After a lengthy hiatus, I’m back on the virtual block! A combination of personal challenges, novel edits and exciting projects have pulled me away from blogging. It dawned on me last week, after receiving a caring message from a friend, that I really MISSED interacting with my blogging buddies. You guys make the blogosphere an amazing place and I will do my very best to reconnect! If you haven’t already, find me on FB, Twitter & Instagram, where I’m most active!!
I’m in the final draft stages of my debut YA fantasy novel, Architects of Illusion! Over the past several months, I participated in The Great Discontent’s #100DayProject, releasing sneak peeks of the novel’s magical setting via Instagram in collaboration with Biltmore Estate! Step into a world of myth & mystery HERE!
I’ve also been working with an amazing creative team to create an innovative album campaign fusing video graphics, epic music and custom narrated storytelling! The result is UNCHARTED, a visionary reimagining of Greek mythology and ancient history, where the mystery behind the world’s most extraordinary discovery comes to life through the collaborative efforts of graphic designer, Koke Núñez Gómez, recording artist, Aeralie Brighton, and author Samantha Redstreake Geary, under the influence of Immediate Music & Imperativa Records‘ This Is Epic Music Vol. 1.
Unravel the mystery HERE, and YOU could bring home a signed This Is Epic Music Vol. 1 via co-founder & president of Immediate Music, award-winning composer, Yoav Goren!
IWSG, a community of brilliant writers led by Alex J. Cavanaugh, meets the first Wednesday of every month. Visit the Insecure Writer’s Support Group website and database! You’ll find everything from writing to marketing, along with encouragement and support!

That’s sure is exquisite artwork! It amazes me you put so much time and effort into matching all that media together. I can barely keep my writing projects straight. Welcome back!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Funny thing – you wrote “You had me at Amy Schumer.” I literally clicked over to my post and re-read everything looking for her name in the body and the links. Finally I realized you must have meant the first gif of the girl saying “Yes!” I had no idea who that was. It was just the best and cutest gif I found of an excited “Yes!” I had to look her up, so thanks for letting me know who she was. 😉

Hello Sam! Great to meet you! Your projects sound so amazing! No wonder you’ve taken a long hiatus from blogging. We all need to do that from time to time. The support we get in the virtual world is hard to beat, though, and we miss it when we’re offline.
I want to welcome you to the first challenge of the revamped WEP! Sounds like you might already have some Spectacular Settings to share with us. You’ll find the WEP community very supportive of your projects.
So looking forward to your entry on August 19. Any further questions, just flick an email to myself or Yolanda or leave a comment on the WEP site.
Denise 🙂

You’ve been very busy! Lots of interesting projects going on. I’ve been catching some your 100 day project on Facebook. That’s a huge undertaking. I haven’t been blogging either. I just can’t right now. But welcome back and congrats on all your projects ❤

Keeping it interesting, eh? You’ve been missed. Way to get out and mark your territory on other social media platforms. I’m forever boggled as to how to balance it all.
