I’ve been reading the Road to Rocktoberfest series since it began, and loved the stories of the various bands and their journey to Rocktoberfest so I was thrilled to be invited to write a story for it this year.

A lot of my stories feature musicians, and so that part of it came naturally. However, it’s the first time I’ve done a pre-order without having finished writing the book first! I already had the release date so I counted back from that to work out how many words I needed to write a month to get it finished on time, as well as allowing my betas, editor, and proofers plenty of time to do their part. A word tracker kept me on target, with just 200 words to go for the week soon ending up being closer to 1K more being written.

Although I was on target, I heaved a sigh of relief when I uploaded the book a good three weeks ahead of time.

Never again, I told myself, and then I was invited to write something else for next year lol.

Part of me thinks I’m crazy, yet I remind myself that writing in a world shared by wonderful writers, and my guys meeting with theirs on page was such a buzz, why wouldn’t I do that again?

Coming 29th October

Divided Road
The Road to Rocktoberfest 2024

Blurb:
The chance of a lifetime or their final performance?

Owen Stanton has been a member of the Kiwi band Flightless since high school. So far, he’s managed to walk the fine line between playing fiddle for the band and pursuing his classical violin career.

An opportunity arises to audition for a prestigious string quartet, and Owen takes his family’s advice to go for it. After all, it’s not like he’s going to make the cut, right? And if he does, the decision won’t have to be made until after the band’s highly anticipated performance at a popular New Zealand music festival.

Jared Murphy joins Flightless when their keyboard player faces a family crisis and needs to take a break. Soon he and Owen are writing music together and creating something beautiful between them. It’s a shame it won’t last. After all, Jared’s only standing in.

When the once in a lifetime invitation comes for the band to play at Rocktoberfest, decisions need to be made, even if taking the right path may end up in divided roads.

Divided Road is a book in the multi-author Road to Rocktoberfest 2024 series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but why not read them all and see what trouble our bands get into next? Hot rockstars and the men who love them, what more could you ask for? Kick back, load up your kindle and enjoy the men of Rocktoberfest!
