Well, my friends, you definitely heard it here first… simply because I can’t keep the excitement in. This is exclusively for you before the official release goes out tomorrow. I’ll let the press release below speak for itself! In answer to your unspoken questions…
Why? Because it seemed the absolutely perfect next step in my authorly career. To get professional help with the whole publicity thing, I mean!
And how? Well, I first ‘met’ Cameron on air at Siren FM nearly a year ago and we’ve been talking ever since. So it seemed a logical progression to link up more officially. And before you go off making all sorts of random assumptions, I give you a sneak peek at the press release that’s going out tomorrow. Rock on!
And I’m still me, obviously. I still love and truly value all your wonderful support and will be returning it just as I have in the past. Just in case you were wondering… nothing has changed, except there’s one more person on Team Nicky. Love y’all!

When she’s not writing, she’s a wife, mother, occasional knitter, and regular contributor to The Midweek Drive show on Lincoln’s Siren 107.3 FM.
Sophie’s Turn and Sophie’s Run have both received great reviews. “The books are captivating, intelligent and a whole lot of fun,” said Tilbury. “We’re excited to be working with Nicky and helping new fans around the world to discover her books.”

CONGRATULATIONS, NICKY!!! This is awesome news! I’m so thrilled for you!
Thanks, Brandee! Cameron is incredibly enthusiastic about spreading the word and that’s simply wonderful support for me. (Plus he’s read the books and swears blind he loves them, even though it’s not his usual reading material… so that’s even better!!). Very excited at this end, and thank YOU for stopping by and commenting. XXX
Fabulous!
🙂 Thanks!!
Wow, just found this! So that’s what you meant by announcement! Woo hoo – congratulations!! (Too many exclamation marks, but who cares!!!) xx
Exclamation marks ROCK! I’ve had to cut them right down in my books but in comments on blogposts, I think they are PERFECTLY acceptable (as is All Cap, LOL). Yup, that’s what I meant by announcement. Hooray! Thank for sharing in the joy, you rock!
Congratulations Nicky!! So exciting!! xx
Thanks so much, Heidi! XXX Mwah!
Congratulations! Great news indeed! Not quite sure what it means – are they your agents? Not publishers, I guess, cos you’ve already got that, but it just sounds wildly exciting! You rock goddess, you!
Morning, Marina! Thanks for your comment. 🙂 Cameron isn’t an agent, as such, but a publicist. Someone to help with spreading the word by sending out press releases, setting up interviews, networking, and keeping the world informed of all things related to Rock Star Romance ~ that kind of thing. Someone to shout for me on my behalf. 🙂 Rock stars have publicists, or so I gather… LOL! I’m very excited about this and curious to see what happens next….
Ooooh, even more thrilling! Now you can coolly say to Bon Jovi ‘ I’ll have my publicist talk to your publicist about setting up a meeting, ok?”
Yup, that’s exactly right. Now there’s an idea…. *makes note to get Cameron on the case* LOL! 🙂
Nicky, that’s great news; you’re a veritable one woman army, but now you’ll be a one woman army with a touch more time on your hands and professional support behind you, congratulations! xx
Thanks so much, Yasmin! Not sure about the one-woman army ~ I do love and truly value all the lovely support I get from (and hopefully also return to) all you amazing author and blogger friends of mine! But it seemed a good idea, at this stage, to connect with somebody who could reach places I can’t, and who may have guidance and advice along the way. Thanks for your wonderful message, and wishing you a rocking day too. 🙂
Congratulations, Nicky! xx
Rock on!
