Pre-Order Ninja School Mum by Lizzie Chantree

Banner for the book Ninja School Mom by Lizzie Chantree

Today, I’m participating in the blog launch tour for Lizzie Chantree and her new book, Ninja School Mum. Isn’t that a cool title?  And how about the cover—very snazzy!

The official release date is January 30th, but you can pre-order below. I’ve already reserved my copy and look forward to diving in!

Since this is the first time Lizzie has been on my blog, let’s get to know her better through a quick Q & A:

How do you celebrate when you launch a new book?
I jump up and down a lot! 🙂 I don’t usually do too much as my family are all a bit bewildered by the whole process. It’s hard to explain the emotional attachment you have to the stories that have taken so much time and energy to write. Launching them into the world for others to read is pretty scary!

So true, and I don’t think that ever gets easier. I do like your enthusiasm with the jumping up and down, LOL. What’s the best way to market your book?
Networking. Making contacts and actually interacting with them. Don’t just bombard people with marketing, get to know them and tell them about yourself and your writing.

Speaking of writing, what is your process? Are you a plotter or a pantser?
I’m a panster. I have a basic idea of the story and work out chapter ideas and then I make it up as I go along! The story unfolds to me as I write it. It makes the process so exciting, as I feel like I’m reading the story while I’m writing it and I can’t wait to see what will happen next in the story.

I definitely relate to that. I’m a panster too. What is your favorite color?
Any shade of blue. It relaxes me and I find it inspiring to look at. I love to sit and write by the sea.

Great choice. Blue is my favorite too, with green a close second. How long did it take you to write Ninja school Mum?
It has taken about ten months to write, edit, proof and get Ninja School Mum ready for publication.

BLURB:
Obsessive-compulsive  school  mum, Skye, is a lonely  elite  spy,  who is running from her past whilst trying to protect the future of her child. She tries hard to fit in with the other parents at her son’s new school, but the only person who accepts her unconventional way of life is new mother, Thea.

Thea is feeling harassed by her sister and bored with her life, but she suspects that there is something strange about the new school mum, Skye. Thea has secrets of her own and, although the two become unlikely friends, she hesitates to tell Skye about the father of her own child.

Zack’s new business is growing faster than he could have dreamed but, suddenly, he finds himself the owner of a crumbling estate on the edge of a pretty village, and a single parent to a very demanding child. Could he make a go of things and give his daughter the life she deserved?

When three lives collide, it appears that only one of them is who they seem to be, and you never know who the person next to you in the school playground really is.

  1. Wonderful cover and the blurb sounds great. Good luck with your launch, Lizzie. It struck me as interesting that you call yourself a pantser but actually lay out your chapters. I do the same, but call myself an outliner. Ha ha. I love how we all find our own way of doing this wonderful thing called writing! Thanks for the interview and intro, Mae. 🙂
