What's new with Ashleigh?

I know I've been talking about it forever, but Friday marks the end of the Inkfort Press Publishing Derby. Out of 100 participants, I am one of the 48 authors who wrote, edited, and published a book in 120 days. All month, I have been asking if you can figure out which book is mine.

Well, I decided to turn it into a contest! I will be giving away a free copy of my book to everyone who guesses which is mine.


How to play

Visit the Inkfort Press 2023 Derby Page and scroll through the books. I will give you two clues to find mine.

  1. The books are listed by genre. I experimented wiht a different genre for this book.
  2. Within each genre, the books are listed alphabetically. Mine is neither the first nor last in its list.

When you think you know which book is mine, fill out this form:

The form will close early Monday morning, before I send out my next email. Although you can only guess one book, you have the option to change your answer at any time before the contest closes.

In Other News

Over the next few weeks, I will be making many changes to both my newsletter and my website. The first change is my biweekly newsletter.

As you may know, I currently send out four newsletters each Wednesday: one updates you on Hartfield Chronicles while the other three are either book deals or updates to our Choose Your Own Path story, depending on the week. Starting next week month, I will be adding another newsletter: book deals and updates for middle grade and children books. This newsletter will also alternate with a fourth CYOP story.

As a result, I have decided to separate my newsletters. For those of you who subscribe to several or all of my newsletters, this means you may be receiving daily emails from me. I will be honest. This "What's New With Ashleigh" section that I include in the beginning of each email? Unless something major happens, it will probably be the same all week. (My life just isn't that exciting.) But your daily deals will be different, so go ahead and scroll down each day.

And if you're only subscribed to one email and want to receive them more often, you can sign up for them here!

He's a NYC Billionaire. My best friend's brother. And the father of my daughter.

Nick Pope, Sienna's older blue eyed, totally ripped, completely off limits brother.

It's been years since he left town.

I thought I'd never see him again.

Losing Sienna drew us together for just one night.

And then he was gone, for what I thought would be forever.

But now he's back...more handsome and sexier than I remember.

And he has a proposition...for me.

There is definitely still an attraction between us, but telling him about his daughter now could ruin everything.

It's just a story. Right?

Driven from Salem, Massachusetts, at the height of the witch hunts, a coven calling itself “Sohm” has found a new home in the forest outside of Cooke’s Creek, Vermont, next to William Fletcher’s humble farm. Within those woods, revenge will be theirs.

Soon after their arrival, strange events begin to happen.

Fields smell of death.

Livestock are slaughtered by unseen hands.

The water turns bad.

The church-going townspeople begin to turn on each other.

A diabolical being beyond comprehension has been summoned.

What was once a peaceful hamlet of God-fearing people has turned into a sadistic community of deception, backstabbing, and violence.

Will good triumph, or will evil permanently take root?

She quickly realizes the only way to get this guy off her friend's back is to beat him at his own game.

Micah's Girls


Micah's Girls
A Single Dad Romance

Iris

If I have to listen to the neighborhood Karen gripe about her HOA rules one more time, I'm going to lose it. It doesn’t help that she's trying to push me out because she has a thing against singles. In her opinion, the neighborhood should be filled with cookie cutter couples who have two point five children and a purebred dog. No cats, and certainly no single women. I’d move, but I'm too stubborn to back down now. Besides, there’s a new neighbor joining the HOA. Maybe we can team up against Karen …

Micah

With Lisa gone, it's up to me to raise Hailey. I manage to find a nice place that I can afford in a good school system, but the head of the HOA is arguing with me at every turn. She’s constantly accusing me of bringing strange women home. I don’t know where she got the idea that I'm some kind of gigolo, but all I want is a good home for Hailey. I can barely handle one four-year-old girl, let alone the throngs of adult women Karen expects at my door! At least my new neighbor seems to sympathize …



Deadly Tides


Deadly Tides
A Misty Pines Mystery

A missing surf legend. Waterlogged clues. Can he trust his gut instincts to end the wave of murder?

Sheriff Jax Turner is learning to live again. Holding tight to the hope of reconciling with his FBI agent ex-wife, the wary man is determined to keep his focus on his coastal Oregon community. And after a concerned brother requests a welfare check, Jax is troubled to find the absent surf shop owner’s tracks lead to a pool of blood.

Now investigating a potential homicide, Turner chases a tip from his former spouse about a severed foot found on the beach. But when a torrent of leads links the victim to a politician's son, a jealous competitor, and a get-straight program for youth, the steadfast lawman fears layers of lies and secret agendas will keep him from stopping a vicious killer.

Can he unravel the fatal agenda before he’s the next corpse to wash ashore?
