Oh, I understand. They call it “debut” simply because with the new pen name, I went in cold to the bookstores without my previous sales to back me up. That’s sort of a marketing terminology thing. But I’ve been very open about it! I also wrote a couple of books for teens under the name Jax Abbott because I didn’t want kids to pick up my R-rated adult novels. Anyway, thank you for your terrific blog!

ATLANTIS RISING is breaking bestseller records for a debut book - thank you to every single reader who took a chance on a new author!!

I don't read your blog everyday but it is on my newsfeed. I was surprised to see the above entry on the blog as I knew you were Alesia Holliday with more than a few books under your belt.

Nalini’s books are brilliant!!!! I love them, too. I just wanted to say that I’m so thrilled and grateful for all the attention and add that I do make it pretty clear that I’m also Alesia Holliday. :) All of my websites link to each other. I’m so thankful for all of my readers in comedy and my new paranormal readers and that people took a chance on a new paranormal author in a big way. Atlantis Rising squeaked onto the USA Today list at the bottom, but my son was happy to point out that GREEN EGGS AND HAM “is way higher than you, Mommy!”
best,
