn’t get in so many troubles…:) It’s not high calibre but I thought it would probably lose something if I started making too many changes.
