    Two years ago today, this book launched into the w Two years ago today, this book launched into the world. And I distinctly remember, that afternoon, I bawled my eyes out. Not out of relief or happiness, but out of disappointment. ⠀ ⠀ I had worked my ass off to launch this book--the whole series, really (I was rapid releasing). I'd spent thousands of dollars on amazing covers, reviews, promo tours, I'd spent months marketing and selling preorders, creating a custom book box...I literally combed through a list of every library in the country and sent out 500 handwritten postcards to YA librarians asking them to check out the series. I was on a mission. I knew the series was special and I was SO certain it was the thing that would launch my writing career. But when launch day came, I didn't sell nearly as many books as I hoped. When the next books in the series came out, they didn't sell how I wanted either. It was devastating. My one consolation was that I had written a series that I loved. So at least I had that. ⠀ ⠀ I licked my wounds and moved on, writing more books, pivoting into other genres. I marketed the series from time to time, but mostly just let it be. But something funny started to happen. Ever so slowly, the series started to sell. Readers loved it how I was so certain they would. They bought all the books, they raved about it to their friends. Slowly, over the last two years, the Confectioner Chronicles has become my bestselling series. I looked today out of curiosity, and The Confectioner's Guild has over 400 reviews. Thats a lot! The series is doing well enough that I can finally justify writing a new book in the world, something I've wanted to do since the beginning. ⠀ ⠀ I've had my share of disappointments and tears in this business, any writer who's been around for a while has. Your skin gets tough and it becomes harder to keep hope alive. But I guess I share this to say that sometimes success comes on slowly, in increments so small you hardly even notice. I could have given up on Wren and the rest of the Confectioner's Guild crew two years ago, but I'm really glad I didn't. #confectionerchronicles #amwriting

    Hi there! I’m Claire, and I write YA and Adult f Hi there! I’m Claire, and I write YA and Adult fantasy, plus contemporary and paranormal romance. YA Fantasy will always be my first love though (cuz it has angsty romance and magic, obvi. And dragons). I’m excited to #findmywritingcommunity (mega thanks to @adrienneyoungbooks and @kristindwyer for setting up this great idea) because writing can be super lonely at times! Writing, and getting published, are both an uphill battle and no one gets it like other writers do. I’m self published (14 books and 9 novellas published!) but have two books I’m currently querying to agents (Ultimate goal is to be a hybrid author who pubs trad too). I’m looking to level up my writing craft and would really love to find some more advanced writing buddies who are further along in their journey (no offense to you fresh faced newbies, I just need some grizzled veterans who have spent a little time in the trenches 😅) to be critique partners with and to really support each other in building robust, sustainable writing careers. Beyond that I’d love to be able to celebrate our wins, commiserate our losses, and even get together for writing retreats if this Covid business is ever over! On the personal side, I live in Seattle, have two dogs, am really into astrology/spirituality/meditation and love to hike/camp/trail run/do all the outdoorsy stuff! Can’t wait to meet ya! ❤️
