Three years ago today I received the "you've got cancer" call, which makes it my three-year Survivorversary and no coincidence that my book is releasing on Tuesday. My hope is that one day, no one will have to imagine "what if."
Until then, hopefully you can all enjoy Only a Chapter. #FirstNovel

Number three for #SingAlongFriday is "Dream On." Originally by Aerosmith, but I'm providing a cover version that I think is exceptional (as covers go).
This song is used for a pretty pivotal moment in Only a Chapter, and if you don't know, you should read it to find out.

There are only four more songs left for #SingAlongFriday. So, I'm going to count it down with No. 4: "Shivers" by Ed Sheeran. Which three are left? If you've read Only a Chapter, you might be checking them off in the included song list, or pick up a copy so you can follow along for the epic finale.

This week, we have "Between the World and You" by The Hawk in Paris for #SingAlongFriday.
We all have those times when we need someone to stand between us and the world. Clare was lucky enough to have a whole host of friends and supporters in her journeys.

For this week's #SingAlongFriday, we have Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain." This was one of the first songs I selected as a Chapter/Part title because it perfectly coincided with an epic breakup on a rainy night.

For #SingAlongFriday this week, we have "Where the Light Shines Through" by Switchfoot. This one really hit differently after I had surgery and had more scars, but I know that "the wound is where the light shines through." 🩷

This week's #SingAlongFriday is "Taking Over Me" by Evanescence. I think this song really speaks to the way the dreams are used in Only a Chapter.

On this July 4th, I'm sharing a song for #SingALongFriday that wasn't in my book: "Use My Voice" by Evanescence. "Whether you like it or not, you're gonna take what I got, If we can't talk about it, we'll just keep drowning in it...I will use my voice."
