Every year about this time I reorganize my bookshelves, and it always reminds me of what an absolutely insane ride my life has been for the past few years since starting my author journey. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined having my words published in English, let alone a dozen or so foreign languages, and it always blows me away to see my pretty foreign editions just chilling on my shelves like it’s no big deal. Also on display are some of my most treasured possessions, including the very first printed ARC of #BadRomeo that my publisher presented me with on my first trip to New York (with a totally different tagline than the final version 😜); a signed copy of the book which inspired my love of reading when I was 11 - The Outsiders (gifted to me by someone who started as a reader but is now a dear friend, ‘cause clearly, she just gets me); as well as a collection of amazing gifts and mementos from readers all over the world. So, now that I’m all sappy and thankful, I’ll give each of you a big virtual hug, then run off to write for the day. After all, #DoctorLove isn’t going to finish himself. (Or maybe he will. He’s very horny right now. 😂) Hope you all have a spectacular week! 💕💕💕 #Shelfie #InternationalCovers #StarcrossedSeries #MastersOfLove #AuthorLife #AuthorsOfInstagram #LeisaRayven https://www.instagram.com/p/BsoUyKNhc0A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ap8c3gdn36on
