Paranormal Romance Writer Lynn Rush Launches 'Awaited' - the Second Novel of the Wasteland Trilogy - and Announces Global Blog Tour

Paranormal Romance Books are Hot, Hot, Hot... and Blog Tours to Promote Author's Books Are the Hot Way to Promote New Novels in the New Book Publishing Industry


PHOENIX, May 4, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "From the first action-packed scene, AWAITED grabs you and doesn't let go until its awesome conclusion." ~~Caridad Piñeiro, NY Times Best-Selling Author~~

Paranormal romance books are hot, hot, hot … and blog tours to promote author's books are the hot way to promote new novels. Prolific Arizona author Lynn Rush (25 novels written) writes in the paranormal and launched Awaited, the second novel of the Wasteland trilogy on May 1, 2012 online at Amazon.com and other websites like All Romance E-Books. Next week starts her global blog tour. Rush is the genre-breaking author of Crescent Moon Press's (New York City, NY) newest category – New Adult . Rush says she writes paranormal romances for the New Adult audience whose ages range from 18 to 24. While New Adult fiction may not be the "hot and heavy" romance featured in novels for adults, it's a touch warmer than the "sweet" romance of the young adult novels.

"There's a lot that can happen when you're eighteen or even twenty five years old. The fact is that those same events feel very different at that age than they do when you are twelve years old – or forty years old," explained Rush. "Because I write Paranormal romance, sometimes my characters are centuries old - but their human contacts are in the new adult age range."

The Global Blog Tour starts on May 7, 2012. Look for Lynn Rush on these blog sites:

About LYNN RUSH

You can find the author at book signings around the USA and at home in the state of Arizona and get a chance to talk demons, guardians and more paranormal lingo with the award winning paranormal romance novelist. Her tours are listed at www.LynnRush.com

Driven to write, Lynn Rush often sees her characters by closing her eyes watching their story unfold in her mind. Book reviewers say that her plots are well developed, and the writing is strong and full of artistic details – stunning in both characterization and her action-packed storylines.  A prolific author who began her writing career in 2008 now has more than 25 novels to her credit. Six are currently under contract with Crescent Moon Press.

Lynn Rush is a pen name that is a combination of two sources – Lynn, the first name of her mother-in-law, who passed away and Rush – since the author is a former inline speed skater and mountain biker.   All of Rush's books, including "Wasteland," are dedicated to Lynn, her namesake. Rush holds a degree in psychology from Southwest Minnesota State University and a master's degree from the University of Iowa. Originally from Minneapolis, Rush currently enjoys living in the Arizona sunshine by road biking nearly 100 miles per week with her husband of 15 years and jogging with her two loveable Shetland Sheep dogs.
