Welcome to my website. I’m grateful that you’re here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, I’m slowly checking off the list and my website is finally here! Still a work in progress but we all have to start somewhere, right? I also have an email address, so feel free to send me a note and let me know if you’d be interested in a newsletter. It’ll be a while before I get to that level, so for now, this website and social media are where you’ll get any news and updates. But I’d love to connect with you. So please either send me an email (authorlindab@lindabmartins.com) or follow me on Facebook (@LindaBMartinsAuthor) or Instagram (@lindabmartins_author). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you haven’t yet picked up my first book, Obviously, Olivia- you can grab a copy on Amazon in ebook, paperback or read it free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription. If you take the time and read the book and enjoy it, please leave me a review and promote on your socials (and tag me!). I can use all of the organic help in the world to find the readers that will enjoy my writing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for updates, I’m busy working on book 2 in the series and it’s coming together. I’ve seen a first blush of the cover and I can’t wait to reveal it! It’s going to be a struggle to keep it under wraps while I continue to work on the draft. I hope to have it edited and ready to publish by December (I’d love for it to be sooner but I’m a wife and mom of three kids that are heavily involved in their extra-curriculars and I work full-time also. So the saying ‘life is busy’ is an understatement!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, I’m hoping you’ll stick around and drop me a note. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
