I've been asked quite a bit lately how I'd describe the way I wrote this book and how it's different than the traditional love story. Actually a couple of the book reviewers already picked up on it and mentioned it. Most romance novels/love stories are where a couple meets, something goes wrong, they break up, they end up together again. Now, I wasn’t trying to reinvent the wheel, but in a sense I wanted to turn that formula on its ear. The route I took was that of a roller coaster. There is a build-up and admittedly it is a little slow at the beginning, but once the action begins, it's an emotional ride so hang on!

I also wanted to mention that being at about 300 books so far sold, I have more good family and friends than I realized and none of this is possible without them. I mean, I’m a big dude that likes football and whiskey, not exactly the stereotypical romance author. So putting myself out there was extremely scary. Granted my background in life has given me an exceptionally tough skin, but these people were those I trust in my life beyond any others and they have offered nothing but support. In a polarized world, that’s a testament to the people I hold dear and where I’m from. Thank you times a thousand for helping me chase this dream!

My book, Love in the Time of Corona, takes place primarily in Minneapolis, MN. The framework for Hayden’s story is loosely based on my time there. #bookstagram #instabooks #readersofinstagram #newreads #newreleases #cjloomis #debutnovel #hopingforatrilogy #booksbooksbooks #romancebooks #minneapolis #plymouthmn #maplegrovemn #lutsen #minnesota #quarantinereads #hayden #sloane #❤️ #loveatfirstsight #didntseethatcoming #😷 #amazon #kindleunlimited (at Minneapolis, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCHRL14JgUF/?igshid=1tyseydfxm3ln

This book is AMAZING! Check out the reviews for Love in the Time of Corona!

This whole process was extremely daunting, but you don’t realize it if you just take it as it comes and roll with it. In hindsight, it’s a beast, but SO worth it.

A few things I did out-of-order and I’ll fix next time (if I write another book). Then I looked into making it an audiobook and what that would take due to all the feedback from beta readers that said they think it should be. So I found an affordable way to do that. Through that process I submitted a small snippet of the story and then voice talents send you “audition tapes.” That is how I met the amazing woman Donna Frank who is giving my written word life through her amazing talent. Not only is she gifted, but also just an incredibly nice person. She has bent over backwards at every turn to do this quickly and properly. You’ll have to let us know what you think of it.

“He hurt. He hurt so badly. He wanted to scream and pound his fists. Instead, he silently let the moment overtake him. Through bloodshot and blurry eyes, the waterworks wouldn’t turn off. Not even his mother’s early passing had shaken him in the devastating manner that he was experiencing now.”

“Sloane was old school, at her ripe old age of twenty-six. More Lynyrd Skynyrd, Foo Fighters, and Snow Patrol. Less Bieber, Lovato, and Gomez. She enjoyed them all. Sloane just loved true rock. Heart was her favorite band.”
