A Mark In the Road Book Launch Celebration with Angelique Burrell
If you love young adult thrillers with a hint of sweet\nromance and some speculative fiction elements thrown in, I have just the\nconversation for you. Today, Angelique Burrell and I discuss her debut YA\nthriller. We talk about her writing process, her submission and querying\nprocess and she shares a few tips she\u2019s learned along the way. \nWith an English\nteacher as a father and a librarian as a mother, it's no surprise that\nAngelique grew up loving to read. Now, she teaches high school English and\ncreative writing in a suburb of Chicago, working to bring her love of reading\nand writing to high school students. She is blessed to have a supportive\nhusband, daughter, and son, who don't mind her binge writing, an extended\nfamily who always encourage her creativity. Angelique and her husband Walt love\ntheir home in Illinois, but their hearts are forever hiking in Lake Tahoe,\nCalifornia.\nAngelique\u2019s debut\nnovel is entitled A Mark in the road.\nEvery tire track\ntells a story. At least that's what accident experts say. And there's no better\nexpert than eighteen-year-old Mason. \ufeff\ufeffMason dreads the skid marks left by\nbraking tires. Every mark - every near miss, dead animal, injured person -\nplays like a soundless documentary in his mind. When Mason's on-again-off-again\ncrush Addie begs him to drive cross-country to help her move, he must face what\nhe thought was his greatest fear - the open road. But a tire mark left near a\nmissing woman's car on the Loneliest Road in America changes everything. \u200bAs\nMason searches for clues, he and Addie drive closer to trouble and risk losing\neverything. Can his strange gift finally serve a purpose? Can he race against\nthe clock and drive 2,000 miles before the skid mark disappears\nPurchase links:\nAnderson's\nBookshop: https://www.andersonsbookshop.com/book/9781957656199\nAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/Mark-Road-Angelique-Burrell/dp/1957656190\nConnect with Angelique at the following links:\nWebsite: https://www.angeliqueburrell.com/\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aburrellauthor/\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/aburrellauthor\nVisit\nwww.everyday-excellence.com and use promo code Inspirational Journeys to get \n10% off any\nproduct on the site.\nSubscribe to\nthe 540 Writers Community for free, if you need some writing accountability,\nand you want\xa0 to participate inwriting\nworkshops.
