I'm Publishing A Book!! | Noel Becomes Ecstatic + Giveaway!



Exactly what the title says!!
 It is a different writing project than the one we've discussed a few times- that one is still in revision...


 I'm so excited you guys!! I'm going to let myself finally let go of those insecurities about my writing- and I'm going to publish my first book!

 I know that I'll probably always be at least a little insecure about my writing- but that's because it's something I made and put my heart into. So it's a big step to let it go and let others read it. (Remember the freak out session with letting a Beta Reader read it? Because I do!)


FEAST YOUR EYES!!



Title: The Poet of the Heart

Author: LaNona Walker

Publication Date: June 20th, 2019

Pre-order here: Amazon

Add It To your Goodreads Wishlist here

Format: ebook, kindle

Genre: poetry, short stories, anthology, collection


[About: People can fade away, rose petals can be crushed and things can be lost, but at least you’ll remember how it was. The Poet of The Heart is a poetry collection that touches everything the heart can feel, hope for, cherish, and even regret. In a collection of poems ranging from romantic to heart-wrenching, Noel Walker dives into her passions and writes from the heart. Fragmented pieces of dreams and losses combine to bring you a touching series of stories that have deeper meanings in their rhymes and lyrics.]



Yes, my name is LaNona (la- ''no''- na) but my middle name is Noel- so I used that name when starting my blog. I had multiple reasons for doing so.

But there are several authors with the name Noel Walker, so I have to use my actual name- which definitely no one else has lol.
So as mentioned in my blog banner, to celebrate my official publication- I want to give you guys a giveaway!!

There will be three winners because I want each of you guys to have a big chance to win!


Prizes for the giveaway (each winner will receive the same):


  • A copy of The Poet of the Heart (since it's an ebook, I will send it to you through email)
  • A Coffee Mug from Noel's Mug Collection (this one is going to make me cry)
  • A special Bookmark from B&N (which I'm only doing for you guys, otherwise it's so expensive I never shop there)


a Rafflecopter giveaway


I am offering ARCs to anyone who's interested in exchange for a honest review, so if you don't win there are still chances to get a copy!

 So it looks like Books with Noel will be getting an extra page to do with my writing projects, and I will be getting on some more social media platforms (such as Twitter or Instagram)!


Guys. I'm actually publishing a book!!
(Is it a normal reaction to laugh and cry at the same time??)

While this isn't the Scifi novel I'm still writing, it is a book that I spent a lot of time at different moments in my life writing on and editing to make my poems better.

I've come to realize I'm not the best with expressing my thoughts and feelings through talking, I do better writing them- hence the insecurity and fear that I had to get over to make it even this far! (Also another reason why I love blogging more than vlogging...)



I just want to say thank you to everyone reading this, because even if you didn't know I was writing a book- you're here to see and celebrate with me!

Thank you all for reading, have an awesomely lovely day!!

P. S. I promise to update you guys next time, instead of just springing it on you that I'm publishing a book in a few months lol😅

Library Love | 1st Post

Hi guys, so my friend Lindsi @ Do You Dog-ear? did a post that I thought was really cool and I would want to start doing. Basically whenever I go to the library, I share in a blog post what I got and hope to read!

Scythe by Neal Shusterman | Review + Q & A

Hello lovely peoples! I have a book review to share with you, and at the bottom (after the review) will be a little Q & A section. Because my friend Desara also nominated me for the Sunshine Blogger Award, and I feel bad about not answering her questions- because I'd already done the tag when my friend Tessa nominated me. (That was a mouthfull, Lol.) So book review first! *         *         *        *         *   Scythe by Neal Shusterman!! Synopsis: Thou shalt kill.
