Hi everyone :) With my book still being in editing, and having a break in my own writing, I decided to pick up a book I've wanted to read for quite some time now: Wonder . Just to give a background on the book itself (in case some of you have not heard of it), the story follows a 10yr old boy who has a very rare genetic condition. This condition morphs his face due to lack of bone structure, causing him to look differently than others. I will be honest. I'm not usually one to read about things that are "real." Sure, The Clique Series , 50 Shades of Gray , etc., but when it comes to me actually going to a store and picking these types of books up myself, it doesn't happen that often. Just like the books I write, I enjoy reading about fantasy and adventure. My mom was talking to me about this book and how she wanted to read it too. We watched a documentary about a family who this book was based off of, and that's what peaked my interest. Now, I'

Hi everyone :) Today was a very fun day. It's my birthday :D The day itself started out great! When my husband got home from work we went and played some street hockey. I didn't wake up until he called me on his way home, so breakfast was only an IdealFit Chocolate Peanut Butter protein bar. We played hockey for an hour today and it was hot! I did have my IdealFit Peach Lemonade BCAAs with me, so my body really appreciated that. As much as I love to write, fitness is also a huge part of me. After we got home, I went down to my parents' house. My mom made my favorite meal (pork roast with buttered noodles). On top of that, my sister got me a cake from my favorite bakery, Keystone Bakery. Needless to say, I had to have some birthday cake (which came home with me, too). After dinner, my mom and I went and coached gymnastics. When I did make it back home, my hubby was already up and about. I ended up eating again with him, and of course that meant more

Big news!! :) I now have my own personal website! You can find the link at the end of this post. With my fanbase growing I thought it would be a good idea to expand and give everyone different places to follow me. Even though I only have 3 books on the market, I have more books and stories waiting to be written. On top of that, Book 2 for my Dark Moonlight series is still in editing, and the final book will start to be written soon, too. I have a few other stories I'm brainstorming. Once I have completed my Dark Moonlight series, I'll be able to really focus more on the storyline and figure out which one will be next. I really can't thank you all enough for your outpouring love and support over the last (almost) year. I hope you all enjoy reading my books :) As always, be sure to follow me on Social Media :) Instagram: NMWilliamsAuthor FaceBook: NMWilliams2018 Snapchat: NMWilliams2018 https://nmwilliamsauthor.wixsite.com/mysite-1?fbclid=IwAR1eCky2CsUDRQMeu

Next Friday (May 24) I will have officially been an author for 1 year! This year has just flown by and it's crazy for me to think it's been this long already that I started my journey. I couldn't have done this without all the love and support you all have given me. I will forever be thankful for each and every single one of you! :) In honor of my 1 year anniversary, I am giving away an autographed copy of A Coal Miner's Wife! This is the first book I had published. It is very special to me since it is about my life and my journey of becoming a coal miner's wife. In order to enter, you must head on over to my FaceBook page (see below), and follow the directions on the post itself. I will be going Live on FaceBook at 4:00pm EST on May 24 to announce the winner.

Hi Everyone :) I have decided that I am going to walk a total of 46 miles before September 13.  For those of you who may not know, I hold a special place in my heart for THON. THON is a charity that I am completely passionate about. I have seen first hand just what the money raised for THON and the Four Diamonds Fund does.  THON is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world! Penn State students come together every February for a 46 hour no sitting, no sleeping dance marathon held at the Bryce Jordan Center. As a Penn State alum, I can honestly say that this is without a doubt the best thing I could have ever participated in. I am still very active in THON today and am always bringing awareness about the cause. We dance so no parent ever has to hear the words "your child has cancer" ever again. Since 1973, THON has raised over $100M For The Kids (FTK)! I have seen first hand the impact this has on families. I have met our THON families. They are the

Good news, everyone!! :) The second book to my Dark Moonlight series has now been sent to the editing stage! From the book cover to the story itself, this process can take several months. We are looking at the release date for this book to be early next year! I know it seems so far away, but everything has to be perfect before a book can get released. Depending on what my editing team finds, I may need to go back and change some things up (and possibly even change some of the storyline). It's really a back-and-forth process. I am not going to release the title of the second book, but you will all know it soon enough! Once the book has been sent for it's final editing round, I will release the book title then. It's going to take a few months before it does reach the final editing, so hold tight! :) In the meantime, check out Book 1, Dark Moonlight: Lunar Rising! Skye's story is one you won't want to miss. Full of senior year emotions, friendship, and roma
