Welcome Me Home!

My new home site is up and live! Go check it out!!!

http://annsnizek.wix.com/ann-snizek 

I'll still be here. After all, this is where the Rambling Voices speak to me and you. So, keep an eye on new projects and other amazing news on my new home site, but stay tuned here for future ramblings!


Each of the page tabs on the new site have information, but they also have pages under them (drop down) So be sure to click on everything.  Also, there will be some modifications. My prices listed for Author Visits will come down. I followed a template and got crunched for time. LOL.

Drop by and take a look, let me know what you think (contact me), and check back at least in the next week or two to see the updates.

New Release: Resurrecting Gavin

A tragedy realized. A boy displaced. His fight to restore his sanity. Can Gavin’s mind be resurrected? 

As a three month resident of the Pembroke Psychiatric Center following the dismantling and tragic events leading up to the school shooting, Gavin Ferguson thinks he is well on his way to healing until his inner self takes a detour leaving him a relative stranger in his own mind. 

Will Gavin be able to find his way back to himself and return home with his family and friends, or is resurrecting his mind beyond the bounds of possibility? 

*Resurrecting Gavin is a companion novelette in the Evan series, following the novelette Saving Gavin and precedes the full length novel, Inventing Evan.*

Review

I found Resurrecting Gavin to be a well written companion that can actually stand on its own. While the reader can certainly understand more depth, Kimball does a wonderful job of developing this story with the strength of character needed for any story no matter the length. 

I give it 4 stars.

Thank you Vanessa for providing me with the opportunity to review your book for you before the release. 

Ann Snizek goes to school…

...Well, several schools actually!
