Interview with Cambria Harrington!

Hi everyone! Today I have an interview with a young Frost reader who has written and published a short story of her own. Cambria Harrington is 14 years old and the author of A Journey Begins.

Welcome, Cambria! Ooh, I like your name, by the way.

So, tell me a little bit about A Journey Begins. What's the story about, in one or two sentences?

It's a story about four teenagers whose parents sacrificed everything so their children would grow up to be powerful magicians strong enough together to defeat the Dark King. 

How long have you been writing?
I have been writing for as long as I can remember but my parent's say I was about 4 years old.

Nice! If you were stranded on a desert island, what are three books you'd like to have with you?

Can I have four books?

1) Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling
2) Deltora Quest: The Forests of Silence by Emily Rodda
3) Frost by Kate Avery Ellison
4) Warriors: Into the Wild by Erin Hunter

Dawww. I'm so flattered to be on that list. :) Are you currently writing anything else, Cambria?

Yes, I am currently working on the second book in The Chronicles of the Four series.

Tell me three random facts about yourself.

 I love:

1) Drawing
2) Animating
3) Spending time with friends 

Thanks for answering a few questions, Cambria, and good luck with your future writing!

OF SEA AND STONE is available!!


Hey guys! Exciting news! The first book in my newest series, Secrets of Itlantis, is now available for Kindle and Nook!

Woohoo!!

You can grab a copy for your Kindle here or you can grab a copy for your Nook here.

Here's the summary:

All her life, clever Aemi has been a slave in the Village of the Rocks, a place where the sea and sky meet. She’s heard the stories about the fabled People of the Sea, a people who possess unimaginable technology who live below the waves in the dark, secret places of the ocean. But she never dreamed those stories were true.
When a ship emerges from the ocean and men burn her village, Aemi is captured, and enslaved below the waves in Itlantis, a world filled with ancient cities of glass and metal, floating gardens, and wondrous devices that seem to work magic. To make matters worse, her village nemesis, the stuck-up mayor’s son Nol, was captured with her, and they are made servants in the same household beneath the sea.

Desperate to be free, Aemi plots her escape, even going so far as to work with Nol. But the sea holds more secrets than she realizes, and escape might not be as simple as leaving.


I'm so excited that it's finally here. I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

The Faucet of Ideas

Sometimes I wish I could turn off the faucet of ideas, just for a little while, until I could get the ones waiting in line written.

Every once in a while someone asks how I get my ideas. I don't think any writer knows, really. They come to you. Sometimes in dreams, sometimes while you're driving down the road or having a conversation with a friend. Sometimes they introduce themselves as characters, sometimes it's a single image, sometimes it's the bigger framework of the story, the concept.

The ideas won't leave me alone.

Of Sea and Stone comes out soon, and I'm already working on the sequel, which is still untitled, as well as a completely new and different series. Yes, another new series! I'm up to my ears in new stuff. I'm really excited for these new stories. Still, it's hard to say goodbye to familiar worlds, and leaving the Frost was difficult and emotional. But I'm happy to get to play in some new places now, and I felt like Lia and company deserved some happiness for once, so I was glad to give them an ending.

As soon as I finish something, though, the ideas come flooding in and they're all clamoring to be written.

It's the best kind of exhaustion.

Coming Soon! OF SEA AND STONE!

Okay guys, some news!! Sorry for the long radio silence. I've been working like mad on several really exciting projects. And I have news!

First, there's been a title change. I was previously calling the new book Sea Captive, but the new and final title will be Of Sea and Stone.

(Add it on Goodreads!)

It will be #1 in a brand-new series, and you'll hear a lot more about that in the upcoming weeks, and get to see the cover, and all that good stuff! I'm doing a cover reveal with Xpresso Book Tours, so if you're a blogger and you want to participate in that, I'll have a sign up link available shortly.

EDIT: Here's the sign-up link if you would like to participate in the cover reveal for Of Sea and Stone!

Second, I'm currently in the middle of revisions for newly-christened OSaS. Ack! Revisions are hard and make me crave chocolate and never getting out of bed. But I'm slogging through them, then my lovely editor will have a second pass at the novel, and then more revisions and then proofing and formatting. I should be done with the book by sometime in early Feb. I'll give you an idea of the release date a little closer to them, and you can always sign up for my new releases newsletter or click on my Amazon profile and subscribe under "stay up to date."

Third, Of Sea and Stone is coming out in February, so stay tuned for more information, teasers, and excerpts in the upcoming weeks. I'll also be participating in a "book blitz" to spread the word about the new series, and I'll have a sign up eventually for that as well, so again, if you blog and want to participate, stay tuned because I'd love to have you.

Fourth, I'm working on a new and secret project in between revisions for Of Sea and Stone. Am I crazy? Probably. Do I love this new project? YES YES YES. It is lovely and weird and really cool. There's magic and hot guys and cool worldbuilding and, of course, all kinds of delicious secrets and mysterious things. I hope you guys like it. It's not a very long piece, maybe novella length, and the start of maybe a series of stories set in the same world and following several characters. I'm not sure yet, it's all very in flux right now, but I am excited about it and I think you guys are going to love it.

Thank you to every lovely person who has written me in the last few weeks about my books. It always makes my day. You guys are the best.

~Kate

Good news! BREWER is available early for Kindle and Nook!

So, thanks to my intrepid editor Dani and my proofreader Charles, we got Brewer prepped and ready waaaaay earlier than I'd anticipated.

That means it's available for sale NOW!

You can get it at:

Amazon

or

Barnes & Noble

Hope you enjoy it, my dears. The next book slated to come out is SEA CAPTIVE, the first book in a brand-new series that I'll have more information on shortly (and a cover reveal). And there is at least one more Frost story in me, an Ann/Korr novella. And maybe more. We'll see!
