It's here! WIP: The Movie!






I can't even tell you have excited I have been about this! It's early, so I have only got round to a few entries so far, but I am having a blast reading them all! Thanks to all who have participated, and of course, to my awesome co-host, Rachel!

It's time for me to introduce you to the characters from my - as yet untitled - WIP. When I first started this blog, my WIP was different, so this might confuse some of you (sorry about that!).


This is Leah Walker, my MC. Technically, she is a little young, but she looks perfect! Leah is a physiotherapist for an American soccer team, but she is actually an English girl with a, let's say, colourful past.

Radleigh McCoy is the ridiculously good-looking, not to mention exceptionally arrogant soccer player who challenges Leah in every way possible.

 This is Freya Phillips. Freya is Leah's best friend and roommate. She works as a coach for the soccer team, and she is both very kind, and totally wild!

This is Will Carter, another of the team coaches. Will has a very obvious thing for Freya, but ... unfortunately, his brain doesn't realise it for a very long time lol!
Bree Collinson. Bree is the wife of one of the soccer players, and another of Leah's close friends. She is sexy and ditzy, but there is slightly more to her than meets the eye.

My soundtrack list for this story is freakishly long, so I decided I would just pick one song. It's a song that describes Leah's backstory very well, and hopefully it gives a little insight into who she is.





Hope you are all enjoying this casturbation (LOL that word is so wrong!) blogfest! Don't forget to hop over to check out the other entries!

  1. Mmm..Radleigh McCoy. Very yummy indeed. I knew he looked familiar. That guy for Step Up is smoking hot and I love your heroine choice. I don't watch the show, but I see her a lot on promos while I watch Switched at Birth and Breakaway is such a good song. I really feel like I got a good sense of your story with that one. A girl trying to come into her own. A very excellent choice :D

  2. Your MC looks a lot like mine - only the actress I chose is a little too old for my MC. Wanna trade? haha.

  9. That is one of my favorite artists right there. Love Kelly! And I totally remember when that song came out. Freshman year of college for me. It was kinda perfect cause I was going off to this huge new university. Lots of possibility. Yeah, great choice.

    And a story around soccer!?!?!? Ummm, yes please! I LOVE soccer. Just had a game last night actually :)

  15. This blog fest is so cool - and such a challenge, trying to find the different actors for the characters. Yours look awesome - and that is one good song ;)

    Plus, Radleigh McCoy is FIT. x

  16. Love your song!! And you're hottie male cast :) I also like how you cast a female wrestler - makes me wonder about that "more than meets the eye" description. Dying to know what that is! Thanks for hosting this - it's been sooo fun!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Great picks, I love Lucy Hale, I think she's so gorgeous! And yummy male characters too!! This is so fun, Kyra! Your book sounds great, just from the characters alone!! :D

    ReplyDelete
  18. Love your picks, and your book sounds great! I met Kerr Smith once. People really shouldn't be THAT good-looking in person! Plus, he was super nice and let me drool for a minute...or five.

    And that lady was a wrestler? Really? She doesn't look like one at all!

  43. Fun blogfest. I wasn't going to do it, but then saw a bunch of postings and looked like fun. So I pulled something together quickly.

    One thing I'm learning is I don't know most of these actor's names. Guess I need to watch more movies and TV.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I love this. Well done blog fest, and excellent song choice.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Thanks for the blogfest. :)
    Never heard of any these actors/actresses, but then again, I don't watch much TV.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Thanks for the blogfest! The actors aren't familiar but I like the sound of your characters, especially Bree. She's looks quite quirky and fun.

    And I love the song choice. One of my favourites!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Wow, look at all these comments! Thanks for checking out my WIP:The Movie, and for all your hard work in participating! <3

  50. I'm so sorry I missed this, I would've had a blast.

    Can you do another?

  51. This is awesome Kyra! Such a fun fest. I have to apologize for not playing along. My computer ended up with a virus Thursday and it took forever to get it fixed. A day away from the internet is a nightmare, but it was worse than that. *sigh* I did a shout out for this today tho, but I'm still super bummed I didn't get the time to put something together. I promise that next time I will avoid any potential viruses! :)

  52. What a fun idea for a blog fest. Great choices, Kyra!

IWSG: Performance anxiety

Welcome to the August edition of IWSG, hosted by the amazing Alex J.Cavanaugh ! So, as most of you know by now - because I haven't shut up about it LOL - my first novel, Game On, has been released. The blog tour officially starts next week (YAY!) but I find myself becoming increasingly nervous. A blog tour not only highlights my book, but me. What if people don't like me? What if my guest posts suck, and everyone thinks I'm boring? If I can't engage people in 300 words on a blog, they probably aren't going to pick up my book. And then there's the "what happens next" question. I plan to make Game On into a series, which feels a bit arrogant of me. I don't know how many people are going to like the first book, should I really be planning to keep the series going? So far, Game On has actually been incredibly well received. I've had great reviews, so maybe I shouldn't worry about people not liking it, but what if Book Two isn't as goo

With Tilly having a meltdown over the move, Madison and Dominic get into a fight that changes the entire nature of their relationship, causing Madison to ask herself a big question. Can she let him go? EEK! SO, whaddya think? :D Annnnd there's more! As I'm not doing a blog tour for this release, I still felt like I needed to

Dust It Off Bloghop!

Welcome to day one of the Dust It Off Bloghop, hosted by Theresa Paolo and Cortney Pearson ! This hop is all about the WIPs you wrote, and then shelved! Okay, so I am teaming up with Clare Dugmore for this one, because back in 2006 - yup, we've known each other THAT long lol! - we started to write a book together. Unfortunately, other commitments got in the way and we never finished it - but even so many years on - it's still something we remember fondly, so we're going to dust it off for you! The first day, May 3rd: We want you to post a 1-2 sentence pitch (Great way to practice pitches) about the shelved WIP. Here is the pitch Clare and I came up with: For best friends Caitlin and Tori, their first acting job out of Uni opens up a whole new world for them – unfortunately, it wasn’t the world they were expecting. When the strains of adult life and tangled relationships threaten to ruin their friendship, they are forced to take a look at what’s really importan
