L2L2 Publishing is ecstatic to introduce you to our newest author, Deanna Fugett.

Author of YA Dystopian with an underlying message of hope, Deanna adds a powerful book to our publishing house. Ending Fear: Book One of the Gilding Lands Series is incredible. We cannot wait to publish it.

This is one author whose career you want to watch.

But first, here is a little more about her:

Deanna Fugett, a most-of-the-time stay-at-home mom, works as a Preschool Teacher’s Assistant one day a week. All of the other days, she focuses on writing as much humanly possible. Wife of fourteen years to her husband Chad, she is blessed to mother four wonderful and hyper children. They have a cat named Buttercup, and a dog named Westley. (Oh my gosh, who doesn’t love that?)

Deanna resides in Denver, Colorado and volunteers at her church. Family is important to her, so thank goodness she has lots of family nearby. She thoroughly enjoys the thrill of writing edgy fiction and hopes it will impact people’s lives in a positive way. She was published at the young age of six in a local newspaper and is excited for the amazing opportunity to be published again. It only took twenty-six years.

She enjoys English Toffee Cappuccino with hazelnut creamer, and her favorite shows are Arrow and Once Upon a Time. She belts out tunes while doing dishes and will never turn down a hug.

Welcome to our publishing house family, Deanna!

Meet Amy Brock McNew. Author. Blogger. Fighter.

Former nurse and martial artist.

Amy doesn’t just write speculative fiction, she lives and breathes it. She enthusiastically explores the strange, the supernatural, and the wonderfully weird. She pours her guts onto the pages she writes, honestly and brutally revealing herself in the process. Nothing is off limits. Her favorite question is “what if?” and she believes fiction can be truer than our sheltered and controlled realities.

This wife and mom is a lover of music, chocolate, the beach, and cherry vanilla Coke. Her home is a zoo, filled with teenagers–both hers and those she seems to collect–two dogs, a cat, and various fish and amphibians. Strangely enough, her kids are the ones who have to tell her to turn the music down.

It is her firm belief that everyone should have a theme song.

Originally from Arkansas, Amy currently resides in Indiana. She and her Taekwondo-instructor husband are constantly acting like overgrown kids–and loving every minute of it. She longs for the day when her husband retires, so she can write her adventures of love and war on a back porch overlooking the ocean.

In flip flops.

Join us in welcoming Amy Brock McNew to Love2ReadLove2Write Publishing!
