Now and Again Valentines- Happy Valentine’s Day!

Posted February 14, 2016 by Jennifer Ellision in blog, Books, new adult / 0 Comments

Today, we’re playing around with some Now and Again Valentines. But these Now and Again Valentines aren’t the usually mushy-gushy Valentines.

Let me explain why: my favorite Valentines have always been unconventional fandom ones, such as these.

To that end, I created a couple of “unconventional” Now and Again Valentines, just for fun! So, I wanted to create a round-up of some of my favorite quotes to make some funny Now and Again Valentines. Because romance can be funny, yo.

Now and Again is still on sale for $0.99 until tomorrow!

In 2010, I signed up for NaNoWriMo in an attempt to write my first novel, Now and Again. It… went. Basically, I was frustrated with my inability to do the story in my head justice.

I’d thought often of that first attempt to write a book, usually cringing as I remembered feeling frustrated in front of a computer screen. Regretting that I couldn’t give Em and Cole the ending that they deserved or their introduction to the world. Maybe it was the distance from the manuscript that I’d been able to gain with time, but I liked the book. Sure, it needed a complete rewrite, and […]

Now and Again – reveals galore!

Posted October 5, 2015 by Jennifer Ellision in blog, cover reveal / 4 Comments

Happy Monday, my friends! I’ve been quiet on the blog– but I have a good excuse. I’ve been working my little butt off in order to get Now and Again ready for my readers by October and I’m pleased to say it’s nearly there! So, in this post, I’m not just revealing a release date. I’m also revealing the blurb. I’m revealing the trailer. And I’m revealing the cover! Let’s get started. First off, let’s have a blurb, shall we? Unemployed. Broke. Maid of Honor. All (unfortunately) words that describe Em Hayes. Without any job leads in San Francisco, Em caves to her mother’s promise of free rent and returns home. Her best friend, Nikki, couldn’t be more thrilled. Em’s degree in Event Management is gathering dust, and what better way to put it to use than planning Nikki’s wedding? […]
