Brighton Publishing announces print release of

“Age/Sex/Location: Love is Just a Click Away”

by Denise Kawaii

Denise Kawaii captures the challenges of finding hope in the midst of turmoil, and love through the click of
a mouse

CHANDLER (AZ)—Brighton Publishing LLC is pleased to announce the print release of Age/Sex/Location:
Love is Just a Click Away by author Denise Kawaii. Readers will be forced to strap-in for this emotional ride
through frustration, heartache, pain, and—ultimately, redemption. Age/Sex/Location: Love is Just a Click
Away is currently distributed in print through Ingram, the world’s largest book distributor, and is available in
both print and eBook format from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other leading book retailers worldwide.

When her fiancé, Steve, dumps her at the altar, Jo ends the chapter on one life and starts the first page of
another. As she closes her office door and begins surfing the Internet, her
fervent hope is that something, or someone, may be capable of removing her
thoughts from her overwhelming suffering.

Propelled by the false courage of alcohol and pills, Jo eventually signs into
an Internet chatroom where she finds comfort in the kind and understanding
words of someone known only as “Navyman2000.”

Soon, she begins confiding in Navyman2000 and finds out he is a sailor
stationed on the opposite coast who is studying for the submarine service.
His encouraging words begin to lift Jo out of the plummeting life she has
found herself in, but her emotional scars are still fresh…and deep.

As Jo’s decisions begin to threaten her own mental stability, she finds that
they have also started to drive her business down a path to financial ruin.
Her life has now become more about survival than living. Yet, despite her
habit of telling half-truths and her constant denial of her addictions,
Navyman2000 continues to meet with her online.

Jo soon finds herself smothered by the tenderness of a man she’s never met
and running from the possibility of a new love. Now, she must face the all-important question: Is Navyman2000
her deliverance or…another nail in her emotional coffin?

“Denise Kawaii presents her readers truth-in-fiction as she propels her heroine through the swirling, emotional
waters of the modern age,” said Kathie McGuire, director of Brighton Publishing LLC. “Ms. Kawaii cuts
through the clutter of circumstance and delves deep into the emotional core that motivates the heart.”

Denise Kawaii is an accomplished columnist for Yahoo™ and The Examiner and a regular features contributor
to industry publications in California. She was born in Portland, Oregon, where she currently resides with her
husband and son. This is her first novel.

So, the book is out and in print! I received several copies myself last week and am happy to report that I've had a couple of people tell me they ordered it from their local Barnes and Noble bookstore. I am very much looking forward to seeing what readers think of it, and so far the response has been very positive.

If you are looking for something to read and you happen to pick up Age/Sex/Location, please do send me an email or submit a review online. Your comments are keeping me fired up while I work on my next novel, Adaline.

S.E Anderson's Celestial is here!

I am so excited to tell you guys about a series I've been reading! The Starstruck series follows a rather disorganized mess of a girl as she traipses across the multiverse with aliens. Sally gets into SO many interesting situations, and these novels are packed with snark and wit that keep you turning pages and wanting more. Celestial, Book Four in the series will be released October 9th, and I'm SO blessed to be a part of S.E. Anderson's launch team! In Celestial, Sally is still trying to get back to earth with her friends Zander, Blayde and Nim but something goes horribly wrong and they end up lost on a strange world where Sally is mistaken for the local's goddess! I can't wait to read and review this latest installment in the Starstruck series. S.E. Anderson is a young writer brimming with charm, and I know if you pick up her books you'll fall in love.

Traffic and Triumph

The spring and summer are always really hectic for our family. We own an outdoors-focused business, and unfortunately that means that when the sun is out there is hardly time to write anything. My neighbor yesterday asked how "that journaling stuff" was going, and I must have looked absolutely dumbfounded. "Journaling?" I asked. "Yeah, you know, writing in books or whatever." Long story short, it gave me instant lessons about two things. First, that my neighbor doesn't really pay attention or remember the details of any conversations that we've had over the years. And second, that I need to find the time, no matter how crazy life is, to put some focus back on my writing. My third book has been sitting, half edited, since March. It's about time that I got back at that monster, and what better way to do that then to do what all great writers do when they have a project looming... procrastinate by updating this blog. I'm glad I did log...

Books, Babies and More!

Life in the Kawaii household has been a maddening whirlwind of changes, events, growth and expansion. Age/Sex/Location is now deep within the publishing process, and I am very excited that Brighton Publishing is handling the grunt work in making the novel ready for the commercial market.  Right now it is being combed over by an editor or two, and I look forward to getting recommended edits back in the next few weeks. Along with the new novel in my life, it appears that there is a new reader on the way too!  Mr. Kawaii and I are expecting our first little reader, and he/she should arrive sometime mid-May.  Trying to figure out pregnancy, what kind of parents we want to be, and how we are going to juggle kids and managing our own businesses adds a new set of weights to an already delicate balancing act.  Hopefully we'll figure things out and come out the other side no worse for wear. I hope that all of you are doing well in your own lives and that you are growi...
